1)I have no issues with taking out the microsd cards, if you have fat sausage fingers then I can see how you might have an issue with taking the sd cards out. 2)The L2 and R2 are perfectly just fine since you won't really be actively using them and will just press them with the tips of your index finger hence why it's sloped down towards to the sides of the device(people will make replacement extended trigger buttons for sale on Etsy soon). This is mainly just a GBA handheld, where the only trigger you will press is R2 for speedup if anything and nothing more. 3)The volume rocker is perfectly fine since you don't ever need to lift your thumb off it to adjust the audio, you either rock it back and forth from center to left/right or you hold it in one direction(When changing audio in GBA I recommend holding the rocker instead of rocking it back and forth). 4)Color looks slightly different from one another because of plastic thickness, one has a thicker shell and one has a thinner shell. The only issue(not really an issue) I have is no official public release of Knulli for the 34XX yet.
Use a micro SD adapter as a tool to eject SD cards for 34xx. The best screen is still OG 35xx (1/4th ram) I own 35xx/H/SP & 34xx / 405v 35xx & 405v (both atomic purple) is a match made perfect. Also colors match right!
The r2/l2 buttons don’t bother me because they will be use for hotkeys only, if you wanna play r2/l2 heavy games for ps1 or n64 then this is not the handheld to buy
Since it has a 3:2 screen, most people are going to buy it for GBA. There is no need for the L2 and R2 buttons. Most people would only be using it for hot keys. Perfectly placed since they are not in the way. Sure you can play 4:3 games on it, but there are way better devices for that.
They should have moved the d-pad a few millimetres away to the left of the screen. It's too close to the screen. Aesthetically it would look better correctly centered between the screen and side of the handheld, but also ergonomically one's thumb would occasionally brush the screen leaving finger prints.
Complaint 1: how often do you use those extra sholder buttons... it's not upsetting me. Complaint 2: I was actually suprised at how the sd cards didnt slip right out... but ima be honest... if it doesnt slip and shoot across the room, ima call that a win so no complaint. Complaint 3: I agree the nib on the wheel does protrude a bit further than the original... Now, I dont mind that its a button like switch instead of a wheel, but yeah, that lil nib is annoying. I might sand that bitch down a bit. Complaint 4: yeah I dont care about the color, I got purple... wish they did white like the gba I had as a kid... so... yeah... thats my response I think my actual largest complaint is... its so light... I remember the original bneing heavier lol
I don't know about anyone else, but I could not stop focusing on how dirty the screen was. It's my opinion, but if you want to raise the production quality of your videos, one really easy way is to make the product your showcasing the focus of your video and not the greasy smudges on the product.
Honestly the fact that most of the gripes are easy to work around it's a great device, the L2 and R2 are definitely awkward and the biggest offender here but seeing as how this device plays GBA games the best you probably won't be using them much, for other systems you could just use the HDMI out funtion and a Bluetooth controllers like the RG01P and have a better time since that provides you with sticks for the other systems that needs it.
I’m waiting. 64 plus shipping for a h700 is too much I think; I think of the 34xx as a novelty than a good handheld. It’s probably not the CUBEXX or the 40xxv. The Powkiddy a30 split the anchor buttons. the old man probably gives awesome dating advice. You’re probably missing something not making that channel
So do you have any gripes/issues with this handheld?

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I appreciate hearing different perspectives.
3:54 I thought I was having a stroke
They made it for the 3:2 screen and nostalgia.
I just got mine yesterday and love it especially when it comes with sonic mania out of the box
What about the turtles?
No there's no shredder revenge TMNT well not out of the box maybe you can download it in a firmware update
Use a micro SD adapter as a tool to eject SD cards for 34xx.

I own 35xx/H/SP & 34xx / 405v
35xx & 405v (both atomic purple) is a match made perfect. Also colors match right!
Great Video. The box is aclone of the GBA box that they shipped with
Oh I never had an original or seen the box so thanks for adding that that's pretty cool
I'll take this over the KT-R1 any day
Much cheaper!
@deadfred69 and dont have to pay to fix all the issues and have the wprst customer service 😂
The r2/l2 buttons don’t bother me because they will be use for hotkeys only, if you wanna play r2/l2 heavy games for ps1 or n64 then this is not the handheld to buy
I have succumbed to this realization

I have one on the way! Thanks for the heads up. BTW I also review these bad boys!
That's awesome, I'd love to check out your channel!
@deadfred69 Thanks I appreciate it. I found a few of your videos that I want to check out

I second that one and a half thumbs up
I don’t know I really like it. Small but good.
The volume rocker shouldn't be a concern if you don't hold the console like a psychopath
Guilty as charged!

so... yeah... thats my response

Thanks love hearing your feedback and yeah I appreciate hearing different viewpoints so thank you
If they drop a original Glacier color I may have to order a second GBA from Anbernic
@Eragonfrost guess they heard you

You’re right, it does look pretty bad.
When it comes to the color I see literally no difference
Yeah I didn't think the camera could pick it up and it's very subtle
Honestly the fact that most of the gripes are easy to work around it's a great device, the L2 and R2 are definitely awkward and the biggest offender here but seeing as how this device plays GBA games the best you probably won't be using them much, for other systems you could just use the HDMI out funtion and a Bluetooth controllers like the RG01P and have a better time since that provides you with sticks for the other systems that needs it.
Yeah, you’re definitely right about the HDMI out being useful.

Oh lord. Good thing I'm married because I don't know if I could handle his advice on that but yeah that could be an interesting Channel
