The size was the main reason for me to order the device. The original GameBoy is smaller and that was for children's hands. But all other vertical emulator handhelds are smaller than the original. And very often very very tiny. Unplayably tiny. I never understood that. Now there is finally a device for adults in the right size for adult hands. Still 2-3 days to wait, I'm looking forward. :) Thank you for the test.

How do you like it so far?
@DeziByte10 ай бұрын
@@LetsplayAori I am satisfied so far. I already had the Anbernic 351V and a RES2k, but they were both too small for me. Now it's much better, not perfect, but pretty good. Performance is enough, the system runs smoothly, if anything PS2 games might be a bit jerky. I haven't needed the fan yet, it's always off. The speakers could be a bit better, most smartphones sound better. The touchscreen is unfortunately not the best, inputs are not always accepted and sometimes you need some pressure. I also have the case and it fits perfectly. I will keep the device this time. :) I hope I could help you. PS: On the memory card with the games was not a single Mario game on it, strange. But there is everything on the net.
@LetsplayAori10 ай бұрын
@@DeziByte I see thanks, yeah that with mario games is a weird thing which anbernic does. It's like they think that reduce their risk of getting busted for sharing copyrighted material or something like that pretty weird. If I will get it it would be mainly for 2d games which are dpad focused so not much n64 or later.

Yeah I've been thinking about getting this device for my 4:3 retro needs, it just seems like it fits like a glove. Also makes it easier so I can focus on a more high-end gaming experience on a larger x86 device (not a fan of the rog ally d-pad for example, but who cares if I play 2d platformers on here). Just wish it would do Saturn, PS2 and GC a slight bit more comfortably, hopefully they don't abandon this form factor in the future with a more powerful soc, but at this price point I can forgive it.

The sticks bug me as I own a RG351P & MP (just sold) & V as well as a RG353V - I’m a fan of the vertical orientation. But none of the sticks are much good on those devices so I’m a tad disappointed that they’re not great on this one either as I need - as well as to play heavier games to emulate - my regular fix of Robotron. And if these are no good then this device is sadly not for me.

Well I like where Abernic is going, all they really need to do is have a model with a recent snapdragon cpu and I'd buy it. I'm going to wait until they release something that runs ps2 games as good as my galaxy s20 fe. If the chip I had in my galaxy had active cooling like this it would run anything you threw at it.

I want this one! I have been looking and looking at handhelds... And yeah, some of the other ones are nice... But this one has almost everything I'm looking for ... Wish it was a little stronger... But I love the vertical form factor.. 4 inch screen... Touch screen ..and it does have some power. The others are 3.5 screens (unless horizontal, which I don't want) not touch screen, and are less powerful. I'm.a noob at emulation.... And I am worried I buy this ... And "brick" it lol I don't know what that means but I know it's bad... I don't know how to copy roms , get roms , fix roms, I don't even have a PC... So I am nervous about spending $170 (Amazon) ... Thinking about buying one of the $50 ones ... But man, this is the one I want .. I hope anbernic makes another version in the future. Same form factor .. just. Little stronger be nice to get PS3 switch and og xbox

If my concern was abut where I would put this in a bag then I would have to question my bag choice as this is still a small device. As far as having a crevice to make appliance of the screen protector is concerned, if a screen protector is considered a realistic requirement, then apply it at the factory, where it can be done correctly. But whilst companies like Anbernic offer pricing to include obviously Pirated games, they won't get any of my money.

The upcoming GameForce Alpha is supposed to have a RK3588S for like $170, RK3588S is what the Orange Pi 5 uses. It runs NGC and PS2 at about the same level a Snapdragon 855 phone would, so most games would run at x2 or x1.5 resolution, PSP games at x4, Dreamcast at 1440P...
