I killed a RG35XX and RG35XX+ and both were destroyed. The second time was a mistake, I was in a hurry and wanted to charge it. I took the wrong charger (Samsung Fastcharge) and instantly killed.
@wizzel22 The issue is that one fast charger may work, but not all, and people do not know which are safe to use. As there are alot of people who have used a fast charger and damaged thier devices.
@@N0FPVthere are multiple types of fast charging. I would assume PD would be safe, but non-PD ones could potentially overload the circuits. I use a PD charger myself, and have never had an issue with my RG35XX or RG35XX plus.
Watching this while waiting on my device... Really useful, as I probably would have killed the device with a fast charger if I hadn't seen this. Will be sure to flash a new card and look at your other guides!
Pokemon is a dream on these, especially with a built-in cheat engine, you can change color palettes, you can move saves across games. You can fast forward. I think you should check out my pokemon video. I think youll enjoy it.
@@JaviPlayRetro i have seen that video and it's very helpful. Ive been playing crystal over the past few days and I really enjoy it! I wish I had a way to setup a new SD card like you suggest but I'm not computer savvy and I don't have easy access to one even if I was.
@@JaviPlayRetro with my big hands and not great eyesight I think a horizontal handheld with a bigger screen is in my near future. Do you have recommendations on one that's preloaded like the 35xx + and still has retroarch? I wish I had a way to have one setup for me but unfortunately I don't. Basically I want something already setup and ready to go for pokemon games while still having the built in cheat function
Thank you for your videos on this device. I absolutely love mine and it came dead on arrival, but with your videos I was able to flash a new micro sd card and use dual sd card method.
A comment on fast charging: I charged my 35XX Plus on arrival with a 5V/3A charger, from 70% to full. Didn't destroy my device, but the charge diagnostics showed my voltage well over 4.1V. Grabbed an old Apple brick I had laying in a drawer at my business, and voltage is now reading a much less pulse-pounding 3.81V. Definitely seems to be something to this
Actually, the very 1st thing you should do. Is get a 64gb or higher sd card and copy everything over from the jank 64gb sd card that comes with the handheld. While looking through reviews before I bought mine. I noticed people talking about everything working great until their SD card failed a day or 2 later. And yeah the card that comes with it, looks like the very bottom of the barrel of cheap SD cards. Which is understandable. Considering the price of the entire unit. Just treat the stock SD card as a 1 time use type thing and just backup the info that's on it.
Got mine just to play Pokémon Ron hacks but then remembered the countless games from my childhood that were literally just preloaded! The TMNY beat ‘em up was such a huge part of my playtime growing up I popped off hard seeing it was already on the console
Ive been looking into tutorials for these before i dove in and got one. Your videos definitely explain everything a beginner neeqs to know to get started. I cant wait to play the old zelda games, pokemon, and bomberman
I appreciate the tip about charging. Unfortunately people tend to only report problems so it seem worse than it is. There's always a failure rate. Until someone post what that rate is there's no way to know if this is actually know how bad it is. From what I can tell as long as you charge it with the correct voltage and amperage (5v 1.5A) charger things seem to be within the average failure rate of most electronic devices.
Regarding the charger, does anyone knows if using an Anker 737 GaNPrime is safe? It's a high quality, high power charger, with safety features, so if the device cannot tell what power to use, the charger should switch to default, low power USB charging, right?
Sorry for blowing up your comments section 😂 last thing I have to add is that the included screen protector is fine. Use wet wipe first to remove oils, dry wipe second to remove dust, then check under intense light for any dust specks remaining and gently catch/sweep them with the dry wipe. Keep the dry wipe! Then peel the backing off the protector and carefully *drop it* smack in the center of your screen. I used the fingers grasping the sides of the screen protector to help align it with the device, and dropped it from less than a centimeter above the screen. It should kinda float, allowing you to nudge it for any fine adjustments. Then, *press the center* and let the film do its thing. Grab a credit card, then *using the dry wipe as a buffer* , carefully but firmly work any bubbles (there should be minimal if done this way) out the sides. My screen protector is completely flush and transparent. Could've just gotten lucky with the cut of it though 🤷
Your review is fantastic my friend, I'm finishing my review here in Brazil too and the tip about charging and cards as you mentioned are essential to maintain the health of our portable console. Congratulations!
