    The RG353V has blown me away with what it's capable of. As something that's about a year old, there's not much to complain about. The RG353V still holds up with some of the best handhelds that are out there today. Even with everything that's being released, the chipset holds strong. You can emulate all the way up to Dreamcast, N64, PlayStation, and so much more. I'm beginning to understand why the RG353V is so loved.

    I went in with no real budget set and ended up going for the Anbernic RG353V.
    It feel like one of the closest replicas to the gameboy that can play a ton more games thanks to the dual sticks.

    I love these longform videos, I hope you do more like this. This was really helpful, but I will say 240P just looks so bad. 480p is a night and day difference to me. I really wish this thing had just a little bit stronger CPU so I could upscale n64 games to at least 480p with no FPS loss because this is my favorite design for one of these handhelds. Also the touch will work for DS on the android side but not with the linix side

    I have the RG353M model. I prefer the form factor over the RG353V. Honestly the aluminum body, the Hall effect sticks and running Daijisho on it have made it my daily driver. It just didn’t get the love it deserved by reviewers. Would love to see it put up against the new RG35XX H.

    Personally I prefer the rg351v over the rg353v because it looks more like a gameboy, and If need I twin sticks I'd rather use my rg405v which has a better processor that can actually make use of the controls. That being said every handheld is cute in it's own way.

    My friend what do you mean by it being almost a year old? Isn't this system meant to emulate decade old games? Handhelds that could do it 5 years ago could do it 1 year ago and can do it presently. I don't know the point here brother?

  • @Patrick-bn5rp
    @Patrick-bn5rp 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hate to disagree with the thumbnail, but I don't think this device has held up well. It's still one of the nicer vertical handhelds you can get, but as far as actual functional gaming sustems go, when it comes to price versus performance, the retroid pocket 2S is just better.
    Hall effect sticks, dual firing speakers, a touch screen on the 99 dollar model, (not a thing on the similarly priced linux only version of the 353), a stronger processor, and it has analog hall effect triggers, too.

      @@baldlyrudy I do think there's a place in the market for the 353v, but it's going to need a price cut for it to remain competitive, I feel. I think 50-65 dollars would be a nice sweet spot. It would put the device in the "giftable" price range, like the R36S, but more premium feeling, in exchange for it costing slightly more.

      ​​​@@eatereater6312Well... The R36S is like 50 dollars cheaper.
      And for the price of 99 dollars, you can get a retroid pocket 2S 3g model.
      It can do everything the 353V can do, but with a horizontal form factor, analog triggers, dual speakers, and Hall effect sticks. Oh, right. The 2S has better performance, too.

    Never understood the reason to have two analog sticks, the right one is useless, for the games you can play on it. If the device can run AA games from , PS2 - Gamecube, than sure, it needs them, but in this case, is a waste of space, one on the left was enogugh.
