@CornyPuddle is the winner of the first R36S giveaway. Would you prefer white or purple? We will work out the shipping arrangements privately. What do you guys think of the new red R36S? Which color R36S should I install the white buttons in? This is where I ordered the translucent red: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_mq6IXig This is the seller I encourage you to support. He has been very kind to me: s.click.aliexpress.com/e/_m08h0Fq
Happy to do it bro! I appreciate your support on the channel. This is my first giveaway so I’m not sure what the best method is for providing the mailing address you’d like me to send it to. For this first giveaway, just email me at ogtechnick@gmail.com with the shipping info and I’ll ship it out to you ASAP. Before I send it out I’ll confirm with you here that I actually received your message as opposed to some random person pretending to be you. (Soon I’ll get more acclimated to Discord and will probably have a much more modern method of communication. For now let’s just keep it old school.)
That’s why I really need to stop collecting them. They keep coming out with more colors. I wanted them all when there were 3 available. Now there are at least 10 colors available. 😅
My #1 color choice for any handheld is solid black, but I do enjoy the translucent colors as well. I ordered the Arc D instead of the Ark S despite not really needing Android on the device, specifically because they didn’t release the Linux only version in black.
Having already spent a week with the transparent purple model, I am now eagerly awaiting the delivery of it's transparent red counterpart. Congratulations to CornyPuddle! 👍
I got the purple one, but really wanted the blue one ,but heard it was in a very limited area. I felt like I should've not gotten it cause I have other ones and am on a budget. However ,I got it because I was using the rgb20s in bed when I couldn't sleep and found that it felt unbalanced while playing on my back with the joysticks I'm that position. Both have an excellent screen with great brightness range --- good for nighttime use
Gave my r36s to my nephew. I picked up 2 rg35xx plus and have a headache trying different os. Arkos is was so easy to flash and worked well. I miss my r36s 😭
Thanks for the video. I am from the UK but don't need giveaways to enjoy your channel. :) Its just good to see all the devices you try out. It saves me lots of money cos I would be buying far more. Now I just buy the ones I think are decent you review. I already have my R36S its cool but I am really loving the SP one at the min
I've been thinking about picking one up off and on for a few months. I'd probably pick any color and I don't actually think I mind at all what color they are. I guess a darker colored or grayish one would be preferred. I'm interested in winning one so I can play something on the go.
I still prefer the color variations - standard, I think it's lovely and I prefer the translucent purple color. I also really liked the new translucent green color, with Grips - Lime Covers (From Switch) it looks cute..
I kind of think the red R35S you showed in the lineup at the start is a kids color, I ordered a v90 years ago and if I recall right instead of sending the color I asked for, it took months to arrive and then it was about the same red color. I just said oh well, and I played it occasionally. I mostly played games I'd beaten a dozen times before back in the day. It quit working a while ago and I started to wonder what's worth picking up since. I got enough enjoyment out of it.
The console is really cool, I recently dropped mine when taking it out of the closet from just over a meter away, luckily it was inside with the bag that fell off the corner and there was no damage at all. 😅 I'm very careful with my things, I highly recommend a bag..!
Congratulations to the winner. I really like that translucent red; but, I've got to say that my favorite colors are still white and that dove gray. My first GBA was white and lots of tech was gray back in the day. IIRC, wasn't the OG PlayStation light gray? Put some PS buttons on one and pretend it's a refugee from the better timeline where Sony launched a PlayStation Portable in the '90s.
Not personally a big fan of translucent consoles, honestly. The solid white is on;y one I think is particularly aesthetically appealing, though retro beige would be a better color for my preferences.
Damn, when i bought one to myself, during summersale, there was only 3 colour options. Now i'm obessed with green one and orange while using purple that i have :D
Haha. I know what you mean. It’s such a good device for the price, and it’s tempting to pick up another one whenever a nicer color is released. Purple still looks cool though. I’d suggest not giving in to another one and saving that money for the next guilty pleasure that comes your way.
I had a feeling this would be a color you’d like. I remember the orange one did look a lot darker in the listings. I think both look much nicer than the photos/renders made them look.
The white buttons would look good on the see-through orange for sure, that would be first choice. White on white would look clean. The see-through red looks like candy, I like it. Does the orange shine under a UV blacklight?
I’m not sure but it sure looks like it would. Got me tempted to dig through my garage for my old 50” bedroom backlight from way back in college. I can’t believe I still have it.
The red looks very nice ,but I think most of these would look better if the colors were solid rather than clear. Also IMHO the internals are not attractive on these things.
Yes. I think every R36S I’ve received has the Mario games. I’m very tempted to get a refurbished or just used 3DS. Not sure which model to go with though. I have a 2DS and love it but I want clamshell and bigger screens. I’m also considering the 2DSXL.
My Chinese friend is the one who sells the white R33S. I have a white and a purple. If anybody is ever interested in getting one let me know and I can most likely get you a discount.
@@OGTechNick I read in the retrohandhelds discord that there might have been a switch between screens and since trans red is the latest model and considering your vast collection you might be able to check
For now the giveaway is limited to the continental US, but all you need to do to be considered is comment and make it known you are interested. There are no rules. As my channel grows I’ll be able to do bigger random international giveaways. For now, I am just randomly choosing people who stand out to me as friendly channel supporters.
Good question. You would think they’d make them readily available with the popularity of these devices. I haven’t seen any batteries specifically listed to be used with the R36S. I’ve purchased a replacement battery for an Anbernic RG35XX with the same JST connection, and I’m pretty sure it would fit, but I’m not sure if it would be a good idea to try. If anybody else knows of a source for a battery replacement for the R36S please let us know here.
Yo could you hook me up with the black one. I’m 16 and this could be my first handheld. I’ve studying and diving into the family around r36s, rgb20-30s

