Best Horizontal Handhelds of 2024

The year 2024 saw the release of numerous horizontal handhelds, making it challenging to choose just one as the best. To simplify the process, the decision was made to select the best Linux handheld and the best Android handheld of the year, with the winners being the RG40XXH for Linux and the Retroid Pocket 4.06H for Android.

Linux Handhelds

  • 📺 The RG28XX from Anbernic is not recommended due to its small size, tiny D-pad, and poorly designed shoulder and trigger buttons.
  • 📈 The Miyoo A30 was initially overlooked but has become a viable option with the release of Spruce, a custom firmware that greatly improves its functionality.
  • 🤩 The Anbernic RG35XXH is a highly pocketable handheld with quality of life features like rubber pads, but it has been somewhat phased out by newer models.
  • 📊 The RG40XXH is a direct improvement over the RG35XXH, with a bigger 4-inch screen, stacked shoulder and trigger buttons, and the same SOC as other Linux handhelds, making it a great option.
  • 📁 The TrimUI Smart Pro is a unique device that offers immense power and a wide range of emulation capabilities, but lacks L3 and R3 buttons.

Android Handhelds

  • 📱 The RG556 is a comfortable handheld with an AMOLED screen, but its sticks have cardinal snapping, which may be a drawback for some users.
  • 📺 The Retroid Pocket 4 Pro is a highly regarded handheld with a plastic body, smaller screen, and more performance than Anbernic Android devices, making it a great option.
  • 🐶 The RG Cube has a unique 1x1 aspect ratio screen, which may not be ideal for most retro consoles, but it can still provide a playable experience with the right filters and settings.
  • 📺 The Retroid Pocket Mini is a portable handheld with a powerful SOC, but its small screen and big bezels may be a drawback for some users.
  • 📺 The RG406H is a complete handheld package with a good screen, enough power for most PS2 games, and comfortable design, making it a strong contender for the best Android handheld.
