THIS is my current MAIN handheld. The handheld I'm using more than any other. It's my 'one size fits all' device that has replaced several of my devices in a single unit. I'd love to hear your guess about which one it is, but watch the video because I think the answer might surprise you!

Your description at the beginning (around 1:30) is so magical. Sigh. It makes me realize how grateful I am to be alive during the era of abundant retro handhelds that keep growing and getting more capable at a time.
It's like my younger self (who grew up in the 80's and 90's) gets to be excited every time I fire up my retro handheld because I can play ANYTHING and I can even take it WITH ME?!?!?!
I'm one of your early subscribers and I'm so glad UA-cam recommended you to me. You make me feel such joy and happiness with your dweeb schtick, I'm sure we'd get along well in real life (attention: NOT a stalker!).
Hope your weekend rocks, TechDweeb.
I'm totally with you. Every time I feel bitter about a device not being perfect I have to remind myself how crazy it is that we get EVERY retro game in our pocket.
Appreciate you sticking with me buddy 🤓
Thank you for not glossing over the HDMI functionality. For some people, like me, it's one of the most important features in a handheld. I'm still pondering my next handheld, but the RG353V has always been on my shortlist.
Agreed!
Why is it very important to you? Do you use the hdmi functionality at home or at other places?
@@williamrosenberg8061only thing I've been able to gleam is old people with bad eyes and people in hotels a lot.
How many times will you use that functionality tho?
@@williamrosenberg8061 HDMI out is something I would use when I'm visiting friends. Right now I need to hook up my giant laptop to their big screen when we want to do retro gaming sessions.
Hey! Be careful when cutting battery wires, I saw you snipped both wires at the same time with scissors, this means the scissor blades can short the battery.
It's usually best if you cut each wire individually and at different lengths so that they never touch! :)
THIS ☝
👍🏾
The way my eyes went wide 👀 when he cut both wires at the same time! I im sure that a lot of people don't know any better.
You forgot to mention if you map the d-pad to the right analog stick you can play RPGs one handed.
OH. MY. GOD.
I never thought of that. You are a genius!
Here, have my cat in thanks ->
For those very sexy rpg's I suppose?
And a pop socket in the back
@@tosvus Or people with one arm lol
It is because of your Channel that I ended up getting an RG353v myself, & I absolutely love this thing!! I also grew up in the 80’s & 90’s(til now) & it is so amazing to have so many of the Games I grew up with, all on one device that runs good & fits in my Pocket!!
Awesome Video, Thanks!
Nice! Such a great device, still my main and one of my favs.
I use the RG35XX for GBA games mainly when im bored and then RP3+ for Android games and Pokemmo.
Solid combo. That's pretty much what I've done until recently (except I used the Miyoo Mini)
@@TechDweebI read that in your voice, dude
What is this pokemmo you speak of
Bro same! The rp3 plus is for when I want to play 3d games upscaled and the rgxx is for all my 2d stuff. Best combo out there
What android games do you recommend?
Love my rg353m. I installed ArkOS on it and would love any tips and tricks you might have to make using it a better experience. From one guy in his 40s to another, you make good stuff.
is Dweeb in his 40s ?
@@BogalaSawundiris😂Yes!!!
That intro was hilarious 😂. , but I agree I got the RG353VS as I’m not much of an android fan after watching your review and haven’t looked back since.
Id love a complete ranking or guide of every devises pocket-ability. It’s supper important to me too, and I’d love to narrow down my search.
