I misspoke when referring to PSX settings. You need to disable HLE bios to be able to play games like CTR, Diablo, and some versions of MGS. You can also mod this device to have L2/R2 buttons by wiring your own switches directly to the board. It's already implemented in the system.
Just ordered an RG350 and now I'm partially debating my choice. But fully open source is a big deal, so even though the specs of this are clearly better, I'm worried about its dev community being smaller / nonexistent. Oh and the lack of L2/R2 is kind of dumb.
Theremin Hero I’m honestly torn on this decision. I also like the RG350 and am considering buying it. Let us know how you feel about it when it arrives.
i wanna get rg350...but the fat fuckin logo just makes me cringe x.x like a wise man once said, "who's gonna care? nobody's gonna go, "woah dude, he's rocking an ANBERNIC!!!!" "
Okay so Starfox clearly _isn't_ running perfectly because it's not supposed to play at 60 fps. It doesn't play at 60 fps on original hardware. That's way too fast. Starfox is supposed to be about 15 fps. Yoshi's Island is clearly running too fast too. Both of which are Super FX games (Yoshi's Island is Super FX 2). I would hope there's a way to enable some kind of frame limiting for them.
so this is the handheld i went with , i ordered it a couple of days ago so we will see how it goes im a little nervous but oh well its the one i thought would be best out of the 3 i was choosing from! thanks for the reviews!
Not sure why a second trigger button set is needed either. As a retro device there is hardly anything that needs them that this device could actually run.
Considering the lack of holes for the speaker, there's no wonder why it's so tinny. I'd say drilling some more holes, or making the holes bigger will make it better.
Your reviews are very cool. Wish you'd list more or talk more about the games included in each machine. Been looking for a game system that has the old Capcom and SNK arcade games already included. Would love to play 3 COUNT BOUT, AREA 88, MARTIAL MASTERS and maybe play Konami's SUNSET RIDERS, X-MEN and TMNT again. Sadly, these current console systems don't offer these classics. Thanks again.
@@Projectwolfie21 ... and how will they update the 2 missing buttons, and the missind 2nd analog-stick xD? "The Retro Game 350" might be the better decision over this one.
@@Nebujin383 The RG400 (or whatever they wish to call it) of course! But honestly, I'm more for the 300's form factor at this point. Sure, it has lower power but it's more comfortable in comparison thanks to the D-Pad location on the updates.
I didn't know this and I wish it was in the video but R2 is assigned to Joystick right, L2 is assigned to Joystick Left and L2+R2 is assigned to Joystick up. SNES runs perfect other than the special chip games.
For someone buying this Gkd350h: --- We can trigger L2 + R2 with press select button and L trigger for L2 and Select+ R trigger for R2 button... --- We can use and make eboot.pbp format to playing psx game for minimize the size of using .bin I just have this handheld about 1 week, buying 2nd for $35, and i really love this handheld :)
@@HighDollarHobo yeah man. I just watch ETAPRIME's video and learned that a cheap Walmart phone and Bluetooth controller will be wayyyyyy better than this Chinese crap at the same price point! They need to step there game up and just use snapdragon and Android.
You mentioned when you speak of PS1, “you’ll need to remap buttons”.....but then you mention in the needs of implementation, a function to remap buttons.
We're getting slowly to awesome devices. Power to run most of PS1 gen and below games, long battery life, sturdy components controls and case, two analog sticks, four shoulder buttons, stereo speakers, controls placement that would allow for dpad as much as analog sticks usage, big size memory card support. All those devices get closer to the ultimate device (that won't exist anyway since every people want something different). I can't wait to get my hands on my RG350 and hope for better emulation. I wan't to play MGS on the go!^^
Another great review Taki. Keep em coming! The little quirks you mentioned here and there seem like small things that can be ironed out as they progress with updates(or releases to public if they choose). I too wish for L2/R2 as well as the 2nd thumbstick. From what we see and through your review there is definitely a ton of power under the hood of this device. A real shame if they missed that full potential by falling short on the controls. Could be a deal breaker for some if they specifically wanted to play emulators needing those added functions. When you have had the device apart, did you happen to see anything on the pcb to indicate any traces leading to allow any extra inputs to be added/modded on the rear? Just wondering if us DIY'ers could add to this. Of course thats half the struggle, we then would need access to the kernel to get it working hehe.
I've heard a couple of the included emulators are the reason some games like with snes aren't having 100% compatiblity, is it possible to install outside emulators?
@@TakiUdon Well then I guess you would agree that this makes "every other new and unreleased product in this price range highly anticipated before they can even be placed in their packaging" ....Also there is no L2, R2, L3, R3, C, Z buttons, nor an HDMI output or an additional USB port. (micro or type-C for a 4 port hub for Xbox360 controllers) I hope more work gets done on the RG350.
I don't understand how there isn't a super nice device with this form factor yet all the developers have to do is really try but. There's always something that they didn't have to skip out on which they do whether it be the ram the screen or the software
inb4 the annoying kiddies saying their phone is better (without physical controls?) or that their laptop/tablet is better (sounds really pocketable....). Why, like every time, whyyyy. Also, yes, we know you love your PSP and its somehow magical ability to play every game ever made at 60fps (not even close)
Hey, man, I bought 350h, too. I also think this machine is very good. But apart from SFC, I also felt a bit out of frame when I was playing Castlevania: Circle of the Moon in GBA. I want to know if I feel too allergic or if I do have this problem. Could you give it a try?
Interesting. I haven't bought dedicated emulation devices since I got the GPDxd. I have to say it's nice to have some powerful systems coming out that don't have the android overheads. Better for pick up and play.
Depends on what you want to pick up and play I suppose. Something like this is great for systems like the Gameboy Advance but you'd need something like the XD once you start getting into more power hungry systems.
i had the same dilemma, finally i decided to stick to PG2 and GKD350H. as much as i love RG350, right stick is a major dealbreaker for me, i have pretty big hands and i know for a fact that i will not be able to enjoy playing as much as i could if that thing was not there. also, thank you Taki for these small but crucial details.
