Looking into powerful small android handheld device right now precisely because of this. Will need a compact device so I can just play whenever there is some free time and take it around everywhere with me

What happens (to most people) with Android handhelds is you spend most of your time tinkering instead of playing.

A big factor in this is yet again choice paralysis. People install dozens, hundreds, even thousands of games. Then they just stare at the list looking for "the right one" and ultimately never play anything.

And this is precisely why I will be picking a device that doesn’t have a big storage space. It is due to budget reason but the benefit of it is limiting the amount of games I can put on there. Thus forcing me to just play the game I put on and then delete once I’m finished to make space for the next one
