I purchased the Wood Grain version 405V at day of launch from the AliEx ANBERNIC store page. I also got the hard carrying case and 128GB micro sd games card add-on. It should be delivered to me today or tomorrow, so I haven't gotten mine yet. I purchased a Team Group Pro Plus 1TB micro sd card for mine weeks before ordering my 405V. I plan to use my 405V as a portable TV media player as well as a handheld game console.
I was lucky enough to get the Purple, but I wanted the grey😅. I agree with your views on this. The V is a great upgrade. Shame about your fan, I was lucky enough not to suffer that issue. Maybe open it and tighten or replace? Thanks for a awesome one bud👍🏾
Thanks for the video. I have the Retroid Pocket 3+, Miyoo Mini and Plus Version, TRIMUI Model S and some modded Sony and Nintendo handhelds. All I can say is, this device here is the perfect device for people with wrist injurys like carpal tunnel. Miyoo Mini Plus gives you cramps after playing for an hour and also does RP3+. Yes, there are grips for those, but who wants to buy a slim device to carry a grip around that makes the slim device bulky? The 405v is perfect for what it is. And also I really want to thank you, that you had the balls to finally say "dont believe people saying ps2 runs fine" I was hated on reddit for saying exactly this when fiddling around with ps2 emulation in the rp3+. Some people just dont want to here that the performance is bad. Do NOT expect God of War to play okay and look good. You can get it to play "okayish" while looking horrible. Do NOT expect to play Need for Speed most wanted any where near enjoyable. Imho, just skip gc, wii and ps2 library or else you will be disappointed, because your favorite handful of games wont be enjoyable. This device is perfect for: GB, gbc, gba, all Sega consoles, psx, Dreamcast and n64. Sure, there are way more consoles running perfect, but i think these are the most requested. As a bonus: Games like Titan Souls, Forager and other indie Games also released on android are VERY enjoyable with this thing. Good Video my friend!
I allready ordered this lovely chunk of retro goodness. I want to play everything starting from ps1... i like to tweak things so i can get some of the ps2 and gamecube games working... i personaly rhink its part of the fun. Thanks for the video mate
The only problem with the Ergonomics is the Start and Select buttons should have been placed in the Middle near the Function button. This is the first Vertical Handheld I'm completely enthusiastic on purchasing. 😊
The 505 I already have and the 405V I'm getting has no HDMI port but that doesn't bother me at all. They are both intended to be portable handhelds and they have a large enough display not to have to squinch your eyes. For those who much prefer HDMI outputs on their handhelds. I suggest you get a PowKiddy device. The PowKiddies are more likely to have HDMI output.
I prefer horizontal handhelds, but glad somebody is taking ergo into consideration on a vertical. I think the overly sensitive back buttons are a deal breaker for me.
Yep, absolutely love when handhelds are designed for ergonomics first as comfort is a big thing for these devices. The back buttons are a shame, I wonder if we'll see an easy fix from modders.
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds heck yea, I got a retro pocket 3 and a miyoo mini but this is what I’ve been waiting for. I’ve been watching every video I can on it to set it up asap but your video game me new info no one else did so thank you for that.
I am happy with my RG505 since I can play psp games in its proper 16:9 format. If the RG405V had a more powerful chip to tackle Wii, and ps2 games then I would have jumped on it.
Very surprised that mine from Anbernic arrives tomorrow already, like a solid week or more earlier than I expected lol. My first dedicated retro handheld!
@@JoeysRetroHandhelds that's great to hear! I was Defiwaiting for something vertical, and then hold out in hopes of getting something that could play Saturn games. Alas I think that wish is probably for next generation at this point lol
@@UsernameUsernameUsername420 I'm in the US! Midwest. I paid the extra $10 for expedited though and I think my city is a major hub for logistics...etc. but it's in possession of USPS in my city already. Shipped from China 4px on Friday.
These handhelds keep getting updated & released so rapidly. I feel like I'm one upgrade away from grabbing a Vertical handheld. In truth, if Retroid were to release their new 4 series in a Vertical format, I reckon I would grab it. I have enough Horizontal models. a 353m, an Odin, a Flip, a Steam Deck. I want a muscled up Vertical. I feel like this is really close to what I want, but I'd be over the moon with greater GC support.
I think the Rg353V is still better as far as size and looks go. This is more powerful, sure, but it's large and clunky. I'd rather have the 353 until there's an option better than the 405.
I got gammaos, and I found that the games I ran on PS2 were often better than my gamecube performance. I could run shadow of collosus underclocked, but if I wanted to play F-Zero GX, it was barely playable.
I already have a T618 device so I am hesitate to get this. However, I want a vertical handheld and 4:3 display. I think I'll go rg35xx for easy gaming and pocketbility 😂
Hey joey, would you mind making a tutorial on how to set this thing up like you did with the miyoo mini plus ? I'm super interested in this console but new to retro handhelds in general. Thank you for reading 💚
Hey! My RG405M setup guide would cover you, same OS, same idea, all of it. Give that a watch. Or if you prefer, my Android setup guide plus Daijisho setup guide will also work.
Only thing I don't like is the rounded sides on the front. It looks like something I'd make with play dough back in my school days. Doesn't help that the size makes it less pocketable than my Switch Lite was when I had one.
I am just looking for a gameboy looking device that can play fluidly up till PS2 and Gamecube, that's it. It looks like this one is still struggling but it's getting there. I hate how it got chunkier. My ultimate design would be the RG353V with a better output and 3.5mm on the bottom and the speakers on the bottom and the led on top with the power of being able to play ps2 gamecube. Ill but that immediately.
Hey, great video! I'm 100% new to retro gaming handhelds and I'm thinking of picking this up. Not the most tech savvy guy in the world though. If I want to basically just play up to the PS1 and Dreamcast, am I good to go out of the box?? Thanks for any help!
