The PHENIX experiment at the relativistic heavy ion collider (RHIC) finished data taking in 2016. However, large datasets collected in different collision systems (p+p, p+A and A+A) at different energies (√sNN = 19-500 GeV) during the last years of the detector operation are actively analysed by the collaboration and bring a wealth of new experimental results. This paper reviews the most recent PHENIX results on the light flavour hadron production, yields and angular correlations of the direct photons in heavy-ion collisions as well as on the search for the onset of collectivity in high multiplicity p+p and p+A collisions.