That's a great idea for a video
Miyoo mini plus is like a 10/10
Right on!! I dig this pick as your new “daily driver”. Great compromise point for everything retro 2D but also the early 3D stuff. And the portability/pocketability is still good. For me it’s the same pick except I opted for the 353VS instead of the regular V as a cheapskate lol - no dual boot to Android and less RAM but it still seems to run everything up to Dreamcast pretty smoothly. I’m fine with the stock Anbernic Linux OS tbh but I’m going to do an Ark OS install this weekend and see how I like it - hear great things about it. Anything more powerful or harder to emulate or must play in a horizontal form factor or aspect ratio I’ll use my Odin Pro. Anything beyond that I don’t feel the need to play with a handheld and that’s why I have a gaming laptop I guess. I’d love a deeper dive video on Ark from your perspective - have seen the Retro Game Corps guide but was awhile back and I’ll prob need that to get the install going I’m sure! ☮️
would've you have chosen the V over the VS? I just ordered the VS as well
As far as the joysticks go, I’ve been using my Nintendo switch as my main console for the past 6 years, so I’m so glad that anbernic basically just put the joycon sticks into a Gameboy with triggers. Literally my dream handheld
I have the 353M and it's all this and super pocketable. It's THE device to grab and go for me. Its really versatile (including for watching videos through the Kodi media player), has a (stock) Linux interface that approaches the appeal of Amber Elec, and it has to be the most capable device at its size. If there's something better, I'd love a recommendation but it being so small and coming in black (basically), it's the perfect subtle and discreet device for an adult to kill time in a public place. I always have it. EDIT: by the way apart from Portmaster, I highly recommend the stock firmware. What I did for the ports is I copied my ports over from the 351MP. Almost all of them work perfectly under the 353M stock Linux OS. So, I basically just use postmaster on the 351MP when I want a port and I'm good to go.
A fresh Tech dweeb upload is just what my mental health needed!
Edit: I would actually love if you did a firmware setup and guide video!
You helped me to reaffirm my recent decision on this very handheld as my main. Recently installed ArkOS and saw the movies folder on the SD card but didn't really dig in further. Would love to see your guide on ArkOS and any tips and tricks there. Thanks!
ArkOS is great, but if i could recommend something it would be Black Seraphs Android Build (Or even the Stock android, if you slap daijisho on it)
RG35XX stole my heart for what I i like to play. If i need analogue stick its RP3+ time
I just recently bought rg353ps because 35xx keeps on making my hands cramp 😅 and I absolutely LOVE ArkOS. I think out of all firmwares that I have tried, ArkOS is probably the best (disclaimer: the only one I haven’t tried is GammaOS). A whole lot of customization options and the ports(!) are amazing thing to have. Not to mention the built-in file manager, the scraper, the media player, it’s almost a full package.
Anyway, thanks for the video and I would definitely love to see an in-depth video about ArkOS! Hope you consider creating one soon!
You can put a copper heat sync sheet inside it to help keep it cooler.
Would love to see an ArkOS guide for this device. I've been debating on picking on up. I think you've sold me on it.
Excellent point on the analog stix
Hey tech dweeeb... just a word of warning and to others... NEVER cut both the positive and negative wires of a battery with scissors at the same time... (don't even with scissors for that matter)... and a heatshrink with a little solder is your friend to a reliable connection.
9:01 made me feel a disturbance in the force...
Good advice, thanks!
Curating the roms to specific devices is one of my favorite to-dos in the hobby. I have a specific set iended up with on the RP3+, and recently a specific set for my RG35XX H. Around 16 to 100 roms only for each of the systems, and i only have 13 systems on each one. Basically i just ditched the systems i had no love for.
I’m currently planning to get one. I’ve tested the RG35XX Plus but I was missing the analog sticks and I don’t like the horizontal factor. I have the new rp4 pro but I’m searching the perfect pocket for my trips and also to be used sometimes as a home device and the RG353v seems the perfect one to achieve this.
Would definitely like to see a good setup and “tweaks” video especially with some good info on shaders and other rendering tweaks. Most of the install vids i have seen for it dont go into optimizing retroarch for the device.
I've always thought the 353V was underrated. The only thing that keeps me going back to the miyo mini is the garlicOS. If the tech gods ever make a GarlicOS for the 353V, i'll be complete. I'd also love to see a deep dive video of your 353V arkOS setup. What size microSD are you running?
I love Garlic OS, but I must admit I prefer Emulation Station for the customizability and the file management tools (and the extra features of ArkOS like ports and built-in metadata scraping are icing on the cake).
32gb system card, 256gb games card.
I am using a 512gb card@@TechDweeb
If you can get a hold of one, try out a KTPocket KT-R1. It's pretty compact and pocketable, but can play a lot of GameCube and PS2. It also has a 3:2 aspect ratio display which is amazing for GBA and is awesome for 4:3 and 16:9 content as well. I love mine! Thanks for the video.
