If the tablet had a SIM slot I'd easily grab this and sell the controller to use my EasySMX M10 or Gamesir G8. Otherwise this is no better than pairing a good phone to one of the above controllers.
Not sure if I've seen one of these. Is there a way of getting steam on this thing?
It's essentially for emulation, u can do streaming game services and what not, plus android gaming 🫤
I don't know how well it emulates as not I'm really familiar w/it's proc, but a quick Google search shows that the 8 Gen 2, which is what I have in my Odin 2, trounces it.
That being said I'm sure it does quite well for emulation, and if that's your thing then this is a good price, well maybe it's a good price, I haven't looked into any comparisons between this and other handheld emulators in the same price bracket.

I've watched many youtube videos and website reviews, here's a TLDR on some stuff:
SOC is unclear, some say its the inefficient SD888 overclocked 20-30% (I take that overcloking makes it even more inefficient).
Many suggest just to buy a phone and the controller separately (Since this is just a 6.8" like most phones nowadays but more bulky and thick bezels).
I was thinking of this to also have a tablet but bezel are super big specially on the 4 corners that wraps circular.
Controller drains battery even if tablet is on standby so must either be unpluged or turned off everytime(Seems to be how android is designed).
Stuck on Android 12, can't find anything that it went to android 13.
Aspect ratio means you will have black bars in almost every game unless the program specifically supports it.
Missing many phone features like haptics so basically a better version of cheap tablets (Haptics are built into the controller so if you are looking for the cheapest tablet with haptics and stuff, this ain't it....heard from only 1 youtuber that Galaxy A9 cellular-version ONLY has haptics idk if true as I'm considering that too).
For this price, I'm consider ANBERNIC RG556 or Retroid Pocket 4 Pro.

This is a specific use case scenario for most people but I have had this since launch and the coolest thing I can say about this is that it is capable of utilizing the 120hz ultrawide option for GeForce Now given it has a 21:9 aspect ratio. Really awesome for game streaming on the Ultimate tier.
To each their own but if my opinion as someone with a lot of years in tech matters.
I got just the Kishi v2 Pro to try out with my new Samsung S24 Ultra and it was horrible, like Switch joycon horrible but worse, so overpriced and not worth it.
It didn't fit my phone with a case, and just the quality of the pad was awful.
I ended up just using a regular controller with bluetooth and it was a much better solution (and I got a better tablet)
It's basically a smartphone without the phone part with a telescopic Bluetooth controller you can buy on AliExpress for about $25. Nothing special.
This thing is useless in most cases when there's no Wi-Fi
Small correction - the Kishi uses a direct USB connection. No input lag or pairing issues like with BT. And you can charge your phone/tablet through the controller port.

Gamesir makes a $50 USB c phone controller that does exactly the same thing. Direct connection with no input lag and ability to charge phone while connected to the controller.

the bad part is that it's powerful enough to emulate many switch games but the 6gb of RAM are the only limitation
it is more powerful than the RETROID POCKET 4 PRO and ANBERNIC RG556 but the RAM basically makes them equal

The controller is pretty advanced. You can get it on sale for 80 on amazon right now. It's basically a backbone but might be better for some based on the ergonomics. Also this can work offline as you can play offline android games and emulators
