RGB10 Max 2 Review

[@tedcruz1774]

You and Taki Udon are like the go to guys for all of us buying these things. Your opinions matter to us so much. Our hard earned dollars hang on your words. Thanks so much.

[@ShinkuGouki]

Go-to

[@adilator]

I apreciate the time you took to describe the feel of the buttons and dpad, that's quite important and most other reviewers don't get that.

[@Carrandas]

Got my RGB10 Max (1?) last week. A €110 device that comes loaded with thousands of games including all my childhood favorites, would have died for that as a kid. And it's a nice device: a good screen, decent buttons, doesn't feel cheap at all. Been a nostalgia trip. Managed to finish Asterix on the Master System thanks to the fact that I can now save my game :) Up next: Chrono Trigger, never played that one before!

[@feeglesnorf9351]

Very sad to see this release so swiftly after I invested in the rgb 10 max, I love my console but these QoL fixes would definitely help, really wish powkiddy would offer some sort of trade in/discount options for those of us interested in the upgrade. The fact that they're the same price definitely adds some salt to the wound but I'm happy for the people who get to enjoy this device, great review as always Russ but it's definitely weird that they're opting to not ship with an external Chicken cat this time around, feels like a step back imo

I've been holding off getting into retro handhelds like this, but I think I'm finally one generation away from dipping my toes into picking one up. This device is really close to what I'd like. With really good N64, GC, PSP, etc. compatibility, it'd be an easy sell for me. I'm almost tempted to pick this one up, honestly.

[@Dwhizzle]

That generation is pretty much here. Check out the Updated Retroid Pocket 2. I think it basically fits that bill.

Yeah my analog sticks are still reversed also.

[@Tolboy46]

You have to go into settings and select your device and the button layout you want. That fixes everything

[@youzernejm]

As wgc once said, the manufacturers are actually listening to the imput from journalists and testers, only thing is those journalists are based in East Asia, where the majority of their sales go (and where only morons pay for software). Making a good quality image is actually hard and time consuming, with some of the best rpi images taking their creators years to perfect. So, I'm honestly not surprised at all they are using pre-baked software. As always, great video.

[@mattb6522]

Man, I already got an Anbernic 351 device a couple months ago, but this looks really great! I'm probably not going to upgrade as I love my current device. This definitely seems like a solid pick for someone's first retro handheld, though. I'd still hold out until the new models with improved chipsets are finally released later down the line.

Thanks for this review. I'm really tempted. I don't have any handhelds yet so I see this as a good device for a beginner but I currently use a lightweight laptop and 8bitdo controller for my retro gaming and can play all the systems but it's not that convenient. I think I'll wait for the next generation.

I really like the look of it. I’m more an Anbernic fan even though I’m getting the Powkiddy Q20 Mini on the go, so I can’t say how much I dig them yet since I’m still waiting on it to be shipped but I like what I’m seeing so far. 🙂

[@brokensprites]

How much longer is the wait? and update when you decide if you like the product or not. I was thinking about either v90, q90, q20 mini or a66 for my niece and nephew. They all seem very similar in performance, although the a66 is completely different in hardware and requires more work... the quality and durability looks good. I have the pocketgo s30 with simple and it is decent, easy to load and not a terrible experience. Battery life is not the best, but I think simple settings and shaders might effect that. The input complaint about the hardware face buttons is true, but not important for rpgs. Basically an snes classic by hardware specs. I also have the rg351v with 351elec, arkos wasn't for me. It's really great and I appreciate all the options, especially with assigning emulation cores. The product itself was easy to use, impressive quality.... terrible battery life. Side note, I don't charge hot batteries and I don't use them immediately after charge.

[@SgtWiggy583]

Loved the video. Just ordered. Besides a raspberry pi configured a few years ago for 16 bit era and below, I haven’t dabbled in much emulation. Really excited for this one but it looks like I’ll have to wait until December 15th. Hoping I get it sooner. Thanks for the reviews.

Since my x18S arrived, I find it hard to go back to the older chipsets, even though the analog sticks and dpad on the x18s aren't stellar. I still use my A66 for portability, and my 3DS and Vita, but playing dreamcast games at full speed on the go is amazing. I've even gotten some gamecube games running decently with some tinkering.

[@RetroGameCorps]

Yeah the performance of the X18S is awesome, I wish they had put that chip in this shell instead.

[@tiefighter7257]

THIS IS REALLY COOL. I like the graphics, quality and retro graphics

[@K3nVV]

I really like the new design, however the chipset, the mono-speaker, and lack of heat distribution will be the reasons I won't spend to upgrade my RGB10Max to the Max2. I originally purchased the Anbernic 351M based on your review. I liked your review of the RGB10Max and purchased that one too. Until I see a substantial upgrade to the chipset, I will be holding off any future buys. I think this is a great pick for a newcomer though.

[@Alon456]

I like the design, It definitely looks comfortable but I still prefer the form factor of the RG350/1. The more pocketable the better. I don't like 16:9 screen for retro games, unless I play PSP games but for that I already have a modded Vita. I hope in the future Anbernic release a variant with the same size as the RG350 but with better chip.

[@caseyhayes4590]

I love this channel but it just makes me procrastinate buying a new handheld seeing how things are constantly improving. Perfect Saturn/GC/DC (the last era I was passionate about new games before MS/Sony took over) under $90 with great controls may be when the procrastination finally ends.

Exactly where I’m at. If I see an absurdly good Black Friday/cyber Monday sale, i might pick something up, but not actively looking to buy anything specific.