I had an RG35XX but couldn't get over the ergonomics of it. Or lack thereof for my hands. So I sold it and my other older Vita to buy a Retroid Pocket 3+ and not missing the RG35XX in the slightest. Because it wasn't what I really needed. The RP3+ can run the games I want but I can also finally use Xbox Streaming from my console. I PLAYED SKYRIM ON IT 😂
Can it handle Switch games?
Mine stopped working real quick 😔
This is also my most used device since I'm playing through the Zelda GBC titles. I really prefer the vertical form factor. I'd love to see a setup video.
New subscriber here, dunno why but that dance in pocketability part was awesome ahahah😜✌️✌️keep it up brother. I'm currently using 351p hope i can upgrade soon. Thanks for the info🙏 peace & respect from Malaysia 🇲🇾✌️
That’s the device I got! Well, the VS but close enough. The blue Powkiddy is tempting too for the screen size.
Yeah the VS is nearly identical, all of this applies to the VS. The X55 is probably my favourite budget device. Great quality and screen size for the price.
I would love so much if you did an in depth set up guide for this!! I got mine a week before the 405v came out and I’m very salty about that, so to see that someone enjoys this device so much would definitely help me appreciate mine more (hard coping rn)
If you do make a ArkOS video for the 353 handhelds that would be awesome! I know RGC made a video a while back about it but im sure theres been some changes since then plus another opinion on options would be great! Honestly havent even touched my 353m at all because when I received mine the 405m came the week after but this video is giving me a second look at it.
I so feel you! My current favorite is still my RG353P which was my very first device and i keep coming back to it! It is just so comfortable.
I would recommend you take a look at JelOS, they do updates for Anbernic devices again, they actually do update something like 2 times a week. I personally like it more because it is in my opinion much cleaner then ArkOS. You can use the same ROM sd card, since the file order and folders are the same between the OS’s. So you can just swap out the OS sd card to switch between the OS’s without needing to mess with the Rom folders. :3
Maybe you can make a compare video between JelOS and ArkOS!
@techdweeb if you can get your hands on a anbernic 405v I'd love to see a review video on the thicc boy ❤
I have one! Review vid soon!
I don't have the 353v but something I've noticed that I haven't heard anyone say is that ---- say you have a vertical handheld and a horizontal handheld of the same weight,the vertical one will allow you to play longer before you get tired of holding it. For some reason your hands are an inch or so closer to each other and that seems to make my arms less tired. Yes I also tried holding heavier consoles in my lap, but this feels awkward and fairly tiring.
You're the best Tech Dweeb!
I would not have guessed that THAT was going to be your main handheld (no spoilers) but your reasoning makes a lot of sense! Cheers
I'd appreciate an ArkOS/Set-up guide!
I started watching you... 6 months ago and you improved so much! Your videos are 99% of the time funny and amazing
Keep it up! Dweeb!
Edit: i didn't comment earlier cuz i was sleeping 🗿
I like how i was talking about making a review on the new rg405v vertical twin stick handheld and you picked the 353v. Coincidence i think not!!!😂
I have the RG405v. Only played with it a little bit, but I like it so far. Review coming soon!
Oh man seeing OG spelunky is great. I legitimately prefer the art and especially the music. This seems like a fantastic way to play that.
OH. MY. GOD.
I've never thought of that.
You are brilliant. Here, take my scorpions! 🦂🦂🦂🦂
I pretty much have a 35xx and a modded switch... those two do a lot of usefull stuff including playing games on tv having included controllers.
Great vid tho :) keep it up!
Awesome as always!! Please do an ArcOS tutorial so we can all enjoy this retro device!!
Still gotta have my hands on a Retroid Pocket, or a Miyoo Mini... Of the 5 devices I currently own, Anbernic RG Nano really took my heart... Really loved the personal touches you did to your device... Big hug from your fan from the other side of the Equator! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
You kinda recommended the rg353VS over this 5 months ago in a video… so why is the rg353V your daily driver/recommendation and not the rg353vs?
