TRIMUI Model S2 is a gaming handheld launched in . Runs Linux.

The TRIMUI Model S2 is a Trimui handheld in a micro horizontal form factor, designed for quick retro gaming sessions. Inside is the Allwinner S3, a single-core ARM Cortex-A7 chip running at 1.2 GHz, paired with 128 MB of LPDDR3 memory. It is modest hardware, best suited to older, less demanding classic systems rather than heavyweight emulation.

The 2.4-inch IPS screen runs at 640 x 480 with a 4:3 aspect ratio, a natural match for many classic games. A pixel density of roughly 333 ppi keeps the image crisp on such a small panel. Note that the display has no dedicated lens, only a screen protector.

For controls, the console offers a cross-shaped D-pad in the upper position, four face buttons and four shoulder buttons (L1, R1, L2, R2) arranged horizontally, plus a dedicated Menu button. There are no analog sticks and no rumble. Volume and brightness are adjusted through the menu, while power is handled by a physical switch.

The 1200 mAh battery charges via a bottom-facing USB-C port. Connectivity includes WiFi 4 and Bluetooth 4.0, and audio comes from a single front-facing mono speaker. The 8 GB of internal eMMC storage can be expanded with a microSD card for your game library.

The device runs Linux, and its modding policy is permissive, so users are free to experiment with alternative software and tailor the experience to their liking.

Ideal for: retro fans who want a truly pocketable device with a sharp 4:3 screen and simple controls for light classic gaming on the go.