14:13 WTF?! The baby on the background scared the shit out of me! The background noises with the surround sound on headphones makes the sounds come from outside and back of my room! Jeeez!
I used the high-power charger 65w regularly on 35xx and 35xxPlus. My 35xx works fine but the battery dies in sleep mode around 3 hours. On the plus, it keeps rebooting again and again. Bad! Now I only use a normal charger
Exactly, latest firmware breaks a few things. Screen refresh rate, for instance. In retroarch - Settings - Video - Output, retroarch reports a screen refresh rate of 64.926 Hz. It should say 59.941 Hz.
13:33 Ok, so I am getting the RGXX35 plus tomorrow. I have played the previous version and have had ZERO luck adding PS! games. I download the, add them, and they don't show up. they are either .bin or .7z files. can ANYONE send me a message on what I am doing wrong?? please? I have looked all over and I think I just don't understand. Something just isn't clicking for me the grasp how to do it properly.
Regarding the fast charging, i guess it depends on the charger itself. The charger should recognise the device is not compatible with fast charging and default to the lowest output. But not all do that.
Tip: Update it with latest firmware 1208 firmware it works a lot better (PSP / Dreamcast) ... how can you say keep it with the first one... 1108 is really not the best version... 1208 is way better and was also a lot more stable on my device and you can use the Dpad as a stick now with some games on PSP and DC. I love this Anbernic Device it's one of my favorites but please UPDATE it with 1208 it's really better in a lot of ways! You also have SEGA Mega CD and PC ENGINE CD (I added a lot of those games)
I dont like the way boxart is treated in 1208. Also, I've read a lot of reports from people having different issues with this firmware. Things like PSP emulation getting worst to battery being drained while off and stuff like that. You can do what you want. Im okay 1108 personally. I personally dont play those cd based systems like sega cd. And you can do the psp analog to dpad thing on 1108 pretty easily.
Hi all, I just bought my console and was wondering if it matters how I charge it the first time. Should I fully charge it first before powering up the console or can I play with it a bit 5-10% and then let it charge?
Anbernic says it's support C to C charging, but that doesn't mean everything charger is safe. Please be careful. These are batteries that can explode. It's probably fine. Just dont do it again. For now, just charge from your pc or laptop with the a regular usb a to usb c cable. Or use an old charger thats rated 5V/1A.
Can it use sticks on a bluetooth controller? It would be nice for some newer games (if they run!?) Anyway, love the video, I will be coming back for more!! Oh almost forgot, I have a bluetooth controller that was used with a Switch.... do you think it will work? Guess I will find out soon, my device is arriving today!
I got mine today and I wanted to play Mortal Kombat in the PS1 and I got an error saying CD ERROR!! lol and how would you play Duck Hunt in this thing!! I just beat CONTRA in the NES GAMES, and non of the Mario Brothers games are here!!
Is there a specific Bluetooth controller you would recommend or is any going to operate just fine? This video was a massive MASSIVE help so thank you so much man (also congratulations on 16k!!!)
I highly recommend and controller by 8bitdo they have alot of excellent products. www.amazon.com/8Bitdo-Sn30-Pro-Bluetooth-Gamepad-Classic/dp/B07GKLG3ZP/ref=sr_1_8?crid=2QSM30YEZO14T&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.lmOijk2pFFM0y4nSqqKDSridtuAQen50bcC5GAjNbrApq1jWg9JrdmlORWUku89ulGZBrkyu7eYB6v13CDITWz0-3nqhkWe1gmrG1ViG8gDcBEr2-qo4hMR3Be00Cy6kB-7J_cgy9TXyz_3N2lo-Fw.o1WamDkEoXFpgFQCNbApaimrC1NbkwaYal4_iDvSOU4&dib_tag=se&keywords=8bitdo&qid=1705162839&sprefix=8bit%2Caps%2C94&sr=8-8 This is a good one you can check out. There's also the pro 2 that has hand grips if you prefer something a little comfier but its more expensive.
Link to wall charger needs to be updated.... the one you linked is no longer available. I do have an old iPhone charger, I guess I will use that one. I would like to find a compatible charger that had multiple ports, so I could charge more than 1 device at a time. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks!
