Same here Anbernic RG556 has excellent battery life better than Retroid Pocket 4 pro despite having same 5000mah capacity. And. The OLED screen is simply amazing and more beautiful the color reproduction and the vibrant and saturated colors makes me want to play anbernic rg556 more!

@nepaliprayasgurung2594 right. The rp4pro has all that power and honestly it's a waste without a 1080 screen to use it on. Yeah I can a few games better but they look like trash on comparison.

@@ExiledRetro I have Odin 2 and honestly the screen quality is excellent all it needs is OLED display to make the bring out the vibrant and saturated colors. Not saying the ips lcd is bad or anything because it's great screen but having oled would be cherry on top. All I need from Odin 3 is oled display powerful hardware capable of emulating Wii U and PS3, being able to play gamepass from Xbox and it would literally be one of the best handheld!

@nepaliprayasgurung2594 Love AYN devices. Use my Loki Max all the time. If you spend the money and for just straight emulation the Odin2 is king.

@@ExiledRetro I agree Odin 2 is king of 2024 emulation handheld. Nothing comes close at the price point. 2nd place I do feel like Anbernic RG556 is 2nd best handheld after Odin 2. Anbernic RG556 oled screen is so beautiful to look at, and honestly many reviewers said that PS2 needs tweaking to get work and you'd have to underclock the performance and you'd have to switch from vulkan to opengl. That's partially true some games do require underclocking majority of PS2 games run fine whether you play it on vulkan or opengl graphic. And DreamCast, GameCube and Wii games definitely run well enough at playable frame rate and quite good. So far I'm happy to call Anbernic RG556 second place after Odin 2, because performance wise this device definitely runs PS2, GameCube, Wii, DreamCast, Saturn and N64, exceptionally well quality wise, except PS2 games which will require tweaking to some degree but almost all other emulators run fantastic no slow down. And build quality is great and my hands doesn't get tired or fatigue even after long duration of play time. With anbernic rg556 battery life is amazing, and so is the oled screen therefore anbernic rg556 overall is definitely a second best handheld after Odin 2!

Thanks for sharing! :)

Are the sticks gonna be a problem for playing fortnite?

is it true that ps2 and gamecube runs worse on RG556? i am buying it mostly because of windwaker

​@@rhovenom04wind waker played on 1.5 upscale. I played it on 405m

I hate OLED. It flickers and burns in. It's a NoGo for me.

215$ is quite cheap. Here in indonesia, people selling it for 253$.

Hi bro sudah beli ka?

@@handcannon9814 yup dah sampai dah bro. almost 1week + ago sampai. hehehe so far memang puas hati

Bro. Rogue Galaxy pun aku minat gak. Okay tak performance?

@@fardulmuslim damn bro. susah gila nak jumpa orang yang tahu pasal game rogue galaxy hidden gem tu. so far try, dia ada performance issue. even on normal occasion tengah jalan-jalan pun ada stutter. bila tengah lawan, fps drop kawkaw. but lepas minor tweaking sikit sikit, sekarang dapat around 60-75fps at 1.5 resolution. dah cuba juga kat 1x reso, tapi performance pun lebih kurang je. now playable and memang best gila main portable

Could you drop a link to where we could get that? I just got a RP4 and would love to have a doc

Glad to hear! :)

Thought I'd pop in with an update. I've been playing along of Mega Man X dive and Minecraft on it. Since getting the new springs I've had no issues with the system at all.

Lmao getting a "less than device" rp4 beats it put period

@@ramrodbldm9876 I have the rp4pro and it's under my bed and collects dust... Anbernic all the way kiddie

@@ramrodbldm9876 hey you sponge i have the rp4p, but the crap is gathering dust under my bed! anbernic all the way , deal with it!!!

⁠​⁠​⁠@@ramrodbldm9876Pretty sure he said they are both good devices… but yeah cool man😂 let’s knock him for picking the cheaper one, with the better screen/ergos etc. ‘Lmao’ btw people like different things, but awesome that your mum got you the retroid for your Bday👍

@@ramrodbldm9876I would of got the rg556 to but since you wanna talk about the retroid pocket pro the Odin 2 is crushing that so it’s based on what people can afford and I’m all for that

You went on a binge, thats what happened 😂

Good choice, I'm trying so hard to like my RP4P but even with the grip is a pain to use the joystick...not sure who would use the joysticks without the grips. There are many regrets but too lazy to list them

@@WreckerALeX Just get the RG556 and forget you ever spent a penny on the RP4P. Trust me, the minute you hold it, play it and see its phenomenal AMOLED screen for yourself you'll be so glad you did. If only every mistake in life never cost me more than $200 lol.

That's a great deal from where do u buy?

160? Never...

😂I paid 140 after tax and shipping with a Gucci case screen protector charging fast brick and cord ​@@EliasPfaiffer

@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude yea used , on ebay with.... ;)

@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude where from?

Do you know about the community spreadsheet compatibility list?

That depends of emulator , no the device

You’ll love it, just make sure to replace the sd card with a legit one. Cause they go bad often

If pocketability is no.1 then get an RG nano.Its great!

@@valentin1808 Good point! But if between these two, the RP4P.

I never heard of broken triggers in the fixed (second batch and above) versions of the rp4 pro. Where did you got this info?

130 pfund? never... 266 dollar yea 220 euro yea but one hundred thirty pounds = NEVER EVER!! wake up...

😂 I got it for 140 on eBay

@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude yea...used , with disgusting leftovers on it :D

@@EliasPfaiffera brand new device, already used? 😂

Is there going to be JelOS for the RP4 pro.?

