An unfortunate consequence of the constant cycle of upgrades. They've made 21 different handhelds. I wonder how much a unifying rebrand for newer models together with their ease of use would boost sales. Retroid Pocket has got the easy branding, but the setup isn't easy at all.

RG is typical Anbernic prefix. 35 I think has something to do with 3.5" display. XX might mean something else. I usually see 'V' devices with a vertical screen. 'M' or 'P' seems to be horizontal.

This can become a retro console when needed, which is why I preferred this over the Miyoo Mini or Miyoo Mini+.

I loved my Miyoo Mini but my hands are too big for it to be comfortable to play for long periods of time. I was having issues playing for more than 5-10 minutes without my hands hurting. So I ordered the RG35XX a couple weeks ago. It being bigger is a huge pro for me. I think this thing is a great option for people to get into retro gaming. Even some more expensive ones aren't even available when you order (looking at you, Analogue Pocket).

I purchased a RG35XX about a month ago. I plan on buying some replacement shoulder buttons and a bigger battery, but with GarlicOS I feel like there really isn't much need for a lot of changes. I could live with the shoulder buttons, and the battery life is only about 4.5 hours with lower screen brightnesses, but it's still a solid little handheld. Plus, the purple case almost matches my OG Game Boy Color. Totally worth the purchase if you don't already have a handheld that will play up to PS1.

Honestly if I knew a way to do it with the rg280m, I'd use it a lot more that the mini. Sounds silly, but as an adult who gets most of their play time in very short bursts, the fact that it's just one button to start and stop is significant. Side note, the steam deck's sleep function basically turned me back into a PC gamer. Game changer is right.

One thing that the RG35XX has over the Miyoo Mini is a Real Time Clock. This affects Pokemon games from gen 2. The Miyoo Mini gets around this by moving the clock forward every time you turn on the handheld, but you can't change the amount of hours it'll jump ahead. Miyoo Mini Plus also won't have RTC, but it'll have wifi so you can sync the time that way. Might be bothersome if you're away from an Internet connection though

Personally I love my miyoo mini but the scarcity of it makes it an easy target for price gouging, especially since the screen is so sensitive that it breaks easily. I already dropped some more bones for mods like better triggers and a case that turns into a grip and love it, still if I busted it I'll get the RG35xx as a replacement. For me personally its a matter of OS and the Garlic/Onion OS is where it's at, easy to install and personalize to my taste. Plus features that takes advantage of the portability. I need the sleep mode as I use my pocket consoles for stray game sessions during dry spells of activity. Being able to boot up where you left off and sleep the console when you gotta do something at the press of a button is essential for the stop and go in my day to day life. I got everything I need for now thanks to Onion and the pocketability of the miyoo my next emu console purchase will be if something is within the same pocket size but comes with dual analog so I can play the few ps games that need it like Dark Stone or if my Miyoo nose dives on to the floor. I'd like to thank you for mentioning that the Garlic OS has the same features as Onion. All I've seen is people showing the install and the tile UI I haven't seen anyone make a comparison to the features.

I have to say of all my portable handhelds (now it could also be the games I play), I wind up now using my 35xx more than even my rp3+ just for its connivence, comfy size and reasonable portability. It goes with me every day when others are a 'maybe' choice and I have enjoyed the heck out of it. A few things I could wish were better, battery life being one as If It could just get 1-2 more hours on average it would feel basically perfect, the back buttons since I don't need them for games much, mainly function/menu commands they aren't that key, but I wish it also had a more responsible and tactile volume control. If this had a little bit better battery, and the volume wheel of the mini, I think it would be a 10/10

Another thing to note is to pray that once your Miyoo Mini ships, that it actually gets to you. A friend and I have ordered directly from their store page on separate occasions (recommended by another friend who got his on one of their drops as well) and both of ours either got lost in shipping or landed at a completely different location out of our state and they were incredibly difficult to deal with. I’m still waiting on a refund and it’s been months… So when I saw the 35XX drop, I bought it instantly on their preorder page and got it in a few weeks. I’m absolutely obsessed with it. My RP 2+ is collecting dust as we speak because the portability and form factor of the 35XX is exactly what I needed.

