1. you can adjust the colors and various aspects of the screen settings on the mini+ and I think it actually looks better when tuned than the 35xx 2. Software (especially Onion OS) is hands down better and more supported and has more awesome features on the mini+ 3.mini+ has wifi and retro achievements and ota updates 4. mini+ d-pad is way better feeling in games that need precision

[@diekritischestimme]

AND when I check on Amazon, they are both the same price, the RG35XX is not cheaper. @@PCGGC

[@joshbob-sx7kd]

Hey I just ordered one the other day. Should get it today. From what I've seen it has almost no sports games. Just wondering if you know if it does come with some or if I can put them on it. I have no clue how to do computer things but hoping I can figure it out

[@baldlyrudy]

@joshbob-sx7kd it comes with a few, but you can always add more. A quick Google search will point you in the right direction. Adding games is a fairly easy process.

[@joshbob-sx7kd]

@baldlyrudy I know to most people it seems easy but to me it's like going through a maze blindfolded. Do you know if madden or nba games can be played on it

[@OLLE-]

Thanks for this, great break down. I just managed to snag a Miyoo mini+. I think the dpad feeling and wifi capabilities was the overall reason I picked it. Amazing little gadget!

[@baldlyrudy]

You're welcome! Couldn't agree more. Those features pull me towards the Miyoo Mini Plus, easily.

I already bought Miyoo Mini Plus for my little brother, still waiting for it to be delivered and was a bit stressed about getting the wrong thing after doing some additional research, especially about the screen, but after watching the video I think he'll be fine. Big thanks

[@baldlyrudy]

Thanks for the comment! Yeah, I bought the one for my son and I got everything set up on the Miyoo Mini Plus for him. He immediately understood his way around it. It's a pretty nifty device and playing Pokemon with him is fun.

[@sh-hatman]

I ended up buying both, tested them myself and let me tell you, it's not even a competiton. The Miyoo Mini Plus is way superior.

[@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude]

can it play nintendo ds? can it play psp the 35xx can

[@sh-hatman]

@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude It can play some DS games, yes. I really don't see a usecase for PSP on this sized screen tho. Besides it's more about available firmware rather than raw power. OnionOS is way beyond anything available on the RG35XX. Yes that includes Garlic, wich is a poor imitation lacking many features and hasn't seen an update since release.. then there's a bigger battery, better screen filtering, better controls (dpad,shoulders). The MMP is just the better package overall, a lot better.

[@TheseOldCards]

@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude let’s be honest, who’s playing PSP on these? These things are Gameboy machines. Would be a better idea to buy a PSP and home brew it to run whatever you want if you really want PSP that bad.

People are reselling these Anbernics on TikTok for $150 and people are buying them💀

[@qsens]

I'm all about the 35xx because of HDMI and playing only 2D games it works fine for me. I like the extra chin too which makes it very comfortable to hold.

[@DungarooTV]

I have both and must say the Miyoo Mini Plus takes the edge as it's IPS screen looks better and with Onion OS it really shines but both are great!

[@baldlyrudy]

Onion OS has been a game changer for the experience on the Miyoo Mini Plus.

[@DungarooTV]

@@baldlyrudy Absolutely. By the way, I did a screen/sound test of both devices today and must admit - the RG35XX does have a brighter screen but if you look closely the colour science just looks a little off and borderline washed whereas the Mini Plus' screen has richer colours and looks overall better in my opinion...the sound on both are on par with each other and honestly unless you're playing outside in a very noise place without earphones - the Mini's sound is loud enough...but the Onion OS bulks up the positives even more...and the Wifi and ability to play online multiplayer takes it to a new level!

Thanks for all your coverage of these. I just canceled my preorder of the Capcom Super Pocket and got a Miyoo mini plus.

[@dandyboytv8204]

I own both devices. The onion OS team + wifi capabilities on the miyoo mini make it leaps and bounds better. HDMI on the 35XX is cool but I’ve tried it once. Miyoo with onion has multiplayer, trading, OTA updates, retro-achievements and you can add roms literally from your phone with FTP. Onion team even got DS games now working on the Miyoo. Really the only thing the 35XX has is a better build quality imho.

[@redfoot2]

Hey Rudy, I really wanted to thank you for this video. I was really having doubts about my Miyoo Mini Plus. But after watching your video it helped me to understand it more. I’m grateful for the way you broke everything down and gave your opinion on each handheld.

[@baldlyrudy]

Hey! You're very welcome! It means a lot. 🙌

[@CapnDredd]

I owned the 35xx for a few months and the battery life with the stock OS is abysmal. It keeps running even while it's in sleep mode. Just ordered the Miyoo and I'm looking forward to the comparison

[@GreySectoid]

This was an excellent and thorough comparison, especially regarding to the screens, made my decision easy. Subscribed.

[@baldlyrudy]

Thanks! Glad I was able to help.

