👉 Join me as we take a look at the ‪@ANBERNIC‬ RG35XXSP, a 3.5" Linux powered handheld and the first ever clamshell device from Anbernic. This is a handheld that is heavily inspired by the Nintendo Gameboy Advance SP, but unlike that handheld, the 35XX SP brings power, a higher resolution screen, and the ability to play games all the up to Playstation Portable. This handheld is powered by the Allwinner H700 like many of Anbernic's recent budget devices. Please join me as we go very in-depth and examine Anbernic's take on the clamshell handheld and do a full unboxing, teardown, and even some button pressing ASMR.

I'm about to do the same as well but it started with an Analogue Pocket. I got very interested in this one because of the clamshell form factor (making it more of a "pocket" handheld than the Analogue Pocket ironically) and nostalgia ofc, but then I now also want an original GBA or GBA SP mainly to use the link cable for multiplayer action without having to splurge out on another Analogue Pocket for it.

On the sleep/power off deal. I added the stock mod option and set it to sleep on lid close and safe shutdown on a single press of the power button. Enables me to quickly shutdown if I won't be going back for awhile and still use "sleep" function if I'll be back in a few minutes. Best of both worlds in my opinion.

Figured I was good with SD at the house, Odin 2 when going away for a long time and RP Flip when traveling locally… But man… Couldn’t help myself but order as soon as it was available. I even woke up super early to get it. Thing that sucks is that it says my ETA is June 1st, but I literally ordered 15 minutes after it was available and even now it still shows May 25th-June… But yet it gave me June 1st. Boo! lol

The T black somehow makes it look less chonky than the silver one. I appreciate u showing something different than other reviews. It's made me consider the T black one now. Although I feel that a clamshell with a 1:1 screen would be the ultimate? The RG35XXSP tugs on the nostalgia heartstrings but considering the era of consoles that will be mostly played on this device wouldn't a 1:1 screen be better? That's what the RGB30 and RGB20SX were praised for, so... RGB30SP incoming? Over to you, Powkiddy :)

39:09 Ever since the PLUS came out, these stick-less units always had a built-in quick remap feature where you tap the power button to switch the D-pad to simulated analog stick. Works in RetroArch N64 cores and Dreamcast cores at the very least. It's a shame they didn't tell you this in the user manual, but the official demo video showed this feature. And it's also a shame that no community firmware devs have implemented this, but that might be why stock OS had to use Ubuntu as the underlying linux base.

They didn't say anything about RP Flip's buttons for example, and I found those buttons to be VERY loud and slightly hard to press, so when I saw Russ complaining about SP buttons I decided not to buy one. So how are these buttons compared to Flips (if you have one)? I mean face buttons, dpad and maybe shoulders?

Do you see any flickering in pokemon emerald? The 4:3 screen should be unable to properly display the game because it is 3:2 and not linear to a 3x integer scale.

I have a v90 and was wondering just how much of an improvement this is compared to that...
@retrotechdad
@retrotechdad Ай бұрын
As much as I love the v90 since it's cheap, VERY pocketable, and has its charms/quirks, the 35XXSP is definitely an improvement in almost every way.

The thing about D pads is that it really does depend on the game. A dpad like the SP wouldn't be good for fighting games, but is perfect for platformers and is likely to pass the contra test. I think it just has to do with the way the d-pad is built and designed. You can't have a super clicky and stiff pad like the original SP while also trying to have something that is ideal for quarter circles and other fighter moves. Let's remember this is a Chinese company working likely out of a warehouse, designing these sub $100 devices. Lol.

Ok, I'm almost afraid to ask....how long is Ambernic shipping to the US?
@retrotechdad
@retrotechdad Ай бұрын
I'd say about 2 weeks give or take. Anbernic is usually pretty solid about shipping times.

How do you add games if you get the 64gb only version?
@retrotechdad
@retrotechdad Ай бұрын
You can add a few more games on the 64gb card, but it's filled quite a bit. The easiest way is just to grab another micro SD and load it up with your favorite games. Just put the card in the second slot, turn on the device, and then it will create the folders for you automatically. You can then take the micro SD and plug it into your computer to copy your games over. 🙏🙏

A great retro handheld. But please keep expectations in check. It has a Gameboy Advance SP form factor and control set (few extra buttons). Dont focus on or buy it for any consoles that feature or require an analogue stick. Despite its power, use it appropriately as its nostalgic design suggests.

No, I just added my own second micro SD card that I actually pulled from my 28XX. It made things nice and easy! The one that was included was a Kioxia branded card and I've never personally had any issues with them (Kioxia is a Toshiba rebrand).

No, it's not included on the 64GB card. There's a surprisingly limited amount of games for N64 on there. The game can be added very easily though to the included micro SD or on a secondary card. 🙏

Some place in China: Anbernic: we have been developing the best handheld in years... So how can we make it less good? CEO: How about... Noise switch buttons that can bother the hell out the person next to the player? Anbernic: Ok, good! But how about the competition? Powkiddy is releasing good handhelds everyday. How can we make a device that will appeal to powkiddy users? CEO: What if... We put the CPU right below the battery? Anbernic: say no more, sir!
