Make sure machine was turned off. Press and hold "L" and "R" buttons at the same time, then turn on the machine. The machine will boot into USB recovery mode (with blank screen). PhonenixSuit will detect and find a pending device automatically. Instant archiving:All simulators support instant archiving, with 9 archive locations for each game. TRIMUI has recently released the TRIMUI Smart console, which is yet another micro console to hit the retro gaming scene. Thanks to Gogamegeek for providing me with the handheld for review purposes.
Screen Issues Using integer scaling means the image is actual size on a pixel by pixel basis at which point this screen is even smaller than the GameBoy Micro You might notice that there are a few things missing from the exterior of the device. There are no physical controls for screen brightness or volume control, though a combination of keys can adjust those while you are in the operating system, while you can change the volume in-game from a firmware menu. There’s also only one set of shoulder buttons, which is a tough sell on a device that claims to support PS1 games. Playing with Power GameBoy, GameBoy Color, and NES games all seemed to run perfectly on the machine, and every SNES or GBA game I tried was totally playable with just a few trade-offs. On the GameBoy Advance side of things, I found screen tearing and audio hiccups, but it was never consistent. We’re talking about an issue every minute or so of play, which in the grand scheme of things is almost nothing. As per usual, we’re keeping an eye out. It’s still quite early on this one. But with the pace of things in 2022, it’s safe to say that things will go pretty wild in 2023.Battery-wise, I was getting a good 3.5 hrs. of play time before I was having to consider charging the console, which in my opinion, for such a small handheld, was fairly decent. One thing I did find to be very annoying was the music playing on the main menu screen. Even after turning it down within the settings, it would increase again when I came out of a game. However, within the settings, it still showed the music as being turned down. Hopefully, this will be resolved in a future OTA update.
To get a feel for how well the Trimui Smart can run, I tested out a variety of homebrew games for the NES, SNES, GB, GBC, and GBA. Trimui (pronounced ‘trim u.i.’, by the way) has seen a lot of success with their micro/affordable consoles, the Trimui Mini and the Trimui Smart. Specs-wise, the TRIMUI SMART is able to play entry-level retro games. As I mentioned before, up to PS1 is possible, though don’t expect massively demanding games from that era to play well. However, the PS1 games that came included (14 in total) played very well indeed. The likes of Sega and Nintendo Systems, as well as PC Engine games, all played as expected. Whilst the specs of the TRIMUI SMART may not be as powerful as the larger handhelds on the market, it’s not meant to be. Micro consoles are all about portability whilst still being able to play most games on platforms well up to PS1 (sorry guys, there are no PSP or N64 games here). This allows the SMART console to be an affordable option focusing more on portability. We expect that the internals will be nearly identical to the Trimui Smart device that recently came out… just in a totally different form factor and a much better screen.POWKIDDY Trimui Official Smart Handheld Players 2.4Inch IPS LCD Wifi Retro Video Game Console Open Source Portable Mini Console Due to the different monitor and light effect, the actual color of the item might be slightly different from the color showed on the pictures.
