The ANBERNIC RG35XX H Is An Underrated Handheld 

Underated by whom?

I love my RG35XX H, it's the one, out of dozens of handhelds I have, that I take with me when travelling. Though a good reason not to buy it might be that Anbernic is just about to release the RG40XX H which has the same form factor, a bigger screen and stacked shoulder buttons.

I just bought one Friday and it'll get here tomorrow. I'm excited.

The RG35xx winner for me. Over the many handhelds I have, the H is still my go to for it's power level. The RG35XX H and my Retroid Pocket 4 Pro are the two daily drivers.

Can I just say you were the only reviewer that I’ve watched that reviews these devices and zooms in so we can actually see the gameplay and I appreciate that. I don’t know why these other reviewers have their cameras zoomed way out to where you can hardly see anything.

I finished Metroid Zero Mission on this thing and currently working my way through Chrono Trigger. It's great.

It's a BEAST! Mine arrives tomorrow!

This one is pretty comfortable for sure, it's a pretty good competition for devices in its price range. Great video bud 👍🏾

Mine was delivered last week. Absolutely loving it so far. I'm still in the process of adding more Roms.

I bought a few of these on aliexpress it's around $50 there. Neat handheld for ps1 and below, looking forward to rg40xxh

Does it heat just like RG40XX?

Its my first anbernic system and I just got mine in the mail. Updated the os and changed the theme. The Naomi games run well too. Comes with a good selection of games. The Dreamcast runs well as you said. Very good portable retro handheld.

I bought a Anbernic rg35xxH and in three days it started rapid discharge and would not charge. The Anbernic charging horror stories aren't exclusive to the 35xxH either. Gambling on getting e-waste that can catch on fire leaves nothing underrated. Didn't get a refund either

How to upscale 2.7x on the mgba core ?

Its really great - i have repaced my RP4pro with the rg35xx h

Sadly seen a few (including the one I got my partner this last week) with screen issues where the ribbons are damaged causing lines across the screen.

I want to use Mame32 Roms, will this do it?

Love that you're doing an out of box review

I’ve been playing a bunch of PSP games and have no issues. As long as you use the right settings you’ll be fine. I’ve actually just got into Monster Hunter the 3rd English Port HD textures and it runs extremely well. I found a video that helped with the settings and I have no lag or stutters.

Howdy hey! I'm interested in buying one myself and absolutely LOVE the video you made here, but you did accidentally have one key flaw with your handheld. The operating system that it comes with out of the box needs to be manually updated to the latest version in order to fix the game rooms problem and stuff like that. Besides that though, wonderful video you made here and I would love to see more out of your channel! I'm subscribing 😁👍

I purchased one of these for my son and I'm having issues with it not wanting to turn on. It just stays in the Anbernic loading screen. Anyone else have this issue?

Is it better than r36s in terms durability

I have the rg353ps, which one has more power?

Honestly I don't know which to go for so many have been released,would love one of these handhelds.

The grand turismo back music is gold!

Mine arrived today got it for £35 from ali express 😎

What happened to the miyoo a30 I thought you were going to do it

Can you play while charging?

I have one of these, and the sticks give it an edge over the others but I get cramp in my right hand when I use it. This doesn't happen with the 35XX SP.

Playing Valkyria Chronicles 2 & 3 and Monster Hunter on it. A modded PSP is very expensive where i am from.

I doubt I'll find... I'm going to throw a chat GPT at you to see how difficult it was to find this game, and the worst part is that I still don't even know what it is, but here’s the description, and it's veeeeeeeeeeeeeery long. **Detailed game description:** **Phase 1: Airplane** * The game starts with the character crossing a rock that divides a crack in the ground. * The player finds a box with gears that need to be fitted correctly to progress. * Through clues and objects found, the character discovers that they fell from an airplane and needs to collect items to continue their journey. **Phase 2: Pyramid** * After the airplane phase, the player encounters a mysterious pyramid. * Using objects collected in the airplane or on the ground, the goal is to find a way to enter the pyramid. * Inside the pyramid, the character is trapped and needs to light blue flames on four pillars to escape. * Once they manage to exit the pyramid, the player enters a dense forest. **Phase 3: Forest** * The forest presents various challenging puzzles with levers and gears. * Solving these enigmas is crucial for the character to climb a sort of mountain. **Phase 4: Mountain and Bridge** * After climbing the mountain, the player needs to cross a bridge. * Halfway through, the bridge breaks, and the character is saved by a mysterious figure. * With the rescue, the game demonstration ends, and the player is directed to purchase the full version. **Additional Information:** * The game was played on a Philco notebook. * The operating system was Windows 8. * The experience indicates that this game is a demo, with an option to buy the full version at the end. I doubt I'll find...

does it have touch screen

The h is great for the on the go factor. I have beaten super Mario world on this as well as snatcher and mario 64 ds. Psp seemed like a bad idea but I've been playing peace walker and it's running pretty great. Im considering custom firmware but no option is convenient even ehen it cones to updating the stockl operating system. Definitely buy this one even if you have a steam deck because its simply powerful abd pocketable. I've been waiting for something this capable and ergonomic to hit the market for years; the other really neat looking handhelds before this were eith overpriced or extremely underpowered. This is going to push things forward from here and we should expect some great handheld emulation hardware as well as software. Get ready with your cash because the golden era is almost here.