Great video! What was that first TMNT game in the first 5 seconds?
GBA 'Teenage mutant ninja turtles'
Yes! Ark OS tutorial video please!!
Honestly my main console is and has been the Switch for the past 2 years or so. So many incredible titles and huge backlog to go through. As a 30-year-old who got into gaming in my mid twenties and started with Pokémon, I went through my DS and 3DS eras and still love both of them. Right now my main emulation console is the Steam Deck, but it's way too much to take with me regularly. I have an RG35XX Plus coming next week that I plan to use for 8- and 16-bit era gaming, and maybe a bit of PS1, but anything 3D I'll probably run on the Deck.
Getting one of these for my brother, and eventually myself. We both would really appreciate the install, setup and config video for ArkOS you are offering/suggesting. My brother loves to tinker with tech, but we are both somewhat new to emulation. So yes please, if you could find it in your heart to do that video... (Begins to pray) Our gratitude would be eternal.
Will do!
Completely off-topic, in case you didn't notice. Russ did a video recently, where he showed his youtube. The first video suggestion was yours (RG405M if I recall correctly), and it was showing up as already watched.
I just realized that your intro music has that distinct C64 sound. Like an underwater synthesizer or something. Is there a name for that sound? Someone had a great sounding remake of the famous C64 Commando music, I need to find it now.
Yeah I dunno! I found it on free music archive. There's a link in the description. Catchy tune huh?
2:52 I thought for sure the device he took all the time to tweak was going to be the OG Gameboy in the center, and that tweaking was going to be turning the contrast knob so the green and yellow play off each other juuuust right
It's a pipe dream! There is NO contrast knob setting that makes the screen just right! It's NEVER just right!
You sound like a bad guy from a comic or something haha I also like your humour. You've got a new sub buddy. Keep up this content and I'll keep watching, you'll also grow your channel pretty well also 🙂
Thanks so much for saying so!
I'm genuinely heartbroken that it's not the RG35xx or the Miyoo mini plus. Just curious, why not those two? They're perfect for old farts like us who grew up with the 2D 8 and 16 bit era games.
I'm guessing you play a little bit more modern stuff?
Please keep making videos about retro handhelds, Love your content!
It on the video, because of retro achievements, being able to backup save files on the cloud, play PC ports and to play on a TV.
I LOVE the Mini Plus. It's probably my favourite device in terms of look and hand-feel, and pocket factor. The shortcomings are - no TV out, fewer ports, no analog stick (although I could live without that because of the form factor), no portmaster, and as much as I love Onion OS I have to admit that I prefer Emulation Station because of the customization and library management tools.
@@TechDweebAh, ok. That makes sense. For me, I just can't get over the gorgeous look of the RG35XX and Mini plus. Because I grew up with the Genesis, I have a soft spot for 2D 16 bit games, and so those two systems really hit a homerun for me. I almost never play 3D stuff on these portable devices so the analog sticks are really not important to me personally(I also think they ruin a vertical device aesthetics). That said, the more I interact with the retro emulation community, I realize that I'm probably a bit older than most and my priorities are very different. Lots of people really want the 3D systems in their pocket too. And many people are not that nostalgic that they're willing to give up functionality for something that looks more authentic to an original Gameboy.
Cool Video and I am happy you love your
Nintendo style devices. Unfortunately, I don't have the same
experience in life as for some reason the Chinese keep thinking
that no one will buy a Sega style device. So, I am stuck without a handheld.
Unless you want to consider the RS97 with IPS display and CFW firmware on it but,
that's still a Nintendo style and the only one I will own as right now it's the only one
I can afford to have and play. Even though it's many years old now. Oh well, guess gaming
is for those who love Nintendo and not Sega like I do. Don't know if there ever will be a Sega handheld for me.
Excited for the AOKZOE emulation video
It's in the works!
The fact that you still remember the time before you became a famous youtuber keeps me amazed.
I've forgotten since making this video. I'm so famous that contemplating a life without fame doesn't compute for me.
Just bought this device and really looking forward to getting it soon as my pocketable device!
Great video! Interesting choice as your main handheld.
