I got mine a few weeks ago. It came with a corrupted sd card out of the box. It would not boot passed the Anbernic logo. After buying a new sandisk 64 gig sd card and flashing it with the updated Anbernic firmware, it works like a champ. I’m hoping that the new Garlic OS that Black Seraph is working on for this particular device will solve a lot of the issues with PSP and Dreamcast. It he does hit a homerun with his custom firmware this could end up being the handheld of 2024 just like the Miyoo Mini Plus was for 2023. I can’t wait to find out. By the way, Koriki Batocera Lite is a rough ride. It’s not ready yet. I tried the Beta version and didn’t like it.
Sorry about the corrupted card. That really is a problem. I kind of wish they’djust charge $5 more and give us a good card from the beginning. Anyway, I totally agree with you. The custom firmware scene isn’t quite ready yet, but I’m really hopeful GarlicOS will become something amazing.
@@BoKnowsGaming I have a sneaking suspicion that the new Garlic just might out do Onion, if that’s possible. I can’t wait either, but I think Black Seraph is going to really take his time on this one so that the beta release will be damn near perfect.

Just ordered one. Mine cost me a little bit more $97 with taxes on amazon but for the price its still worth it. Looking forward to playing it when it arrives.
Mine should be showing up here tomorrow. Seems like it will be the perfect device to replace my retromini as my live in the glovebox at all times handheld. Cheap enough that its not a huge deal if it jusf melts or breaks from heat but powerful enougn to keep me entertained whenever i may need it
Nice! I like the glovebox idea. Maybe I should start stashing these in random places so I always have one available. 😂 It's a really great handheld. Happy gaming, friend!
I ordered the Arc S recently. Not that I need it, I do have a few handhelds already. But I grew up with Sega and love the Sega controller aesthetic. As for the remakes, if it's true Crazy Taxi has turned into a live service game it feels like a massive disappointment and I'm worried about the rest also becoming some cheap cash in attempt.
I read that the Jet Set Radio Future sequel will have Fortnite elements. So it's looking a little more bleak as it goes along. I feel like these companies set themselves up for failure because they try to eat into the market of these popular modern love service games only to find out that there's not enough people to go around to support at the level they want so they drop the service and write it off as a failure. I just hope they make a course correction before it's too late to turn it around
Hi! Thank you for the review. I’m late to the party but have one on the way! What is the game you were showing at about 0:45 please? Looks right up my street! Thank you!
AliExpress has this going for an unbelievably cheap price, picked one up today. Got the rg35xx but the lack of joysticks makes some games a little tricky to play
For those systems, no. I would go with the RG35XX H. They're both great though. I have a review on the RGB30 as well if you're interested. But I think the H is the best budget device of 2024 so far.
The only bad thing is when Ambernic updated it there introduced micro stuttering on the screen. Also I would say the Dreamcast definitely does not run like a dream. Not one Dreamcast game I tried ran well without framskip on. I was definitely a little disappointed with mine.
No. Not at all. What OS are you using? If you're having continuous problems, I would recommend installing muOS or Knulli and seeing if that fixes the issue.
You're welcome. If you install a new OS make sure you copy all your ROMs to a safe location on your computer before you wipe your SD card. You don't want to lose your games. Hope all that helps!
Managed to pick up the 35xx plus with accessories off of tiktok for $44 all in so went with that for the vertical format, cant really complain at that price. I already have the pocket 3+ for the sticks/ horizontal form factor.
Does these handhelds come loaded with games or do I have to be a super computer tech and configure it myself? I just want one I can buy, turn on and play the good 'ol classics..
Many of these devices have the option of coming with games. This one comes with a 64gb sd card that has the operating system and about 5,000 games on it. They also have a 128gb sd card version with even more games. You don't have to be a "super computer tech". 🙂
@@BoKnowsGaming Nice, appreciate the feedback, I am "old school" 4 sure, grew up in the 80's and 90's with all the fun arcade games, like to pick up a unit with the games preloaded and just chug away..
thanks to your review I bought thr RG35XX H and it plays great! However on the second day the SD got corrupted and I lost everything. I have the ROMS I want. But how do I go about installing the emulators and OS? Does the OS come with the emulators? Any advice would be appreciated thanks!!
Sometimes those cheap, stock sd cards go bad. It’s best to start with a new name brand one. It’s good that you have the ROMs you want! A lot of people update the card or install a custom OS and then ask where their ROMs went. If you have a fresh card you can go here and download the latest firmware from Anbernic. win.anbernic.com/download/360.html The emulators are built in. Just unzip the .img file and use a program called balena etcher to flash it to your microSD card. Then put it in your handheld and make sure it boots. Then put it back in your computer and add your ROMs back into the roms folder. Hope that helps!
Probably a stupid question if the SD that comes with it fails , once you flash a new card do you have to then go and find the games yourself again or does the flash give you the games on your new card sorry if I worded that wrong
That's not a stupid question at all. Honestly, more people need to be asking that question BEFORE they begin tinkering with their device. The best thing you can do when you get one of these is immediately take the card out, put it in your computer, and back up the Roms folder that all the games are stored in. Then, leave the card that came with it as it is so you just have it as a precautionary back up. Buy a new, name brand card and flash the firmware you want to use to it. Copy the Roms folder from your computer to the new card. When you flash a new card there will be no games. Just the firmware/OS. So it's important that you back up your Roms/games first before you do anything else.
Hmmm, I'm thinking that isnt worth upgrading from my RG353P. I like the 353 but I'm not in love with the feel of anbernic's buttons. This doesn't like like they changed it up very much.
If you already have a 353p, this would be more of a lateral move than an upgrade. I would just save my money and wait for something with more power if your 353p is still working well.
I haven’t played many sports games. But if there were any football management games made on retro consoles like Super Nintendo or PlayStation 1, then those will run on this device.
I've asked on many videos here on UA-cam and I've yet to get an answer but can anyone confirm if this device enables cheats ? Genie Pro / Action Replay ?
A lot of PSX games are natively 640x480 already. And that's what this display is. Maybe some of them were 240, idk. But PSX games are quite sharp on this little display.

