AYN Thor arrives Friday!
Discussion
Good to hear you're enjoying it. I'm currently on the fence as meant to pre order but forgot. Now not sure it'd arrive before I go on holiday, and don't want it dropped at the doorstep.
When did you order, and which shipping method? Heard DHL is much faster but some people get hit with import fees but not with 4PX but have to wait longer.

Thanks. Ordered on the 6th October and selected 4PX … Shipping was a bit painful When did you order, and which shipping method? Heard DHL is much faster but some people get hit with import fees but not with 4PX but have to wait longer.
few days stuck here few days stuck there ….No fees but honestly I would go DHL for my next order and risk it …
I know for a fact my Mrs would pay for faster delivery next time !

Jealous! I'm still waiting for mine to turn up - stuck somewhere between China and the UK. The downside of using 4px.
Which spec did you go for? I went Rainbow Pro.
Agree retrogamecorps is the best youtuber for these... although arguably he is not helping, my family are convinced I have an addiction. Given the number of devices in my collection, from gpd win (mini and max), steamdeck, many, many android and linux devices (and now looking at the retroid pocket 6 and odin3) they may have a point

Rainbow max also went for the grip the grip style case and screen protectors.

I've been thinking I should've placed an order ages ago as could do with one in the next couple of weeks but no hope of that happening so likely just holding off and place an order at the end of the month or middle of next month I reckon. That and keep an eye on ebay and the like in the meantime incase someone gets bored. Glad you're enjoying it though, does look quality.

When did you order yours out of curiosity? Wondering where I might get stuck if I ordered now.Which spec did you go for? I went Rainbow Pro.

Russ is the GOAT, no doubt. A few others are decent but nothing compares to the snack man.
They are addictive to play around with though, fun but addictive. I'm hoping the Thor will be my personal endgame device for a bit but who knows I've probably said that several times at this point. Hope you enjoy and if your family gets on your back a little too much that you have to slim down the collection to get more I'll take the Thor 😂

just finished setting it up just needs screen protector on now I’ll have to wait until I have a shower later haha !TechDweeb is my 2nd go to I suppose he just appeals to the lifelong nerd in me !
The Thor … Yeah it really is a great bit of kit … Still I might have one of the 2 screen Ambernics…
I have a soft spot for machines that just do one thing like the Ambernic RG34xx that I only use for GBA
