Totally perfect format. It makes all game fit more or less, and all retro gaming perfect. 4:3 is the best. followed by 3:2 ( bit wider, better for modern games, but still good for retro ) then the 1:1...amazing for shoots and protable systems. 16:9 is really lame and only gives an edge for PSP, or Android games, or eventually WII in wide mode... I just wish it would be a Linux based system so we could enjoy TRUE frontends like Batocera.
If I wasn't already interested in the KT-R1, this might have been my RP2+ replacement. Now if Anbernic makes an RG505 with 6 face buttons, then I'll jump on it. I'm also a Sega Saturn fan😇 One of your best videos to date RTD🤝
The Evercade EXP has one very similar to that. I just keep waiting and hoping for the EverSD to work on it so I can open it up to emulation especially for TATE gaming.
Great review, I like the teardown part added to the main review video. I like how you pointed out how easy a battery replacement would be. Yes I love the black buttons better on the black and grey devices, save the candy buttons for more color devices. The candy seems to standout way to much ( color wise ). now to the handheld its self, no video out, My heart just dropped. single SD card slot, no dual boot, that sucks. I Did like to see they went with the Xbox control layout, and gave option for pre-configure xbox controls. It does sucks a little they went with the 4.3 screen layout, not 16.9 hurting the higher up game play.
Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to comment! 🙏 The teardowns are definitely becoming a routine part of my in-depth videos now as many really enjoy that. I really think it's important when devices have easy repairable/replaceable components such as the battery since those are prone to failure.
Unboxing it reminded me when I unboxed my old iPhone 6 Plus. They have very similar materials/finish. This is a really solid and smooth feeling device (quite slippery though, thank God for the grips). This is a premium feeling device
As usual, the perfect handheld is a moving target... This one has a very confuse use case, IMO. Less value for money than the RP3/3+ for a T618, less power and spec customization than the KTR1. This could have a niche as a GC/PS2 device - it's the smallest T618 so far, which is nice, and top-stick + some thickness is maybe going to make it more comfortable than the RP3+ for that - but inline, non-analog triggers and the low screen rez is a disappointment.
There's nothing wrong with the screen resolution. The chipset is not powerful enough for PS2 and GC, 1x internal resolution is better with 480p screen. And for DC, using 2x internal resolution will give better AA because of supersampling. 2D graphic such as on Snes and Genesis is also better with 480p. If the screen has higher resolution, the 2d games will become more pixelated. It also gives more room for the use of extensive shader. The only downside of this screen is for PSP and android games. But there is already RP3+ for that.
The "low screen res" 4:3 aspect is because it is mostly used for emulators and that is a good resolution for integer scaling on many emulators. Also on a screen this small 640 x 480 is not bad, I have the RG350M with the same resolution and it is fine.
The size, resolution, and aspect ratio are perfect for retro games. I received mine about a week ago and it truly is the perfect retro handheld. I quite like the inline shoulder buttons. They work really well
Excellent video I saw this device the other day and was considering it but now I think I will just wait. I have actually forgotten about the retroid pocket 3 plus. Maybe that is what I need lol.
Another Wave Race 64 lover?! Insta sub,haha. I am absolutely digging what Anbernic has done with this console - just wow. A pocketable powerhouse; I can play Sega Saturn and fit this device in my pocket?! Dreamcast and N64 run solid, too? What a time to be a handheld emulation fan 😮
I don't know if you're interested, but Gamma OS fixes pretty much everything that is wrong with the Anbernic Android build. It's really good stuff: github.com/TheGammaSqueeze/GammaOS Published two videos on it, this is the most recent one: ua-cam.com/video/vMJKEG3CV-k/v-deo.html
A 4 x 3 screen just makes so much sense for these systems. Literally the only system that uses wide screen is PSP and that’s it so I don’t know why we don’t get more big screens in 4 x 3 like this. I think my perfect device would be this but a 720p 4 inch, 4 x 3 screen
It doesn't support tv out natively through the USB C. You will need something like a USB-C to HDMI cable that has the MHL functionality built into it such as this: amzn.to/3zdRkNI I haven't tested it out myself, it's definitely something I want to try. Bluetooth controllers do work!
@@retrotechdad For one dumb, brief moment, I considered buying the device for the wallpaper. Then I Google Cam'd it and found out it's someone named Ishtar from Fate Grand Order
Are all the games preloaded when bought, or does the buyer have to do that themselves. Are there a bunch on already and allowance to add additional content?
Yes, if you purchase the one with an SD card (they have different sizes) it will have games on it. It's kind of a random assortment. I was sent the 128GB version and it was almost full to capacity with just a little room available.
@@retrotechdad yeah i almost bought the standard until i saw the bottom options. Thinking of getting the 256 version. Curious, is there sega genesis or game gear games on the 405 or 505 series.
Went to go and buy one this morning, but unfortunately it's too expensive for what you get. I'll be sticking with my RG35XX that'll play most of the content at a fraction of the cost.
The 405m will be slightly more powerful with a slightly larger screen. The 2S should be pretty interesting since it's going to be plastic which means lighter than the 405m, it's got analog sticks at the bottom (if you prefer that) and analog triggers as well.
Depends on what you are looking for? Price to performance on the Odin Lite can't be beat. You also get a larger 16:9 screen. Now, if you want something with a 4:3 screen and much more compact, the 405M is a very nice choice. It's built really well.
@@retrotechdad Thanks for the reply! I’m looking for something to play up to 3DS with no major issues. The three handhelds I’m considering is the 405m, the Odin lite and the retroid flip that’s coming out soon .
Thank you! 🙏 No, there is no video out over the USB C port. 😭 You could potentially use a cable with MHL built-in but I can't promise how well it works. For example, something like this: amzn.to/3L0hr1n
I bought this color specifically for the skittles buttons. Reminds me of Xbox buttons. They look really good contrasted against the greenish gray shell
I really want to use a lanyard. I just want to make sure it doesn't come off. Do you find that the lanyard via 3.5mm holds well? The device is heavy after all.
I tried a button swap with the ones from my 280V, unfortunately they don't fit! They have a larger base, it might be possible to trim the plastic but I didn't feel up to the challenge. I ordered plain black buttons from etsy, but it's a shame, I really like the 280V style!
Its almost perfect the only thing i cant imagine a android device with a 480p display yes its perfect for some retro games but if i watch youtube i don't know maybe the flip is better option
Yes, the low res screen is definitely noticeable within Android. For emulation, it's not a problem. I'm excited to get the Flip, should be a nice clamshell device!
Hi, great job! Can you help me? I search the best model of Retro 4/3 horizontal console to play the Sega Saturn? The RG405M seems to be my champion ^^ Right? Thanks a lot!
Yes, it should be able to handle whatever the T618 can. I did two videos on Switch emulation with Skyline on the T618 so expect mostly lighter games but still worth checking out: ua-cam.com/video/9sPxqGEv-Po/v-deo.html
Thank you! 🙏 This one actually needs to be sideloaded because the Play Store lists it as being "incompatible". However, I still tested the game and it's having issues detecting the native controller. 😭
how is the screen size when playing n64? i have the 3.5inch rg353m and i find the screen too small for n64. does the half inch more screen make a difference?
No, I don't think it's going to be as dramatic of a difference coming from that screen size. N64 games look great on the smaller screen but if you're on the RG353M, it's probably not going to look/feel that different.
I was wondering if there are any problems playing The Simpsons: Road Rage and The Simpsons: Hit and Run (either PS2 or Game Cube versions) on this device.
the bug in android, not 16:9 aspect ratio and use low resolution screen, yup this one is a big miss to me despite having great CPU inside and have Metal case.
Issue I've found. On current dolphin APK, running Vulkan Backend, Double Dash has a dark screen. Switching it to OGL backend, you get a dark screen glitch when actually racing. Anyone know a fix to this? Is there another dolphin version I should be using?
Depends on the form factor you are looking for, same chipset. RP3+ has the 16:9 display whereas the 405M has a 4:3 display. It's also slightly more compact but has a metal build. It comes down to preference mostly, but both are very solid devices.
I am still undecided about ordering it, perfect handheld but lacks power to play ALL 4:3 content, i preordered the KT-R1 if it comes to be real maybe that will be the one.
@@cragui2002 It will definitely be more powerful however the only thing that concerns me is the fact the Handcrafted Handhelds can vary when it comes to overall Build Quality.
There are a lot of people who will buy a console just because it appears ‘quality’, so there is a market. I bought the 405m because it will be my only retro handheld that will leave the house and therefore needs to be a bit more sturdy.
Ok good, you mentioned US Dollars. So many UA-camrs obstinately don't mention the US words. Who really knows the actual currency if they keep saying $149? 🙄
For sure, I try to make as much clear to the viewer. Same goes for measurements, usually include metric and imperial. There's definitely a big world outside of the US! 😅🙏
@@retrotechdad gave your video a like immediately for the US Dollars verbalization. Will continue to watch the whole thing later. Thanks for including more measurements.
This device is nothing special when there's better handhelds on the market but this low powered device will jedi mind trick some people for its purchase lol.
4:3 looks so much better on handhelds than wide screen. Even with the native android games.