I got my RG35XX a week ago. Immediately installed Garlic OS 1.0.5 and it's been amazing ever since. I freakin' love this thing! Haven't touched my PC or PS5 since I got it lol. It feels so good to play all of these classic titles that I missed out on as a kid on the go. I ordered mine through keepretro. I went with them because they inspect the product before it gets to you and they handle returns/refunds if necessary. In total I paid $64.99 + $15.78 for expedited shipping which I'm not entirely sure if that was really necessary. I don't know how much of a difference expedited shipping makes over standard but I ordered mine on January 21st and received delivery February 8th.

@@mikepotapa5773 it's very easy to install. The only issue you would possibly have on Mac is access to the proper applications to do the entire installation process. I have a PC so I don't know if there are any solutions for Mac. I'd recommend checking out Retro Game Corps KZbin channel. He has a full video and written guide on how to install Garlic OS for the RG35XX. Maybe there's a way to get this all to work on Mac.

Have to say the sell point was the size of the system. The Miyoo Mini V2/3 was as big as a stack of playing cards so it fit perfectly into the pocket and even into those card deck holders for belts. Reason why I wanted one so I can put it in say a shirt pocket whilst the Miyoo Mini Plus and RG35XX wouldn’t be able to. Least for my shirt pocket size.

Hope you don't mind I dropped the link to your vid and name on the Anbernic "how did you hear about us" for the device. I saw your short a few days ago and have been waiting for a gameboy style easy-to-emulate device a little bigger and more available than the Mi Yoo mini. So I was pumped that there wasn't much tinkering (I've had the retroid pocket and another device in the past and I'm too lazy to do to much tinkering if I'm perfectly honest. Plug and play for trips, ferry rides or chillin are what I was looking for). Thanks, Bob!

I wanted the Miyoo mini...I tried to get it for months. Then I got the RG35XX and I realized that this is actually what I wanted/needed - I have a pocketgo collecting dust, it's a novelty device, I don't have a miyoo but I assume it's the same.. just a novelty. I've already spent more time on the RG35XX than any of my other retro / mod devices - it's comfy, does its job (even on stock), fits in a shirt pocket - I might order a 2nd unit "just in case"

I think one of the best combinations (2022) you can have is the iPhone, and the Retroid Pocket 3+. You get access to iOS Apps and Android Apps, all while being easy to take anywhere as you put them into two pockets. Plus the emulation experience is very very good. My previous combo recommendations: - 2022 iPhone 13 Max and Retroid Pocket 3+ - 2019 Samsung S10+QSD and Razer JungleCat - 2017 Samsung S8+QSD, and PS Vita Slim jailbroken - 2015 iPhone 6S Plus, and GPD XD - 2014 Samsung Note 4+E, and new3DS Jailbroken - 2011 Samsung Note 1, and PSP-3000 hacked - 2007 iPhone 3G, and DS Lite (flash cart) - 2004 Nokia N90, and GBA (flash cart)

the miyoo mini always looked way too small to me, at least for adults. but it looks like it would be the perfect little first handheld for a kid you want to introduce to old video games first. if only it wasnt so fragile, it would definitely need a thick rubber pumper case if you give it to a kid.

Yeah I understand that miyoo isn’t the largest company but it’s outrageous how small the drops are compared to Anbernic’s constant across the board availability for all their consoles. It gets to a certain point where I think miyoo is actively trying to cultivate exclusivity because it’s instant cash and a less risky investment. I just gave up on getting one after my first try and bought some bigger systems that I’m happy with. Would love to see some of the other companies take their own swing at the ultra portable market to perhaps take miyoo down a peg. A retroid mini sounds either like fun or a nightmare

According to them, its because they couldnt get the screen. Which is why Miyoo is making a bigger version. But then its basically the same as this device.

I bought my RG35XX almost a month ago because I was not going to fuck around with bots and scalpers clawing at miyoo minis like it's a fucking gold rush. I kinda felt like I was making a compromise, until I saw all the support from Black Seraph, theme makers, and the general consensus shifting in the favor of Anbernic. I am very pleased at how well things turned out for this console.
