This is the first RG35XX Plus video I've seen that actually tries to be useful and do things different from the other creators. Most of them just go like: "You can play Yoshi's Island, Mario 64 and Crazy Taxi". And that's it, no useful info whatsoever. Great work!

I've got to say the sound in this video is incredible. I was watching on my phone in the car with a very good stereo, when listening to the emulation device I thought the sound was coming from my phone for a minute. Before I realized that the sound had more mids than my phone can reproduce. I feel confident I have a good idea how the device sounds in the room. Good Job!!!

If you want to save the video settings: push menu button > quick menu > overrides > save content directory overrides

Thanks for the quick guide on your shader settings. I appreciate it.

When youtube titles are actually correct. The bit about the curved screen alone really good to know. Thanks a lot, subscribed.

Man, this channel is what every gamer needs to know. The information you provide is what really matters and what makes the difference when purchasing. Other channels just show the product and praise it, they don't pay attention to the details like you do. Congratulations! And keep going, we need your work!

This review is indeed much more useful tan others from youtubers obviouly focusing on quick YT views rather than informative content. Good and serious work ! And it doesn't prevent from buying the device.

My unit screen is not curved. However my unit came with broken headphone jack. You win some, you lose some. that’s the RG35XX Plus way.

Thank you so much for showing how to change the BT controllers to 1P. It’s super annoying that it connects to Second Player as default.

Well!!! Im impressed!! You are not a liar, you really says something that all other youtuber did not tell to us and it is really a big help specially the shader setting.. it is exactly what im looking for!!! Thanks a lot. +1 sub.

2:30 Really depends on the system you get. I actually only have bubbles at the bottom-right and a slight bit on the bottom left that I don't notice while playing with the screen on. This was after I removed the Anbernic-provided screen protector and after my first attempt where I removed it and re-applied it (still had its adhesive, thankfully) to get rid of a single annoying bubble I let get in towards the center. But yeah, if you can't handle that you can always just not use the screen protector. They're great for extra protection, but you really don't want to drop this system to begin with. It *will* ruin your screen regardless, and I don't see many scenarios where the screen would get damaged otherwise, unless you're being careless. I'm keeping mine on because I'm not bothered by its current state and I want to prevent any potential scratches, but it's mostly just my obsessive need to keep the original screen as clean and scratch-free as possible because that's how I am. Should be noted that I did Adjust the position of my screen protector lower than it was before because that meant no real bubbles on top at the edges, but even in that case, there is no way I would have had nearly as bad as what you have in the video, so it must just be a quirk of some of the screens, where they're a bit more round. Not unheard of in the 3rd-party handheld sphere where quality varies from device to device, even in the same exact model.

I’m so sick of the tiny screen I eventually just use my 8” tablet with a backbone controller. And that’s it for me. I don’t look at anything else to play retro and so much more with.

So here's an issue with the RetroArch filters on this device (they're CPU-driven and thus different from GPU shaders): If you change the settings too many times, RetroArch will be abruptly shut down. Didn't know what was the issue until I turned on RAM usage monitor in the "notification visibility" menu. Apparently changing this eats up RAM. Turning off bilinear CPU filter also eats up RAM. If all 900MB available RAM is taken up, RetroArch quits.

Man, that game's soundtrack gave me anxiety 😂

That's a really good review with a lot of settings and small things. And I'm shocked how different this linux from Anbernic's RG Arc linux.

appreciate! Aldo can you make a video for shader for all the other consoles?

there is no need to edit any files, just save the scaling options in ra.

Good review! Have you tried any custom os with this?

respect to this guy, please

Do the Dreamcast games run in 240P or 480p. Some of these lower end consoles try to cheat and will make the Dreamcast games run in 240P so they run better, but it looks so blurry. Also, after you turn the game on and the image is stretched, wouldn’t you be able to just put it on integer scale and then save the configuration inside of retroarch so that it no longer starts with a stretched screen? Man your videos are really good on this. I think you should do more on these handheld emulators.

Will you do a review on miyoo mini plus? Would like to hear your insight on this console

VK, quick question: Can you connect 2 bluetooth contrrollers when playing on the TV and set them as Player 1 and 2? My 35XX Plus is on its way from China and I dont know if should buy one or two 8bitdo bt controllers.

I bought the XX and returned it for the plus thinking it would have Donkey Kong Country but it does not. Still a very solid device

The rg353p is still my favorite handheld. It offers a lot for the price. And what makes the biggest difference is Arkos which is really near perfect. If a port of Arkos appears one day one the rg35xx / rg35xx+, then I think we may have a fantastic little handheld. In the meantime, Koriki can be used.