Unfortunately yes.

It is reverse for me, i love the position though, like original dualshock stick

How and where did you find it for $100? What a great deal!

EmulationStation. I have a video up on it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rLCpYLl9zNKUeX0.html

If you get the grip, it's like holding a xbox or ps controller, so the placement makes more sense.

😂 dude after the grip plus tax plus shipping plus a case plus a charger plus a screen protector plus the grips =pr4 pro $267.83

I play on my rp4 pro for hours and use the d pad all the time. It works fine. Even when I switch from the D-pad to the joy stick it is seamless like it was meant to work that way.

For me it's exactly the other way around. I would never ever buy a handheld with D-Pad at the bottom. It's almost unusable there. Analogstick at the bottom however is still very usable (on some controllers it's even perfect).

I also love amoled. Thanks for sharing! :)

My rp4 L2 broke off

LMAO double benchmark scores is irrelevant, check out actual performance...Example Switch emulation like Mario Wonder both can only run at x.5 resolution to get sub 50fps..My RP4P is just more stable 50fps so it can push x.75 resolution if you are ok with some 30-40s dips. In other words, no, you won't get double or even 50% more fps in reality... I've watched many videos comparing both and in reality, RP4P if you want to upscale a little bit more resolution but that is it...there is no double anything.

Yes, anbernic ships their systems with no name brand as cards which are known to fail eventually. I got mine with an SD card shipped and just bought a brand name as card and swapped the files from anbernics SD card to my new one.

😂 ever herd of a sweeter jacket or hoody the 556 fits perfectly in my hoody pocket and even jacket pocket easily no issue

@@CHICKENmcNUGGIESMydude 😂 But what if I don't wear a sweater or a jacket with a pocket? Must I? What do I do in the summer?😂 😂 😂 😂 Idiot.

I agree, I actually take my retroid with me everywhere i go. Fits in my fanny pack. RG556 is a couch device.

Simples, pelo que entendi o desempenho no Pocket é melhor, mas a tela é menor, já no 556 o desempenho não é tanto quanto no pocket mas roda e a tela é maior, aí fico em dúvida sobre tela mesmo kk

No and its a pain to set them up, I have it and i can't even use it because of that.

Thank you!

RP4 PRo for 100% PS2 games ❤

its the resolution apple used when introduced the iphone 6s Retina display

Agree on that!

@@wavyadyaan_boss6525 EmulationStation (it’s a frontend). I have a video up on how to set it up for Android.

It’s an issue if you need a dongle ;)

@@Techcravers buying a $10 dongle is no more of an issue as buying a $15 grip case is for the retroid

No

Same

I had the RP3+ with official grip but the annoyance and lose of portability wasn’t worth it for me. Plus the screen size is too small for what it can play, and adding a grip will not solve that. The RG556 is on another league on that regard, with pure zero-concession on comfort.

Not to mention, the RP4 is much smaller. Almost pocketable.

The main selling point for rp4+ is the size. The market for smaller handheld devices always get ignore.

@@MegaVSable Sure, but for such size I don't really care about PS2/Gamecube on it, screen is too small, personally I would stick to a RG35xxh. Plus the face buttons were microscopic, glad they made them a bit bigger for the RP4.

i mean... you can download for free if you want 😂

The RP4 Pro is better for PS2 and GC (performance wise)

@@Techcravers omg. finally, a response! thank you! follow up question, when you say better? how? like less stutter? The rg556 has oled right? means its much prettier to look at? So clarify pls

@@rhovenom04 All the details are covered in the video. You'll find that what I mean by 'better' is clearly demonstrated in the footage. With the RP4 Pro, achieving full speed at higher resolutions requires less adjustment compared to the RG556. To attain satisfactory speed in PS2/GC games on the RG556, some emulator settings tweaking is necessary, whereas it's notably easier to achieve smooth performance on the RP4 Pro. However, as also highlighted in the video, the RG556 boasts superior screen quality and ergonomic design.

⁠​⁠@@Techcraverswell.. resolution wise.. correct me if Im wrong but the rp4pro max res. Is 720P? And the rg556 max res is 1080P right? So hoe much different is that resolution thing where you say the rg4pro can play it better on higher resolution, you mean the 720P is smoother on the rp4pro playing ps2 against 720P playing ps2 on the rg556?

Thanks for sharing! :)

You mean the 556 is better for human hands and the rp4 is better for brick squared robot hands

​@chickenmcnugget2537 duhh derpity derp uh-yuck. 🤡

Yes the Odin 2 is amazing!

I got the base my girl got the max ... Its really no difference but storage . Ram really didn't matter 😂

which device are you referring to?

RG556 is more of a couch device, I like Retroid because of portability, fits in my fanny pack and I actually take it with me everywhere I go. BTW I only have the RP3+, still deciding if i want to upgrade to RP4P

👀

While I sort of agree, it's still nice to know that there is a handheld for everybody!

o well if you have an extra 100$ to buy it good for you but why wouldn't i just buy a steam deck then

to expensive..

Too big and expensive. Don't want it.

It's same price?

@@suhtangwong same price? Wake up...

Hey, thanks for commenting! I'm not sure exactly what kind of disability you have, but if comfortable grips are important to you, the RG556 from Anbernic is definitely a winner. It will play most of your PS2 and Gamecube games relatively smoothly, while also having a good grip, a large screen, and well-designed controls. Most other handhelds I've reviewed on my channel are smaller and have less comfortable controls. Alternatively, I can recommend the Odin 2 if you want to future-proof with even better (currently superior) performance. However, it will be more expensive.