[@parker_chess]

I'm leaning towards the Miyoo Mini+. The fact it has wifi means updating the system will be less of a hassle. Also a better d-pad for platformers. The only drawback I feel like is the ergonomics where the RG35xx comes ontop being slightly larger. I don't imagine myself playing for more than a hour or two at a given time though so I could get used to the size of Miyoo Mini. As far as annoyances, the Miyoo Mini has that annoying green light LED at the top but the RG35xx has the rattling shoulder buttons. Pick your poison they both would equally annoy me.

[@RemyBonnici]

I have never heard my XX rattle once. Probably because I don't shake it while playing games. It's a non issue.

[@LightningN1NjA]

You will love the Miyoo mini plus more for sure.

[@DoomedKnight]

Just pit a sticker on the light

[@cjbht19minaret]

Thanks for your detailed review. It helped me make my decision. I would say the biggest reason that I decided to go with the Miyoo Mini Plus was due to the fact that it has Wi-Fi and Onion OS seems more refined than Garlic OS. Also, I was able to order it for $37 with taxes and shipping included from a tiktok shop. I can't even be mad if I don't like it for that price.

[@baldlyrudy]

You're more than welcome. Oh yeah! At that price point, it's definitely a win.

[@nibblitman]

Yeah I mean at that price you could probably get both for under $100 and give the one you don’t like as much to someone else, that is a full out steal.

I personally like my 35plus quite a bit. I even tend to play it more than my RP2S which is insane cause the 2S is objectively a better device. Personally I’m not really enticed to buy the miyoo. Go with which ever one you like. They’re all quite great in it’s own regard. There’s a certain x factor each of these devices have and they all hit a bit differently to each person.

I did and it does work, but it's similar to the Steam Deck LCD screen.

[@Faine212]

Hmm is the screen similar to the Miyoo mini? I have the Miyoo mini and I guess I forgot how bad it looked. I justified it for myself by saying that the screen is still way better for Gameboy than actual Gameboys. I personally only played Gameboy on it currently because the screen is so small and the games are designed for small screens. Wish we could have a Miyoo mini plus OLED

Miyoo mini is very easy to mod compared to rg35xx and with the wifi you update the firmware easy. The RG95xx but with the system they emulate it barely matters unless you use a different OS and at best you can run some games above ps1 which is not really worth in IMHO.

@Vod_Villainous LMAO. Alright. That made me chuckle. Gotta love autocorrect. 🤣

[@Skreamies]

Am I able to just copy everything to a new Fat32 formatted SDcard and just plug it back in and play on a much better sdcard?

[@baldlyrudy]

Pretty much. I copied the entire card to a new one and it worked fine.

[@ripeundead8239]

Would I be able to add nintendo ds games to this device?

Iv been seeing it and have been wanting it, this helps but I would like to know which of these 2 have a sailor moon game I saw someone have it and iv been wanting to play it for the longest time

[@brentseely1156]

can the rg35x support ps2? would love to get silent hill 2 and rule of rose on the go

[@baldlyrudy]

Nope. For that I'd go for the RG405V, and even then it struggles with some, if not most, PS2 titles. I haven't finished messing with it yet.

[@apezer]

Hi, can you play Pokemon emerald and ruby and sapphire on miyoo Mini plus and is it installed? Thanks

[@baldlyrudy]

Yes and Yes.

[@popthatbeep]

Can I use andoid apps while gaming on the rg35xx?

[@baldlyrudy]

Not that I'm aware of. It's a Linux based system, so I'm guessing it can theoretically. I just don't know if this has been implemented or not.

[@thedonzo]

Wow this is the first review I heard someone say the miiyoo felt sturdier. Like I've watched tons of videos and read reviews and everyone said the rg35xx feels way better and it doesn't feel like cheap plastic like the mini plus, the main grip tho has been the d pad, that's pretty universal opinion. I have the rg35xx on the way now but I almost wish I'd had gotten the plus....btw I got mine from tik tok using a coupon so it cost me 32 dollars altogether with shipping and everything. So I'm excited about to get it.

[@heyitslissa23]

Are you going to a review of the data frog sf2000? I have it and I love it, I Would like to see your take on the console

[@baldlyrudy]

Funnily enough, it's literally sitting on my desk right now. Lol.

[@jefferrrson1x]

Great video man. I watched it all. Bought myself a Retroid rp3+ and kinda want a mini version. Think I’ll go with the motion! Thx!

[@baldlyrudy]

Thanks man! Glad you enjoyed it. 🍻

[@eimran6756]

Great video! Can you do a comparison between the Powkiddy rbg20s and Miyoo mini plus? Im trying to find a retro handheld and those are my two options

[@baldlyrudy]

Hey there! Thanks! I don't have a Powkiddy RBG20S, but I definitely plan on checking it out in the future.

[@joebailey4816]

Great video

[@baldlyrudy]

Thanks!

[@keithdailey6581]

You said “go ahead and” about 300 times in this 30 minute video and it drove me absolutely insane.

[@baldlyrudy]

Go ahead. There's 301. 🤣

[@laloslal4007]

On the miyoo mini plus be careful with the menu button. It stuck and gave me a lot of problems.