HI TAki, just got my 350H. I don't if I remember this correctly but was it you that said you found an older build of a SNES emulator that worked better on this device? Or was it another device? If so, where do I find it? Thanks in advance.
Hi Taki. thanks for your review and keep making great content. I would like to make a couple of questions: 1) Do the Game Kiddy 350H and the RH350 are made from the same company? I ask because the follow a very similar form factor. 2) Due to more buttons and more Inputs, do you believe RH350 can be a better alternative, or the performance from Game Kiddy 350H is much more superior? 3) Can the RH350 USB ports be used to connect external controllers? By the way, if a portable device could be made with th I/O from RH350, the power from GK350H and support to external controllers, I believe that would be awesome.
Yeah, but then you have to suffer through Android. Once it’s customized, it’s not so bad, but until then, it’s a bit of a pain. Also wish this was opened to FOSS development, as I think that would have helped tremendously. Also mindboggling that it somehow only supports 128MB of RAM. That works for retro emulation, but man, does it feel bad.
Im glad that i bought one. In the ps1 emu L2 and R2 are by default left/right in the analog wheel so is not big deal for me, playing diablo feels about the same
My friend, maybe you will able to cut the clip about Miyoo new pocketGo, wich seems very similar to rg350 and rg350h? And where do you get the rg350h?)
The only issue with lack of CFW is that no one owns it so it has no active community like the RG350. You don't need the manufacturer to do that, all those retro devices are basically open.
I dont understand: it has or not a glass covered display? Also, the 4 buttons are better than his direct competitor (RG350)? They seem to near and to cheap... The layout is also my favorite :)
some people are used to 4 shoulder buttons, but for ppl like me, it's not a dealbreaker. they say 2 analogue sticks better than 1, and i would agree...if rg350's right analogue stick wasn't placed in such a weird position (some people cut off right one bc it hurts their thumb when they r using the ABXY buttons). the rg 350 is super beautiful though :)
I don't think it's a joke that software on these devices come with their own faults, it'd be a joke if you can't update the software, since most of them seem to be open source projects that constantly receive updates.
@Charles Lee Ray wish the main guy would release the aluminium version already. taki grabbed one and i was like...........................................man. wish that was available globally.
Hi Taki. 1st thank you for the great videos. I mostly would like to play retro RPG games such as "Romance of the three kingdoms", "Nobunaga Ambitions" and "Final Fantasy". Should i wait for this or the RG300 is good enough? Thank you for your kind advise.
你是中国人吗？If you're referring to just SNES titles, either console would be great. I own both and really enjoy the retro style of the 300. Go with whatever device has the best style/price for you.
Those negatives you mentioned in closing are pretty massive and damning..... but then you mentioned $50 and I was like.... yeah, I'm in. but I'll still be left looking for a SNES handheld and that sucks hard. That's ALL I want at this point. Give me a machine that can run and play SNES right.
Try to relay to the company or sellers you got this from to list this for sale on shopee or lazada Philippines. I always want to buy the latest handhelds but only the old ones are available.
There is a cheap 7 inches handheld called X16. I wonder would it be easy to make it a MOD, where you install a pi zero or something in it, and have a linux portable 7 inches screen handheld...
The software bottleneck is unforgivable. I was waiting for this, but I will buy the RG350. The wrong layout is a big issue for me, but the open source software is essential
Why can't we have everything in one device? There are always a minus on every retro handheld. RG350 has everything I wanted except it lacks a sufficient CPU to run PSX at 60FPS and annoyingly huge and distracting brand below the screen. While this GKD has the CPU I wanted but lack L2R2, only one analog, and the speaker is mono.
Faster than a CM3+ based handheld? I get that it's faster than the jz4770 used in other handhelds like the Anbernic RG350, so it's probably the fastest MIPS based handheld. But I'd like to see how it compares to a CM3+ handheld. I would also agree with other folks that the lack of R2/L2 and a 2nd analog stick is a dealbreaker for me.
Oh hey, this is...pretty much just a better, more ergonomic version of the other 350 I just saw you talk about. Shame there's no right analog or L2 and R2; that would seal it. Also, the fact that the stick is slippery AND rotates is a recipe for disaster; they should prevent it from rotating and give it a better grip; perhaps a cross of little bumps. The speaker also clearly needs to be moved and improved; eve downward firing speakers under the device would be an improvement, but a best case scenerio would be placing them as tiny front facing stereo speakers underneath or above the screen, assuming the LCD housing gives them enoufh room to place them there. would A couple of buttons next to the stick so you could hold this sideways for vertical shooters would also be nice. Also, this NEEDs to be more open, or course. Homebrew developers are needed to make any device like this successful. As an aside, Star Fox is in fact running too fast; while there are no visible issues, the ingame framerate (not the framerate counter) should be lower when emulated correctly; things are happening way too fast.
Hello Taki. Please help me: are you able to set the cpu at 7th performance level sono that you dont need to set everytime you power off and on? Is it possibile to set it permanently?
hello sir, could you made a detail comparison for this device vs the ldk landscape. are they basically the same? thank you for this great video. cheers. :)
8:02 - Oh you're having issues with Yoshi's island because you've get the SuperFX Chip setting to overclock mode. Yoshi's island had a SuperFX chip just for certain effects, and when the chip is overclocked the effects are not going to sync properly with the rest of what's being rendered by the SNES. Set the SuperFX Chip setting back to "default". And when you say "Star Fox runs perfectly", actually it's playing WAY too quickly. If you ever played it on an SNES, you'd see it runs about half that speed natively. Again, it's because you've got the SuperFX chip overclocked.
How can a company make a handheld capable of playing PSX games and not have R2/L2 buttons? That is mind boggling.
They were probably surprised it worked lmao
it just like Sony PSP
look psp
Welcome to China.
If it's powerful enough to emulate PS1 at 60fps, it needs dual analog and dual shoulder buttons.
"Now get out and enjoy the rest of your day. Taki out"
Me: sulks deeper into the couch to search more GKD350H vudeos.

