Although no one answer the question from this thread [Real performance](https://forum.makecode.com/t/real-performance/6227), I found a related test(in Maderian) [https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/395000105?fbclid=IwAR3i-6yd2ZvTNEgjNUHcXxm6riqf5vZlyAqygDFFZoWR0d4O5RBMCvOsyA4](https://zhuanlan.zhihu.com/p/395000105?fbclid=IwAR3i-6yd2ZvTNEgjNUHcXxm6riqf5vZlyAqygDFFZoWR0d4O5RBMCvOsyA4).

You can find 4 short videos(about 30 secs each) showed that a normal game worked not very well.

I want to find a better hardware not use the emulator. Any suggestion?  
Can anyone help me to rank these hardwares? KittenBot Meowbit, Bridge & Bridge Arcade Shield, ELECFREAKS Retro Microsoft Makecode, micro:bit NewBit Arcade, Raspberry Pi Zero/3A+.

Thank you for your kindly help

The KittenBot Meowbit is cheap, but not very powerful. If you want the most powerful handheld, I would recomend the AdaFruit PyGamer.
