Don't have it but at $90 it's hard to resist to upgrade my anbernic 35xx.
Community Reviews
The Mangmi Air X stands out as a thin Android handheld that punches above its price for PSP, widescreen retro gaming, and lighter Android or PC titles. The 4 gigabytes of memory, larger higher resolution 16 by 9 screen, and active cooling make it feel more capable and more comfortable than many budget rivals, and the form factor gets praised as especially easy to pick up and play. Battery life for higher end games lands around 2 to 3 hours, and stronger alternatives around the same price can offer more raw performance. It is a versatile choice if widescreen play matters more than maximum horsepower.
people who want a widescreen 16:9 Android handheld for PSP and other systems because commenters say the larger higher-res 16:9 display is a key advantage for games that support it, and it's expected to be great for PSP while also playing most modern Android games.
retro handheld upgraders coming from an Anbernic 35XX because at around $90 it's described as a tempting upgrade and RetroGameCorps called it a top budget handheld of 2025.
Android emulation tinkerers who like exploring PS2/GC and PC games on a handheld because one owner says they're actively pushing the upper limits of PS2/GC emulation and also running PC games via GameHub/GameNative, valuing the versatility of the widescreen display.
buyers who want a pick-up-and-play "fun tech toy" experience instead of a more awkward phone+controller setup because one commenter tried a Moto G + controller route and said it wasn't fun to use and they never reach for it, while the Mangmi design made them use it for retro gaming more often.
people building a controller-case + gaming-frontend setup because a commenter paired it with a Gamesir X2 Pro in a controller-case setup and used Daijisho to replace the Android home screen, saying the larger screen also makes Switch emulation feel better.
buyers who are strictly chasing maximum performance per dollar because one commenter argues the Air X doesn't make sense at its price point since more powerful, functionally similar devices exist within about $10.
people who already own a lot of 4:3-focused handhelds and don't care about widescreen versatility because one owner says they already have more than enough devices that can play 4:3 games, and they're only willing to accept the compromises if the 16:9 versatility is worth it.

How is the battery life? Abneric ones run own OS, this one is Android. Not sure if its better or not.
Link to old deals and reviews to see what you're talking about.

Frankly I just don't get the popular retro handheld YT chancels sycophanting certain brands (and the Reddit hivemind that echoes their ever word). They'll endlessly praise something like this but nearly ruined the RG DS (before it even launched), mainly for the fact it wasn't the most powerful device within a price point...yet this is excused for not being. The RG DS actually being a different beast to anything else out there, this on the other hand is merely an upgraded Trimui Smart Pro....the hundred and first horizontal handheld that can play up to PSP....wow.
Do I want a Mangmi Air X, sure. Does it make sense to buy, not really unless thinness over the RG406H is worth losing a huge amount of performance or if the upgraded screen over the Trimui Smart Pro is worth an extra $30+ (Android support is a major upside though).
