The purple Anbernic 353V was my first emulation device. The battery literally blew up in my hands, nobody mentions that with these devices. That being said, the 406V looks like a much beefier version of that device and I hope they figured out the battery situation because I really want to get my hands on one
i want exactly this but square corners and retro looking, this looks like a rc controller and the actual retro looking consoles are either $700 (you know which one) or too small
Im really torn between this and the 406h… while I love the vertical form factor, I don’t know if it’s comfortable enough for long gaming sessions, and the triggers seem better on the 406h… idk people, help me. This one is drawing me in bc playing gameboy games on this probably feels so good. Plus the sticks for 3d games…
The v is not comfortable. My h hasn’t arrived yet but I kept my RG cube longer than I kept any other handheld (except Odin 2). Was so comfortable, only sold in anticipation of this. Short Switch style sticks really let the cube down.
Once I review the 406h I can say, but as of now I like the sticks on the 406V for usability they just look odd. But they are way better than switch style ones.
197 with change on Amazon as BF deal, but yeah nowhere near 150 which should be the absolute max. I don't see why people wouldn't just get the Retropocket 5 for 219, with a beautiful oled screen
What do you think about ANBERNIC?They have made different device with same specs(T820)but only RG556 Is with AMOLED screen😢RG406H was Perfect with AMOLED screen 😢
When I play a modern iteration of the classic Game Boy, the first thing it needs to be is retro, as in look similar to the Game Boy. These colour options aren't retro and that's a fail. I may as well play something else (that's horizontal so can include the more powerful systems, and more comfortable) because there's no nostalgia evoked with this one.
This review was clicky and not squishy
The real answer
Been loving my rg406v. Taken some tinkering to get all I want, but that was part of the fun.
I have it, it's a great device. Black looks way cooler, mine is the gray one...
I ordered the gray one because I don’t like that the black comes transparent.
I’m not sure why they constantly change the plastic color options.

Very beefy!
Good Review x
Thank you!
Excellent review, could you tell me if this device carries king of fighters 98 and samurai shodown thank you.
Thank you. As for the games, not sure. there are a ton of games on here, and you can always drag and drop more onto the SD card.
@ all right thanks
Anbernic is becoming the king of the emulation community

where is it for 150?
Check Anbernic’s website that’s without shipping and handling
What do you mean BEFORE you buy?!?!?
😉
Mine arrives tomorrow (can't wait). Paid $117 during the AliExpress 11/11 sale
Before you put down cash, check out the info you need to know for this device!
I had to pay 125. Were you first time buyer? 117 how
Aliexpress discount on Black Friday + 20$ coupon : 129$ :D
Nice

@@DaveyGI want something light and comfortable. Should I get this or the MM+?
It looks decent tbf
You mean rg406v for $125.72 on sale :-)
Dose 256gb come with gta
Also nice review
Thanks!
Can I have an emulator
switch games?
Where are you seeing it for 150... even your own link leads to it for 219...
197 with change on Amazon as BF deal, but yeah nowhere near 150 which should be the absolute max. I don't see why people wouldn't just get the Retropocket 5 for 219, with a beautiful oled screen
You can grab it for 148 on Anbernic
@tosvus aliexpress has it for about 140ish and their own site.

They make too many devices, they know how to but it’s confusing to the customer.
@DaveyG thanks for the answer 👍
My S24 Ultra has a far better screen and runs Switch upscaled perfectly. The Razer Kishi I use with it has better buttons too.
No it doesn’t.
No shiz
I have a z fold 6 and I could never get used to playing on the phone. Its not optimal for gaming.

Horizontal (16:9) started after PS2, so this is perfect up to it really
Horizontal isn’t retro and that’s a fail too tho. You can get 406v in grey and swap out the button colors for red.
@@Wavetheory85 You miss the point
Titillating.
Yo yo yo homeslice give me a console plz 😢
