There’s now a cheaper Retroid Pocket Flip 2 available, but here’s why you shouldn’t buy it

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority TL;DR The Dimensity 1100 edition of the Retroid Pocket Flip 2 will go up for sale later today. With the 72-hour early bird discount, it costs $50 less than the Snapdragon 865 version. The D1100 is powerful enough for PS2, but the SD865 has better driver support.

The higher the dimension, the greater the number of directions you can stretch your ellipsoid in, and the more options you have for wha