Got my first retro handheld this past week: the rg351mp. I really like it. It's a bit of a brick, but not uncomfortable for fairly long sessions. I think it is more comfortable than my original DS. I was thinking about the rgb10 Max 1, but the games I want to play fit better on the 351MP screen.

[@AntiAntagonist]

I'm considering getting a hand held emulator. I am mainly concerned with ergonomics and hardware capability. This device ticks a lot of boxes for me, but it not quite there. The heat dissipation is the biggest worrying factor for me; over the years any hardware that has trouble with heat management usually fails or has other underlying problems. If they can take care of that in the next generation I may go for it.

watched all of your videos and decided to buy the rgb10 max 2. Got it in dec 2021, and was loving this thing. Fast forward 6 months later. Charging issue is annoying but manageable. Can only change with low voltage USB-C charger and only when the device was kept on. A month ago, the screen started to stop working. I can heal the screen selection clicking sound, but screen goes blank. I had tried to open the housing and reconnect ribbon cable with zif connection. 1 out of 10 times fixes the issue. Even tried to clean out and inspect connection between gold fingers and prongs. At this point, i dont kown what to do... i really wana continue playing my games... grr what are other devices you recommend so I can just migrate my SD card with Emuelec? thanks in advance.

I only got my RGB10 Max last week (ordered it just days before this was announced smh) - I've been playing with the brightness at only 30% in RetroOz, so either they started shipping the brighter screen with the older shell or I don't have a problem with the dim screen.

[@wargamesmaster]

Right now my money will go to Anbernic, I wasn't disappointed by the RG351V (I love both the "GameBoy" design and what it can emulate) and I bet in a few years there will be an Anbernic device powerful enough to play to PS2/GC/XBOX games (in addition to all the retro consoles we know).

[@SpiritaeliaWolf]

I'm considering the RGB10 max 2 mostly for game streaming purposes... Sometimes I'm torn between getting a game on the PC or on the switch for handheld, if it's available, but this way I can have both without the stress of deciding one or the other. Plus it would be a nice little upgrade from my powkiddy v90, which I love, though the buttons are a bit too firm and kinda hurt after longer play time, and the bigger screen would definitely be welcome. I also considered the RG552, but that one is a little to high on the price range...

Hi, thanks for the feedback. I bought this device because I was genuinely curious as to whether this would become my favorite device among a chipset that I've tested extensively. Turns out it was. I used this title because I get a lot of questions about whether this one is my favorite, since I had previously picked the RG351P, and then later the RGB10 Max. I recognize that my chosen title is more click-baity than simply "RGB10 Max 2 Review", but I thought it got the point across and the latter wouldn't really say much to those who don't know anything about retro handhelds. I also don't like superlative titles, I'm working on trying to find a balance between informing potential viewers about the content of the video and being genuine.

It totally amazes me how often these guys knock out new models. :) I suppose it's a good thing, they refine the shell and button features that will carry over to a new chip. I already own a couple of rk3326 devices plus a hacked psvita (which is my favourite). The next gen of these Chinese handhelds is looking though!

[@RetroGameCorps]

I think they outsource to multiple factories, so they have multiple devices in the works at all times. It's tiring trying to keep up with all of it :)

[@markangeloayaton4559]

Auto buy? This really look so good. Its like they made a definitive edition of their own RK3326, counterpart of Anbernic RG351MP. Excited for the next gen chip.

I've also tried using a USB wifi dongle and I still cannot get it to show a Wifi icon nor detect any networks.

This looks exactly like something I would purchase because of the preloaded library of games on it. I have a few favorite games from the GB/GBA/GBC/PSP era that I would love to have again. This seems like my only option to get them back since I have ZERO experience and knowledge about how to go about finding older games and putting them on a handheld.

It reminds me the shape of the GPD G5A with greater power. I sold my RGB 10 Max for the X18S and I'm starting to regret watching your video.

[@nologicneeded1476]

I've been watching your videos and I'm not sure whether to buy this or the RGB20S. The RGB20S almost looks like it runs N64 games better but has a worse design. I'm kind of looking for a pre-loaded library. Should I buy this or the RGB20S?

[@Themaninblack19]

Does it come with games or do you have to download them ?

[@retrogameintensity]

No games

[@Jesus_Saves_J2415]

It comes with 17000 to 30000 games

[@contrastmike1620]

​@@Jesus_Saves_J2415 Do you know if it has Mortal Kombat 1,2, & 3? , Killer Instinct? and that bootleg Street Fighter that let's you play all crazy? 😀

Well, with Steam Games, you can edit the controller config to invert both sticks, so that would fix that issue when it comes to streaming. And idk how it works on RetroOZ, but does it not have the gameControllers config or whatever for SM64 like it does on Anbernic devices? I figured that would let you invert the sticks as well..

[@RetroGameCorps]

Unfortunately it’s not that simple. The SDL bindings in Moonlight and ports like SM64 are defined by axis only, and so you can set the X and Y axes, but you can’t invert them. PowKiddy mislabeled the controls in the binary so it’s going to take some time to fix.

[@Nexus71c]

@@RetroGameCorps ah gotcha. Yeah that makes sense. I just figured at least with Steam, you can probably remap the sticks to have up be down and vice versa. But yeah I get what you mean. Hopefully they fix that in due time

[@gedatsu95]

Super undecided between getting this or the original MAX. I think the original has better looks and color options, but the stacked shoulder buttons on the MAX 2 are tempting...

[@studbyte]

casually watching this video while my optical drive tries to eject, no biggie :D

[@ScrabblePlays]

Picked this up. Wanted it for that couch game streaming solution, but just can’t get moonlight working properly on it where it works on my phone no problem. It’s amazing for emulated systems and retro achievements though!

Are you able to connect bluetooth headphones to it?
