I love when youtubers make videos reinforcing my poor spending choices
-
Love these casual videos with reflections and comparisons! So cool to see how well the Odin 2 has been received.
-
The battery life is genuinely incredible on this device. I just did a playthrough of Pokemon heart gold and I think I only had to charge my Odin 2 base once during the whole 25+ hour playthrough
-
This channel somehow manages to post the exact video I’m looking for every single time. I must say that for a beginner in the world of emulation, channels like this make starting this journey so much easier. I’m looking forward to getting mine soon!
-
I just ordered an Odin 2 a couple days ago!! Can't wait to put your guides to use!! Thank you for all your hard work with this stuff Russ!
-
literally setting up my brand new odin 2 right now watching your starter guide...
-
I picked one up based on your recommendation. I love my Odin 2. Your setup and update videos have been super helpful so thank you for that. Nice work man.
-
I used my tax break to buy the the clear blue Pro model and man was it worth it. During the Spring, Summer and Fall months, I work in places deep in the bush with little to no internet. I always have my switch and my laptop to play offline games but to have my entire emulation catalog at my finger tips playing as smooth as the Odin 2 does is just amazing. Well worth the price
-
man it amazes me how you put out quality videos so often, these are the types of videos that youtubers would typically release like twice a month and here you are making them every few days. bravo!
-
Mine just came in yesterday. I absolutely LOVE it! 100,000% worth the price tag.
-
Mine just arrived yesterday currently following your set-up guide 😊
-
Hey Russ, I love your stuff! I decided to get the Odin 2 after watching your videos, especially the Japan trip one. My wife and I are going to Japan in November and I wanted something portable for travel and this checked all the boxes. Thanks for creating such awesome videos!
-
Best purchase I made. Perfect for traveling. I call this my "Backpack handheld".
-
I just got my Odin 2 Pro, this video is perfect timing lol I'll be watching your starter guide tonight to finish setup
-
I had planned to upgrade my android handheld from the Retroid 3+ at some time in 2024, but when the Yuzu drama went down, and after Russ's last Odin video (titled "I freaking love my Odin 2") I said screw it and got an Odin 2 Pro. Its fantastic and I find myself wanting to play it more than my steam deck
-
I love my Odin2. Nice upgrade from the original Odin! Thanks Russ for your setup guides and recommendations!!
-
I was going to get the RP4 Pro back when preorders were running, ended up cancelling and grabbing a base model Odin 2 because of your great reviews and constant updates on the device, and I’m glad I did. I went with base and got the TPU shell, carrying case and tempered glass, I really can’t put it down, it’s just amazing.
-
Thanks for bring us high quality content, Russ
-
Saw this and ended up snagging one used today. It's awesome, just the right size and feels great. Thanks for coming back to something you already reviewed!
-
Great assessment. Just made 3 months with my unit last week and its been just as much fun tinkering it to my liking as it is playing games
