I Bought a FAULTY Anbernic RG NANO | Can I FIX It?
Рет қаралды 106,676
10 ай бұрынThis RG Nano powers off after 5 (or 6) seconds and doesn't charge. Will it be a faulty battery or the USB-C charging port?
Let's find out!
Hope you enjoy!
Steve
PS. I'm not an expert in repairs at all. I do this for fun, and it may not be the best or safest way to go about repairing broken stuff. I'm pretty good at melting plastic though. Please don't copy me - I'm an idiot.

At 13:02, you have connected the screen while the battery was connected and probably the device had booted already. The screen might have skipped any initialization commands from the chipset during boot, so the screen was appearing not to turn on. However, the second time you seated the screen you did disconnect the battery first and then connected the screen which returned things normal.

Except for the charge ports, they may not be extremely well built. Sure, it is possible that the previous owner tried to cram an entire Muppet into their pocket along with the handheld, and the Muppet tried to f**k the charging port, but if your USB C port breaks in 4 months, you're doing something wrong, or it's not an extremely well built handheld. Besides the buttons, the charging port should be the beefiest part of a handheld and it shouldn't break easily. There isn't even the possible excuse of plugging it in upside down.
@infin1ty850 10 ай бұрын
@@Boogie_the_cat Have you ever gotten your hands on an Anbernic aluminum, Miyoo, or Powkiddy handheld? That's only naming a few and they are all excellent. They are all extremely well built. I have no idea where you are getting the idea that the charging port is the only thing that is well built. Do you also think the same about the Steam Deck, Asus Ally, and new Odin? You should really do some research before spouting off incorrect information.

@medes5597 10 ай бұрын
That is standardisation. When that happens, you need various versions of the standard for different applications. If it wasn't standardised, then every variation that you see there would have a different connector. The fact there are so many usb c pin variations is actually what we want. The only "non standard" USB-C thats actually incompatible with the others is the PS5 controller. Otherwise you could technically bodge any of them in should you desire.

And I think it comes down to a choice between "StezStix Fix?" or - and this is my personal preference - " The Channel for the Laid-back Investigation of Tiny Objects and their Repair for Interested Spectators". Erm, one drawback with that - the abbreviation is C.L.I.T.O.R.I.S.