I have a few questions: If i have 2 Bluetooth controllers can 2 people play a fighting game together? Also, Amazon has an SD card that's just as good, would that be fine?
You say do not change to much setting on Retro arch, do you mean on the menu accesible thought the seetings icon on the main screen or also the emulator settings when a game is on?,, cause there are setting y may want to change , control mapping for instance.. the n64 controls don t work otherwise, i think.., and the psp analog too.
So I finally got my 8bitDO Pro to work without lag (it was a setting on my LG TV) but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to send audio out to the TV. Video is just fine, but audio is a no go.
Any specific screen protector brands you can recommend? I hear others bought new ones online and they still didn't fit and had bubbles around the edges because the screen is a bit curved.
Just got an rg35xx... Complete noob .. Harry Potter chamber of secrets keeps freezing during intro. Read on Reddit, need to overclock. But watching this super helpful video (seriously would've killed my device), I noticed I don't have half those settings. Barely any customization settings and def no retroarch. Now I'm just confused
can I ask do you think the D pad is good? i cant stand a bad d pad i wanted to ask someone who would give an honest answer its okay if its not i just want to know before i buy one
Is there a way to play the Pokémon Heart Gold version on this or the plus? I tried and it doesn’t let me click the bottom screen at the start of launch
I'm having trouble adding games. The roms I found online don't have the same file extensions as the default roms. I could just change the file extension, but I doubt that will work.
i just bought it, its my first time with this console! would u recommend changing the firmware to a new CFW? which one u think its the best second, I bought a new micro sd card, should I buy another one? how many do I need third, do u have any safe page to download roms? i wanna play gba games and lastly, iv been trying some games and many of thems are lagged or low fps... like sega genesis .. is a way to play them better and last question, how do u charge the console? whats the best way to charge it? any USB C cable?? thanks for answering all, cheers I suscribed
I want to ask if I used a quick charger from Samsung at 5V - 2.0A just once, does this already mean that I have worsened the performance of the console battery?
Hey, can someone answer my question?: i have two chargers, one is 5.0V- 1.2A, the other is 5.0V-2.0A, are they both good or only the first one?, or nono of them?.., i ask because i am not sure i understand the 1.5A part which Ambernic recommends and if those i have are much higher or lower. Also, this are just output measurements, what about input measurements ,they don t matter?.., i have a 35A on input whit one of the chargers.
i have been having audio issues 24/7 since getting this device. nonstop humming as well as screetching noise, and can only be drowned out (not fixed) with super high volume. have tried with/without wifi/bluetooth on , restarting , resetting , etc. could i have possibly gotten a bad unit ? literally it does not stop unless device is powered off.
They really need to work on Bluetooth audio, my headphones jack has a short and their solution is for me to ship back my device(which could be 8 days or more), they receive the device, exchange for another one(which could be 8 days or more). All of this during the holiday times, it could be a month before I get the replacement while being empty handed. I'm trying to see if I can fix Bluetooth audio myself, maybe script it
Im sorry to hear that. My device isn't perfect either. Mine has some light bleed along the screen edges where the screen is not glued all the way. It's not noticeable in the day, but it's annoying at night. I could return it as I bought it from Amazon, but it's not really that serious to me. I plan to fix it, myself too. Good luck with yours, though. I hope you find an easy fix! Ill let you know if Anbernic fixes bluetooth audio in the next update.
With my new rg35xx+ I went in to menu > controls> within psp game and was mapping DPAD up and down but now the up and down doesn't work at all in any psp game. Cant navigate menu to change it back. Any help?
Then why are they still build a type c if the device are so weak in the fast charger? Doesn't makes sense 😢 all type c ass device has a capability to charge fast whatever adapter you use.. that's so confusing, i have a cheap type c cable and suck into my FC adapter and my phone charge slow, so i change to original type c and suck to the same adapter and it charge fast.. So the adapter is not the issue, USE THE PROVIDED type c instead
Any idea how I can fix mine? Somehow NONE of the buttons work when i play games. They only work when im navigating to the game i want to play. Additionally all the in game menus are in chinese??
