What you guys think? Is the RG35XX still something to consider buying, or is it all about the Plus and H models now? Have you bought the RG35XX recently and how have you enjoyed it? I'm super curious. Let me know!
I just picked up the plus... And it is the real deal with Batocera
Ive just ordered this today comes tonight i have the miyoo mini but after a while i get hand cramps lol thank you for the video 😊
There no be any new Garlic Os later, Rip Black Seraph!
not having a removable battery is big miss because eventually the battery will die
I've bought the rg35xx unsure if thisnjts the plus version but die to be deleted today so hoping it's the plus model due to psp game options but overall it seems a good device
You got me to subscribe with this one, I recently ordered one and was concerned that I should have got the plus for specifically N64 games. But now that I've seen your review I'll check out other options for N64 games
Yeah I have the 35xxh (same chip and everything and it plays n64 pretty poorly imo. Dreamcast seems fine but I wouldn't get one to play n64 games.
Maybe the retroid pocket s2 or something. It's like twice as expensive but it can play n64 just fine and can even do some gamecube and ps2 (though again not all games run very well)
Came for a review and YOU SIR GOT A NEW SUB.
Fun video as always Portly!
I'm looking forward to the review of the H version, since I think I'm gonna get that one 😄
same kinda thing for me, I watched so many videos and did so much research on the rg35xx, bought it and a month later they came out with the plus.
Came to watch the anbernic, personality made me stay. Great review!
thanks for the advice, I ordered it too👍👍👋👋
I just bought the XX. Awesome!
it's still great! And connected to a crt tv is amazing, with even less latency.
I've recently puchased one, I just wanted to use it as a Gameboy/Color clone the form factor is perfect. I'll probably use it for Gba and Snes too.
Warning with this device the internal screen is incredibly fragile. It will not survive most falls so be very careful with how to carry it around.
Yep, lots of people buy these devices treating it like a game boy. They are nice, but they are not built anywhere near the same quality as old Nintendo systems. They will break even from a modest 2-3 ft fall.
Good to know… mines on the way, I’ll be careful with it.
You have any recommendations?
@@elyfawaz964 none of the budget handhelds are very high quality. You would have to step up to a mainstream product like the steam deck if you want something premium / durable.
@@elyfawaz964there are a couple wrist strap options out there that can go around one of the screws. Etsy is a good place to look. Also this is some more important advice, try to not drop it.
Wow! this is a video that I watched! Heck to the yeah
Great video.
Which version can you play videos, podcasts or mp4(low quality is fine)? Yes i know phones can do it all better but i prefer the tactile and smaller feel of this .
Id say yes, i also have the 35xxh and even a 405m but i still use the 35xx more than the others simply because of garlicOS. Between the short boot times and auto save/resume no matter what you do its just so user friendly to pick up for a quick game.
Like you press the power button and within 10 seconds its booted and automatically continues where you left off.
35xxh default OS or CFW just dont have these creature comforts.
I purchased the RG35XX knowing that the Plus was out, but this is my first time owning a pocket emulator. But the value was insane (25 USD plus 5 shipping with a promo code) at the time of my purchase. This is an excellent entry-level emulator device; it's just super fun. I also don't worry too much about taking it around with me since the price of it was very low. I migrated to a new SD card to avoid the dreaded SD failure I read online.
wtf who has it for that price
I got mine for $15.60 US on Amazon
@@jasonallen28227 not possible lol
@@Playerz714 Tiktok had a 50% discount at some point - got it for $21
How do you switch the SD card out?
I just got mine today, bummed that it didn’t come with the extra micro SD card but besides that it’s pretty fun. I’m planning on adding Mario at some point. I got the old school game boy advance purple too.
The one included is ass anyways better to by your own
Ok this catch me with golden sun ❤
At the time of this comment, the original rg35xx has better 3rd party os support and is slightly smaller but not small enough to be too uncomfortable for my hands. I skipped the plus and went straight to the H model because analog sticks. Has the same hardware as the plus and has so much more opportunities to play games that are analog specific e.g. N64.
I have the RG35XX+ and I don't even like playing it because of the State of the custom firmware. If I got the RG35XX I would enjoy playing it because of Garlic. Once we have a stable version of Garlic I think I'll enjoy playing it. But for now I can't recommend a device I don't even enjoy playing. Right now my Miyoo Mini+ blows it out of the water. I suppose I would enjoy the RG35XX+ if I put Minui on it. I love MinUi. But that would just turn it into an RG35XX and I won't be able to use wifi and bluetooth, which ruins the point of getting the +.
Just bought the plus and it worked for all of 15 minutes, I put it down to do some chores and when I came back to it it no longer worked. Stuck on an “anbernic” screen
This device is kind of amazing and i kinda want it (or a Plus)
but then I think... theres the Raspberry Pi, the NanoPC, a bunch of others, and heck i can just use my Cell Phone to emulate games (bluetooth controller) i guess i dont know if i'd actually use it.
Useful video! Not outdated at all~ I've spent a lot of time reading threads that say the plus isn't worth it just yet so here I am buying my 35xx in 2024 ^-^
This video helped me discover that the OS was "switchable"! I was so peeved at first bc like you mentioned Anbernic started advertising that GarlicOS would be included out of the box and when I started it up, it was the stock OS. The little pamphlet it came with didn't say anything about Garlic or switching so I was like....
