The one I used was the TCL 10 Pro, and I think my OnePlus Nord N200 5G would also trigger this. If you don't have a mainstream smartphone that requires CDMA-less setup, try asking support to flip the switch on your account.
*This could be a regional thing for what bands are used for what. I was in Florida's space coast area at this time.

Unfortunately this device got stuck on Android 8.1 but still all the latest games I tested runs quite well and very good for emulation.

When is this device getting its own specifications page on this site? I'd like to compare it to other phones on here.

So no you can't just get an extended controller to play all games, will be banned in PUBG and COD mobile.

The best mobile gaming set-up I've used recently was, February 2017 I got a second hand Moto Z2 Force with a Gamepad motomod, that was hands down the best I've used, emulators ran smooth, even in a couple of cases smoother than my Shield TV, and the gamepad was attachable with its own battery, the buttons were good too. Dedicated, I still have my old Gen 1 Shield, that was pretty good too.

This device looks nice!! Also I have seen a GPD before and got obsessed with it.
And by the way seeing this makes me want a Nintendo Switch :)

which gamepad do you guys recommend for my current devices listed below?:
PocoF1, Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact
Delivering to South East Asia, preferred location of the retail store too so I can visit.
Another thing: does gamepads comes with its own app to map buttons? I certainly hope so, zero experience in this whatsoever.

I prefer the GameSir T1s (best ergonomics) or the iPega 9055/RedSpider (best compact).
But I want there to be a JoyCon solution for phones, that is more comfortable than the GameSir and more compact than the iPega. None exists yet, but it could exist if they had a proper designer (or even an enthusiast like me) be given the opportunity from the people at either Razer, RoG, Nubia, Xiaomi, Meizu, Huawei, BBK, Nokia, LG, Samsung, or even Google.

Those so into mobile gaming already use these.( Mostly for emulators of psp, ps2, wii, gc, ds, gb etc). If phone companies arent making devices like this it just means there isnt enough demand.

I think overall build quality of even mainstream devices should be improved. Kid-friendly. Tamper-free. Yet still depend on the affordability of frail microSD cards for expandable storage. That means the flaps/slot/tray shouldn't be kid-friendly... this is why I even considered screws. This device is big, even if the actual slot is only one, there should still be room for faux-slots to store extra cards when not in use.
How big do you think the removable battery can be?

Soapy, 15 Jul 2019Now if the back plate uses screws, wouldn't that make it ha... moreYou could have a flap on the portrait-left (or horizontal-front) side of the device.
It would open a lockable flap for a battery to slot in, and be as waterproof as possible (rubber-gasket) and extra measures taken to prevent moisture buildup and prevention of short circuiting. That means probably clever circuitry and super-hydrophobic coatings. Using screwdriver to change a battery, basically means you can't change batteries when you're outdoors (I mean, most people don't carry tools out in the city).
These are a couple things LG didn't quite do with the G5. Those listed are some of them. And I think having the entire bottom panel coming off was worse from a pressure/durability point than a flap. Not to mention all the QC issues that plagued the G5's build quality.
Although I have to ask, if you are more lenient on the portability of the device, wouldn't that mean the device is mostly being carried around in a backpack? And wouldn't that mean, its usually less prone to torture than a mobile phone? I mean, I know my laptop suffers much less pressures than my phone, and that's because my phone is pocketable, travels everywhere, more constantly used and held by single-hands.
It would be wiser to invest some of those durability points, back into making the device cheaper/more mass produceable, or into other traits like performance. Basically, this Gaming Tablet isn't in the same ballpark as a Gaming Console (like the Xiaomi BlackShark 2, with the Removable JoyCons).

Now if the back plate uses screws, wouldn't that make it hard to replace the battery ? Yes, but better be safe than sorry.
How about the radical ring-like locking ears, lunchbox style ? If it's possible, we may have a gigantic rubber-lipped plastic flap (really thick/threaded hinges for years of durability) that opens a gigantic door at the side / bottom / top, as "battery slot" just how you would replace sim card tray. This will be faster than unscrewing the backplate I suppose.
