Rg556 = Nice to hold / big screen /cheap & 70%ps 2 game able to play ... retroid pocket 4 pro = Small, compact/ light/ battery last long & 90% ps 2 game able to play... Both are good. But i prefer odin 2 pro 😂
Yeah the Odin 2 Pro does look like a great device, it just costs quite a bit more. I do think it is worth that cost though if you are able to pay it. Your short summary above really describes the RP4 Pro and RG556 well. Thanks for watching and for adding your thoughts
Awesome, glad to hear that you are enjoying it. I clean forgot about optional grips when making the video 🙈. I can imagine that would make it much more comfortable. Thanks for the feedback
Those benefits are the reason my opinion has been swaying towards the RG556. When I made the video I was slightly more in favour of the RP4 Pro. But a lot of awesome feedback for the Rg556, It really seems like awesome handeld
That is one of its main benefits and a good reason to use it. Must say the feedback i have been getting on how good the 556 is has swayed me. If i had the scratch to buy it i would get the 556 first,
I must agree, all the positive comments I've seen on it has really won me over. Also the way the OLED looks on the review video's. The display is just so much more alive and vibrant
It depends, the pocket 4 pro is more powerful and portable. The RG556 has better display and feels better in your hands. For the pocket 4 pro you can buy a complement to have a better grip on aliexpress but it would be more price. If you want to play PS2 and GC, the pocket pro is better, if you want older games and a better display then the RG556.
You are quite correct on all those counts, the RP 4 Pro does have a little more power under the hood. but i have to say that Oled Screen and the comfortable ergonomicso f the 556 won me over. I have had so many positive comments in regards to it from users that i am now converted to team 556, lol!
I feel the opposite. The Retroid is better for older games, because of the worse/ smaller screen, and portability. The 556 is better for GC games because of the bigger better screen, and comfort.
@TheTechUpdate-ui1fh most def. my hands can grip a bball so I NEED that grip on the console 😂 a bigger OLED screen also is a big plus 💪🏾 thanks for the recommendation bro ✊🏾 keep the good content comin 🫡
That was my hope aswell but i saw russ over at Retro Game Corps doing a pocket test with the RG Cube and it is a bit Bulky to fit comofortably. This will differ from person to person i guess and the size of the pocket but of the bat im not shure if it will be as pocketable as what i would wan't it toi be. Sad Story.
@@TheTechUpdate-ui1fh the thing that I can't understand Is why everybody told that RP4PRO Is more powerful than RG556 If this One can ran all same games in equal way?
@@Ivan-hq2zkthe Chip on the RP4 Pro is slight😢 more powerful, maybe 5-10% that I've seen in testing. Thing is with real world experience you rarely notice that small a difference in performance. It's usually only when running the 2 units side by side on the same games with frame rate counters on that you can notice a difference
@@TheTechUpdate-ui1fh thanks,I'm Just asking because I want buy One and only retro console but good until PS2,but RG556 will come with games and RP4PRO no....thanks.😁
@@blackwoodjankins Awesome to hear that. Sorry about the issues with Urban Reign. Its the first time i have heard of the game. Looks awesome though and want to try it on my pc emulator. What is the problem you are having with it? Is it lauching to the startup screen in the emulator or not at all?
@@blackwoodjankins could be related to settings then maybe? Saw a video earlier that showed how to get it tweaked for good performance. Just a bit tied down at the mo but will look that up for you and post asap
I was leaning towards it too, but the Oled screeen and comfortable ergonomics just seem next level to me. Have had a lot of good feedback on it aswell. What do you like most about the RP4 Pro?
@@TheTechUpdate-ui1fh yeah if you’re leaning towards those two features, the rg556 is better. I just think the performance, quality and the fact that the RP4P is pocketable is perfect. Those are all the features that have me sold on the device. I don’t trust Anbernic’s durability.
Im in the way back from the 556 to the retroid, had performance issues with some games lika baldurs gate and f zero gx. I must say that maybe 10% of ps2 and gamecube is laggy on the 556 otherwise great machine. If had a bette processor will be a no brainer as the display is 10/10.
I have truly grown to love the idea of the Rg556 just because of all the positive feedback i am getting. But yes agree with you Odin 2 is better albeit more expensive.

@TheTechUpdate-ui1fh thanks for the reminder 🤩
I bought Retroid Pocket 4 with a grip and it's just perfect. For me the power matters.
Awesome, glad to hear that you are enjoying it. I clean forgot about optional grips when making the video 🙈. I can imagine that would make it much more comfortable. Thanks for the feedback
RG556 is £121 via Anbernic's own AliExpress store and comes with the case for that price too. OLED screen, far comfier to hold...

Got both but stuck with RP4P just because its so much smaller and can fit in my hoodies easy compared to the 556
That is one of its main benefits and a good reason to use it. Must say the feedback i have been getting on how good the 556 is has swayed me. If i had the scratch to buy it i would get the 556 first,
Hands down 556, the OLED is insane for the price and it is super comfortable

Trimui smart pro retroid pocket 4pro❤
Those are awesome consoles
literally debating between these 2 for the purchase 😂😂 RG is winning rn 😅😁
I would choose the 556 for the Oled screen and the ergonomic grips aswell. Thanks for watching.

Awesome, let me know what your experience is with it once you receive it
@@TheTechUpdate-ui1fh had it for a couple weeks now I love this thing.. only one game i cant get to work and its “Urban Reign”

Go OLED , I’m gonna get one soon
The Oled does look absolutely awesome, thanks for watching.
retroid pocket is smoother
Noted, from what I've seen it does perform a little bi better. Thanks for the feedback
RP4P is far superior.
