    4:3 looks so much better on handhelds than wide screen. Even with the native android games.

    • @DownMemoryLaneParis
      @DownMemoryLaneParis 11 месяцев назад

      Totally perfect format. It makes all game fit more or less, and all retro gaming perfect. 4:3 is the best. followed by 3:2 ( bit wider, better for modern games, but still good for retro ) then the 1:1...amazing for shoots and protable systems.
      16:9 is really lame and only gives an edge for PSP, or Android games, or eventually WII in wide mode...
      I just wish it would be a Linux based system so we could enjoy TRUE frontends like Batocera.

    Great review, I like the teardown part added to the main review video. I like how you pointed out how easy a battery replacement would be. Yes I love the black buttons better on the black and grey devices, save the candy buttons for more color devices. The candy seems to standout way to much ( color wise ). now to the handheld its self, no video out, My heart just dropped. single SD card slot, no dual boot, that sucks. I Did like to see they went with the Xbox control layout, and gave option for pre-configure xbox controls. It does sucks a little they went with the 4.3 screen layout, not 16.9 hurting the higher up game play.

I really think it's important when devices have easy repairable/replaceable components such as the battery since those are prone to failure.

  • @molybdnum
    @molybdnum Год назад +18

    As usual, the perfect handheld is a moving target... This one has a very confuse use case, IMO. Less value for money than the RP3/3+ for a T618, less power and spec customization than the KTR1. This could have a niche as a GC/PS2 device - it's the smallest T618 so far, which is nice, and top-stick + some thickness is maybe going to make it more comfortable than the RP3+ for that - but inline, non-analog triggers and the low screen rez is a disappointment.

      Always pros and cons with all of these handhelds!

    • @dokferr
      @dokferr Год назад +8

      There's nothing wrong with the screen resolution. The chipset is not powerful enough for PS2 and GC, 1x internal resolution is better with 480p screen. And for DC, using 2x internal resolution will give better AA because of supersampling.
      2D graphic such as on Snes and Genesis is also better with 480p. If the screen has higher resolution, the 2d games will become more pixelated. It also gives more room for the use of extensive shader.
      The only downside of this screen is for PSP and android games. But there is already RP3+ for that.

    • @L337g4m3r
      @L337g4m3r Год назад +7

      The "low screen res" 4:3 aspect is because it is mostly used for emulators and that is a good resolution for integer scaling on many emulators. Also on a screen this small 640 x 480 is not bad, I have the RG350M with the same resolution and it is fine.

    how is the screen size when playing n64? i have the 3.5inch rg353m and i find the screen too small for n64. does the half inch more screen make a difference?

    • @retrotechdad
      @retrotechdad  Год назад +2

      No, I don't think it's going to be as dramatic of a difference coming from that screen size. N64 games look great on the smaller screen but if you're on the RG353M, it's probably not going to look/feel that different.

      There are a lot of people who will buy a console just because it appears ‘quality’, so there is a market. I bought the 405m because it will be my only retro handheld that will leave the house and therefore needs to be a bit more sturdy.

      Depends on the form factor you are looking for, same chipset. RP3+ has the 16:9 display whereas the 405M has a 4:3 display. It's also slightly more compact but has a metal build.
      It comes down to preference mostly, but both are very solid devices.
