Hands-on with the Anbernic RG 55G1; Anbernic's Snapdragon Gamble

> Anbernic's first Snapdragon-powered handheld is beautifully designed, comfortable to use and capable, but the G1 Gen 2's weak GPU makes a starting-from $150 price harder to justify.

Lilbits: Clicks Communicator, another use for the Anbernic RG Rotate, and two tiny operating systems

The Clicks Communicator is a modern smartphone that borrows some ideas from classic BlackBerry phones. Made by the same folks behind the Clicks keyboard cases for existing phones, the company’s first full-fledged phone has a square screen, a QWERTY keyboard, and a customized Android interface.

Clicks began taking pre-orders for the Communicator at the start of the year, and plans to begin […]

Lilbits: Android for desktop PCs leaks, as does NVIDIA’s processors for laptops

Google has made it pretty clear that it’s working on bringing a desktop mode to Android, effectively blurring the lines between Android and ChromeOS (and maybe eventually phasing out the latter). But most of the work on that project has been taking place behind closed doors.

A recent bug report in the Chromium bug tracker provided an early look though. While the web page has been removed, the […]

Modified the boot image, background and icons for my #Anbernic rg34xx sp. It's finally worthy of me ✨

Compare handheld gaming PC specs (Asus, AYA, GPD, Lenovo, MSI, ONEXPLAYER, and Valve)

There are a growing number of handheld gaming PCs on the market, and the list keeps growing. A handful of Chinese companies including GPD, AYANEO, and One Netbook arguably kicked things off, but these days the Steam Deck, Lenovo Legion Go, and Asus ROG Ally (including Xbox-branded models) get a lot of attention.

In fact, there are so many different models available or set to launch soon that […]

If you've got a #PowKiddy #v90 (with the #MiyooCFW firmware) or #Anbernic device, you might find that you can get more movies/shows on a card and have them play smoother with this oneline #bash script (just an ffmpeg command that uses $1 as a filename:
------

#!/bin/bash

ffmpeg -y -i "$1" -r 20 -s 352x288 -vb 400k -acodec aac -strict experimental -ac 1 -ar 8000 -ab 24k "$1.3gp"

------
It'll make a 3gp video file with a lower bitrate and resolution. Fine for tiny screens

> Say what you will about #Anbernic’s continued commitment to the #Allwinner H700 chip, but this has turned out to be one of the best chips for #retrohandhelds. Don’t believe me? Check out the latest video from Rob the Retro Tech Dad, where he manages to get #GameCube #games running on an Anbernic #RG34XXSP.

I am little bit disappointed with the #anbernic #rg35xxsp; besides being loud the d-pad is very inaccurate and playing game like Street Fighter II or Art of Fighting 2 is really unfeasible.

Now I am considering to buy a newer one retro-console and this really pisses me off... 😡

I am thinking about the #Miyoo #Flip2 or the newer #rg34xxsp...

Started Playing Mega Man Battle Network 4: Red Sun (GameBoy Advance Emulation) on my Anbernic RG35XX-H. Oh I love this series, and many of the GBA generation games!

I'm going for a #trip today that will take half a day. That means it'll be the first lengthy chance at portable gaming on the road with my #NintendoSwitch and #Anbernic #RG35XX SP. I will also make some time to read on my #Kobo as well.

So, I either finish a #book, do a bunch of #DragonQuestXI or do a bunch of #FireEmblem Blazing Blade—or fall asleep the whole trip.

It's crazy how many PC #games you can add to your cheapo handhelds like #Anbernic's #RG35XX (family) thanks to #Portmaster - including #StardewValley, #Undertale, #Deltarune, #HalfLife, and even #Minetest.

It's making me wanna buy some of the older games found in this list that I would've not wanted to play on my PC otherwise.

At K-TEC, we take pride in our unique approach to #retrogaming handheld devices.

These custom firmwares are designed to improve performance, ease-of-use, and overall user-experience.

I think the safest device for this purpose is the #Anbernic #RG35xx; it can play a ton of games, has wifi for achievements, and can be had for as little as $50. They are common and have a lot of support from OSes like #minUI #MuOS #ArkOS and #knulli. The people I want to gift them to wouldn't appreciate Gamecube/Dreamcast support much anyway.

