TrimUI Brick

The Verdict

The TrimUI Brick is a no-frills vertical handheld with H700 power. It's cheap ($60), it's simple, and it runs GBA/SNES/Genesis well — plus N64, PSP (lighter titles), and DS. The brick form factor is divisive — it's comfortable for some, awkward for others. No WiFi, no Bluetooth, no analog sticks. It's the bare minimum H700 experience.

First Thing to Do

1. **Install MinUI immediately** — Stock firmware is terrible

2. **Get a good MicroSD card** — Samsung EVO 64-128GB

3. **Load GBA/SNES/N64 ROMs** — These are the sweet spot

The Loadout

→**GBA:** gpSP (perfect)

→**N64:** Mupen64Plus (most games work, D-pad mapping for sticks)

→**PSP:** PPSSPP (lighter titles only)

→**DS:** DraStic (most games)

→**GB/GBC:** Gambatte (flawless)

→**SNES:** Snes9x (most games work)

→**Genesis:** PicoDrive (perfect)

→**NES:** FCEUmm (no issues)

→**PS1:** PCSX ReARMed (most games)

What It Crushes

→**GBA** — Pokémon, Fire Emblem, Metroid all perfect

→**Genesis** — Sonic, Streets of Rage flawless

→**SNES** — Most games run great

What It Struggles With

→**N64 without analog sticks** — Playable but not ideal

→**PS1 3D games** — Same H700 limitations

→**SNES SuperFX** — Star Fox will chug

Skip These

→**PS2/GameCube** — Not possible

→**3DS** — Not possible

Pro Tips

1. **MinUI is mandatory** — Stock firmware is unusable

2. **Vertical form factor is love-it-or-hate-it** — Try before you buy if possible

3. **No WiFi = no box art scraping** — You're stuck with text lists

4. **H700 can do more than you think** — N64 and DS work!

Worth It?

Eh. At $60, it competes with the Miyoo Mini Plus (less capable chip) and Anbernic RG35XX Plus (WiFi/Bluetooth). The H700 gives it N64/PSP/DS capability the Miyoo lacks, but the lack of WiFi, Bluetooth, and analog sticks is rough. If you love the vertical design and want N64, go for it. Otherwise, get an RG35XX H for analog sticks.
