Unfortunately, we only have design images available yet, no official specs. That’s our favorite screen size for retro games, and it is the screen used in the most recent from Miyoo, the Mini +. Which is exactly what we would have guessed. The name “Miyoo 355” was also mentioned, which suggests a 3.5 inch display. The new Miyoo Mini Flip is a compact clamshell handheld console.

Miyoo mini retro dodo update#
Update May 18, 2023: New images coming from NITTRX show the future Miyoo Mini Flip as a working test unit. So let’s take a stroll down fantasy lane and consider the Miyoo Mini Flip. Knowing their history and ability to deliver quantity or in a timely manner… I wouldn’t get your hopes up just yet.īut as per usual, it is exciting to imagine the possibilities. Recent design images have leaked on Discord, leaving us to believe that Miyoo intends to add a new product to their lineup. So if you’re still hoping to pick one up, we at least know it’s something Miyoo is actively trying to bring back to life.For those in the handheld community excited about clamshell designs, it would seem that Miyoo is considering a Mini Flip. And it seems that those are coming at a regular pace now.īut I know the appeal for many is the teeny tiny size of the original Miyoo Mini. Personally, I think the Mini+ is way more appealing than a Mini. With Miyoo’s ability to produce consoles at a reasonable pace (lack of the ability), don’t hold your breath.īut as per usual, the possibilities are exciting. But it does show that Miyoo is actively working on it. This photograph does not confirm that the Mini will return anytime soon, or ever.
The colors and brightness in those screens seem varied, which is why we think maybe this is a test of different suppliers. Well, just yesterday, we saw a photograph sent in of those Aliexpress messsages* that shows a screen test underway.Īs we can see, Miyoo has a bunch of their Minis lined up with what looks like maybe a few different screens.
Found on Twitter seems happy to reply to messages on Aliexpress, so people ask them all of the time if the Mini will ever see a return.Īnd Miyoo has repeatedly said that they do hope to bring the Mini back, but it entirely depends on finding a new screen provider. Now I actually love it.īut there are many in the emulation community who never had a chance to try out the original Mini and were praying for its return. I was not very happy with my Mini+ when I received it, because the stock operating system was basically unplayable.īut it was the release of OnionOS that entirely flipped my feelings and redeemed this handheld. This new iteration used a 3.5 inch screen, improved triggers, and a more comfortable fit for those with bigger hands. Miyoo’s response to screen supply issues was to create a slightly larger version in the Miyoo Mini +. Miyoo had supply issues with the 2.8 inch screens used in the device, which was possibly going to end its life at the height of its popularity.īut with a small chance of it making a return, is that something we even want? Let’s dig into the details. We were recently alerted to some new information coming from Miyoo about their ever so popular Miyoo Mini handheld.Īs you may already know, our previous assumptions about this handheld were laid out in our ‘ is the miyoo mini dead forever‘ article, and things weren’t looking good.