I only just recently discovered your channel. I really can feel the passion for handhelds, very in depth reviews too! Keep up the great content!
Please make a video comparing the GK 350H and the RG350. Thanks!
Rg350 is better hahahaa!¡!
endlessbeast - can you explain? I’m interested in both so your info would help greatly. Thanks!
Agree!
@MBTM89 agree
350 cpu 4770 1g
350h cpu x1830 1.5g
350h has a better performance on emulators.
350 has a better quality on the case.

No 2 set of shoulders buttoms? We are getting closet but yet soo far
50 bucks vs 90 of the RG 350
Not needed. It can't run much below sixth generation.
Dan Glup you can get the RG350 on Alibaba.com for $60
so this is the handheld i went with , i ordered it a couple of days ago so we will see how it goes im a little nervous but oh well its the one i thought would be best out of the 3 i was choosing from! thanks for the reviews!
Lack of L2 and R2 seems like a HUGE OVERSIGHT.
Yeah, if it had that and a second analog it would be perfect.
And only 128mb of ram..
@@juicymesmo Why would the RAM matter for emulation of retro consoles xD
Not sure why a second trigger button set is needed either. As a retro device there is hardly anything that needs them that this device could actually run.
@Flowzerker Yes, most retro games require a few mb to cache the entire ROM. I remember NES emus using kilobytes of RAM.
Considering the lack of holes for the speaker, there's no wonder why it's so tinny. I'd say drilling some more holes, or making the holes bigger will make it better.

Technically they can include anything you want. It's a little bit of a grey area
So where would I go online to download the old arcade games and how would I go about it?
If the SNES emu is buggy and there is no R2/L2, what's the point of this device?
So they can release an upgrade later? These little consoles thrive on small updates.

Yeah, It's a little overwhelming tbh.
Fyi, this is available now on Ali Express and eBay. Unfortunately the final model still has only two shoulder buttons and the colorways are terrible.

I wonder how is the performance with N64?
Nonexistent
There are no emulator, so... None so far. Unless someone port it.

Awesome review I like how it has built in gamez too
When and where will this be available?
Who fing knows
Therefore the question
awesome review!! also it would be great if you put the game titles on the video.
Does it have enough performance to run Sega superscalar-era games like Outrun at full speed? That would be a dream come true for me!

