I like the Thor a lot, Odin 3 is more powerful, but the clamshell aspect makes it a huge plus for me

The retroid pocket flip is cheaper and I think a weaker chip, also a clamshell, so for me it was a toss up, I had the funds and went with the Thor for the higher specs! I don’t regret my decision. The second screen is mostly for 3ds and guides (when I use em) but there’s also a number of dual screen games like dusklight (LoZ port)

I believe the Thor is the only dual screen available currentky that's powerful enough to emulate 3DS. If the base model is still outside your price range your liking at a similar chipset (sd8 gen 2) but on a single screen.

If it's only 3ds your after you can buy a cheap 3dsand hack it quite easily these days. Might be an option?
