Thanks for the review! Youre the only one i've seen that included the thermals on a device! It's really helpful as i hate devices that get too warm to hold when playing! Please always include the thermals in all of your reviews as well as the battery life! ❤🎉

The size was the main reason for me to order the device. The original GameBoy is smaller and that was for children's hands. But all other vertical emulator handhelds are smaller than the original. And very often very very tiny. Unplayably tiny. I never understood that. Now there is finally a device for adults in the right size for adult hands. Still 2-3 days to wait, I'm looking forward. :) Thank you for the test.

@@LetsplayAori I am satisfied so far. I already had the Anbernic 351V and a RES2k, but they were both too small for me. Now it's much better, not perfect, but pretty good. Performance is enough, the system runs smoothly, if anything PS2 games might be a bit jerky. I haven't needed the fan yet, it's always off. The speakers could be a bit better, most smartphones sound better. The touchscreen is unfortunately not the best, inputs are not always accepted and sometimes you need some pressure. I also have the case and it fits perfectly. I will keep the device this time. :) I hope I could help you. PS: On the memory card with the games was not a single Mario game on it, strange. But there is everything on the net.

@@DeziByte I see thanks, yeah that with mario games is a weird thing which anbernic does. It's like they think that reduce their risk of getting busted for sharing copyrighted material or something like that pretty weird. If I will get it it would be mainly for 2d games which are dpad focused so not much n64 or later.

@The Phawx - When you remove the Back Panel, on the Main Board, what is the NBOOT Button on it.

i love the bigger size...especially in regards to the triggers... is there a higher end spec device like this?

I’m definitely going to buy this device it reminds me of Gameboy DMG especially that OG grey

That thing is massive, and has quite a bit if junk in the trunk. 😂 Great review! How'd did you find trigger sensitivity? Have seen a lot of complaints about accidental trigger presses while resting fingers on them.

I got mine and I love it but cannot get skies or arcadia on bream cast or game cube to run well enough to play. Any tips or tricks to try?

Hi, did you try the Mame's game (Arcade game) "Kung Fu Master"? Can the analog stick work correctly, for example run and kick at the same time? This is not working on my RG35XX. Thanks.

Yeah I've been thinking about getting this device for my 4:3 retro needs, it just seems like it fits like a glove. Also makes it easier so I can focus on a more high-end gaming experience on a larger x86 device (not a fan of the rog ally d-pad for example, but who cares if I play 2d platformers on here). Just wish it would do Saturn, PS2 and GC a slight bit more comfortably, hopefully they don't abandon this form factor in the future with a more powerful soc, but at this price point I can forgive it.

Odd question, is Castlevania symphony of the night preloaded on this device? I have a very select few games I want this for and it would be awesome if they were preloaded.

amazing device..i love mine. wood one... its my dreamcast and gamecube handheld...for psp i prefer retroid pocket 3/rg505/odin ones

Phaws can you make a video on Sega Saturn emulation is been a struggle to find a good handheld to play Saturn.

The sticks bug me as I own a RG351P & MP (just sold) & V as well as a RG353V - I’m a fan of the vertical orientation. But none of the sticks are much good on those devices so I’m a tad disappointed that they’re not great on this one either as I need - as well as to play heavier games to emulate - my regular fix of Robotron. And if these are no good then this device is sadly not for me.

Well I like where Abernic is going, all they really need to do is have a model with a recent snapdragon cpu and I'd buy it. I'm going to wait until they release something that runs ps2 games as good as my galaxy s20 fe. If the chip I had in my galaxy had active cooling like this it would run anything you threw at it.

AMD realese fluid motion frames in drivers for rx 7000 series and 7040 apu series, You will tested?

will there be usb-c to hdmi support?

What game is this The Phawx ma dude? 7:30 Awesome video as always. I Just realized because of its SoC it can't run Linux distros. Since Android is Linux, I say that's a win 🐧

Would this be worth it? What Anbernic Device would be recommended? Also, 1 thing I kind of liked with Systems like this, for example, the Dingoo A320, was it had FM Radio, and you did not need Headphones as a Antenna. Have you seen any Anbernic Devices have that kind of Feature?

One Game I would want to Test is SFIV-CE on Android.

mine was just delivered today. its what ive wanted. i guess some will say its too big. but i wanted a vertical bigger than the OG Game Boy. i wanted a bigger screen. the ergonomics are so much better than the Game Boy.

Is the 405m battery suppose to drain fast?

My screen protector did not fit unfortunately, no matter how I placed it , part of it was over the edge and you had huge air pockets, I had to press it on , then destroy it to get it off.

I'm definitely gonna get one. Need to sell off my Miyoo Mini+ and RG350m first.

Anbernic RG405V PS2 COMBIFLAM ARMY GTA GAME REVIEW PLEASE Sir

Heeeeeeeeeeeeee's back! Let's see!

If my concern was abut where I would put this in a bag then I would have to question my bag choice as this is still a small device. As far as having a crevice to make appliance of the screen protector is concerned, if a screen protector is considered a realistic requirement, then apply it at the factory, where it can be done correctly. But whilst companies like Anbernic offer pricing to include obviously Pirated games, they won't get any of my money.

Calling that ridiculously large seems to be kinda ridiculous to me, this looks to be maximum the size of the first Gameboy.

The upcoming GameForce Alpha is supposed to have a RK3588S for like $170, RK3588S is what the Orange Pi 5 uses. It runs NGC and PS2 at about the same level a Snapdragon 855 phone would, so most games would run at x2 or x1.5 resolution, PSP games at x4, Dreamcast at 1440P...