What do you guys think of the new red R36S?
Which color R36S should I install the white buttons in?
This is where I ordered the translucent red:

It's really interesting how it's red until you put it right next to the orange one, then it just seems like a darker orange.
Anyone else?
I was thinking the same thing when I watched it back and saw the comparison
Thank you so much bro! I'll take the purple one. I think the white buttons would look pretty sick in the orange model
Happy to do it bro!

@OGTechNick I sent it. I put the subject as cornypudd1e
@CornyPuddle cool. I just replied to it. I’ll ship it out tomorrow and email you the tracking number.
Never knew there was that many colors 😮
But congrats to cornypuddle
That’s why I really need to stop collecting them. They keep coming out with more colors. I wanted them all when there were 3 available. Now there are at least 10 colors available. 😅
The translucent red is beautiful Ö Would love to own a red one !
That's quite the collection! The only gadget I've double-dipped on is the RGB30. Went from dark blue to the bright green.
The solid white and clear oranges are my favorites. Especially the white one looks super clean.
Genuinely that ice blue with the white buttons is goddamn fantastic, that's absolutely the best option for the white button set 😍
I prefer the solid colours.
I don't get the love for all the transparent models.
My #1 color choice for any handheld is solid black, but I do enjoy the translucent colors as well. I ordered the Arc D instead of the Ark S despite not really needing Android on the device, specifically because they didn’t release the Linux only version in black.

Cool. I think it looks a lot better in person than it did in the listing. The transparent red looks great!
Congrats man, as far as I've heard, these things are great, might just grab one for myself if I could!
I got the purple one, but really wanted the blue one ,but heard it was in a very limited area. I felt like I should've not gotten it cause I have other ones and am on a budget.

That’s awesome. Thanks for supporting the channel, my friend
The white buttons would look so good with the transparent orange model
I want this translucent red❤.. looks so cool!! R36S is the king budget handheld
I've been thinking about picking one up off and on for a few months. I'd probably pick any color and I don't actually think I mind at all what color they are. I guess a darker colored or grayish one would be preferred. I'm interested in winning one so I can play something on the go.
I've seen the R36s and wanted one but I have sooooo many handhelds. Cool that there are so many. 😊
I prefer opaque myself, but the purple one reminds me of the transparent Game Boy SP
The black one is my favorite but the clear red is beautiful!! The white buttons will look dope in the clear green one
I still prefer the color variations - standard, I think it's lovely and I prefer the translucent purple color. I also really liked the new translucent green color, with Grips - Lime Covers (From Switch) it looks cute..
Love the channel, thank you for the giveaway opportunities. Would like to see the white buttons on the new clear red.
I kind of think the red R35S you showed in the lineup at the start is a kids color, I ordered a v90 years ago and if I recall right instead of sending the color I asked for, it took months to arrive and then it was about the same red color.

Congrats and enjoy !!!!
Ha watching this again it reminds me of those cheap clear lighters they sell sell on the gas station counters!😁
😂 💯
Now that I’m thinking about it….the transparent red with the while buttons would be a better fit. It’ll give that classic “Coca Cola’ look to it.
Congrats to the winner❤
These are really cool clones and have been getting good reviews hopefully I'll be ordering one soon too
Awesome collection!! I really like the transparent sky blue! I ordered a see thru purple one, but they sent a white one instead 😞
The console is really cool, I recently dropped mine when taking it out of the closet from just over a meter away, luckily it was inside with the bag that fell off the corner and there was no damage at all. 😅 I'm very careful with my things, I highly recommend a bag..!

