I’ve been playing Minecraft on my iPhone and am considering a handheld to play more comfortably. Any recommendations?

I have played it on the Sony Vita, Nintendo Switch, new 3DS/2DS XL, and Retroid Pocket 4. The retroid I still have not figured out how to map the controls well and it is a bit glitchy (using the android app version of Minecraft). So based on my experience…if you care about the latest OS and Minecraft version…the switch. If you don’t care about the OS or Minecraft version, the Vita was a great experience.

Have you considered a Bluetooth controller like the Gamesir G8 Plus?

The iPhone, if recent, is way more powerful than any of those other options. On Switch, the viewing distance is very short and it’s slow to generate chunks.
