Simple But Functional Design
The EONI portable is made of simple and lightweight plastic, ideal for those looking for something practical to carry in their pocket or backpack. Despite the basic construction, the A-8290 model features a 4.8-inch TFT screen, with a resolution of 480×854 pixels, plus durable physical buttons (including analog) and extra controls such as menu, volume, and reset buttons.

There is also a headphone jack, AV connection for TV, USB-C charger included in the box, and a 1500mAh battery, sufficient for several hours of play thanks to the lightweight emulated games.
The version A-8298 is also available, featuring a larger 5.8-inch screen and a 1800mAh battery, for those wanting a bit more visual comfort without spending too much more.
Compatibility With Various Platforms
According to the YouTuber from the Mundo Unboxing channel, who tested the model live, the console “is definitely worth it for the price.” He claims that, despite limitations in the screen and construction, the portable delivers a fun experience, especially for those looking to save money or seeking a casual use option, such as on public transport or as a gift for children.
The portable runs smoothly with titles from various platforms, thanks to the G20-i processor, which is optimized for lightweight emulation. The console also features 16GB of internal storage (expandable via SD card), which comes pre-loaded with thousands of classic games.
Unboxing Content Surprises
Unlike more expensive models, the EONI portable already comes with several included accessories. In the box, you will find:
- 1x Console (A-8290 or A-8298)
- 1x Headphone
- 1x USB-C Cable
- 1x Wall Charger
- 1x AV Cable for TV
- 1x Instruction Manual
According to the review, even known brands like Anbernic or Retroid usually do not send as many items.
Basic But Functional Screen
The TFT screen of the A-8290 does not have the same brightness quality and viewing angle as an IPS, which can hinder gameplay in well-lit environments, such as outdoors. Still, for use at home or in covered places, it serves its purpose. The menu system is simple and intuitive, making navigation between available games easy.
A True Retro “Lifesaver”
Focusing on cost-benefit, this affordable handheld gaming console from Shopee is ideal for those who want to relive the golden era of gaming with minimal investment. For around R$ 150, the portable offers hundreds of hours of nostalgia with games that marked an era — and the best part: it comes ready to play, straight out of the box.
If you’re on a tight budget or want to gift someone a simple yet fun device, this model may be the ideal choice. It does not compete with premium consoles, but excels in its proposal to offer accessible and portable fun for classic game lovers.
