I wish I could be a kid growing up with this type of technology. Young me would be drooling over this thing.
I feel like we wouldn’t appreciate it though.
Same. New Kids have it made
@@scottgilbert3286 exactly, my son doesn't even like to play games on a 2d screen at all, only on a valve index vr headset
Kids are all obsessed with TikTok and Fortnite unfortunately...
@@Zinkolo well on that front at least I'm extremely lucky, he doesn't use a smartphone nor social media, and prefers spending every afternoon with me, shooting at the range
You like the button layout so much, it had to be said twice in a row!
Glitch in the Matrix :)
more like three times in a row
5:32 he really likes it 😂
This was not a glitch in the matrix, shhhhush the frick up!!
😂😉
I just took delivery on the 353V from Amazon which came with a 64 gig micro sd. This is my first handheld console and I am frankly quite impressed. My 61 year old tired eyes have no problem with the screen. However, I am going to try wearing reading glasses, too.
Unit was already set up and boot right into Linux. Controls came pre-configured in Retroarch. I was playing N64 Donkey Kong Country right after I powered it on.
Build quality seems pretty good
I'm eagerly awaiting more news on the 505, but I'm also interested in the mystery "Miyoo Mini" style device. Honestly, if it's this same chip minus the sticks I may still pick it up. The ability to run shaders and filters with rewind turned on is super satisfying on SNES and below. That would be my "toss in the bag" and travel device.
Mr. Prime your review background is awesome - 4:30 😄
I've had mine for a while and didn't know about Anbernic's front end for Android. Thanks man!
Great video as always. I heard you like the button layout. That true?
Great job on the review.
Really like the work you do.
Good video! Your title says 353P when you meant 353V :) I just bought one, still waiting on it from Amazon!
Ordered one yesterday, can't wait to get it! Already own the RP2+ and miyoo mini but the menu system is what sold me. So excited... got to play my SteamDeck to ease that long wait.
Have you gotten it yet? How is it??
@@rSCommpetitive I enjoy playing on it much more than anything else. I finally discovered OpenBor gaming through this device. For some reason Jelos doesn't work for me (corruption error and no drive letter assigned in windows 10). Worthy of the #2 spot below RP3.
Solid color gamut. Wish we could get an AMD based SBC like this. Play some full speed GameCube and Vita on it.
Nice button layout!
Ordered the VS. comes in, in a couple days. Wanted to play DS, GB, GBA, etc. PS1… maybe. But nothing beyond that. Thanks for the video.
God I love how all of the color choices look! Why aren’t more people making clear and clear purple!?!?
because it's atrocious
I really do like the button layout here
I'm loving that the N64 is getting more and more easier to emulate with each progressing device. Its almost on par with the SNES and other consoles in that era as far as performance is concerned.
And hell, the Dreamcast is reaching new strides as well. that's just amazing!
I'll buy once gamecube gets a stable handheld. They're on the brink but nothing I've found is solid.
@@bradleymiller437 steam deck
You can do all of that easily using your phone. I used to do it but got tired of using my ozone so I bought this model and ot works pretty well.
Just ordered and I am so excited
I'm considering it, how do you like yours after 3 months???
5:32 looks like u really like the button layout twice😂..
5:32 you really like that button layout lol. You did this on purpose didn't you mr prime?
I have this system and it became the 2nd next gen hand held leaderboard of mine
This is cool, but I wish we could get some new design options. I would love a small slim clamshell device with grip contours underneath and high quality front firing speakers.
Big fan of the single speaker. One of the speakers on my RG351MP gave out which is noticable on GBC and Snes
Good review looks like a neat little unit.
I don't love the form factor, but it's not bad and the specs are decent, especially for that price, and the thought of it being a triple purpose device excites me. I would run Android and Linux both, because as a developer I could test things with both on one device with ease. Not to mention, if I couldn't get something to work I could at least attempt to write it myself.
Ordered an atomic purple one of these 2 days ago. So excited.
Might want to update the video title - it says 353P not V. Great video as always
it would be really cool if you could test some multiplayer gaming with this little unit.
5:35 I feel like he really likes the button layout there. :P 🤣🤣
I like the DMG form factor, but I'm not sure how much I like it for higher games that require thumb sticks and bumpers. I kinda like it for GB and GBC style games.
I just got mine yesterday and it's not too bad, definitely fatiguing after a little while but manageable otherwise.
Edit: about a week later and the discomfort isn't there anymore. It's been a real long while since I've had a game controller of any kind in my hands so that's probably why I had some fatiguing.
This button layout is so bad. How do u use analog sticks? Wtf... Also 120 dollars for 2gb ram and ips display?
