If this device had the OnionOS/GarlicOS experience it would be the perfect device for me. Regardless of that it comes with me every day to work. It’s the best vertical form factor for longer play sessions IMO. Just wanted to show some love!

    Yep. Still have my black one with AmberElec installed. I love everything about it other than the display’s somewhat muted colors and mediocre battery life.

    “Still”

    How retro. Mine went into an attic shoebox already. /s

    RP2+ and RP3+ here, along with a strong interest in the RG405M. Love a solid 4:3 device.

    I got the grey running Amberelec and it’s very nice but I did upgrade to a retroid pocket 3+ but kinda separated the two with the RG being a 8/16 bit powerhouse and the RP3 being a PSP/NDS focus with some widescreen hacks (bsnes hd) on the side.

    The RG351v would be used more if it had 5Ghz wifi, and my router can’t do both. Retroachievements are too nice.

    Let me guess… Lemmy rotated your pic 😅

    Yes and I love it, sadly I had back luck with mine because it stopped to work within a week when I bought it, I talked to Anbernic and after like a month of emails and slow process they agreed to send me a motherboard, which I accepted and replaced myself, but turned out it didn’t have the rumble motor, I should have savaged mine, but due my inexistent soldering skills I just say fuck it and used it without it, which it sucks, because as a console gamer I like rumble motion when possible… Still i can fix it I guess…

    I only have that one (black model) a Retroid Pocket 2 (not plus), and a Miyoo Mini which I treasure a lot because the lack of supply… And I like more the RG351V because the Retroachivements!

      Yup Lemmy rotated my pic lol. I rarely use rumble but that’s because I mainly use mine for 16 bit and below. Hopefully you get it sorted out!

    I actually plan on selling mine soon. I have an RP3+ for PSP and above and an RG35XX for day to day use.

    I do find the use of one analog stick on the RG351V a little odd considering it struggles with PSP. I get it can be useful for homebrew or if you want a D pad replacement but I’m in the camp of two sticks or nothing.

    I have not bought any retro handhelds aside from this. Pretty much use it whenever I get the chance. It is the only reason why I have not even bought a Steamdeck yet!

    I loaded alot of PSX titles on this one. Mainly play JRPGS but oftentimes I end up playing games such as Command and Conquer and Warcraft 2 over and over again 😅