Are you planning on reviewing the retroid pocket 2s?
Definitely! Just waiting on it to arrive.
Hi, great video. I’ve been watching your channel for like a month trying to figure out which handheld I should pick up. I am looking for something that can play PS2 games like Grandtheft auto, midnight club and Gran Turismo preferably in 16 x 9. As for the style, ideally something around the same size as a Nintendo switch OLED since that’s what I have right now. I don’t care much if it fits in my pocket. Any suggestions?
My main for retro is 405m. Better than 353v and way more comfortable. Basically the same size too. Its not much bigger at all.
Your pocket demonstrations crack me the fork up.
This is a great handheld emulator. Got mine off of facebook marketplace. A lot of consoles work and their games. Been tinkering around with it. Changing the operating systems and all that jazz. Able to connect to the tv and have wireless controllers. Fun little machine. Will you be getting the retroid pocket 4/4+?
Yup!
1. I love your videos, and thank you for helping me cement the device I am buying.
2. You playing fighting force makes young me smile. If I hadn't already subscribed, I'd subscribe 😂.
Keep at it, ya dweeb!
It's a great game! I didn't know about it til recently but I'm glad I found it. LMK if you know any other good 3d beat-em-ups!
@TechDweeb I am very late but here are three (been watching martial arts movies since I was young if you can't tell lol)
1. Jackie Chan Stuntmaster (PS1)
2. Jackie Chan adventures (PS2)
3. Jet Li Rise to Honor (PS2)
Since I have been pocketing my Steam deck ...women are noticing more my endowing prowess ...now they called me the human tripod 😅... of course I don't tell them what is my secret 😊
We all know the real secret is being subscribed to TechDweeb ;)
I used my Miyoo mini more than any other. But the comfort and size eventually made me go back to my RGB10Max2. But I recently picked up a PowKiddy X55 and man oh man do I LOVE that little device, especially for a cool $80 delivered.
excellent choice! it’s my one and only 🥰
It may not play ps2, but at least it can play the android ports of the gta games super well. GTA 3, Vice City, San Andreas, and Liberty City Stories android ports all run great on 353 devices
I'll test them out!
Hello, I would be interested in the ArkOS guide. I tried it, and also Jelos, but in the end stayed with the stock OS. When I tested the 3, the stockOS had the best performance for Dreamcast, plus I love the hotkey for auto-fire, for SHUMPS. Thanks! Great stuff
I'm almost with you, my daily is the RG353M, It fits more comfortable on my hands
I bought Playstation symbol buttons from Sakura Retro Modding for my RP3+ and they are excellent quality. As I mainly use my RP3+ as a PSP replacement they really help sell the feel of that,
man that portable truly does do it all.. i love your channel.. but dude.. your making me go broke with all these cool vids on retro handhelds.. keep up the great work!
Currently using Anbernic RG552 as my main portable device because of the screen size and aspect ratio. This will probably last me until RK3588 handhelds are released.
Pretty cool choice, I might have to put it on my Christmas list. Santa better be real or I'm going to have find another reason to sit on fat stranger's laps.
Never fear. Mall Santas will always be real, and they'll always listen to your wishes, and always whisper what a good boy you've been.
I have the 353v and i like it for what i have. Unfortunately i deleted the linux os and don’t have a computer to redownload the os. Honestly i really love it but i kinda hate how people glossed over it for the XX and miyoo mini as far as customization goes
Just got the 353V today and love it.
Nice! Hope you love it!
Nice video, waiting for mine. Is ark os. Android or Linux? I chose the vs version that’s why the question
ArkOS is Linux, you can use it on the VS ☝️
Would this be good for a Pokémon/pokemmo machine. I’ve been on the fence for awhile about purchase
ArkOS guide yes please. Thanks for another great video. Cheers 😊
Awesome video as always my boi
I tried and returned/sold many handhelds before finally settling on my perfect combo. The RG35XX H and the Rog Ally. Everything up to about PS1 is excellent on the RG, then everything else gets the ally treatment.
Solid combo!
this was a fun watch :) I'm going to wait for a v2 of some sort for that extra power for gamecube/ps2. playing those on an ipad pro isn't very fun lol or the phone for that matter.
