There's also the odin-2 (similar, but not oled screen) Odin 2 max refurb for £230 isnt bad - https://www.ayntec.com/products/odin-2
Odin 3 isn't out yet, starts shipping at end of November but that's likely to be a banger. Is a 6" screen.
Konkr Pocket Fit from Ayaneo is another option.
Retroid also have some new devices on the way but think screen sizes are a bit smaller.
What size you looking for and any budget constraints? A Steam Deck could be an option.

Steam Deck can do almost everything. Some Switch, PS3 and Xbox stuff is a bit of a struggle but it's a fantastic device for emulation.
How does every deal with multi disk games? I have some Amiga classics I'm playing and the manual disk change is pretty clunky. On top of that, I've had it where it's been unable to do either the eject or mount and had to restart the game. Is there a more elegant / reliable method for this?
Am using RetroArch on a RG476H, does that support it?
I'm pretty sure Retorarch does. It works with Retroarch on a Steam Deck and I don't think I did anything special with the default Amiga core used. There is also a method with Retroacrch where you can have individual profiles per game. So for say a 2 disc game you could set up Retroarch to be configured with two simulated drives and load each with a disc, I believe the config allows you to do that as part of the per game setup so it remembers the disc in each drive so you don't have to manually load each one. Then you could have a separate setup for a 4 disc game etc. Then Retroarch can be told to use the relevant setup on a per game basis so it will use that setup when launching that game. I did some googling to find this out and the method looks sound, but whdload is just easier.
Edit: It may be you have to select the PUAE core in retroarch, or download that core first if it not there by default. Then turn on whdload support in the core setting.
