X20 Mini Handheld Console- Review and Teardown

So this week we have another handheld console import from China. This time it's another "Fake Switch" console that went to the trouble of installing fake plus and minus buttons to give it that little extra special feel. Sadly they didn't go to the trouble of making good hardware...
Lets go ahead and unbox this thing, play some games on it, and tear it apart and see what's inside.
The SOC was an ATS-3603 which from what I could find says it's a 32-bit MIPS24KEc RISC , running at 450MHz. Not a powerful chip unfortunately.
I couldn't decipher the item number off of what I suspect is the memory chip. Part of the number seems to have been removed, and what is left did not generate any hits for me. Based on this looking like a Powkiddy J6 clone though I suspect it has 64 MB of DDR memory. There are firmware upgrades for the J6, might have to give one a shot and see if it works on this thing.
If you're still interested after watching this video, these are all over AliExpress, just search X20 Mini.
With the way AliExpress links seem to change on a whim, this may not work for very long but at least it's working for me right now, but don't be surprised if you click it and it brings up a pair of shoes or an SD card instead.

If you're into music/vinyl records, I just started a new channel that focuses on that type of content, so I can keep the focus here more on retro gaming and technology.