@@Fioletowooki so I have to say, it's actually pretty comfortable. Initially I had some discomfort but honestly, I haven't played games in about a decade so maybe it suggestively had something to do with my hands hurting. I've since had no serious problems with it in the week I've been using it. Granted, there may be others that you'd prefer to have or find more comfort in, but it's less cramped than it appears IRL.
I whis this was a little roomier in the joysticks region but as far as vertical handhelds go can you really do any better?
Nice vid n please do more with aya neo air pro 🔥💯 n the title has a error with the "p" not being a "v" but beside that n amazing video ill keep watching your content but plz more aya neo air pro especially the 32gb model 🔥🙏🏻🙏🏻👾
Definetly going to pick this up, gotty try it out with streaming PC games...
Nice review, thank you. May I ask what the startup time is from power off (not sleep). Thanks!
I guess somebody really, really, really likes the button layout.
Went with the purple.
Looked at a lot of the rg353p videos to get a feel of this one.
So I know exactly what I'm getting into.
Love the color and form factor. Anything more than n64 I have a steam deck to emulate GameCube and stuff.
Only thing not so sure of is battery life. Fingers cross it's decent.
As for battery life, the PS5 DS controller uses a 1300 mAh battery and lasts for 16 hours with haptics/vibrations off and lights on dim at full charge. This has a 3200 mAh battery, which could easily last more than 24 hours.
I live the form of this. It's exactly my style. Would pay upwards of $300 for this with a little bit more power.
This looks amazing. I really would like to have one of these in the future. And it plays all the emulation and retro systems I care about; I'm not going to expect PS2 and beyond (after all, I still have a functional PS2 and I have a PC for anything beefier), so something that's retro-emulation is perfect for me.
Your viewers are loving the firehose output . . . 👍
With these specs, are you able to use run-ahead for SNES and below to reduce latency?
I hope Anbernic comes out with a clamshell device, but with 2 analog sticks and L3+R3.
I've been waiting on such a design for my whole life.
Agreed! I usually hate analog sticks on a pocketable device but if it's a clamshell then they a covered up when the device is closed.
Gameboy SP form factor needs to make a come back
This video made me take off my headphones multiple times, sounds like the sound is coming out of the screen! lol
5:33, yeah I do really like the button layout yeah I really do yeah I really do.
The screen on this looks really good.
I love the form factor of this, but those shoulder buttons and analog sticks seem too cramped to use for long periods. Glad I got the RG353P which has comfortable stacked shoulder buttons and the analog sticks are placed nicely far apart. JELOS makes the device even more enjoyable.
I was actually worried about the shoulder buttons. But i ended up getting one for $12 brand new and tbh they really arent that bad when youre actually holding it. I actually use this now over my retroid pocket 2+ for every day use.
yo ETA, when are the 6800u mini pc's going to be available?
That colorway 😍😍
great little machine
Anbernick makes great handheld emulators. I have the 351V and I really enjoy it a lot.
351v lets Goo
I just got the 351v, can it play n64 and ps1 games easily?
These things are like playable retro game museums
Can you test game streaming on this device? Looks like it would be great for streaming from a local PC, I'm looking for a device to do just that. Can you see how the latency is on that kind of setup with this device?
edit: also, does the thing start to hurt your thumbs if you're playing a game that requires the joysticks for a couple hours?
Just got mine today.
So far so good.
Still messing with several bags and stuff. Wish it came with more ps1 games.😂
Heya Eta Prime, i noticed ya haven't used, or as far i notice, Parsec in a long time now, i wanted to let ya know they changed a lot and for the better i say, maybe it would be an idea to take another look at it? it even works great on Android, and i know cause i also use it on my Galaxy A71 phone.
I loved to play Ridge Racer 1&2 and WipeOut Pure on the PSP - would these games run 60fps on this machine?
I would be really interested in seeing Reset Collection set as a custom launcher in Android on this device. Reset Collection has launcher functionality built in now.
Hi, how does this chipset cope with harder to emulate n64 games like sm64/oot and especially Majoras mask. I`d like a cheaper handheld and I dont need anything past n64, but a really solid/stable n64 Performance is a must! Or would my money be better spent by waiting on something like the Retroid Pocked 3?
quick question... is this handheld able to do multi-player by connecting to other handhelds?
I think it's better to wait it out a little longer because the 3588 is an absolute beast and these devices will be incorporating it soon
When does it come out?
