Mangmi Air Y Pro Review: The Best Vertical PS2 Retro Handheld Under $200?

The Mangmi Air Y Pro might be one of the most interesting vertical retro handhelds under $200. With a Snapdragon 865, a 4.2-inch IPS display, and enough performance to handle a good portion of the PS2 and GameCube libraries, it fills a pretty interesting spot in the market. In this review, I test the Air Y Pro across PS2, GameCube, classic retro systems, and more. I also take a look at the display, controls, ergonomics, battery life, performance modes, M Space 2.0, and how it compares with other vertical handhelds like the Anbernic RG406V. After spending some time with it, I think Mangmi got a lot right here. It isn't the flashiest handheld I've used, but if you're looking for a vertical handheld primarily for PS2 and GameCube without spending $300, the Air Y Pro is definitely worth considering.