Guess I missed the setting when I was exploring. So thx!
Love comments like these. Glad to help!
I accidentally bought the non plus model 😢 I hope it’s still fun. I’m sad that the non plus don’t play n64 😢.
You can change themes for Garlic, j personally like Garlic Jazz a lot.
I've seen some decent sales as they get rid of old stock. I got mine for $33
Link? I've never shopped tik Tok so I'm skeptical.
Where I can't spend 60 from amazon I only got 50 on me and I've been wanting to play Mario 😅
Can you make MuOs instructions
Literally ordered this over the + earlier today. Its cheaper and all i plan on is playing old pokemon games and rom hacks on it, no need for the + for me.
This one is better in my opinion so good choice
getting one simply for the same reason. i have a terrible itch to play pokemon crystal, it being the only one i never played.
Is X-men the arcade game on the there?
Just bought one shipped for 35$
Also this model is 20 grams lighter. The plus hurt my wrists too much. Also, the screen is brighter
Do you have a disability?
I just grabbed one for $30. I bet it's worth it!
Where did you get it I don't got much cash and 60 is a no go for me currently
@@Villainoid0 It's for 33 or 36$ now on BangGood
For stores that ship to Toronto this one os 47 dollars the new one is 105
🗿
Does the ANBERNIC RG35XX come with games installed?
I think it might depend on where you get it from. Mine did come with a bunch of games.
@Portly oh okay, thanks for the reply. I'm interested. Might be hitting up your link soon ha
@@seeniedkit comes with the games. I got it directly from Anbernic RG35xx , lots of games. But it is not recommended to keep the stock SD since they’re very cheap and can give out. I got a new SD card and flashed it with GarlicOS (custom firmware) and downloaded my own Roms. It’s so much better now.
This is better than the plus in my opinion
It's good 😌 ❤
Should I get this or the myoo mini pluse
Miyoo mini plus is slightly smaller and has WiFi and Bluetooth if that means anything to you. Both are pretty similar in a lot of ways. Personally I think I still prefer the look and feel of the Miyoo
I would say this
RG35XX yes it works. Nice display, buttons works, sound ok. tricker buttons well they sucks.
can i play pokemon soul silver in the RG35XX?
You’ll need the plus or H for that
I bought mine for $27 on the TikTok shop
Where 😢
TikTok shop obviously
WHAT SHOULD I DO BECAUSE NONE OF THEM HAVE JOYSTICKS
Check out the RG35XX H. It costs a little more than the Plus but it does have thumbsticks. My review for that is coming soon
@@Portly Thank you so much helped out a lot 👍👍
Got mine for $16. Worth it?
£12.50 on tiki tok shop😂hoping it’s legit
😮😮😮😮😮😮
There is zero reason to pick up the plus. The biggest advantage, it's ability to play some N64 and DC is taken away by the lack of an analog stick. Thus, you end up playing 8, 16, and some 32 bit systems, at most up to PS1 (which the original 35XX can do fine) and not much beyond that. Once the 35XXH released, it basically made the plus model obsolete. Has all the same power and the input methods to take advantage of N64/Dreamcast.
HDMI Out + Bluetooth Controller so you are wrong there is a reason why it can play 64 games and not all require analog sticks.
The Garlic OS firmware for the original has been discontinued and is no longer being updated. The Plus version has new firmwares that are already great and are continuing to be worked on and updated. The Plus also has WiFi for multiplayer, Bluetooth for controllers a long with HDMI support which is the one thing that the original has. The joystick issue is not that big of a deal, you can easily map the analog controls to the d-pad and there's shortcuts as well that make certain games easier to play. And you can connect to HDMI and just use a Bluetooth analog controller if you wanted. The Plus also has improved shoulder buttons. So its definitely incorrect to say that there are zero reasons to get the Plus.
@@GrimMeNaCeso? Garlic OS doesn't need updates cuz it just works, like it's done there's no features that need to be added.
Just set it up once and never worry about it...
Original runs garlic. New doesn’t
These handhelds emulate SNES games. How can they be outdated? They are for retro emulation, and they do retro emulation
That is an excellent question. It has to do more with the features, performance, specs, quality of the emulation and ROMs. If all you want to do is play old 8-bit and 16-bit games, this thing is pretty much perfect.
@@Portlydo the old games your sneaking of include barbie, Disney, and sailor moon games? Like the Gameboy advance games?
@@GoldenKingdom-kp6dt yup these things are great for game boy advance!
@@Portly would I need a new SD card or can I just play straight out of packaging?
@@GoldenKingdom-kp6dt it includes an SD card so you can play out of the box. May not have specific games you’re looking for, so if not you’ll need to source them yourself (I can’t legally tell you where to find them)
Many people do recommend getting your own brand name SD card either way because the included ones are known to fail after awhile
Rg35xx plus
Mm+ is better
No
The miyoo mini plus is not cheap and the regular one
And why did you comment
Wrong video bud
Just ordered two of these from Anbernics TikTok shop for £25 total... can't wait to get my hands on it and treat my GF to one.
£25 for two? Yeah you aren't receiving a thing.
@@Naeidea Royal Mail are delivering them tomorrow… it’s from their official TikTok, first time purchase offer on TikTok, actual price now is £43 per handheld.
@@Naeidea both arrived today and are totally legit 🙌🏻
@@JackCh91 damn well played! 👍