That’s… tough. I think I like the D-Pad on the H a little better, and the size/pocketability better. But the RGB30’s screen is sharper, brighter, and more colorful. Plus it has really good firmware, and the H is still waiting for it. But the H isn’t as expensive. Idk. 🤷♂️ The RGB30 has been my EDC device for a few months now, but this definitely gave it a run for its money. I also feel like the RGB30’s shell would crack if I dropped it on concrete, but I don’t get that feeling from the H. It might survive. I’m not gonna test that theory though. Haha. 😂
I can't tell you where to find it. But if there was a way to search the internet you could probably find a archive of things like this from an organization.

I picked this up. I prefer the Arc S for most stuff, but I do really enjoy this handheld. I did update the to Batocera.
That’s cool. Are you a big Sega fan? Are you excited about the Sega remakes that are coming?
I ordered the Arc S recently. Not that I need it, I do have a few handhelds already. But I grew up with Sega and love the Sega controller aesthetic. As for the remakes, if it's true Crazy Taxi has turned into a live service game it feels like a massive disappointment and I'm worried about the rest also becoming some cheap cash in attempt.
Sega nostalgia hitting hard, huh? Don't worry, we'll all be there with you if Crazy Taxi starts asking for microtransactions for more "fuel"!

@@BoKnowsGaming of course it is!! Thank you!!
You’re welcome. ☺️
I just bought one to (hopefully) play Zelda OOT & Zelda MM.
I’m really hoping this device can handle these N64 games.
I know it can handle OoT. I tested that one. I didn’t try MM, but I suspect it can play that as well.
I bought one and just gonna slapp all the Pokemon games on it. I never played gen 4 or 5, so im gonna try them.
Nice. Have fun! 🙂👍
AliExpress has this going for an unbelievably cheap price, picked one up today. Got the rg35xx but the lack of joysticks makes some games a little tricky to play
That’s awesome. Yeah, I definitely recommend this over the Plus. Enjoy!
Does it make sense to pay a little extra and get rgb30? I will play on nes, gba (not gb) and ps1 mainly.
For those systems, no. I would go with the RG35XX H. They're both great though. I have a review on the RGB30 as well if you're interested. But I think the H is the best budget device of 2024 so far.
I just bought one, and I powered it up, worked great but then wouldn't charge up and now won't power on. I was so excited 😢
Did you try using the provided charging cable? Or are you using your phone charger? Try the provided cable.
Sometimes a device won't accept a charge if it is too strong. Try a lower powered charger.
The only bad thing is when Ambernic updated it there introduced micro stuttering on the screen. Also I would say the Dreamcast definitely does not run like a dream. Not one Dreamcast game I tried ran well without framskip on. I was definitely a little disappointed with mine.

Hello all.
Have you found the buttons fail, only when in the menu? It's very common, at least for me.
No. Not at all. What OS are you using? If you're having continuous problems, I would recommend installing muOS or Knulli and seeing if that fixes the issue.

@@BoKnowsGaming Yes i did that allready!
Very good. Smart!
Hi. Nice review.
May i know what game is played at time stamp 3.30?
Thank you! 😊
Absolutely, you can know. It’s Star Wars: Shadows of the Empire for the Nintendo 64. One of my favorite games growing up.
Managed to pick up the 35xx plus with accessories off of tiktok for $44 all in so went with that for the vertical format, cant really complain at that price. I already have the pocket 3+ for the sticks/ horizontal form factor.
That’s a great price. Especially with accessories. 👍
Got a link to the deal shop?
Nice video. May I ask what emulator you were using for Shadows of the Empire? Some of these N64 Star Wars games are difficult to emulate.
I think it was just Mupen64 Plus. It definitely had some frame rate drops from time to time. But it was still playable.
Are you using the stock sd card in this review, mate?
No. They fail too often. I have some Lexar cards that I use for testing these devices.
Does these handhelds come loaded with games or do I have to be a super computer tech and configure it myself? I just want one I can buy, turn on and play the good 'ol classics..

Overall which one is better rgb30 or rg35xxh for psp and n64 plz reply
And dreamcast also
A few months ago I would’ve said the RGB30, but they keep making improvements to the 35XXH, so it might be that one now. It’s close either way though.
What game @ timestamp 6:30 ? New subscriber here ✌️
It’s called Red Earth. It’s a really cool arcade fighter! I can’t believe Obi Wan subbed me! 😁

It runs RetroArch, and RetroArch is able to run cheats, so I assume this can. I've never tried it though.
Does it run PSX upscaled to 480p? (2x resolution)
A lot of PSX games are natively 640x480 already. And that's what this display is. Maybe some of them were 240, idk. But PSX games are quite sharp on this little display.
