The ODROID-GO Super (OGS) is an upgraded version of the very popular ODROID-Go Advance retrogaming handheld. The LCD size has been increased from 3.5 inches to a 5 inch tempered glass display, and the resolution has been increased from 320x480 to 854×480 pixels. The battery has been increased from 3000mAh to 4000mAh allowing continuous gameplay for hours.
The OGS is pre-assembled at the factory instead of being a DIY kit. Support for faster USB WIFI+BT has also been improved. The micro-SD card slot has been changed from a friction design to push-push (spring eject).
An 8GB or higher capacity microSD card is required to install the operating system and games. Select a Starter Bundle option to get a microSD preimaged with the operating system.
