I wanted to get a Miyoo mini to gift someone.. but they look sold out as Russ mentioned in his recent video there seems to be pockets of times where they are available on AliExpress). Now considering the 300X 👍
Yeah does HDMI out work with AnberNIX on the 300x and the 350m ? That would be really awesome! Also a comparison with the latest Adam Image would be great!! Please do this!😁🙏
Awesome! I have two RG300Xs. I'm going to try out this new AnberNIX on my Gold RG300X and leave the stock firmware on my Silver one for now. If I like the new firmware enough, I'll then update my Silver RG300X with it.
The 280V was my first retro handheld, so it has a special place in my pocket. I haven't used mine in a while but hearing that there's a new OS to try definitely gives me a reason to get it out again.
Bought a 350P a while back, and couldn't get used to having analogue sticks where I would typically rest my thumbs. Went to the 300X and haven't looked back since. Near perfect little handheld, great ergonomics. Just wish it had a little more power under the hood.
Love my RG280V. It feels great in the hands and looks unique. I did not get the RG300X because I still own an original Gameboy Micro and that thing is way smaller than this, and I don't play it often but after 3 years later just sitting in a drawer it still turns on.
There is a opendingux update in the Chinese community that help improve the overly bluish display for the rg300X to a warmer/saturated one. Don't see anything similar yet for a English system.
I love and adore the Anbernic 280V. I bought it and an RG300. The RG300 crapped out. Was definetly a cheap POS lol. But the 280V packed some decent power and a gorgeous screen and beautiful aesthetics. I have the golden version. it plays PS1 games no problem! Though I mostly wanted these little Anbernics to play GBA, GB, and GBC games and SNES. They do not disappoint. I might get a 300X just because. When you hold these things they feel very quality.
The 300X reminds me of the GameBoy Micro lol I had the Micro. In fact I had 2 of them. I accidentally ran over it with a power chair and had to replace it.
@@retrohandhelds LOL I was mad when it happened but I think I had a warranty on it so it was easy to replace. Or I think I just bought another one outright considering it was less than $100 at the time.
@3:39 I'm guessing you meant less pixels but I wanted to make it clear that losing half the pixel density while losing less than 10% of the screen size means the pixels would be larger in appearance.
It's inside NeoGeo ofc. I'm always baffled of this emulation devices rg300x can play smooth ps1 games but do only 50fps on mame/fba games like Final Fight and Altered Beast.
Problem is the price... they perform the same as VQ90 and other device that cost 30-40 bucks, so you're paying over double the price for slightly better buttons and a sturdier shell. If they offered at least better ergonomics or a bigger screen i could see the potential.
I don't think that they perform the same of a VQ90, look at Mame, SNES and PSX performances. Moreover, the screen quality is way better on these two devices (no screen tearing, for example)
Hi, citral here, please remove my name as I don't approve redistribution of opensource projects in binary form without sources/GPL copy etc, have nothing to do with this, and it doesn't make any sense anyway ("citral for dingux" followed by "opendingux beta team", what? Dingux was an os for the dingoo a320). I suggest you say "based on opendingux beta and Adam" instead or something like that.
You got it. I understood about half the words you just said. How do I add a GPL copy to the download? I am not a dev. Would prefer to do this properly. - Stubbs 🫣
@@retrohandhelds hey Stubbs, no hard feelings, I gave directions to the great crippler so get in touch with him if you prefer to handle this properly :)
I have a 280v on the way! I recently got a Miyoo Mini, and I wanted a comparison as well as a more durable (allegedly) option. Would you recommend going straight to AnberNIX, or rocking Adam?
You made a wise decision. I own both the Miyoo Mini and the RG280V and they are both fantastic. Having the Miyoo Mini is like having a mini Gameboy and having the RG280V is like having something unique in your hands. You'll know what I am talking about when you get yours and admire the nicely squared aesthetics. I got Onion OS on my Miyoo Mini and Adam on my RG280V. Take a shot every time I said RG280V. You're on the floor. Thank me tomorrow.
It's cool to see that people are still putting the work into these devices. I'm probably gonna stick with Adam because I love scrolling through a scraped fullset and mostly play Gameboy and NES on mine anyway, but if some of AnberNIX's PSX performance improvements make it over to Adam, I'll happily update it and give some PSX games a shot.
i still have the stock OS on the 280v. i want to update it only to be able to lock/sleep the handheld midgame just by tapping the power button. thatll be huge when im at work and can put it in my pocket if a random person is coming to talk to me. the adam OS seems more than i need, and waaaay longer to install than id like. im curious if the anbernix OS has the lock/sleep feature ? 🤔
WHAT!!! I'm So excited to see updated firmware for the 300X thx for the link to this OS since its near impossible to find on the internet. Even Anbernic website has no mention of the new OS firmware!
The sound volume when using this image is low even when pressing the volume buttonto max it, if you check in sound mixer, seems like the volume is affected by "Mixer" which is set to 31 by default and changing this value did not stick. After every reboot it will return to 31 again.
So AnberNIX is worse than Adam Image? What a letdown.. seems they even couldn't get to fix/work HDMI out. So i wonder what's the point of releasing this since it's a poor Adam Image ripoff..?
I have a Mac and cannot get the SD card to have a blank name. Using a "space" isn't working which was suggested to use in Disk Utility. Any idea how to force an SD card to not have a name (to leave it blank) on a Mac? Thank you for the help!
What's your thoughts? Do you have one of these lying around, or is now a good time to pick one up?
I didn't even think to ask... But does HDMI out work with AnberNIX on the 300x?

