The ANBERNIC RG35XX H Is An Underrated Handheld

Anbernic have been releasing a whole lot of new handhelds recently, many of which are a part of their RG35XX line of systems which all feature very similar specs but in different form factors. While the RG35XX SP and the RG35XX Plus are potentially more attractive for playing specific systems, the RG35XX H aims to be more of a versatile all-in-one device, but does it succeed in its mission?

Can I just say you were the only reviewer that I’ve watched that reviews these devices and zooms in so we can actually see the gameplay and I appreciate that. I don’t know why these other reviewers have their cameras zoomed way out to where you can hardly see anything.

The RG35xx winner for me. Over the many handhelds I have, the H is still my go to for it's power level. The RG35XX H and my Retroid Pocket 4 Pro are the two daily drivers.

I just bought one Friday and it'll get here tomorrow. I'm excited.

I finished Metroid Zero Mission on this thing and currently working my way through Chrono Trigger. It's great.

I love my RG35XX H, it's the one, out of dozens of handhelds I have, that I take with me when travelling. Though a good reason not to buy it might be that Anbernic is just about to release the RG40XX H which has the same form factor, a bigger screen and stacked shoulder buttons.

It's a BEAST!
Mine arrives tomorrow!

[doctorboot]

it's so underrated that it has multiple "best of" videos on multiple channels.

[anonymouslyyoutubing]

I’ve watched like 500 reviews on these and this was far and the way the most helpful. Thanks for keeping it simple for us beginners!

[lliixzllii]

I bought a few of these on aliexpress it's around $50 there. Neat handheld for ps1 and below, looking forward to rg40xxh

[BCRFC]

Mine arrived today got it for £35 from ali express 😎

[SWPLGAMING]

This one is pretty comfortable for sure, it's a pretty good competition for devices in its price range. Great video bud 👍🏾

[Luaponyt]

Its really great - i have repaced my RP4pro with the rg35xx h

[StevieDrawStuff]

Its my first anbernic system and I just got mine in the mail. Updated the os and changed the theme. The Naomi games run well too. Comes with a good selection of games. The Dreamcast runs well as you said. Very good portable retro handheld.

[Darkstar]

Mine was delivered last week. Absolutely loving it so far.

I'm still in the process of adding more Roms.

[ultrakoichi]

I've got this device and bought it when it came out. Really good. I like it a lot. I use Batocera/Koriki and that's good firmware as well. Highly recommend it. I love the transparent purple. Purple is very subtle colour.

[TheScripflipNetwork]

The h is great for the on the go factor. I have beaten super Mario world on this as well as snatcher and mario 64 ds. Psp seemed like a bad idea but I've been playing peace walker and it's running pretty great. Im considering custom firmware but no option is convenient even ehen it cones to updating the stockl operating system.
Definitely buy this one even if you have a steam deck because its simply powerful abd pocketable. I've been waiting for something this capable and ergonomic to hit the market for years; the other really neat looking handhelds before this were eith overpriced or extremely underpowered. This is going to push things forward from here and we should expect some great handheld emulation hardware as well as software. Get ready with your cash because the golden era is almost here.

thanks for the review.. just got one of these and look forward to try it out..

[brokensword]

I love anbernic, really good company. I have anbernic rg40xxh, and I love it. I bring it with. Whenever I go outside. For more demanding games I use my steam deck oled.

[matthewbown]

Honestly I don't know which to go for so many have been released, would love one of these handhelds.

[Audioremedy]

I got mine for £35 new having dabbled in the past with some cheaper ones ans honestly it’s brilliant. For ps1 and earlier it’s brilliant. N64 and Dreamcast are very good. 10% of titles won’t be playable and 10% come with compromises. But 80% are excellent for casual play. Its form factor is a little bit small by design. So it’s not ideal for long play sessions. The tv out works brilliantly (which isn’t mentioned here).
