The RG35XX Plus is Amazing, And Here's Why!

[@nicholasrobinson4343]

From one dad to another, you are great at what you do!

[@TheEverydayDad]

Well thanks so much!

[@lupinforever9334]

I got the RG35XX last year after Miyoo mini become a big hit but I choose Anbernic because of the price and I really impressed with it , I thought I will be bored after a week but one year later I still playing through all the games I missed and also recommended to many friends how I wish it would have a way to connect to friends devices and play a joint game.

[@aster22380]

I got bored in 2 hours lol

[@lliixzllii1794]

I started this hobby around early 2020 and I now have 19 handhelds and have gifted multiple handhelds to my brother and friends. It's a really cool hobby and perfect for me because I like to tinker and test games, etc. Welcome to the club lol!

[@fnfxncyy]

is this better than the miyoo mini plus?😊

[@calebpeters6267]

Why is everyone saying they are buying like 15 of them? Should I be scared to buy one?😂

[@lliixzllii1794]

@fnfxncyy I think they're both VERY close but I prefer the rg for some reason :)

[@vpnconsult]

Looks like a great fun machine for some nostalgia. Bluetooth + HDMI in combination with a few controlera makes it also a console for your TV.

[@adrian_orozco]

Careful friend. I started down the retro handheld rabbit hole about a year ago, now I have a few of these, a Retroid Pocket 3+, and started modding actual gameboy colors :)

[@TheEverydayDad]

Yeah it started out innocently enough, and now I've got 3 (plus more on the way).

[@mikepotapa5773]

I think I’m down that path. I have an RG35XX, a Miyoo Mini plus, and a Retroid pocket 2s being delivered today. I also have a Steam Deck and a Lenovo Legion Go. I’m probably good for awhile, but I’m sure I’ll order something new in the upcoming weeks…

[@tesa6199]

I got mine yesterday with the "grey" colour. OMG it's sooo good. Totally worth the money

[@chowandrew2458]

Verses the 35xx, the plus have retroachievement support, also Bluetooth controller support is why I’ve got the plus instead of the original.

[@hurricanewinzz]

Flashing Batocera will make your jaw drop if you like this

[@mirrfan8844]

its in beta, right?

[@dvornikovalexei]

Keeping your jaw dropped for 20 mins is a pain because that is how long it takes to boot

[@Stigmaru]

Why go Batocera when you can just load your rom collection ?

[@BBG-69420]

Batocera was to ugly and slow for me in now using MinUI on it and it is quick lite and simple

[@my._.name_]

@@dvornikovalexeii imagine the jaw dropping would happen after boot

[@jason_lyt]

I never thought I would get into retro gaming handheld, I used to just play them on PC and then got bored and never play them again. Then, I got the RG35XX a few weeks ago because of its beautiful retro design and its price, and now I have a Miyoo MIni Plus in the shelf, and 2 Anbernic devices on its way to my doorstep. FOMO is real LOL

[@jasonspringer1]

I own the H. Just received it3days ago. The double speaker is great.

[@pipedream690]

Recently bought RG35XX H (just a horizontal Plus) for £18. The quality of the device really surprised me.

[@fandabidozi3191]

Where’d you get one for £18?

[@Skett]

If you want it to be a backup for playing playstation games I'd say you definitely want the plus as it supports Bluetooth controllers. Get yourself an hdmi cable for it and you can play them on the tv

[@calebpeters6267]

What?!?!

[@bonepie]

I bought like, a dozen of these to my older cousins and none of them said anything bad about it that isn't, "I wished I knew this existed."

[@bryanfunk4151]

Do not use a fast charger as it will damage the battery.

[@AnotherBuddha]

I got the Rg35xx + Mine came with an updated OS, and also headphones.

[@tomlion0116]

If someone thinks about the 35XX or the Plus to buy I would say the real question is between the OG 35XX wich is way cheaper and the RG35XX-H because of it's joystic's. It can play DreamCast, N64 and PSP better because of the extra buttons. Those systems need joystic's! The OG is still great for the 8 and 16bit library of consoles.

[@Fahmmii]

Please review RG35XXH for next video 😍😍

[@TheEverydayDad]

I'll have to check that out!

[@yarinahernandez3268]

Love your videos!!! I just got myself the Miyoo Mini Plus. Did you considered it at any point before buying the RG35? I was debating between the two and ended up with the Miyoo.

[@MercyCEO]

You can fix the rattling by placing electrical tape on the back of the L1/L2/R1/R2 buttons if you open it up. The buttons still feel ine afterward, and it gets rid of that terrible rattling!

[@provis83]

Rattle tests are silly. Usually it’s the rumble motors or the plastic buttons you hear.

[@wongbryson]

Buy the H! I snagged one during Aliexpress sale too.

[@koken2372]

I ordered one a few days ago before knowing the RG40XX existed -_- is the RG35XX Plus comfortable and good enough? Feels kinda small to me (I haven't received it yet)

[@eidrienmiclat4379]

Great video as always! very informative. Can you please make a video comparison of the RG5xx plus and RG5XX H?

[@demonhighwayman9403]

Well dammit, a few days ago I ordered the black transparent version, I'm not ordering another one ! As for the sound, modding it should be easy if its as bad as you suggest.

[@fandabidozi3191]

I’ve got a RG35XX already and love it, and you’ve convinced me to play Breath Of Fire Three.

[@kruger2635]

What was disappointing to me is that no reviews have mentioned the consistent poping or crackling in the sound. On reddit they say all users experience it, would have liked to have known this before I made my purchase ...