As of right now the only function you have with wifi is retro achievements, you can update retroarch, netplay, and moonlight streaming. However whenever CFW comes along youll get features like over the air updates and scraping boxart
Will any micro sd card work for it? There’s a SAMSUNG - MEMORIES EVO PLUS 128Gb sd card on Amazon at moment for £11. Just wondering if that will be fine?
I am waiting on this handheld being delivered to my house, I am confused though as people online are talking about charging issues, specifically with adapters and cables. The website states a USB C-C cable but some are reporting the ned for a USB A-C cable which means I am unsure what cable and adapter to purchase. Someone please reply and help me lol
Okay use a usb C to usb A cable and use a charging brick that is 5V that is 1.5A or higher and you will be fine. Don't use c to c. Don't use fast chargers.
Thanks bro, purchased a Sony Adapter Plug today with these specifications. My follow up question is about USB Cables. You recommend A-C but I am seeing cables on amazon stating "fast charging cables" compatible with USB 3.1 for faster charging speeds etc.... So my follow up question is what wire to purchase, does it make a difference and is getting a fast charging cable or 3.1 compatible cable going to enhance charging speed? Also how do I know whether my adapter plug will even accept USB 3.0 or 3.1 or whether these types of cables are compatible or can cause issues with the device itself?
Are the apple chargers safe for charging this? I’ve been relying on my ipad usb-c charger for most things, I’m not really sure how electricty thing works 😭 should I buy another charger for this specially?
Hello Javi. I just got mine and it seems the SD card has already failed. Every time I turn it on, it’s stuck on the Anbernic boot logo and not sure what to do. If I just take a copy of all the contents from the defunct card and transfer it to a 128gb card I just have laying around, will it work again? I attempted to put GarlicOS on it but I just could not get it to work.
Pode me tirar uma dúvida no slot 1 não pode ser cartão maior q 64giga? Coloquei de 128 peguei arquivos do cartão chinês passei pro novo e nada de funcionar
@@JaviPlayRetro sniff, but that does look so cool. Especially considering I want this for game boy emulation primarily. Sweet design. I keep eye for more in future haha
I killed a RG35XX and RG35XX+ and both were destroyed. The second time was a mistake, I was in a hurry and wanted to charge it. I took the wrong charger (Samsung Fastcharge) and instantly killed.
Im pinning your comment so others can see it. Theres still people in the comments saying fast chargers are safe. Thanks for sharing.

Regarding the fast charging, i guess it depends on the charger itself. The charger should recognise the device is not compatible with fast charging and default to the lowest output. But not all do that.
I got a 5V 2.1A charger for this console. From what I understand, the back of the console says to use 5V and greater than 1.5A.
Tip: Update it with latest firmware 1208 firmware it works a lot better (PSP / Dreamcast) ... how can you say keep it with the first one... 1108 is really not the best version... 1208 is way better and was also a lot more stable on my device and you can use the Dpad as a stick now with some games on PSP and DC.

I dont like the way boxart is treated in 1208. Also, I've read a lot of reports from people having different issues with this firmware. Things like PSP emulation getting worst to battery being drained while off and stuff like that. You can do what you want. Im okay 1108 personally. I personally dont play those cd based systems like sega cd. And you can do the psp analog to dpad thing on 1108 pretty easily.
Yeah the boxart is a big deal for me!
I really the new update for that 😅
There's 1212 now
Does this device play psp games well? Like patapon or god of war for instance?
Hi just want to tell you that you need a 5v charger and more or equal to 1.5 amps. Using less amps will damage the battery because its Lipo
Where did you get the Pokemon Yellow sticker?
Any recommendations best place to download new games ? Preferably PSP.. thanks in advance
How about charging through laptop with USB cable ? Is it safe?
Should i clone the OS SD card, or should I clone the card where games are because i just got my 128gb RG35 plus, and im curious
Hi all, I just bought my console and was wondering if it matters how I charge it the first time. Should I fully charge it first before powering up the console or can I play with it a bit 5-10% and then let it charge?

Yes you can connect two controllers as far what games can you play with two controllers that I don’t know but I would assume you can
Where did you get the mock game cartridge sticker?
Hey man, great video! By any chance, would you happen to know of a PS5 Controller can be connected to it?
It is strange because their website says it works with C2C (usb C to usb C) charger but I don´t think it exists a 5v 1.5a usb c charger...