The RG300X is an awesome device. I think the silver and black model is nicer.
Stubbs you are just awesome!
I will try to make a video about it this week
Aw RAD! Let me know if you have any questions 🙌
No video..?🧐
The 280V and 300X are ANBERNIC's most stylish handhelds in my opinion!
Bought a 350P a while back, and couldn't get used to having analogue sticks where I would typically rest my thumbs. Went to the 300X and haven't looked back since. Near perfect little handheld, great ergonomics. Just wish it had a little more power under the hood.
I bought the RG300X last week. Its very fun to play

Great to see new os!🛸
I actually just started collecting handhelds so this video was a great help 🙏💯 just earned a new sub brotha keep it up

Hrm, this may be the same one. Let me confirm.
Where did you hear about this? Would love to do that to the screen on my RG300X

Absolutely!
Just bought a 280v for my lady
Am sure she will be very happy with this.
I just bought one after gifting a 35xx+ to my nephew a deck owner
The 300X reminds me of the GameBoy Micro lol I had the Micro. In fact I had 2 of them. I accidentally ran over it with a power chair and had to replace it.
No WiFi is a hard pass. I love the form factor of the 300X but no WiFi kills it for me.
Noooooo! Ouch! Man those Micros fetch a pretty penny these days too 😅😅😅
@@retrohandhelds LOL I was mad when it happened but I think I had a warranty on it so it was easy to replace. Or I think I just bought another one outright considering it was less than $100 at the time.
Can anyone let me know if it's possible to fast forward GBA pokemon games on the 300X? Looking for something to solely play that, thanks
Just starting to watch. Please please please be good on the 280v. It’s such nice hardware but I have using it.
No HDMI out ?
I just tested it out with AnberNIX. It flashes on my TV for a second then goes black. I'm unsure what would make it work IF it works.
If I got another 350, it would be the original.
Is Pico 8 part of the anberNIX package?
@3:39 I'm guessing you meant less pixels but I wanted to make it clear that losing half the pixel density while losing less than 10% of the screen size means the pixels would be larger in appearance.
Yes, good correction! 💯
Flanders too.
How to install FBA emulator on AnberNIX OS? Can't find it.
It's inside NeoGeo ofc. I'm always baffled of this emulation devices rg300x can play smooth ps1 games but do only 50fps on mame/fba games like Final Fight and Altered Beast.
@@trendafilov7 I use FBA 2012 core (retroarch) for CPS games and games go smooth
which firmware do you recommend more this modded anbernic OS or Adam image? I'm not sure which one performs better.
Adam is still my favorite since it has box art. Performance should be the same now. - Stubbs
@@retrohandhelds thanks, Keep up the good work!
I installed it but there was no Mario 64 in the list of ported games. Do I have to do something? Obs My model is 300x.

My man took me back to two of the worst looking retro handhelds of all time! 😂

Rad! Yeah, it should make it to Adam once they update to the latest Open Dingux Beta nightly
I wish Adams image didn't separate the handheld from the consoles in the menu. Other than that, I like it.
@@skycloud4802 Same here. I wish all systems were under one menu.

If AnberNIX OS works on 300x and 280v... Does it work on 280m?
With some minor tweaking, it should! Working with the dev to get a 280m, 350m, and 350/350p build going.
Where can I find the new firmware for 280v
WHAT!!! I'm So excited to see updated firmware for the 300X thx for the link to this OS since its near impossible to find on the internet. Even Anbernic website has no mention of the new OS firmware!
Yeah since HDMI Out isn't ready yet, they aren't advertising it. Stoked that you are stoked! Hope you enjoy it!
Wait they'll make HDMI ready..? 😮 You sure!?! That would be awesome!!! I hope they release it before Christmas with 350M support.🙏🎁😃

How can 300x screen be OCA laminated if the plastic cover goes across the whole face of the device? Do they oca laminate to that front panel?
I bet you do a killer seymour skinner impression!!

Try it inside of virtual machine windows