[@kidrobot.]

ouch

[@spoolstring1853]

Bluetooth controller is a huge upgrade

[@JimIBobIJones]

I like it for the nostalgia factor and how small it is. But IMHO snapping a gamesir g8 on my phone is a much, much better experience than any dedicated retro emulator. The oled 120hz screen alone blows any dedicated device out of the water. The hall effect controller and snapdragon 8 g3 is just icing on the cake.

[@jeffsmith4095]

I just got mine from the TikTok shop for $25.99. Can’t wait to get mine.

[@TheEverydayDad]

That's awesome, hope you enjoy it when it comes in!

[@jeffsmith4095]

@@TheEverydayDad I also have one coming from Temu that’s called the X6 that looks like the RG35 but adds joystick controls as well. Excited to try that one as well.

[@BastarB]

I've heard that the D-pad is better on the PLUS version, whats your thoughts on that?

[@j0ery]

waiting for you to review the top tier devices

[@5part4]

What's the correct power brick needed. U said after a week of use. I cant recharge:(

[@nickentros]

The 35XX H is even better, has analog sticks and dual speakers and the horizontal form factor is more comfortable

[@TheEverydayDad]

I'm going to have to give that a shot, I love the looks of the regular RG35s, but my thumbs do not enjoying playing games on them as much.

[@EliasPfaiffer]

Wrong. Vertical is much comfortable!

[@yarg2015]

I have the horizontal version and it is much easier on the hands

[@TheEverydayDad]

I think I'm going to try that next, my thumbs can only take so much.

[@F4LZ0N]

Hey! Great video! Please do the comparison with the H version! :)

[@VideoGameXDomain]

What's the sd card size limit for this? Could I copy and paste everything with a new larger sd card or do I have to use a second sd card in the extra slot?

[@mgshowtime]

I believe Garlic is not yet available on this, but it’s still worth getting your own SD card your own ROMs. The SD card on any of these devices are awful and will fail eventually.

[@billford171]

you should really look into getting an Analogue Pocket (if you havent already). No, it cant play PS, Dreamcast, etc. With openFPGA can play up to NeoGeo, Genesis, SNES, etc. PLUS plays original GB, GBA, GB Color, GameGear, TurboGrafx, Lynx cards/carts... and it has very little lag. As close to original as you will get

[@TheEverydayDad]

Oh nice, I'll have to check that one out, thanks for the tip!

[@billford171]

@@TheEverydayDad I know they can be tough to get, sometimes sell out in seconds (depending on variant). AND they have a DOCK, so you can play with an 8bitdo controller on your tv. They are pricey, but truly amazing devices. (Analogue also makes FPGA Sega Genesis, SNES, TurboGrafx, and soon N64). FPGA is really amazing, emulating the hardware, so it feels as close to original as possible. I can never go back to old school emulation after using it.

[@JuanRamónSilva-Piano]

Analogue pocket is too expensive and overrated. Cannot even play Ps or Dreamcast. It’s a luxury console for those who already own a big collection of retro cartridges. You can get the game boy experience from the rg35xx and the plus avarient, which I love.

[@erichayes1849]

I have replaced the screen in my RG353VS. Not really bad at all. Battery replacement would be a breeze compared to that.

[@TheEverydayDad]

How easy or hard was that replacement? Are parts easily available? I'm legitimately curious about repairing one of these.

[@erichayes1849]

Really not bad. Did have to take it completely apart but lots of pictures and an IFixIt kit, you’re good. Screens were pretty readily available. I found my replacement on alliexpress. Batteries would probably be the same way.

[@erichayes1849]

Also, the retro gaming device hole is a deep one. Be prepared. Lol.

[@AGoodVibe]

I’ve got carpal tunnel syndrome, and it’s the only thing holding me back from buying one of these small handhelds. Anyone have perspectives on the comfort of the device?

[@Unicornstalk]

Hi AGoodVibe, you might enjoy the “H” version of this console that just came out! It’s wider and could be more comfortable. You could also research which of these units have Bluetooth abilities to allow you to use a larger controller.

[@AGoodVibe]

Thank you - I’ll check this out!

[@mrmovieelf]

I wanna try the analogue pocket Still have my original gameboy

[@TheEverydayDad]

Oh nice, I haven't heard of that one, I'll have to keep an eye out!

[@mrmovieelf]

It’s not an emulator, it actually takes old cartridges. Gameboy and such

Yes except Mario and Zelda but you can add those yourself

Btw it doesn't have 64gb of internal storage. The 64gb listed is the included SD card which should be thrown away as soon as possible

[@Laihoistheman]

ok really funny i got fed your video by the almighty algorithm, and I was like "wait wasnt he the camera guy?" cause i watched a LOT of your videos years ago when i was learning photography and buying my setup. The last two years I havent been using it all that much and have been obsessed, ever since i got my steam deck, with retro emulation. SO its interesting to see you follow suite a year later ot so. We seem to have similar tastes lol Also, welcome to the thunderdome, its a LOT to take in, you finding the retroarch menu and giving the universal take about it is very funny and extremely true. main reason i dont use muOS on my rg35xx H.

If you have the RG35XX, there's no actual reason to upgrade to the Plus! so dw

If I was about to buy, should I get the plus? $65 for 35xx and $85 for plus

[@sawwaa]

@@PeezyPurp if you are buying to just play some games and not trying to mess around with it much.. get the normal version fam. It's just the same thing and the plus has wifi, bluetooth and replaceable battery, which doesn't really mean much. Battery life on the RG35XX amazing! Get the normal version. If you have some extra money, you can always go for the Plus too!
