  • Hey all! Quick comment. Because of how bright the Mini's screen is, a lot of parts might look blown out especially when another device is right next to it. It was super difficult to capture two devices with way different brightnesses, but I can tell you that in person, it's not blown out at all, merely a camera and ISO issue.

    S23 Ultra performance for $340 is pretty amazing!
  • I’m glad you test fans noise. Noise is a very important factor to me with electronic devices. How a device feels, thermals and sounds is so underrated in YouTube reviews.
  • @shawn4451
    Was checking YouTube everyday for an early review. Love this!
  • @soloistcool
    Great Work man!! Thanks a lot for releasing the video so quickly after the arrival!! Hope you have a great rest of your weekend!
  • @SpiffyHandhelds
    Great coverage Joey! So excited for this one. Looks AYN really nailed it.
  • @KyleRuggles
    WHOA! You got it!!!! First time I'm seeing it! Let's see!
  • Really appreciate that I found your channel recently your in my top 3 and love that there is a first look finally very excited to hear your honest thoughts !
  • @codered7070
    Amazing overview, thanks for putting this together!
  • @InuGamiac
    Loving the first impressions, thank you for the video!! Everything looks and sounds great so far, will wait for your thermals judgement tho for the proper review!
  • @DrNZodd
    Im glad to finally see a video about this. I was one of the first 200 to order for the $30 coupon. Grabbed the mini pro model. Cant wait. I have the Odin 2 Pro and as much as I love it, it's still a little too big to bring with me when I go out. My biggest worry was honestly thermals. Vignetting doesnt bother me, only really notice it if im looking for it. Great first impressions video, looking forward to the full review!
  • @solidust573
    Joey left everyone at the starting gate with this one. Everything else seems to be sleeping at the wheel today 🤣 good stuff! 👍
  • Very helpful first impressions. Glad you were the first to get this handled.
  • @TakunHiwatari
    This is looking like that balance between power and portability that I've been waiting on. Just hope the temps don't end up being a deal breaker for me.
  • @HalAnime2
    Buying it for the Vita form factor with the performance, screw the haters. Vignetting is well known on new gen Macbooks and doesn't bother the majority of the population so it shouldn't be a dealbreaker. Though I'll say if you have an Odin 2 already, you probably wouldn't need this other than novelty.
  • @HybridWes
    Thank you Joey! I recently got my Odin 2 but love tech so I was curious about this.