I have the RG353M and run the stock OS on android and use Daijisho on it. Love the simple use of it scraping all of your games. I love the ability to run it as a console. The Hall effect sticks are big plus as well and the ability of Bluetooth controllers. Great overall daily driver to have with you.
You nailed it with it being the perfect balance between size and power. Only a bit bigger than Miyoo Mini+/RGXX but can hit N64, DC and PSP (many games look surprisingly fantastic in 4:3--not the least of which being Street Fighter Alpha 3, where the PSP port, which is the best and most feature-rich version, has been stretched to fit widescreen so 4:3 actually squishes it back to normal!) and a ton of ports of nice PC games like Half-Life and Quake. Even the RP3+ is too big and I can't stand Android for whatever reason. I love this thing lots.
Well said
Please tell me. where do I get a sanpao mini android TV. I have been looking for one for a month and everywhere I have found has 0 tvs. I am dying to get my hands on one.
I was an only child, and just still wasn't my parents favorite
Same.
The analog sticks are pretty much a requirement for me. I injured my thumb with too much gaming, so now it hurts to use a d-pad. Would prefer to have the left stick in the prime position, with d-pad moved into a secondary spot.
Let us know if the rg405v becomes the new go to or if it's too big for the cargo pocket! It's about the same size as the original Game Boy!
I have one and will be testing extensively soon!
Would love to see a tutorial on how to get shredders revenge working on my 353v I followed all the steps from retro game corp and it still doesn’t seem to want to work :(
Hmmm. Alrighty I'll see if I can figure out why people are having problems and see if I can help you guys out.
I know this is probably not really a retro handheld but my steam deck does everything I need it too and more.
Just curious is this still your main device ?? Am undecided on whether to get one of this along side my mm+
Yup! The RP2s is probably my new 'favorite' device (for now), but the 353v is still my main device because it has that all important pocket factor, and also I just love emulation station.
@@TechDweeb I seen your vid on RPR2s and I loved it. Thank you for the reply I will probably get one as well
Noooo, TD went with the lesser good Firmware. JelOS has OTA updates nearly weekly, as of now. It's constantly being improved and all the Ports are there, too.
Great video man loved it! ♥
Appreciate it!
Wonderful video I was using my phone for emulation and it just doesn't feel quite right. With the Steam Deck I don't have a need for a powerful android handheld. This video really helps to lead me in the right direction. Thanks
I have a feeling you might like the Retroid Pocket Flip. Dunno why
Saaaame they day you got it I know you would love it!!! It's my main daily driver too
I’ve got a couple of 353VS ones, but apart from the great looking clear black colour, there is absolutely nothing I like about it that the RG353PS would not have. Maybe the slight difference in size, but whereas the PS is really comfortable, the VS is awkward and uncomfortable to use, my fingers are entangled. I prefer the horizontal layout, but that never stopped me completing games on the amazing RG280V. I can’t imagine doing that on these other vertical handhelds.
This looks great. This is a great handheld. Would also love to have a tutorial to mod this!
My main two retro handhelds are the Analogue Pocket and the Anbernic RG405M. I really hope Garlic OS 2.0 will be released soon for the latter.
Nothing beats the Pocket's screen. Even freaking Game & Watch looks phenomenal on it. The 405M on the other hand has a big 4" screen that has my favorite aspect ratio which is 4:3 since it plays every old TV console perfectly (obviously) while GBA games still look superb on it.
I think that's what I'll get I've been wanting a system that plays almost all consoles
Mostly at home device, that's what happened to my Switch Lite, and is why I never got an Odin Lite. I needed something that could live in my messenger bag, without wasting space or adding significant weight. 2,8" is too small for my tired eyes, so I basically went with the smallest available 3,5" unit: The RG35XX. Sure, I'll miss out on N64 and DC, but I'm mostly into 16-bit games anyway, and hey, it's smaller, prettier and cheaper than the 353 variants.
I still want the rg353v even though I have a rg405v. I’m just really drawn to it for some reason and find it really cool. Also I only choose the gray models as well because I love the retro look it has
