Best Clamshell

Miyoo Flip

The Miyoo Flip brings the beloved clamshell form factor back to retro handheld gaming with a Nintendo DS-inspired dual-screen design. The folding design makes it supremely pocketable and protects the screen, while the A133P chip delivers the same excellent GBA and PS1 performance as the Mini Plus. The community is actively developing firmware ports, and its unique dual-screen layout opens up interesting NDS emulation possibilities.
