ANBERNIC RG40XX H Official Unboxing

[@jacu27]

I can't wait to test it out, I like that design with a 4-inch screen 👍🏻

[@jason_lyt]

Well done Anbernic

[@jonathonearl482]

My goodness it is literally impossible to satisfy this generation of people! They will find every little nitpick to complain about. No matter how many options of handhelds you give them.

[@Gajbotron]

steam deck is probably the best proof for your statement... some people simply can`t be satisfied.... because THEY DON`T KNOW WHAT THEY WANT. :)

[@_ghr0_]

Anbernic, having shoulder buttons with a "Crisp Sound" is not a feature. The RG ARC shoulder buttons were better than this.

[@rcarlos6]

100%

[@Matucks]

I pray they make a second version of the RG ARC-D with the same 6-Buttons, add an analog stick, and keep the D-pad and 6-Buttons. 6-Buttons is far superior than all these 4-button designs. I'm sick of these companies only catering to Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft

[@JaviPlayRetro]

[@jonathonearl482]

I like this design, display size and ANBERNIC Linux stock firmware! Wish the battery was a little bigger, though I can look beyond that for now. Also, I appreciate the added ports!

[@skewyangel]

The added ports are a bad thing, because these are pirated copies. Additionally, this could cause big problems for PortMaster if they keep including pirated copies. We could end up with PortMaster getting in legal trouble and shutting down, all because of Anbernic. And it's different compared to retro ROMs, because these are modern games that are still being sold.

[@jonathonearl482]

@@skewyangel I think people are overreacting about the ports. It's only a few games and a very narrow selection of games (only certain titles). If Portmaster was really in any trouble it would have happened long ago. These handhelds from China have been giving us free ports for at least 10 yrs, every since they made the 1st retro handhelds! Every since I've bought my 1st retro handhelds. If the ports bother you that much, you don't have to buy the handheld. No one is forcing you to purchase it.

[@aaronjames7266]

@@skewyangel but portmaster exists now, it'll just keep getting handed around online if not directly from them.

[@scizfoshiz]

they should have at least kept the specs from the 405M if not used the specs from the 556/cube. the screen quality should have jumped up to a 960x720 4" and the battery in the 4,000 - 5,000 range. i think they nailed the button layout. this is exactly what i would want a 405M version 2 to look like. if this device could play GC & PS2 it would be perfect

[@jonathonearl482]

@@scizfoshiz Everyone is entitled to their personal opinion. It's not a complete deal breaker for me but I agree that the battery should have been bigger. I like stacked triggers though, I wouldn't have minded the inline triggers from the RG405M. I could have done without the analog. Love the chipset and ANBERNIC Linux stock firmware it comes with, never had a problem with that and I prefer it over Android.

[@codered7070]

Why is the battery so small?

[@dbozgt]

agree should be 4000mah

[@Matucks]

Please DON"T abandon the 6-Button design found in the RG ARC--D. Please make a second version with more capable hardware to actually play the entire SEGA Saturn library and also add an analog stick to cater to SEGA Dreamcast, the 6-Button is far superior than all the 4-Button handhelds. the market is flooded with these already and honestly its a bit overwhelming. Be brave again and make it one more time please. This would be a huge hit and will be the ultimate SEGA handheld

[@scizfoshiz]

make the arc d version 2 keeping the dual boot but give it a 960x720 4" screen and add sticks with the 556 specs inside!!

[@Matucks]

@scizfoshiz I really hope Anbernic's team read these comments because as a SEGA fan this will make for a great holiday season. Tired of everyone catering to Sony and Microsoft with designs.

[@jisoolee38]

When will the product be sold?

[@saulovilanova2184]

This is the one. Cant wait.

[@ScottyNelson-d2w]

Great job on the button layout. I like both sticks on the bottom and how they are as close to the screen as possible. This really should have a 960x720 pixel 4" screen and have a 4,000 - 5,000 battery. Also should have the same specs as the 556/cube. You got the button layout and overall size of the device perfect and shorted us on specs that you already have on other devices? Why? There is no way this should be less powerful than the 405M.

