The TRIMUI Smart Pro S is a horizontal Linux retro handheld with a 4.96-inch 1280x720 fully laminated IPS display, positioned as a budget widescreen option for PSP-era and older systems. Its Allwinner A523 and Mali-G57 MC1 improve Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, and PSP performance over the original Smart Pro, while TMR clickable sticks, larger triggers, active cooling, WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, and a 5000mAh battery round out the hardware. It delivers a bright screen, low weight, and strong value around $100, but weak ergonomics, small clicky controls, immature custom firmware, only 1GB of RAM, and no video output limit its appeal.
