This handheld is a few years old at this point and I purchased it knowing there are more powerful handhelds out there for the same price.I wanted this one in particular because of it's size and build quality as I intend to have it in my pocket most of the time. Also, I really only wanted to play up to 32 bit games. If these aren't specific wants for you, I suggest looking into other options.PROS:Good size to fit in my pocket without being too smallBuild quality and buttons feel greatComfortable to play in my medium size handsCONS:Screen isn't bright enough to play outsideStock OS isn't great and a bit time consuming to changeStock SD cards are poor qualityOverall, it's close to perfect for me. The main problem for me is that the screen isn't bright enough to play outside. I do have other similar handhelds, but this is the one I'll use the most.EDIT: Just discovered there is a hotkey to adjust brightness in the Adam Image OS I've been using (Power+L/R on Dpad). It does get bright enough to use outdoors. Also, I forgot to mention as others have that my item did not come with a screen protector as advertised.
