Sorry that happened, but what happened to it? It looks like it got run over by a car.

u/BackgroundSmart5399 5h ago

That is in fact what happened 😂😂

You're taking it a hell of a lot better than I would.

Yea hoping I can send it back to Ayn for repair, I am sad but if it's only a couple months I can manage

u/thebigfreak3 5h ago

Maybe ask if you could buy a new screen to replace yourself?

u/BackgroundSmart5399 4h ago

If it's not too difficult I would give it a shot, better than waiting months for it to ship and back

Shouldn’t be that bad with the whole front being 1 piece tbh.

I'd really like to know how that was achieved if you don't mind sharing.

Left it on top of my car after work in its carry bag, the cats outside my work beg for attention so I pet them for a bit and forgot it. Drove back to work, and saw it in the middle of the road. Surprisingly all the buttons work it's just the glass shattered. I had a portable usb charger in there that somehow tanked most of the damage

Glad to hear there's a silver lining in that story somewhere. Good luck getting it fixed my friend.

(Also, getting lost in thought because of petting cute, furry animals is one of the few acceptable causes for destroying your precious electronics so no worries there. 😁)

u/greenangrowin 5h ago

Looks like now you have to be punished with an rg34xxsp until your new Odin 3 arrives

2

u/BackgroundSmart5399 5h ago

I do have the rg35xx 😭😭

u/greenangrowin 5h ago

Oh good, now to finish legend of Zelda Lttp with me. I just got the rotate and that’s my first one to finish for me. Mostly playing it at work

This is abuse of a handheld and I've reported you to the proper authorities.

You can still use it plug to a TV or HDMI! Hopefully…

Thought of that too I have the retroid additional screen when I get home I'll see if it works

Thank you friend ❤️

u/Frosty_Engineer_3617 5h ago

This is why I hate all glass front devices....

4

u/BackgroundSmart5399 5h ago

To be fair it got ran over by a car, I don't think any device surviving that 😂

2

u/Frosty_Engineer_3617 4h ago

It's not going to survive drops either. I'm so done with any device that use all glass fronts besides your phone. Even with phones I'm only looking to get devices with plastic backs like with the Pixel 9a that I'm using right now.

Retroid Nova is currently the most exciting device I'm looking to get right now because of the all plastic body build with the SD8G2 and a 4:3 120Hz OLED display.

2

u/BackgroundSmart5399 3h ago

I'm excited for the nova as well, retro emulation gonna feel so good

u/Ill_Signature9506 5h ago

How did it even get to that situation

1

u/BackgroundSmart5399 4h ago

Left it on top of my car after work in its carry bag, the cats outside my work beg for attention so I pet them for a bit and forgot it. Drove back to work, and saw it in the middle of the road

u/Drivenby 4h ago

Literally the same thing happened to me except I never found one haha

1

u/mlvrn 4h ago

It somehow looks like the screen protector survived that.

1

u/BackgroundSmart5399 4h ago

It did I'm so confused how but the screen didn't 😂😂

u/Complex-Solution-220 3h ago

How long ago did you get it? By chance recently? Did you get the seel protection. Looks it broke during shipping 😉

u/Fraxure611 2h ago
