RG35XX H, Anbernic Retro Handheld Gaming Console with 64GTF Card, Dual Joystick Design 3.5-inch HD Screen Lasts up to 8 Hours High-Capacity Battery for Better Experience (64G Jet)

Great handheld system for a very fair price
I’ve seen systems like this for the last few years and honestly thought they were probably too good to be true for the price that you pay. I was so wrong. The build quality is quite good. The controls themselves feel excellent for the size of the device. The screen is bright and crisp with vibrant accurate colors. The battery life is sufficient, I can’t give you runtimes because they can vary quite a bit depending on the system you’re emulating, screen brightness, and wifi/bluetooth use. The included Anbernic firmware works well enough, but if you really want to see what this device has to offer, I would recommend checking out the 3rd party firmware Knulli. One thing that isn’t highlighted enough on the product page is the ability to plug this in to a tv (have to buy a cable) and bluetooth a few controllers to it to play multiplayer on a normal screen. My order came in a little over a week ago and I’ve probably already clocked over 20 hours of game time. I honestly wasn’t expecting to love this device so much and had intended to mostly use it on road trips and in waiting rooms. If you’re looking for a great handheld retro gaming experience that won’t break the bank, then look no further. I have to warn you though…now that I’ve purchased this one I’ve found myself scoping out other Anbernic devices. I’m debating on purchasing one of the vertical GameBoy style models to go with it.

Nostalgic fun
Nostalgic fun, like that it comes with a large selection of games from my childhood. Small but comfortable to hold, like the clever design for the shoulder buttons. The Linux OS works well, easy to navigate and like the flexibility of letting you choose between Retroarch or other emulators. Just wish it were a little more powerful, noticed some lag with Dreamcast and PSP. And while the small size is nice for portability, console games were designed for TVs, so some were harder to read on a screen this small

Solid handheld emulator console
Is it perfect? No, but it’s a solid price for a little emulator handheld that can do PS1 games. Mine had the audio go out but that seems to be a common software issue. But for the price, and it running Linux, I’m okay dealing with some software pains. I’ve tried out a few 3d PS1 games on it and they ran pretty smoothly. I also tried out a 3d N64 game on it but boy that did not run smoothly (I didn’t expect it to, it’s not officially supported, and N64 is notoriously hard to emulate), so if you’re getting this with the hopes of setting that up on an emulator custom on this unit, yeah it won’t work well. I 3d printed handles for it that snap on to make it more ergonomic, and flip around to snap over the screen and joysticks to protect them in transit. It’s smaller than a switch and great for travel.

Great Travel System
I’ve tried out multiple of these retro handhelds and this one holds up the best out of them. Battery life seems to last 4+ hours on most titles and there is a widespread library of games. I really enjoy the form factor of the system too because you can carry it around and put it in your pocket without too much headache. Brightness is very decent and games run smooth.

Nice little device. I installed custom firmware (Knulli) and loaded it up with playstation games and other games. Been playing Final Fantasy 7 on it. Good times.Remember to buy a pair of good microsd cards to replace the one it comes with.I also recommend setting the SaveRAM Autosave Interval to write your saved games to file periodically if you’re used to oldschool emulators. I chose 300 seconds to avoid too many write cycles on the microSD card.