Try to relay to the company or sellers you got this from to list this for sale on shopee or lazada Philippines. I always want to buy the latest handhelds but only the old ones are available.
Great review have you tried ninja turtles? As well as turtleneck time arcade? Psp mame struggles with those titles wondering how it plays.
No issues with NT
There is a cheap 7 inches handheld called X16. I wonder would it be easy to make it a MOD, where you install a pi zero or something in it, and have a linux portable 7 inches screen handheld...
I'd be curious to see how this compares to the retro game 350.
That's my next video
Saw thier web address on the back panel, it doesn't come up however :-(
thanks for sharing. it kinda lacks buttons.
Sir, one short question.
Does GKD350H support USB OTG?
(for wifi dongle or external controller)
Thanks :)
The software bottleneck is unforgivable. I was waiting for this, but I will buy the RG350. The wrong layout is a big issue for me, but the open source software is essential
They should have at least put a micro HDMI out you would’ve just had to buy an adapter to put it on the TV then but it would still have been possible
oh really? this or the RG350?
Right bro lol😄
AWWW NO L2 R2, THAT SUCKS
I'd say RG350. Dual analog and shoulder buttons. Unless this one costs 50-ish bucks.
I totally dig the overall design, but for PS1 emulation it really does need a 2cnd 3D nub as well as L/R2 buttons.
No L2 and no R2 is a deal breaker. What’s the point of the added CPU power if you can’t play the PS1 games...
Why can't we have everything in one device? There are always a minus on every retro handheld.
RG350 has everything I wanted except it lacks a sufficient CPU to run PSX at 60FPS and annoyingly huge and distracting brand below the screen.
While this GKD has the CPU I wanted but lack L2R2, only one analog, and the speaker is mono.
They have to make sacrifices to keep costs competitive.
Faster than a CM3+ based handheld?
I get that it's faster than the jz4770 used in other handhelds like the Anbernic RG350, so it's probably the fastest MIPS based handheld.
But I'd like to see how it compares to a CM3+ handheld.
I would also agree with other folks that the lack of R2/L2 and a 2nd analog stick is a dealbreaker for me.
Should I get this or the vita?
What game is that at 6:52? It looks like Umihara Kawase...but I don't remember that kind of ability in that game.
Hydra Castle Labyrinth
Oh hey, this is...pretty much just a better, more ergonomic version of the other 350 I just saw you talk about. Shame there's no right analog or L2 and R2; that would seal it. Also, the fact that the stick is slippery AND rotates is a recipe for disaster; they should prevent it from rotating and give it a better grip; perhaps a cross of little bumps. The speaker also clearly needs to be moved and improved; eve downward firing speakers under the device would be an improvement, but a best case scenerio would be placing them as tiny front facing stereo speakers underneath or above the screen, assuming the LCD housing gives them enoufh room to place them there. would A couple of buttons next to the stick so you could hold this sideways for vertical shooters would also be nice.
Also, this NEEDs to be more open, or course. Homebrew developers are needed to make any device like this successful. As an aside, Star Fox is in fact running too fast; while there are no visible issues, the ingame framerate (not the framerate counter) should be lower when emulated correctly; things are happening way too fast.
where to buy?
Searched Google but couldn't find a link to buy...
Hello Taki. Please help me: are you able to set the cpu at 7th performance level sono that you dont need to set everytime you power off and on? Is it possibile to set it permanently?
So... Does this beat the RG 3500?
I'm going to cover that in my next video.
How would you compare this to the RG350?
hello sir, could you made a detail comparison for this device vs the ldk landscape. are they basically the same? thank you for this great video. cheers. :)
LDK is significantly weaker than this device to be perfectly honest. It's night and day.
@@TakiUdon thank you for your quick reply. wow, that is promising. any idea on the price and where to get it?
where do you actually but these though? nothing is coming up in Amazon.
They haven't been listed there yet.
Why don't you do a review on the Nvidia Shield TV emulators I myself I think it's one of the best out there if not the best
Where can I get this? Not seen it on eBay or aliexpress yet
pls where do you get this version with black boutton?
Does it come with pre installed game's or do I need to add roms on to it?
8:02 - Oh you're having issues with Yoshi's island because you've get the SuperFX Chip setting to overclock mode. Yoshi's island had a SuperFX chip just for certain effects, and when the chip is overclocked the effects are not going to sync properly with the rest of what's being rendered by the SNES. Set the SuperFX Chip setting back to "default". And when you say "Star Fox runs perfectly", actually it's playing WAY too quickly. If you ever played it on an SNES, you'd see it runs about half that speed natively. Again, it's because you've got the SuperFX chip overclocked.
You have no control over the FX emulation.
@@TakiUdonAh man you don't? It's not buried in the settings somewhere? Laammme!