@@anthomatic42 there are already boards using the chip right now , they are just coming out now
For portable retro gaming, I would recommend the Pinephone with the keyboard accessorise and big SD card, and also I am using Mobian OS as well for my setup. You can even use a dock and hook it up to a TV or monitor
I'm VERY tempted to get the VS, since I'd only want it for the 16-bit and under consoles (nothing with 3D). It also looks more comfortable than the 351v and the increased pockatability is nice too.
Another $20 is a small price to pay for double the ram and the option of android, just incase in the future you became interested in expanding your catalogue. Just my opinion.
I know your post is old but did you get the RG35xx?
Nice
i liked the theme of the table very nice update i wish to see youre setup that you use to produce these master piece videos i am being serious you are one of the most creative youtuber i love thank you for everything 🤍
I'd expect this to be more of a direct competition to the miyoo mini they look pretty similar, I like that one a bit more because of what I would use a handheld like this for. I don't hate this one but the competition is a little strong I could get an RP3 or Miyoo Mini and they have better use cases this one just isnt very powerful unfortunately.
@goggles789 this one is probably a skip then I don't think ive picked up an anbernic system anyways as they always have better competitors for form factor and always have major flaws hope they change some things up with their next devices
I feel like up to psp is basically what you need for a very small gaming device. Anything above psp is sort of difficult to run and not as necessary.
I am a huge fan of handhelds but unfortunately there aren't any options here in India . Really waiting for Sony to launch a new powerful PSP or for valve to launch the steam deck here . I really feel jealous of the options that are available there in the us.
What about an Odin or Loki? Or doesn't AYN deliver to India, tooo?
same here in South Africa... ive been observing these products for almost two years now
Hi because there is so much choice of games is there an option to put likable games in a favourite folder. Can you tell how it's done thanks. Also do the games have in built cheats? Thanks again
Favorite handheld has been the 351v. Don't really know that this one is enough of an upgrade to switch.
this one is smaller, to fit in your pocket. skip it if you dont care about that
5:30 did a portal open? 😵💫
Is there an enthusiast forum or IRC or something for these Anbernic devices?
Not to nitpick but at 5:04 you stated it won't run 3ds but your thumbnail had oot3d as if you were "playing" it. Still a good video but misleading at the get-go.
I respect your hobby. I just got a question. Were is the appeal in these systems ? They all are basically the same and the play all the same old retro games. Why does one need so many gadgets that achieve the same thing ?
Lol, ETA’s hands stay cut up 😅
Hi! Would a Raspberry Pi 4 with 2GB of RAM perform better than the RG353P?
How does it do with SNES games that use chips?
I know a lot of these handhelds have issues with Star Fox and Yoshi's Island.
Is there anything similar (Gameboy shape/portability) on the market with better emulation performance?
I am looking for a smooth dreamcast & n64 experience but without much tweaking.
Can the CPU and GPU be overclocked? Just curious how far they can be pushed without having to worry about severe battery drain or throttling.
In my experience with the RG353P, even the smallest overclocks cause it to crash.
@@Heru3005 thanks!
5:32 - 5:37 , are you doing alright pal
Mild stroke at 5:33 lol
Damn, what's with the boom of handheld devices? Is this new or have my eyes been closed for a long time?
The screen is inferior to the 351V btw, had the opportunity to test and compare. More washed out colors, less contrast, feels like it has a green-ish tint (at least my unit).
Thumbnail says "RG352V", i thought for a second there was some secret inbetween device.
When can we expect devices like this but using FPGA architecture to get 100% speed and accuracy?
Retro Game Corps showed in his video that PS2 is indeed running (at least a few games).
dope.
I'd like to see how some Linux games would run on it
If it was just a bit bigger it be so much better.
They really need to get rid of the bezels. It makes a huge difference on these small screen devices.
Video does not do the screen justice. The screen on this device is absolutely gorgeous.
These comments like yours sell me more on this, I'm heavily considering this 🤔
Would have liked to see saturn emulation
im waiting for the next version with smooth ps2 and gamecube emulation whenever that comes down the line
3 years
@@gontsekganyago4079 YIKES!!! i'll pass 😂😂
Does it come preloaded with games or do I have to use my own roms?
how does the RG353 series compare to the RG552?
What would you say is better the anbernic rg353v or the Miyoo mini v3? With better I mean user friendly. Feel free to list other bonuses for one over the other. Hope to hear back.
please test runahead for these retro handhelds
Does this device work for cloud gaming? Like GeForce Now?
I wish mobile phones were versatile as this device (run linux from sdcard )
mister prime, can u test LENOVO ideapad d330 tablet/laptop? (8gb ram + 128 emmc version)
5:32 😁
If you side-load Netflix, Disney+, Google TV, can you download movies to watch offline?
Niceeeeeeee
Is it similar preference with a fire HD 10 ?
