Buying guide
How to choose your AYN
Which AYN Odin should I buy?
The Odin 3 is the newest and most powerful. Choose the Odin 2 Portal for its AMOLED screen at a lower price, the Odin 2 Pro & MAX for the best value flagship performance, or the Odin 2 Mini if you want a more compact device.
AYN Odin vs Retroid Pocket — which is better?
Both run Android for emulation. The AYN Odin range leans premium — AMOLED screens, refined ergonomics and higher-end chips — while Retroid leans toward value. Choose AYN for the display and feel, Retroid for the lowest price per capability.
Can an AYN Odin play PS2 and GameCube?
The Snapdragon 8-series chips across the Odin range are among the more capable options for sixth-generation systems like PS2 and GameCube. As with all emulation, performance depends on the specific game and your settings.
What is the difference between the Odin 2 and Odin 2 Portal?
They share the same flagship Snapdragon performance. The Odin 2 Portal upgrades the display to a vivid AMOLED panel, while the standard Odin 2 uses a high-quality LCD.

About the brand
Who is AYN?
AYN made its name with the Odin — an Android gaming handheld that punched far above its price with a flagship Snapdragon chip and a genuinely great screen. The follow-up Odin 2 and Odin 2 Portal cemented AYN as a go-to for serious emulation on the move, with the Portal’s AMOLED display setting a new bar for the category.
Alongside the flagship Odin family, the configurable Thor extends the same value-led approach across multiple spec tiers. DROIX stocks the genuine AYN range — Odin and Thor — with warranty and enthusiast support across the UK, EU and USA.
