Powkiddy X18 - Shadow Fight 3 gameplay

Powkiddy X18 Handheld Games Console 2-Player Video Game Machine 5.5-Inch WiFi

Hey guys,

Check it out!

The Powkiddy X18 is definitely not as powerful as my Samsung Note 10+. Its specs are CPU: MTK 8163, quad-core A53 64-bit processor 1.3GHz. Memory: 2GDDR3+16GB EMMC. It also has a 5000mAh battery. Which last me a couple of hours of usage.

Games like PUBG and Call of Duty mobile don't run that well on the X18. Although, I haven't tried it out again after I've installed clean Rom yesterday. When I was using the stock ROM, pubg mobile downloaded from Apkpure.com was really bad. So bad, I deleted it.

The good thing is that my favorite Zombie fps shooter games by Madfingers run smoothly on it. I don't really like many Android games, mostly because they don't have controller support. But, there are definitely some gems. A game like Shadow Fight 3.

I actually wonder if I can play the game as when I was using the stock Rom, I couldn't play without the Google play service. After I finally managed to install the clean ROM and the touchscreen works (it didn't work at first) I can play it now.

The Shadow Fight 3 can definitely be played with nice graphics and smooth gameplay. But, it loads pretty slow in between duels. And, the ability to remaps the buttons and play with the integrated controller is definitely a plus. Unlike the hassle, if you want to play with a controller on the mobile.

My favorite rally racing game, Rush Rally 3 also plays smoothly on the Powkiddy X18. I also love playing Need for Speed Most Wanted on it. You can play Asphalt 9 Legends but the lowered graphics are really disappointing. That's why I think, the GPD XD Plus, specs-wise, is much better.

The difference in specs also means, there will be a difference in price. Obviously, I can't compare it to my Samsung Note 10+ as it's almost 3-4 times the price. That's probably why the manufacturer had to consider if they want to add or improve anything on it.

Hopefully, when parts become cheaper, I'll like them to improve on the CPU and the GPU. At least good enough to play PUBG or Call of Duty mobile smoothly. They're pretty much the benchmarks of mobile gaming. A better joystick will be good too as the current one 'head' feels kinda flat.

Also, maybe add a camera or create a 4G or 5G version as most Android games need you to have internet access. Part of the reason why I hate Android games. I want the camera because I found out you can use Whatsapp and send voice messages or voice calls on the X18!

Imagine, using this to video calls your friend. I've actually been using it to message my family and friends. Even without the sim card (no sim card slot), you can connect to your Whatsapp account if you have an extra mobile account number. Pretty cool!

You can even use it as a mini Android laptop. You can check your emails, do social media, use it for taking notes in school, or whatever. I actually bought it because I want to use the Termux app. I can install Ubuntu 20 and use its terminal. Want a bigger screen? Use HDMI to link to your Tv or monitor.

The Powkiddy X18 at a cheap price is definitely one of the best Android devices with an integrated controller. A powerhouse for game and entertainment/social media console. Get it if you haven't!
