The Miyoo A30 is Now a Great $30 Handheld

The Miyoo A30 has really come full circle: it has some excellent software options today, and it is regularly selling for $30 or less, nearly half of its price when it first launched. In this video I will show you how to install and configure MinUI and Spruce, two custom software solutions that really make the A30 a steal at this price.