So, plug-in into the tv is just straight foward? And the Bluetooth controller can link 2 to play vs??
Can I plug the charger straight into my extension lead with usb slot or will it break it
So I finally got my 8bitDO Pro to work without lag (it was a setting on my LG TV) but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to send audio out to the TV. Video is just fine, but audio is a no go.
Hi , just got mine. May I ask , how long does it take to start? When I turned it on it just stayed on Anbernic logo.
Any specific screen protector brands you can recommend?
I hear others bought new ones online and they still didn't fit and had bubbles around the edges because the screen is a bit curved.
I can't recommend any right now. I would get one that is like a film, not a tempered glass. That way, you can cut it size by hand.
Just got an rg35xx... Complete noob .. Harry Potter chamber of secrets keeps freezing during intro. Read on Reddit, need to overclock. But watching this super helpful video (seriously would've killed my device), I noticed I don't have half those settings. Barely any customization settings and def no retroarch.
Now I'm just confused
Where can i find the Pokemon Game sticker from the backside ?
Also would like to know
Mine just Stays in begining display and doesnt work !! Help please
can I ask do you think the D pad is good? i cant stand a bad d pad i wanted to ask someone who would give an honest answer its okay if its not i just want to know before i buy one
It's pretty reasonably. No issues with quarter circles or anything.
Dpad is excellent. Much improved over the regular RG35XX
I have a really have a MacBook Pro. Would I be able to back up the Original SD, that came with it?
Is there a way to play the Pokémon Heart Gold version on this or the plus? I tried and it doesn’t let me click the bottom screen at the start of launch
What is “flashing” a SD card?
Can you share info on how to use the wifi on adding games on the device.
This is not possible yet. We need to wait for CFW for this feature.
I'm having trouble adding games. The roms I found online don't have the same file extensions as the default roms. I could just change the file extension, but I doubt that will work.
i just bought it, its my first time with this console! would u recommend changing the firmware to a new CFW? which one u think its the best
second, I bought a new micro sd card, should I buy another one? how many do I need
third, do u have any safe page to download roms? i wanna play gba games
and lastly, iv been trying some games and many of thems are lagged or low fps... like sega genesis .. is a way to play them better
and last question, how do u charge the console? whats the best way to charge it? any USB C cable?? thanks for answering all, cheers I suscribed
I want to ask if I used a quick charger from Samsung at 5V - 2.0A just once, does this already mean that I have worsened the performance of the console battery?
Hey, can someone answer my question?: i have two chargers, one is 5.0V- 1.2A, the other is 5.0V-2.0A, are they both good or only the first one?, or nono of them?.., i ask because i am not sure i understand the 1.5A part which Ambernic recommends and if those i have are much higher or lower. Also, this are just output measurements, what about input measurements ,they don t matter?.., i have a 35A on input whit one of the chargers.
Can I use this if I don’t have a Pc? How do I download games if I only have a MacBook?
Yeah, you can. Just download games from any game archive online. Example search dreamcast archive etc
i have been having audio issues 24/7 since getting this device. nonstop humming as well as screetching noise, and can only be drowned out (not fixed) with super high volume. have tried with/without wifi/bluetooth on , restarting , resetting , etc. could i have possibly gotten a bad unit ? literally it does not stop unless device is powered off.
They really need to work on Bluetooth audio, my headphones jack has a short and their solution is for me to ship back my device(which could be 8 days or more), they receive the device, exchange for another one(which could be 8 days or more).
All of this during the holiday times, it could be a month before I get the replacement while being empty handed.
I'm trying to see if I can fix Bluetooth audio myself, maybe script it
Im sorry to hear that. My device isn't perfect either. Mine has some light bleed along the screen edges where the screen is not glued all the way. It's not noticeable in the day, but it's annoying at night. I could return it as I bought it from Amazon, but it's not really that serious to me.
I plan to fix it, myself too. Good luck with yours, though. I hope you find an easy fix! Ill let you know if Anbernic fixes bluetooth audio in the next update.
Has there been any news for the bt-audio? This one is a dealbreaker for me as I'm looking for getting one for the commute.
With my new rg35xx+ I went in to menu > controls> within psp game and was mapping DPAD up and down but now the up and down doesn't work at all in any psp game. Cant navigate menu to change it back. Any help?