Turns out #Rocknix needs it's roms in a /roms folder while the stock #Anbernic keeps it at the root of the ext card. I seem to remember that from when I installed #GarlicOS on my #RG35xx.

I wish all these #opensource #emulation projects could get together and standardize a few things. Feels like a solvable problem.

I've had an #Anbernic #RGArcS sitting around in a box waiting for me to play with it for months and I just now learned about #RockNix

Check out the latest review from Our Nerd Corner! They put the #Anbernic #RG405M, as set up by K-TEC, through its paces. With its metal shell and premium feel, this device is even powerful enough to play some Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 2 games. With our optimized set-up, you can play 55 consoles out of the box!

Finally got around to fixing a few of my devices with problematic dpad's over the weekend as well as adding copper shims and missing rumble motor to the rgb30. I managed to JUST get a 2mm shim under the heat shield of the x55. #Powkiddy #anbernic #rocknix #retrohandheld

Got myself an #Anbernic #RG35XX Linux based handheld from China. Mainly to play Gameboy and Gameboy Advance games from my childhood.

The build quality of the device did *really* surprise me. It's super hefty plastics, sturdy and has weight to it. Also the buttons are super comfortable and satisfying. It feels like I remember my real Gameboy from back in the day. Just with a (way) better display.

Definitely a pleasant surprise from a sub 50$ device from china.

I tested Gameboy, SNES, Gameboy-Advance, Playstation 1 and Dreamcast games on it and so far, it could run all games well. Under the hood, it's a Linux based system with Retroarch emulators.

Now I can't get the melody of Tetris out of my head again 🤣

For people who use Anbernic RG35XX (H, Pro (or even SP), newer chip variant).

Which OS are you using?

I'm in between modified Stock and MuOS, but wanted to hear your input.

Progress I have a booting proper distro on my RGB30 #anbernic #powkiddy #rockchip

I do enjoy using the Anbernic RG35XX PLUS, but certainly the early batches had a flaw...

The headphones can cut out with audio coming and going, and after opening up I could easily see the problem.

The headphones port unit is just sitting on the pads and not soldered on properly. You can even lift the unit!

Once I soldered the joints it's been absolutely fine, but looking online I'm not the only person who had this issue. Saved me sending it back for repair.

1/2

After sending my Anbernic RG351P to the grave (don't ask me why 🥲), I bought the Anbernic RG35XX-H as a portable retro gaming console.

@zafer ' s new toy, the RG35XX Pro model (last photo), has the same chipset. Its price was quite reasonable compared to the RG351p at the time (Anbernic is currently $53 + taxes, whereas when I bought the RG351p, it was around $110 excl. taxes).

Anbernic RG35XXSP is a gaming handheld with a Game Boy Advance SP inspired design

The new Anbernic RG35XXSP is a handheld game console with an Allwinner H700 processor, a Linux-based operating system, 1GB of LPDDR4 RAM, and 64GB of storage as well as two microSD card readers.
In other words, it’s a cheap device that should have enough horsepower for emulation of game consoles up through the PlayStation 1, but not much […]

@Nawer_Rapter have you considered a Linux or Android handheld? The ones made by #Anbernic #Miyoo #Powkiddy and #RetroidPocket are pretty easy to use and come with a ton of games, including GBA. I have an #RG35XX with #GarlicOS that works great!

I tried again to upload roms to my #anbernic #rg35xx using #winscp because I don't have an sd card reader. I got access but I can't upload anything and I get this message: "The file is on read-only media, or the media is write protected.
Error code: 12
Error message from server (en): Read-only file system"
I still have the stock OS which is fine for me and, worst still, the stock sd cards. I remember when I inserted the cards in my old laptop it was error after error. #retrogaming

PSA: The Anbernic RG35XX Plus and H are on sale on Shopee for ~PhP 2,800. If you get a 128GB microSD card for PhP 400 (e.g. Lexar), you can get both for just PhP 2,200 using vouchers.