Great video! Did you try out the Moonlight streaming option? Bummed that it doesn't have HDMI out, but if Moonlight worked for streaming to an Apple TV that would be awesome
I really don't understand who this is for? I mean it doesn't really look all that much like a game boy, maybe like a really bad clone? Also it's HUGE, too big for a vertical design in my opinion. I want to play ps2 on a vertical handheld as much as the next guy, but is the cost to aesthetic really worth it? I'm sure it's easier to hold, but oh lord that thing is UGLY. I'll stick to my RG35xx for my nostalgia fix and 405m for everything for now.
actually I take it back now that I see it side by side with the 405m, it doesn't seem THAT big. (the 405m is a lot smaller in person. Would you say it's as big as the O.G. Gameboy?
Been trying to get an OG Gameboy so I could compare, lol but it didn't work out. I'm not sure, honestly, maybe another reviewer compared that? I haven't held one in over 20 years at this point.
Did the buttons wiggle when you push them side to side? I feel like the buttons might be a little too small for the cutout holes. Is that your experience?
I am currently waiting on the Wood Grain version to come in the mail. It looks like a solid unit! It's running Android, so does that mean that I can connect Bluetooth headphones to it?
I’m looking for the handheld that can run entire libraries of roms from n64 all the way back to mame which device would I use? Bonus points if it plays ps2 and back. I don’t want to have to download roms from incomplete libraries but if I have to I will.
has anyone had an issue where the analog sticks are suddenly inverted, i've tried everything but can't get them to work correctly, left is right and up is down, not sure how this happened
I love this, but is it consistent with playing psp games, like iron man, or ps2 Star Wars battlefront 2 or do you think it will stutter a lot. And if I did a window emulator would I be able to play half-life or fallout 1997
Wow....cargo shorts if you're still in the 90's.... says the generation who normalized manbags, sorry, slingbags! :) Good review though, I think I'll get one of these and pocket them in my cargo's.
Ive been. Doing my research and I’m trying to find one with analog controls and that have the games I like such as call of duty grand theft auto Mario kart …please help me out and tell me what games are available
I have this device but how do you get the roms on this? Which folders do you put them in? When i take out the card that came with the device it wont let me copy over Roms i get, GRRR..so frustrated. I see all these games reviewed but they are not on my RG405v out of box. Does anyone have a tutorial on this device of how to install other ROMS?
I never, ever use the ROMS that come with the device, nor do I buy that SD card, but there's folders on that card and you can just transfer your ROMS to those folders that match the console. Otherwise, ROMS can be anywhere in Android, you just point your frontend or emulators to them.
I’ve collected a lot of these retro devices and they are cool because the invoke a nice feeling of nostalgia. This one looks too bulky and not appealing to me. I hope anbernic move on from this design swiftly.
I don't like how sticks look on vertical handhelds. They don't belong here. Just don't. But I think I will order 405v on sale (since I dont NEED it, I just want it, because I like it. Should be even better, than 351v)
Hi. I want to order it but the store said me if i dont buy it with sd card there will not be installed any games on it even though it has 128gb build in memory. Is this true? Can i install games in internal storage or do i need sd card?
You don't need the sd card, in fact, it's always advised never to buy it. The roms are bad quality and the sd card is low quality. You can install games to the internal storage or buy your own SD card and install games there.
Just bought the RG405v. I’ve also bough a mini pc that I’d love to turn into a Batocera gaming station as per a retro corps video… If I set up Google drive auto save will I be able to pick up where I’ve left off on the pc and vice Versa? Thanks!
I am watching your video of this product instead of Russ' because I really don't wanna hear his "all the same" words over and over and no mention of USD.
Yes, when it comes to functionality and ergonomics, it's good. Looks however, ugh ... one of the ugliest vertical handhelds I've ever seen. 🤮 I just couldn't buy it for the looks man.

Can it play Tekken 3, Tekken 5 and Soulblade? I only wanna play these games.
I plan on selling my *RG351V* Woody to offset the cost of an even bigger *RG405V* Woody!

yes i have one already .I played some games and everything was fine
I ordered during the first 10 minutes of the release…just waiting on it and the case to make it to Florida. I ordered the wood grain to deter thieves.
Hahahaha
🤣🤣
And you can use it as a scarecrow later when newer model arrives…
😂
Lmao it is ugly I couldn’t do this to myself to deter thieves 😂
Thanks for the video.
I have the Retroid Pocket 3+, Miyoo Mini and Plus Version, TRIMUI Model S and some modded Sony and Nintendo handhelds.
All I can say is, this device here is the perfect device for people with wrist injurys like carpal tunnel. Miyoo Mini Plus gives you cramps after playing for an hour and also does RP3+.
Yes, there are grips for those, but who wants to buy a slim device to carry a grip around that makes the slim device bulky?
The 405v is perfect for what it is.
And also I really want to thank you, that you had the balls to finally say "dont believe people saying ps2 runs fine"
I was hated on reddit for saying exactly this when fiddling around with ps2 emulation in the rp3+.
Some people just dont want to here that the performance is bad.
Do NOT expect God of War to play okay and look good. You can get it to play "okayish" while looking horrible.
Do NOT expect to play Need for Speed most wanted any where near enjoyable.
Imho, just skip gc, wii and ps2 library or else you will be disappointed, because your favorite handful of games wont be enjoyable.
This device is perfect for:
GB, gbc, gba, all Sega consoles, psx, Dreamcast and n64.
Sure, there are way more consoles running perfect, but i think these are the most requested.
As a bonus: Games like Titan Souls, Forager and other indie Games also released on android are VERY enjoyable with this thing.
Good Video my friend!