If I could change a few specs with the RG40XXH, here is what I would change: 1. It would have a 4,000mAh battery. 2. It would have no analog sticks. 3. It would have the same style inline triggers as the RG35XXH. What I would keep: 1. The H700 chip along with the ANBERNIC Linux stock firmware. 2. The set of down firing stereo speakers. 3. The 4 inch 4:3 aspect ratio display 4. The dual micro sd card setup. 5. The overall PS-Vita style console shape.

[@AngeloRocha]

Great Anbernic, please improve the Anbernic RG35XX H firmware, add the duckstation core for Playstation, it's the best emulator there is for PS1.

[@locked01]

Can we please have an RG ARC-D with more powerful CPU?

[@DarthPhillius]

Please Anbernic; (as an owner of the RG35XXH) can I please ask you stop including the ports. It's great that the XX consoles can now run Portmaster but it leaves a bad taste on my mouth that the firmware includes pirates versions of games that can still be bought. Several indy titles released by small developers. It's one thing including roms to long forgotten about games but including these ports is just going to have a negative impact on our hobby and the industry.

[@Kennephus]

With Nintendo's recent legal action, these companies need to get ahead of the lawsuits and just stop offering loaded SD cards. I know there will be some business impact, but it will be nowhere near the blow of that lawsuit.

[@pixelbender1532]

I agree fully. I'm a modder and reseller and it puts us in a really sticky situation to include Nintendo roms. It would be best if consoles came with zero Nintendo roms.

[@joeshlong9614]

Nahhh keep all the games. Saves me some time and trouble.

[@pixelbender1532]

​@@joeshlong9614I didn't understand this... The roms they provide are mostly trash anyway. It's actually easier to create your own collection. No loading up trash, hacked, broken, or foreign games.

[@DarthPhillius]

@@Kennephus that's kind of what I'm getting at. Anbernic are based in China so litegation would be next to impossible. So for the IP Holders (if they went the Nintendo route) would be to go after Port Master. Which wouldn't be very fair as they're quite vocal against piracy. Port Master is meant to be used with games you actually own whether it's disc, steam or gog.

Not liking the crazy-loud shoulder buttons...

[@estylegreesye4384]

I don't even understand where this is coming from. Who the hell started those clicky shoulder buttons, anyway? I hate them! Even if it's not that loud, as long as it's clicky I don't like them. I prefer quiet conductive rubber shoulder buttons as they are on the SNES or PS controllers.

[@zimmmmify]

what is the difference between that model and rg cube?

[@johnduncan5117]

This is a budget device. Much lower spec than the Cube in terms of processor. Also Cube has analogue triggers. People complaining that the spec is not as good as the Cube are missing the point - this device is in the xx range which are budget devices around the 45 to 80$ price point.

[@johnduncan5117]

Cube also has a tactile screen and runs Android. This is a Linux system.

The battery should have been at least 3500mAh (and there's space to it). So we can assume that the RG35xx Plus, H and SP will last longer since the screen is 3.5 inch and they don't have RGB lights.

[@pixelbender1532]

I've been waiting for a quality 4" or 5" 4:3 system with a top d-pad but with the low performance, clicky shoulders... Just get the RG Cube and wait for something better.

[@3godzilla3]

So this is literally just the H, but with a bigger screen and stacked triggers. Hard pass. Next time, put in a chipset like the T618 in the 405M, and you might've convinced me (the 405M doesn't have Dpad on top or stacked triggers, so this would've been perfect for me)

Hi Anbernic team, I would like to suggest an improvement to the design of your consoles. Currently, the placement of micro SD cards is not very practical. It would be great if you could implement a tray for micro SD cards similar to the ones used in mobile phones. This would make inserting and removing the cards much easier, enhancing the user experience. Thank you for considering this suggestion! Best regards.

[@rcarlos6]

I disagree. A tray would require a tool to remove it. The current tooless design is more practical.

[@kreatur3able]

How often do you remove your cards. 🤣

[@panchodemmy]

@@kreatur3able Of the Anbernic consoles I have, I took out the microSD cards about 5 times and then never again. Besides, as there are so many models, community support starts to decline, so it is not necessary to keep changing the operating system.
