RG40XX H Review + RG35XX H differences? 

Awesome 👌 I love the RGXX handhelds. What will you be playing mostly on it?

@@batpixel A little of everything to be honest but MAME, Mega Drive and Playstation are probably played the most.

Oh cool. Let me know how you like it 👌

Me too, I've been watching these retro handheld videos for awhile and finally decided to pick one up. Can't wait to tinker with it. Got it to hold me over till I can get something more powerful.

​@Chaotikmusic yeah I've been keeping my eye on more powerful ones too

My apologies 😂 I was so focused on the subject, I forgot to test my might. In my next handheld video, I'll play some for ya 🥷🔥❄️🥷

Thank you. I'm glad it was helpful 🦇🎮

Yeah it's so obvious across the tech industry haha iPhone upgrades is the biggest ongoing joke. You can get more powerful chips for retro handhelds around the $200 range which I'm sure you already know about. But when these chips drop to the under $100 devices that run N64 & Dreamcast smoothly I'll be happy. But of course, then there's GameCube.. I'll get back on my wheel now.. Yours truly, -Hampixel

I've upgraded to the 40 because the 35 is simply too small for my hands. Also the placement of key buttons is so much better on the 40.

Thank you 🦇

Welcome to the channel! 🦇🎮 Yes, the extra storage card will likely break lol they are good to get backups from, but some of the games that come on them don't work properly. So best case scenario is just the 64GB and build your own game libraries with reliable cards

@@batpixel Thank you! Also, as a newbie to these retro handhelds, what is your recommendations as a first time buyer who knows nothing about custom firmwares etc, and just wants to buy a pick up and play retro handheld console? What one should I go for, as from what I've seen and read, the RG40XX H and the RG35XX H are the best ones for a beginner? Thanks

It's interesting you mention that, because I have 3 good recent options. Basically, usually handhelds come with very unreliable SD cards which break, so the pick-up-and-play aspect is risky in the long-term. That is why people install software on reliable SD cards. So in saying that, I have recently discovered these 3 reliable options for pick-up-and-play: The RG35XX SP & the RG40XX come with a reliable SD card (a blue card named Kioxia which originates from Toshiba) and also I recently reviewed a handheld named the TrimUI Smart Pro that you can order with Surwish CrossMix OS custom firmware, which is on a very reliable SanDisk SD card for a more customizable experience (On MECHdiy's website, you can buy the CrossMix SD card & the TrimUI as a package)

@@batpixel Thank you so much for your help! I've just seen that on Aliexpress, Anbernic are now using the same SD card for the extra loaded games (256gb = 11k games) Furthermore they are using the same SD card for the 35XX H version too. If this is to be the case (no surprises lol) then shall I still opt for the 40XX H version with 11k games? Thanks again my friend

It's a fun feature for sure 😄

Here it is. I use it with my ASUS ROG Ally (Windows 11) and my retro handhelds: amzn.to/3ZjkI30

Thank you

Yes I show disabling it in the video. Just go into your settings

You can alter the brightness as well - I'm running mine at 25% and they still look great.