I won’t buy any retro handheld unless it has a 4:3 screen. Only games made in the 20th century for me.
Finally a video that shows the actual dissembling of the device well done.....very nicely built device might just pick one up....

Seriously, why aren't we getting anything with 6 face buttons?!?! 😭
Sega Saturn is so annoying with just the 4. 😅🤣
ktr is just a scam. Take care of your money.
I'd prefer a Handheld with a Sega Saturn/Genesis style D-Pad before the Facebuttons.

@@Pridetoons
I'd take both ol' skool Sega Dpad and 6 face buttons, on a handheld, that can run Sega Saturn.
I actually prefer the skittles colored buttons. Quite a unique look, so I'll keep the stock buttons on my 405M when I get it.
Same here if I buy it.
@@Pridetoons They remind me of billiard ball colors! That's the main reason I like them.

@@retrotechdad gave your video a like immediately for the US Dollars verbalization. Will continue to watch the whole thing later. Thanks for including more measurements.
2023 & we're still up only to PS1 emulation !? REALLY #anbernic !?
It's way past ps1 your being sarcastic it plays dreamcast,psp Saturn it also streams and plays some ps2 and GameCube games
@@mackw919 I WANT ALL !! you hear me.. ALL !!
if this had a better chipset and 720p screen I would go for this
This is the 'better' chipset.. most retro handheld today stuck with rk3566, cant even run dreamcast properly
KTR1 should bring better performance, hoping to get my hands on one... eventually. 😅
I'm subscribed to too many channels. Many of my favorite channels are posting videos at the same time. 😥
Oh no! 😅😭
Same man😅
I thought I played all the medal of honors wtf lol
Wheres that 405V at? Lol
Don't give them any ideas, too many choices! 😅
Keep your gotm takes to yourself! 😂
😅🤣 Riiiiiidge Racer!
Too bad it cant stream from ps5 app…
AHN-Ber-nic. not anBERnic
Great video! But the way you pronounce “anBERnic” irks me!
This device is nothing special when there's better handhelds on the market but this low powered device will jedi mind trick some people for its purchase lol.
What would be a better choice? I want to play nes, gba, sega md, and N64. ?? I was looking at retroid pocket 3 plus possibly?
A man does this have built-in games?
Anbernic usually has options with an included micro SD card that has built-in games.