I use original stock os. Not updated I have I problem when I shut down on setting it's drain the battery. But when I click off button on the side it's OK. No problem

great video, way more specific than other reviews i've seen. can you check if the lcd-grid shaders on retroarch work at a stable speed? they're kinda heavy to run in a lot of devices

Wow. That was an in-depth review. 🇬🇧 subbed

Thanks. This video helped me a lot! (second part of the "Screen mirroring")

What really baffles me in terms of easy button mapping is still RetroArch itself. It seems that not custom/stock firmware devs could ever get to an agreement with button mappings on the RetroArch menu and button combos NEVER got customizable - if the devs decided this button combo is how you open a menu and compiled a button config, that's it, you're stuck with it. The RG353p didn't need to deal with this because most configurations are in the EmulationStation menus, and this frontend valiantly attempted to make menu navigation as foolproof as possible.

I wonder if they use different screens because the screen protector sits flat on my 35xx Plus.

I've got mine a month ago and absolutely love it!, the only issue is that I started playing around with the RA settings and I fucked it up (I only play with the game rooms :(() and don't know what to do, can anyone help me install RA again?

Till this day i did not manage to get WiFi running. No update till december made a difference.

Will you do a review on the EasySMX X10? I would like to see your review on this controller as your reviews are detailed and well presented

Great video my friend. Concise and to the point. Keep up the grwst work. Subbed and 👍🏽

Thanks! By the way, have you ever compared with the Miyoo Mini Plus screen? The feeling that the 35th is completely faded and cloudy. No?

I already have the RG35XX H but I want to get this one too. Mainly for aesthetics.

The screen is not curve anymore I guess. I just got one and the screen is perfectly flat

is that the 12/23/23 (i think it was 23rd) -- firmware you have loaded in, if not, please add a link to the 2024 variant of the firmware, great video, thanks! Cheers

my rg35xx plus has good tempered glass no bubbles , yours are not good

9:45 That's really more RetroArch problem than firmware problem. Sure you can try to navigate to a setting where this autosaves but the config and overrides will ONLY be saved the drive if it's actually closed from the menu

This thing is a mess. I REALLY appreciate the honest review. I feel like everyone else is just trying to sell it. When Garlic is set up on it I'll check it out. Ive got a 353m that im completely satisfied with. Really good review though. This is definitely your thing.

Because of the CFW I say the original 35xx is better. I have both and until they fix the CFw on the plus, I use my original substantially more than my plus.

Man, amazing video. You gained a sub. I have applied the changes you recommended to the shaders and woah what a difference. Can you please review in the same perfect way the Trimui Smart Pro by any chance?? I own both and I love the Trimui Smart Pro so far. I just use the rg35xx plus plugged to the TV rn.

Just use a smaller screenprotector? Mine doesnt bubble

What folder does the game put .sav files in? I want to play Kid Dracula and it needs a save file. So i got the .sav but don't know what folder to put it in.

6:00 and you have no custom settings also 🤓

Just set a custom menue cobo for the controller?

How can one use game link cable on this device? Bluetooth?

So still no updates to firmware that fixes those problems?

The video shader on wario land 2 was beautiful

Hi, Nice video! I've heard the coleco was in the rg35xx plus, but it doesn't appear anywhere! Cou'd you help me to activate it?

Bro how the hell did the rg nano not get the con of only 2 triggers

strange. i did not have any issues with my screen protector.

Nice review

So I got my rg35xx yesterday and loaded some of my ROM Rips I got from my cartridges from my N64 games and they load but none of the controls work is there some way to change them ??

It's just you who can't correctly stick a screen protector. I don't have any bubbles :)

the 3.5 screen is really too small for 16 bit games and above for me.

You applied the screen protector wrong, nota any bubble on mine

I can't find shaders option in my menu.. Why?

Sometimes a quick shitdown is needed.

I cannot find any shader options in the menu 😢

Good content👍🏻, not the other crap.

Thank you. Subbed

God damn just enable integer scaling, why fiddle with shaders SNES games are not really 4:3 and this is the reason why they look distorted on this display

Which controller is best one?

Man you do not no how to put a screen protector on lol mines mint

8:31 ;)

Just take off the screen protector

Pena que aqui no Brasil ficou complicado comprar portáteis acima de 50 dólares... Onde o 35xx original se encaixa.

I got my screen protector on perfectly sad to see yours look like crap!

Can you cast/stream it to a TV? (Why would one want to do that…hahaha)

Vc deletou seu canal em português maninho?

They broke and is no sd problem, thats what nobody told you

dude , the software is crap, check out the scrolling on for example the PC ENGINE game son son 2 , it is jerky as hell, not smooth, even in RA. there is something wrong with the software !!!

Слишком жесткая крестовина и кнопки. В результате играть дискомфортно. Китайцы вечно накосячат.