clear red looks awesome. seems like amazing little machine
I've really been enjoying MM+, I wonder how this compares to it, love the transluscent purple color.
Not personally a big fan of translucent consoles, honestly. The solid white is on;y one I think is particularly aesthetically appealing, though retro beige would be a better color for my preferences.
Hey 👋 i would love to be able to get one of the giveaway bro ,hopefully its me next time 🎉
Mine is white, but i like the black one with the white buttons kit. Blue and green are nice too.
Cool. I think I’m going with the black and white 😉
Don't have any of the retro consoles, but it would be great to have one to get back to my childhood memories..
Damn, when i bought one to myself, during summersale, there was only 3 colour options. Now i'm obessed with green one and orange while using purple that i have :D
Haha. I know what you mean. It’s such a good device for the price, and it’s tempting to pick up another one whenever a nicer color is released. Purple still looks cool though. I’d suggest not giving in to another one and saving that money for the next guilty pleasure that comes your way.
I thing red one looks so cool
It's the promised fire red :o Some people thought the orange one looks like that when it first appeared on listings.
I had a feeling this would be a color you’d like.
I remember the orange one did look a lot darker in the listings. I think both look much nicer than the photos/renders made them look.
The white buttons would look good on the see-through orange for sure, that would be first choice. White on white would look clean. The see-through red looks like candy, I like it. Does the orange shine under a UV blacklight?
I’m not sure but it sure looks like it would. Got me tempted to dig through my garage for my old 50” bedroom backlight from way back in college. I can’t believe I still have it.
Nice. I hope more youtubers with all these retro consoles do giveaways as well.
man this is dope congrats man
Hell I'd like any color if I could own one
i love the purple looks super clean
That blue is gorgeous
Just a thought, white back plate and battery cover on orange front face with white buttons.
That’s a great idea!
I’d be happy to take a white or purple hopefully
The red looks very nice ,but I think most of these would look better if the colors were solid rather than clear. Also IMHO the internals are not attractive on these things.
Almost as many colors as the OG GBC, noice!
Orange & white creamsicle sounds cool 😊
I think the first will be black with white buttons and the second will be the creamsicle ❤
Subscribed … love the looks of the purple.
Orange with white buttons!
White on the black console
You’re the second to recommend white on black. Yeah, I think that’ll look really cool
i wish i could give that orangeee to my nephew. he asked me about this, and i said its not your typical game to play. lmao
Try the white buttons on the black one❤
I think you guys have me convinced. The first set of white buttons is going in the black one ❤️
clear red is crazy fire
Damn i wouldve loved to win that all white model i just got into this retro video game consoles watched a bunch of vids but i have not bought anything
The last handhelds i bought were the Powkiddy V10 and used Nintendo 3ds XL. Is Mario preinstalled on this micro sd cards?
Yes. I think every R36S I’ve received has the Mario games. I’m very tempted to get a refurbished or just used 3DS. Not sure which model to go with though. I have a 2DS and love it but I want clamshell and bigger screens. I’m also considering the 2DSXL.
Oooooo I want one
Translucent black is look good
Lol sucks I'm a few days behind in videos because of my vacation. Just got to the video where you say you think you'll give a console away lol
No worries. More to come, my friend.
There is an all white R33S released by the same company but they are quite hard to find.
My Chinese friend is the one who sells the white R33S. I have a white and a purple. If anybody is ever interested in getting one let me know and I can most likely get you a discount.
Oh no missing transparent red and transparent green lol😂 orange with white looks great that’s what I did
creamsicle probably the best bet tho
I have all th3 colors even the clear red emerald green ocean blue etc
How do you feel about the blue and green? My favorite color is blue, so I’m tempted.
@@OGTechNick they both are pretty nice. But I was thinking the dark blue would look good with the white buttons and sticks!
@@OGTechNick also I've been wanting to tell you how much I loveee your channel! Keep it up
Now I’m even more tempted!
Thanks. I really appreciate the support!
hell yea
i love that transparent blue one
I really wanted one of these for my colection 😅
Damn, bros collection got me blushing
I have a a black one that now is almost completely white due to my dandruff falling on it 🤢
😂
I bought an orange one but the taxes were too high for my country and I had to return it unfortunately :(
I’m sorry to hear that. Are you in Brazil?
@@OGTechNick Yes. But I have an address in the US to receive my packages. I may go on my vacation in November!
@djwrahfael cool. Remind me before you go on vacation so I can consider you for whatever I might have to offer at the time
@@OGTechNick Thank you man. I'll let you know. Cheers! :)
hot fire bruh ❤
i like this machine i would love one
nice video nick! btw i´ve loved your channel and my name is nick too haha
How much did you pay for that light blue with the white buttons?.. that thing is nice
Is there any difference in screen quality between trans red and the previous colors?
No. All the screens seem to be identical from what I recall. Have you heard anything about them changing them? Maybe I’ll take a closer look.
@@OGTechNick I read in the retrohandhelds discord that there might have been a switch between screens and since trans red is the latest model and considering your vast collection you might be able to check
Did you ever find out if there's a difference ? I just ordered the red

I want the new transparent red! does it run ps5 lol
