Great review! Has some cool features.

[@batpixel]

Yeah for a mini handheld definitely 👌

[@Metal-Josh]

I didn’t realize (though I should’ve saw it coming) that it was the same chipset as the 35XX+ series of handhelds. Wasn’t expecting that. Nor the rumble function. Sounds great, I’m still thinking about the RG ARC D myself (gotta have those 6 face buttons, Y’know, and that epic Sega DPad)

[@batpixel]

Yeah a couple of details that make this stand out among the minis! The RG ARC D looks very cool. I have always loved the 6 button controller on my Genesis. I have them on my mini system now

[@Endr29]

Nice video! I am really tempted to give this one a try but I’m not there yet.

[@batpixel]

Thanks! What do you like about it and what is holding you back?

[@Metal-Josh]

If you’re like me, it’s probably that fear of the unknown, buying Chinese handhelds, scared to jump on it. I still hadn’t jumped on one yet

[@batpixel]

​@Metal-Josh in my experience with these, the Miyoo Mini Plus and the Anbernic XX series have been the best quality. Lots of review videos on any you'd be tempted to pickup, so there shouldn't be any surprises. However, the SD cards are unreliable, so at least do a backup and also check out custom firmware. Definitely use PayPal! In case something is wrong. Powkiddy seems to come 3rd with quality, although I've heard Miyoo's hasn't been consistent outside of the original Mini & Mini Plus

[@Endr29]

@@batpixel the fact that I already own a RG353M that is already very pocketable and runs all the systems that I want, including portmaster. What I like it she even smaller form factor and the overall esthetic.

[@Endr29]

@@Metal-Josh I am okay with Chinese handhelds and I have had several from different brands. All of them where fine. Form factor is a bog deal to me since I mainly play during my commute. My RG353M from Anbernic fits perfectly in my bag but the RG28XX will fit in my pocket.

[@paynomind81]

seems great for taking on the go

[@batpixel]

Yeah it's very portable, just have to be careful with the screen or get a case/screen protector
