Good price, big job changing the center gear though isn't it. Fine if you've done it before but not for the feint hearted. I picked one up too but it was advertised as fully working, it wasn't, the center gear was broken so I sent it back. Since then though I've got heavily into fixing up personal stereos. Created a little sister channel SpoolsOfSound but I mostly work on super slim late models. For some unknown reason I seem to have a magical touch with them.🤣

The capacity itself isn't the problem its finding anything that will fit the connector. Anbernic washed their hands of the Win600 as soon as it hit the market, much like they do with ALL their products, getting spares is impossible as they refuse to sell them and won't help in sourcing alternatives.

@handheldgaming4life I guess it depends what you get out of the hobby. I think the sf2k is a really fun and unique little machine with decent community support. If you don't enjoy tinkering and just want performance every time then yeah it's a waste of money but that seems contradictory to the hobby tbh. And at a certain point price doesn't even matter. $14?? Like come on. And I've seen them for less.
@handheldgaming4life17 күн бұрын
The problem I have with the device is no mater how much you tinker you can't squeeze anything extra out of it, no amount of community is going to fix that unless they can develop a genuine custom OS that can pluck performance out of think air. Other than adding some other emulation, and thats pretty janky, the modding of the device is very much a dead end. I recently reviewed 2 other handhelds, that I picked up for the same price as the SF2000 and they're both better in every meaningful way. Or just buy the MM+ and have a great gaming experience without constant need to tweak everything.

I just bought a POWKIDDY RGB10 MAX3 and was hoping to configure it to basically just play Skyrim, but I’m torn if that will work and how to go about it correctly. Do you have a walkthrough on how you installed and ran the game, and do you have an opinion on whether I can achieve this with the handheld I’ve gotten and if it’ll work? I appreciate the help and advice!

Skyrim barely hits usable FPS on the Anbernic. I doubt it will even run on Powkiddy. I'd say if you can find the Anbernic for $100 it would be worth buying for classic gaming. But there' really are a lot better options now. Sadly they are all quite expensive now though.

Hey Brother! I’m over here in the US in Alabama and I also got a pretty good deal from Whatgeek. I’m pretty sure we got the same discounts on it. That was my first time ordering from them and I was a little bit on the fence ordering from a Chinese vendor. It did take about 12 days to get here but sure enough, it did. Overall great experience if you have the patience. All in all I love the Win 4. It does get a bit hot on the right hand side if you have the performance turned up for a period of time but it works fine for me. I tried the Ally X, Legion Go and Steam Deck and all of them just seemed to be a bit large for me. I would have loved to see a 7” screen on it but I bought it for portability and power. Still checks those boxes so I’m keeping it. Thanks for the video and you got a new sub from me. Cheers!
@handheldgaming4lifeАй бұрын
Yeah Whatgeek seem to be a bit old school in shipping. I'm guessing they batch up their orders every 5 days as nothing seems to happen after initial order. But then boom its shipped and then the fun tracking begins. For the discounts on offer though I think its worth it. Agreed about portability though. I was hands on with a Ally-X the other day and if I want something chungus I'll grab my Deck! 😂 If I want performance and portability the Win4 is hard to beat.
