Retroid Pocket Classic vs RG40XXV Stickless

So I know what the correct answer should be on paper but it’s not always that easy. I have the RG40XXV with the stickless mod and love it cause it’s well balanced with the buttons more in the middle of the unit vs more towards the bottom on the Pocket Classic. So I was wondering if anyone has used both and could compare them ergonomically on which is better to use. I’d prefer android and the extra power would be nice on the Pocket Classic. Also the screen is better quality even though for me it’d be the wrong aspect ratio I could probably live with that since it’d look prettier. My main concern would the feel if anyone has any opinions after using both that’d be great.

Odin 2 or Odin2 Portal vs Xbox Ally

So I had a Odin 2 Portal and loved it. Then I bought a Xbox Ally figuring it’d be an upgrade. I do emulation ps2/gamecube and below and it actually feels like a performance downgrade despite being better on paper. Am I doing something wrong or does anyone else think the Odin 2 is better? Besides performance the Odin2 Portal has a much better looking screen and just played on a friend’s regular Odin2 and even that screen looks better than the Xbox Ally. The Xbox Ally also lacks Hall effect joysticks which isn’t a huge deal but just another tick against it. The battery seems much better on the Odin2 as well. And lastly, android vs windows, android is miles easier as far as simplicity for navigation and setup. I have no issues setting up the Xbox Ally to my liking as I have a gaming pc but it’s like night and day as far as set up ease. What does everyone else think?

Download speeds starts off fast but lasts for like 1 minute then drops down to around 10KiB/s

I use a PIA VPN and when I start up Qbittorrent my downloads speeds are great but they drop to turtle speed after like 1 minute.

Issues with bypass

I use a plex server and family shares on it. If I turn on the vpn plex remote share stops working. If I turn on the bypass feature to bypass plex, it still doesn’t work. The bypass seems to do nothing.

Is the AYANEO Pocket Micro Classic worth the money vs my stickless Anbernic RG40XXH

Is the premium AYANEO Pocket Micro Classic worth the money? So I do have a Retroid Pocket 6 on the way and I already have an Xbox Ally so if I wanna play something that needs sticks I can use a bigger more powerful device. I ended up modding my RG40XXH and V to be stickless to be more pocketable plus to get the sticks out of the way and just play PS1 and below and I like it but it does feel cheap and doesn’t have the greatest screen quality. But being cheap also isn’t bad cause I also don’t feel like I need to be super careful with it because it is cheap and easily replaceable. But anyways, I’m very intrigued by the premium Micro Classic and have been watching some on eBay for while. It has more power which is kind of unnecessary when playing PS1 and below but it has no sticks and a higher quality screen although it’s a little smaller but the entire device is smaller. Does anyone have one? What do you use it for? How does it feel to use? Is it too small? And most importantly would you recommend one?

My listings, I’ve been selling video game consoles for about a year, they were getting 500-1000 views in a few days and now I’m lucky to get 50-100 in an entire week. And now when I click on list in other places; it doesn’t. My listings will only list to marketplace. I can click on the buttons for all the other locations and they show selected but when I reopen my listing like 10 minutes later none of them worked.
