To silence those very annoying noises while navigating menus, pop the SD card into a computer, and edit retro/setting.xml. Theres a couple entries near the bottom that mention sound effect wav files. I just set the filenames to files that don't exist. Now it is nice and quiet. TBH you could probably replace those wav files with something a little less annoying if you wanted.
Quite a sleek design, has larger buttons and a battery compartment door. Some good features for a handheld, I may get myself one later. Though, I didn't get this D-R35 Plus, instead I preordered the Transparent Blue PowKiddy RGB20SX.
FYI, IGS is a game publisher based in Taiwan. They specialize in Chinese arcade games, and their most well-known game is Martial Masters, which came out in 1998. Imagine a Jet Li movie turned into a hardcore fighting game, complete with Wong Fei Hung as a main character.
Il sorry to hear that happened. I’m having my own problems with other devices failing right now. It’s such a pain. I don’t think I’ll get to a tutorial video for the R35 Plus anytime soon, but maybe. I appreciate you checking out the video.
Put other roms in the ROMS folder and find them in the system under Downloads. It will not emulate everything, but it's decent. Couldn't get Gorf and a few others working...
I completely forgot to show its scale. I’ll be doing a trardown video for the devs to see the internals later tonight. I’ll make sure to compare to a few other handhelds. Hopefully they can work some magic with the firmware.
I like the form factor. It's a bit thinner than the miyoo mini plus and a bit taller than the smaller miyoo mini. If we can get AmberELEC on this device, it'll be okay, but it's lacking in a lot of areas I failed to mention in the video. No brightness adjustment option, no reset button, and no L3/R3. It's really not that bad for what it can do as is, but we know there are better options for the same price or less.
I ordered a old school Casio calculator watch. I always wanted one when I was little. I'm disappointed, too. I can hardly see the numbers on the display and there is no backlight. It's one of the few that are actually branded Casio, but it's definitely a KO.
Hey. I’m sorry to hear that. At this time I can’t exactly tell you how to restore your system but I think it would require you to flash the exact file structure to an sd card with balana etcher or raspberry pi imager. I think the best place to find an answer is the Retro Handhelds Discord. They have a section dedicated to “other handhelds” and there are a few devs who have worked on cfw for devices that came from this same company, like the D007. I’m sure somebody there could help you get it going again.
Anyone know how this holds up to the r36s? Edit: i just saw you got one on r36s, ill watch when im done with this😊 -i got th r36s, but r2 button broke pretty much instantly wich was a disappointment. Other than that its nice hh if you ha e small hands, im printing an addon gripp to fit the device to my gigant hands as we speak xD
It won't, sorry to burst your bubble but this absolutely will not run emulation station. If it was the RK3326 then yes. Doubt it even has 512mb of ram. ES needs at least a gb usually.
Yikes that selection sound is awful 😖 and i was saying the system looks ok, great review video, that game selection sound is a deal breaker for sure and the software could use some work.
No brightness settings at all 🤦🏻♂️. I agree, the R36S is better. Thanks for toughing it out through the video. That menu sound really is horrible. I should’ve turned the volume down for you guys. My bad.
@@OGTechNickso bad. Also I think 1 SD card just for roms. On the back of the case it says 1gb ram/ 8gb rom. If that is the case software on the board. Probably u can't install another os. Bummer Also no reset button too😂
I completely forgot to check. I’m guessing if yours doesn’t have L3/R3 mine won’t either. Texture feels pretty nice in the hands to me. The translucent ones might feel different. Man, I hope we get AmberELEC going for this one. @hackaround we need you buddy!
I think this is the first video of r35 plus! Noice
Thanks!

For 40€ it is ok. They put more care in the packaging than anbernic/powkiddy. And the qualitty seems decent for a child.
I agree. Thanks for checking out the video

Nice! Can you share a link?
I just canceled my order, thanks
Happy to help. Thanks for watching!

Oh, cool. Thanks for letting me know. I appreciate it.
Wooooooow, nice thank you for the info. That is like peak for both of them. Damn haven't watch any of her old movies lately.
Looking at this makes me want to compare this to the D-007 and see if they made much difference.
Bro it’s a stretched miyoo mini. It just needs better software and it could be a sleeper
Exactly!
The design is nice and comfortable for big hands, but idk if it’s powerful enough
I also bought one and tried to add other games to the TF card but failed. If you can, I hope to make a teaching video, thank you.