[@suzybanyon9833]

I have owned the original miyoo mini since launch but jumped on the 35xx when it was on offer. I played it for one time and now it won’t charge! There is literally no recognition on the charging light. It is definitely not the cable as the same cable will charge the miyoo. I am now back to playing the miyoo and wondered why I bothered with the anbernic device!

[@baldlyrudy]

I just bought the Miyoo Mini V2. I'm excited to see what all the hype is about.

[@lekinguitarrista8445]

Which one is better for playing Playstation 1 games?

[@baldlyrudy]

RG35XX, but at this point, I'd recommend the RG35XXH or the RG35XX Plus. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nIHdlnanq7WpmJIsi=0REd0bzg_hPDpFZn

Thanks dude! That means alot. 🙌

[@magnetpull7587]

Is it possible to speed up games only in Onion OS?

[@baldlyrudy]

Nope. All of the OSs that I talked about have the ability to speed up games. It's great for old school RPGs.

[@magnetpull7587]

Thanks !

[@baldlyrudy]

@magnetpull7587 you're welcome.

[@barabasgezu]

im thinking about getting a miyoo and I was wondering if anybody tried resident evil or Dino Crisis on this device. How was the performance?

[@igorteller1516]

There is an option to change to the Android system?

[@baldlyrudy]

Not that I'm aware of. You're probably going to be better of with an RG353V. I've also been messing with the RG405M and RG405V, both run Android.

[@KawikaLee408]

great review! i have a regular miyoo mini v2 cause i really wanted that smaller device but the honeymoon phase is over and the novelty is starting to wear off. i installed the onion 4.2 beta and it has some glitches for me. i tried installing newer updates (rc) but it bricked my device and i had to reinstall the beta version. not sure if it was user error because im pretty new to emulation and not the most savvy or if the 4.2-rc just isnt compatible with the mini v2 but it left a sour taste in my mouth. was debating on getting a newer device, especially since the plus has wifi capability but i think at this point im just going to wait for a solid gba sp clamshell device to come along. the powkiddy v90 is an awesome little value and once folded up is really close in size to the regular miyoo mini but just plain leaves some more power to be desired

[@baldlyrudy]

Thanks for the comment! Wow. Sorry to hear about the brick and issues. I actually just got a Miyoo Mini V2 in the mail late last week. Excited to mess with it.

[@KawikaLee408]

@@baldlyrudy i went crazy and got a speaker, and triggeer button upgrades as well as a bunch of fun accessories. i kind of expect to sell everything in a bundle to upgrade to a more capable device later down the line. designs for the miyoo flip have been floating around for a while now so im hoping i may be able to pick one of those up whenever it drops. hopefully miyoo can keep up with the demand because i know tons of people will be wanting it. if you make a video on updating the mini v2 and seeing what you can do with it i would love to watch! liked and subscribed!

[@baldlyrudy]

@KawikaLee408 thanks for the sub and like! Funnily enough, I also ordered a Sony Z5 speaker to install. But it was for my Miyoo Mini Plus. 😅 I'll post my thoughts when the time comes.

[@armyofninjas9055]

Honestly, if you want the least wonkiness possible on a handheld, get an android handheld. The internal drive and fleshed out OS make a huge difference. For the money, you're honestly probably better off with a retroid pocket 3+. This comes from someone who's been buying these things since the pocket go 1/bitboy era.

[@KawikaLee408]

@@armyofninjas9055 thanks for the advice!

[@YOUR_NARRATOR975]

I am pretty sure you can customize the screen colors, so if you know what you're doing, you can have the rg35xx color or more brighter than the stock colors.

[@baldlyrudy]

Yup. You definitely can adjust things. Like I mentioned in the video, screens will have to compensate in one area to push another. Even getting two exact iPhones will have slightly different variations in color. They're barely noticeable, but it's there.

[@douglasduda9826]

I got 4, 3 for kids for Christmas for 53 bucks each of the mini+ put onion 4.3 os on each of them its great.

[@dq3333]

I thought the build quality of the Miyoo Mini + was a tad under the RG35XX. It feels too fragile and the screen unless they've changed it can pop out of the casing causing bad screen bleed. I'd take the RG35XX for comfort and the screen blows the Mini's out of the water, no contest.

[@StopToBreathe]

Screen wise, you'll be surprised that the Mini plus actually has superior clarity when messing with the settings in retroarch, RG35XX is washed in comparison when you start applying the settings as mention in retroarch, afterall, the mini plus does boast a superior IPS screen

[@armyofninjas9055]

The build quality of the case holding the screen in is better on 35xx but the screen itself is worse.

[@somethingquaint]

Thank god I got the transparent blue Miyoo Mini!!

[@baldlyrudy]

Lucky.

[@alex-chicago-80]

It’s a give and take between both. I bought the 35XX on a whim. I’m not a huge gamer but it’ll be something that I can carry around. When you said that anew one with WiFi is coming out I felt falling into a wormhole yet again. You think you got something new and bang! lol

What one can play Pokémon best ? What has the better internals ?

[@baldlyrudy]

The better Internals go to the RG35XX. Both can play Pokemon games with ease.