What about a Nintendo switch charger
Can you conect two blutooth controlers to play two vs two?, sorry to overwhelm you whit questions.. xd
Then why are they still build a type c if the device are so weak in the fast charger? Doesn't makes sense 😢 all type c ass device has a capability to charge fast whatever adapter you use.. that's so confusing, i have a cheap type c cable and suck into my FC adapter and my phone charge slow, so i change to original type c and suck to the same adapter and it charge fast.. So the adapter is not the issue, USE THE PROVIDED type c instead
Any idea how I can fix mine? Somehow NONE of the buttons work when i play games. They only work when im navigating to the game i want to play. Additionally all the in game menus are in chinese??

@@JaviPlayRetro bless you javi 🙏🏾
Does it come with preinstalled games?
Where do I go to get new roms? Since everybody keeps saying not to use the ones it comes with.. please help.
Vimms lair
You can use the roms it comes with. Just put them on a better SD card. You can also get other roms online if you don't like the ones it comes with
If i want to use bluethoh and wifi, what can i do whit them?, specially wifi, can i surf the net and stuff?.. xd
As of right now the only function you have with wifi is retro achievements, you can update retroarch, netplay, and moonlight streaming. However whenever CFW comes along youll get features like over the air updates and scraping boxart
Can I create my own directory with my favorite games, for example MY, in the ROMS directory on the card? And the console will see them?
Will any micro sd card work for it? There’s a SAMSUNG - MEMORIES EVO PLUS 128Gb sd card on Amazon at moment for £11. Just wondering if that will be fine?
Yes
I am waiting on this handheld being delivered to my house, I am confused though as people online are talking about charging issues, specifically with adapters and cables. The website states a USB C-C cable but some are reporting the ned for a USB A-C cable which means I am unsure what cable and adapter to purchase. Someone please reply and help me lol
Okay use a usb C to usb A cable and use a charging brick that is 5V that is 1.5A or higher and you will be fine. Don't use c to c. Don't use fast chargers.
Thanks bro, purchased a Sony Adapter Plug today with these specifications. My follow up question is about USB Cables. You recommend A-C but I am seeing cables on amazon stating "fast charging cables" compatible with USB 3.1 for faster charging speeds etc....
So my follow up question is what wire to purchase, does it make a difference and is getting a fast charging cable or 3.1 compatible cable going to enhance charging speed? Also how do I know whether my adapter plug will even accept USB 3.0 or 3.1 or whether these types of cables are compatible or can cause issues with the device itself?
@@thebiglad25 Fast charging cables are fine. Fast chargers are not. Dont use c to c as well. Just use usb a to c on a slow charger
@@JaviPlayRetro Thank you for your help
Are the apple chargers safe for charging this? I’ve been relying on my ipad usb-c charger for most things, I’m not really sure how electricty thing works 😭 should I buy another charger for this specially?
Have you noticed your device getting really hot when charging? Or have you experienced any weird battery related issues?
@@JaviPlayRetro I just ordered mine yesterday 😅 I’ve been watching videos in the device to make sure I take good care of it once I have it :)
Hello Javi. I just got mine and it seems the SD card has already failed. Every time I turn it on, it’s stuck on the Anbernic boot logo and not sure what to do. If I just take a copy of all the contents from the defunct card and transfer it to a 128gb card I just have laying around, will it work again? I attempted to put GarlicOS on it but I just could not get it to work.
Check out my latest guide. ruclips.net/video/h9ilWUCMLLY/видео.htmlsi=JeRmZtaLKjQjllLQ
That will not work youll need to a stock install. Also GarlicOS is not supported on the plus yet.
@@JaviPlayRetro thank you 🙏🏻
Pode me tirar uma dúvida no slot 1 não pode ser cartão maior q 64giga? Coloquei de 128 peguei arquivos do cartão chinês passei pro novo e nada de funcionar
You the man
Is no one gonna talk about the pokemon cartridge sticker on the back? Where can i get myself one of those?
I made those! I printed them at my job. Sadly you missed my giveaway. I gaveaway a whole pack of 6 to my subs
@@JaviPlayRetro sniff, but that does look so cool. Especially considering I want this for game boy emulation primarily.
Sweet design. I keep eye for more in future haha
