Hello BAFelton, I have a few questions:

1. Is the touch screen as bad as it looks on your videos? (talking about touch capabilities because on your videos I saw that you struggle just to unlock the device)

2. How is the battery life?

3. Is the nub analog or digital?

4. What is the WIFI quality (signal strength etc.)?

5. Oh and I saw that the speakers are in the back, doesn't your hands cover them?

Alright, this board needs a dedicated yinlips Ydp-G18 forum all its own.
Not hidden down here in the other consoles section.

Just gonna repeat this here....

n64 emulation is impressive

Maybe i will not need my wiz anymore...

 

[alexg141989]

Can anyone test out Conker's Bad Fur Day and WWF No Mercy on the n64 emulator for this device? If those games run full speed then I'm getting this thing for sure...

 

[LTStone]

I would like to know how well Perfect Dark or Goldeneye runs ..

 

[DrAltaica]

On the box it also says GPS... Is it true?

No.

still for $125 is pretty competitive with the Caanoo and Pandora.
The specs (1.2 GHz A9/ Mali-400 @ 400 MHz) are impressive.
But I don't understand how they forgot to add analog inputs...

You are saying that Yinlips cannot add analog controller if they wanted to?

My ydp-G18 is still in the mail so I can't be 100% sure. but going from Qbertaddict's teardown pics, the YDP-G18 does have an analog controller

public static final int SOURCE_CLASS_JOYSTICK

Since: API Level 12
The input source is a joystick. A MotionEvent should be interpreted as absolute joystick movements. Use getMotionRange(int) to query the range of positions.
Constant Value: 16 (0x00000010)
public static final int SOURCE_CLASS

See that API Level 12, that is Android 3.1.x.
There is no way for a pre Honeycomb Android app to read the joystick's position.