I would say the TrimUI Smart Pro is the best handheld under $70.

How much for the mini game boy advance

I have three devices with this chipset and between them I prefer the regular 35XX+. The shoulder button switches on the H are repulsive and the directional snapping on the analog sticks is so bad it makes them kinda pointless.

I picked this up over the Trimui SmartPro. Overtime that unit overheats. If I want to game on a TV I can because of the mini hdmi port.

Underrated is an understatement.

I got this over the sp because of the analog sticks and if I take my retroid pocket 4 pro out side and break it I would be hurt this goes with me when the wife has to run in "real quick" . Pays what I need it to mostly gba and ps1

I just got one... paid 33 bucks on a special from ali express but I'm going end up giving it to my nephews the screen is just too small and its just too cramped for bigger hands. Heck wish I bought a few more... for the price its killer and I had a great time playing some classic consoles and arcade games.

wish it didn't have those analog sticks. proper horizontal gba machine would have been great.

Can it play Crysis?

Yes. Cuz I still use it homie

I don’t think it’s underrated though, the latest CFW seems to be focused on that chipset and it all started when this one released. Hated the clicky shoulder and there was no good CFW at the time so stuck with my MM+, no regerts

Nice video - I actually prefer the N64 z-button be mapped to L2, not to L1 as your prefer…maybe my grip on the device is different than yours. Cheers.

This decice will be better if it has 6 face button layout, a better chipset and a higher resolution.

I bought last aliexpress discount. I was a miyoo mini plus user.

Isn’t it the most universally loved and praised handheld?

I own my Powkiddy RGB10 Max my favorite was Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga Gameboy Advance, Mario & Donkey Kong

5:03 name gamer ? console ?

underrated is a hot take lol. people are eating them up. hey he got me to click and comment though. if anbernic had made the 40xx just a liiiiiiittle more pocketable with a couple mm off the sides and bottom chin they would have gotten me to buy two devices. would want the sp as well but i've been holding on for the miyoo flip since it was announced. although im almost positive the flip will have its issues so ill be waiting a little while to see those get fleshed out lol

Plenty of PSP games run perfectly well on my RG35XX H actually.

I gave mine away. They should've stopped at xx plus

Mine stopped working and yes I used a 5V charger…

The xx family has just grown further... Video already outdated, missing one comparison item lol. Crazy anbernic... But nice video nonetheless

Important note: the OS Micro SD card can only be 64gb max. No limit on the second card. If your OS card arrives unbranded, purchase a new card from a reputable manufacturer. unbranded Micro SD cards have very high failure rates.

mario kart and 64 on it out of the box?

Had to save up to buy 351m then a few weeks later they released more powerful consoles. I'll wait once they have something that can run PS3 games. 😭

Got mine a week ago for 45 USD. While the form factor is great and Knulli makes the experience better, I definetely prefer my Miyoo Mini+ for its more portable size, the superior Onion OS and, most of all, the amazing screen. The screen in the RG35XXH is very washed out and low quality.

The trigger buttons are annoying, I'd rather have a 6 face button layout.

My brain heard that as Wii ka systems

The h barely came out and was over shadowed by the other devices, such as sp

Actually most PSP games can be played with some sacrifices but big ones like God of War, GTA dont run so great

There’s 40XX H now

Nah. Miyoo Mini is still the best. Firmware is clunky, cfw are not really there yet, pretty much all are early beta versions. I'd say get rg353ps if you want up to dreamcast and install arkos/jelos and you will be all set.

Rg353m > rd35xx h.

THIS

old device my bro retro dodo behind again, block me here too haha

Stupid video title. The Anbernic is universally highly rated.

It's as if the 353m never existed...WTF?!

What underrated?

If I wanted a pocketable device I'd pick the rg353m or 405m. I can't see the point in buying this inferior product that's worse than any 353 models

It's 'aitch'. There's no 'h' at the start of the word.

If it can play GameCube then yes if not it’s not worth getting ever

Is it just me, or does this guy's voice Peirce your eardrums ? The other guy should is much easier to listen to.
