    I just got it today for the RG28XX. Love the stock OS, all I have to do is loud up my own games, such as MAME games, and if it cannot run via retroarch, you can always run from their standalone emulators located in the GameRoom. One thing to note is the SEARCH function is just epic! and it allows you to run it via Retroarch or Standalone emulators and in my case, retroarch could not run my MAME games? No worries, I will run it with other emulators installed with the stock OS and they run just fine!

    I had 1, it's run only logo (memory that from factory with stockOS) and charge so long time, sometimes it's run game less than 5 minutes and blackout. I changed another memory, it's run only logo. When I plugged out, it's low battery till not have any light that showed what's going. Is it possible that have problem from battery?

    I would have bought the Galileo, but my X2 pro lost a button and customer support says they don't sell replacement. Amazon says they ship it with two sets of xaby buttons so I got another X2 pro. But if it also gets messed up and there's no remedy AGAIN, I'll probably never buy another Gamesir.

    RG556 it is. Im not too into Nintendo so emulating Switch flawlessly doesnt matter to me. Itll play my entire library. And pretty perfect looking for using GeForce now. That and the R/L buttons snapping constantly (ive seen soo many reviews about this) it tells me the RP4 is going to cost even more in repairs. Thanks for the video. Definately helped me narrow things down.

    I have the Steam Deck with an anti-glare OLED display and I compared it to my Switch OLED playing the same games. While I do agree that the glossy screen is more appealing to the eye, the colors on both screens look almost the same. The black levels on the anti-glare OLED display are just as deep as the ones on the Switch OLED. I also notice that the Switch OLED has slightly more color saturation on green or yellow colors, but other colors are equally vibrant and colorful on both screens. The differences are so small that I wouldn't notice them without looking at both screens side-by-side. It's something that would only bother you if you are very nit-picky. Glossy screens are definitely more appealing because they add a nice shine to the screen, but they barely affected color contrast on my Switch OLED when I compared it to my Steam Deck. It's also worth noting that I didn't play any games with HDR support, so I didn't take advantage of my Steam Deck's HDR feature when I compared it to my Switch OLED. That way, the comparison would be more apples-to-apples. Matte screens are bad for OLED displays, but the anti-glare screen on the Steam Deck OLED is not actually a matte screen. It is more like a hybrid between matte and glossy, so you get the best of both worlds. I have laptops with matte screens and they look very different than the anti-glare screen on the Steam Deck. On a matte screen the texture is usually very grainy and it is difficult to see your reflection on it, but the Steam Deck's anti-glare screen is not grainy and you could still see your reflection through it much easier than a matte screen, though glossy screens are still much more reflective.

    Yep, but you might need to delete older stuff. If you can pick a handful of GC or PS2 games you're not interested in, you'll free up enough space for entire libraries of older systems.

    I want you to film yourself breaking this! I already have a Cube. Mine has a little light bleed at the top, nothing like the review unit. I love the design. I'd recommend the RGB30 over this for anyone who doesn't have one and wants a 1:1 screen. I wish this could dual boot to linux.

    I'm so disappointed in anbernic for making the rg40xx h. That could've been the rg406p with 8gb of ram, but instead we got a 35xx h with a 4 inch screen. :/ I like the cube though. Not too bad. Psp isn't an issue for me. I have no issues stretching out the screen. It doesn't bother me too much though it would probably look better on the future 406m or p that anbernic will eventually make further down the line.
