RGB10 Max 3 Review: Awesome Value Handheld

Рет қаралды 153,147

Күн бұрын

The new PowKiddy RGB10 Max 3 is an incremental update over previous handhelds like the X55, but at its introductory $70 price point it's an excellent value. Let's take a deep-dive look at the device, its strengths, and some things that could have been done better.

For Moonlight, I used a TP Link AC600 usb wifi card and this worked extremely well. I have been streaming PC and Gamcube, Wii, switch, PS2, etc games at 720p to the RG10 Max 3, as a handheld, and also connecting to my TV and streaming in 1080p (bluetooth gamepad). It is completely smooth, with no stuttering or lag that I can detect. Definitely does not work much above 1080p. I tried 1440p, and it would be fine some of the time, but with signifcant stuttering, several times a minute. I use this for streaming at least half of the time, and I am completely happy with it in this use case

You can drill a small 3/16" hole in the plastic trigger directly over the screw head, to then use a Phillps screw driver to access the final 2 screws to remove the board without potentially damaging the triggers. I purchased the x55 Green color and it's been a really good device for the price 75 with carrying case and only the 16GB OS TF card. Been using the latest version of RockNix OS 20240702 and it's been much improved over the previous version, but there's still small software quirks but I can live with them, and am enjoying playing retro games, I've been playing them on a larger screen via HDMI, it's been really enjoyable.

Good review , Russ! It is really a shame that PowKiddy devices still have the dpad false diagonals issues. It is even more unfortunate that this one is even more difficult to mod. Even if the device is $70, I still would not want to risk damaging it. It seems like a pretty good device all around (especially for the price). For me, though, I'm very picky about dpads and preventing false inputs, so even if I was going to pick up a new retro handheld, I would still probably pass on this one.

Trying to decide between this and the RG-Arc, most of the games I would play would only use the D-pad but the wider screen for GBA and DS could be nice. I’m still leaning Arc because when it comes to tech I’ve learned to figure out what I want out of my device and then find the least expensive way to do it well or you’ll get distracted by other bells and whistles while your shopping. And for me I think the Arc fits that bill.

Great review as usual! I am trying to understand what handheld to buy in this price-SOC category that I think suits the kind of games I would like to play. To what I understand this one has the same internal hardware as the rgb30 and x55, and I can't decide... A bigger screen than the rgb30 sounds nice but I'd like to stay relatively compact hence this one seems the good one, however... As I seem to understand the only difference is the ram quantity, correct? Is the double ram quantity on the x55 making significant difference, and in this case for which systems exactly? I mean, I guess there will be no noticeable difference for SNES, for instance, but on higher end systems what difference does this make?

@SicketMog 5 ай бұрын

At this point, watching these comparisons, I want all of the higher end (at least price-wise) handhelds to have switchable controls on the left hand side (like joycons). One left hand "joycon" for D-pad on top and one for D-pad on the bottom. That will solve a lot of the ergonomics.

Hey Russ, do you think you could add the specific core being used to the top left text when doing the emulation showcase? It would greatly help with performance comparisons since we can see it playing a game just fine, but the core might be innaccurate so when we get the device the experience might not be as expected. To be more specific, it would be nice to know if the core being used is mgba/gpsp/vba, or in playstation 1's case, it would be nice to know if it runs in duckstation/swanstation or if it is pcsx rearmed only, etc.

@RetroGameCorps 5 ай бұрын

Hi, thanks for the request, I’ve made a recent change where I will only show a specific core if I deviate from the default emulator in the OS. So with this video I used the default emulator option in JELOS every time, they have it pretty finely tweaked. N64 can require some tweaking but the default one worked okay for my demonstration in this video. But I can keep that in mind for future videos!

Isn't 1gb of ram big step back from x55 which has 2, along with going back to 2,4ghz wifi? The form factor and size is perfect.

I just ordered an X55 yesterday, and when I saw this review in the feed, I panicked a bit. Seeing the comparison here, I was quite relieved. I only paid 80 for the X55, and I still think I like it better than this one.

The X55 is much better than the Max3s. Glad I purchased the X55.

Hi! Waiting my rgb10 max 3 in 2-3 days now, and... Jelos has been taken down, at least for powkiddy and rk3566 devices in general, grat timing! You mention in the video that this device benefits from many custom FWs, i guess basis the fact that the chioset and general HW architecture is very common, however, this is a new device, what custom FW works with it that you know of? Thanks!!