Its SOC is not rk3326 but V.R. Technology VT569B (opened to confirm).
Thanks. I did a teardown video a few days ago th-cam.com/video/h6w8uJQ5WQU/w-d-xo.html

Thanks, I almost bought the orange. A size comparison would have been cool, but without firmware, it doesn't matter.
I completely forgot to show its scale. I’ll be doing a trardown video for the devs to see the internals later tonight. I’ll make sure to compare to a few other handhelds. Hopefully they can work some magic with the firmware.
Ok is there internal settings like one where you would have to do a certain button combination
Wow, another quick delivery! I almost grabbed one of these, but it seemed just too similar to other gadgets I own.
I'm glad you didn't, buddy
@@OGTechNick Not a fan of it then? Is it about the same size as the Miyoo+? 🤔

@@OGTechNick True enough. Still, you gotta know! I did end up ordering in several wristwatches, btw. I regret the purchases. lol

Wow u are fast. I have a question. I have the the R36. The display from R36 is really Nice. it is the same like this ?
The display seems to be just as nice, but this is a much less powerful device than the R36S
Nice video, as usual.
A question: Is "Tetris - D.R. Korea" North Korean Tetris? If so, what makes it special compared to, say, Soviet Tetris?
Ah man.. you’re going to send me down a rabbit hole 😅 en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Tetris_variants
Buttons may be better than the R36S but the software is awful. Thank God I didn't buy it. Good video dude! 👍🏻
I completely agree. Thanks for checking out the video!
Maybe its possible to port arcos in that? If its possible ill give a try
It looks okay but lots of us have got lots of these (similar consoles) already so there isn't really enough to entice us.
Anyone have the firmware ? Mine briked and cant see the menus, I can play games but dont see the menus
Is possible use another firmware? ArkOS or emuelec?
I don’t think it’s possible with this chip. It’s not even an RK3326 unfortunately
please share the clone of the 64GB rome as Same device I am not able to turn on
Hi there I have one of these and ended up corrupting the original SD card. Do you have any advice as to how I can get this back to factory? Thanks!

There is a firmware alternative? Or R36s one for it?
Not yet, but some devs on discord are looking into it
@@OGTechNick Can you send me a link do channel?
yes😊
Can you add games to it ?
This looks like Android and is NOT open source? Can't wait because I think the firmware on this kit stinks. OTW it's decent.
I believe you are correct. The D007 was also Android
It’s easy to switch the OS if you have a pc
Anyone know how this holds up to the r36s?
Edit: i just saw you got one on r36s, ill watch when im done with this😊
-i got th r36s, but r2 button broke pretty much instantly wich was a disappointment. Other than that its nice hh if you ha e small hands, im printing an addon gripp to fit the device to my gigant hands as we speak xD
It doesn't compare because it's on the same level as the PowKiddy X20.
@Erasmo- I've not tried that one either, there's just a bit to much stuff floating around these days xd.
If this gets no developer support this device is pretty much DOA 😅
The dpad looks soo long and os is trash with no custom settings... Not worth it?
I don’t think so
I thin it wouldn't be long before arkos come to this
That would be nice
It won't, sorry to burst your bubble but this absolutely will not run emulation station. If it was the RK3326 then yes. Doubt it even has 512mb of ram. ES needs at least a gb usually.
I did a teardown for the devs on discord the next day. My bubble is fine. Appreciate the comment though.
@OGTechNick can it run emolation?
Yikes that selection sound is awful 😖 and i was saying the system looks ok, great review video, that game selection sound is a deal breaker for sure and the software could use some work.
💯 agree. Thanks for checking out the video. Hopefully it can be modded. I will be doing a teardown tonight to let the devs see what’s going on inside
Yeah modding would for sure make it better because I also don't like the scaling maybe it will get better after a few revisions?
Is this from the makers of the budget 👑 r36s?
Oh nvm, it's not lol
It's pages. not folders
15:08
Wow menu sound awful. Options so bad. No brightness settings? Also I couldn't see n64. R36s much better than this I guess. Thx for the video...

Also no reset button too😂
So that's what that means. Haha.
@@OGTechNickI guess so. 😅
@@DasheriM- D007 is the same thing. OS on board but hack around made it so that Amberelec on an sd card bypasses the internal system.
Looks like a frog xD
🐸
Outdated & not even close to a Psp. Keypad sucks. Design poor.
Nobody mentioned a PSP. You’re funny
Yeah I got the black one and does the texture feel weird to you. Also I don't have L3 and R3 on the analog sticks does yours also not have that?
I completely forgot to check. I’m guessing if yours doesn’t have L3/R3 mine won’t either. Texture feels pretty nice in the hands to me. The translucent ones might feel different. Man, I hope we get AmberELEC going for this one. @hackaround we need you buddy!
Haha cotex. That's what Mine says it doesn't say RK 3326
