I've seen the black variant, many say it's so much better for LED lights and fingerprints.

Omg, that looks so beautiful. I want one so bad. Great video, Davey

Also apparently if you use the dropdown menu for the joystick lights and hold for a few seconds you can dim the ring around them...

Been binge watching your videos of these emulators cuz Im looking to get one and realized you do a giveaway almost every time you do a review on a new model you got yourself a new subscriber cheers great content by the way 😂🤘🏽

Awesome review! Thanks. I think I’m ready to order it. I was going to buy RP4pro, but I saw the screen and triggers are having severe issues.

You said all those systems run well, but you didn’t mention if you were able to upscale. No point in having that nice 1080P screen if you can’t upscale the 3-D systems. Did you have good luck with that?

[brittanymerino]

I swear I love when you describe the buttons 😂 “ squishy not clicky “

[noahk]

Great video, Davey! Thank you for explaining everything so well. Most definitely interested in getting one of these!

Hi mate where did you get your handheld organizer that holds your consoles?

[TFEnright]

I’m a huge anti-gravity racing fan. How do you F-Zero GX for the GameCube and Wipeout Fusion for the PS2 run? They’re both supposed to be 60 frames per second.

Great video, thank you. My personal all time favorite Android hand held is the GPD XD+. Best overall mix of compactness, performance and capability I've ever come across and I still play it all the time. But its dated chips and Android 7 OS is showing its age so I started looking for an upgrade and picked up the 556 in black. Wow do I love this thing. It costs the same as the GPD XD+ did 5 years ago, but packs way more punch on every front except compactness. Fine by me because the 556 is so freaking comfortable to hold. I have medium size hands so the thumbsticks feel great to me, the button layout is perfect, action buttons are just the right mix of click and mush to me, same for the d pad. My GPD is fingerprint friendly too, but I don't count this as a legit minus, I always clean my handhelds after using them anyway. I think the 556 is the best retro/GooglePlay handheld Anbernic has ever made, and just my opinion but dollar for dollar the best overall Android handheld currently available. It's so damn good. My one and only gripe is that it doesn't come with a case, but I scored a nice one for ten bucks on Amazon. Thank you again for this very thoughtful and informative video.

Hey Davey I sub to your channel I rlly want the retro pocket 3 plus because I have a rg351v and It’s sound is buggy I need this 😭

[Francestoke]

Fantastic review as always a sub from me, would love a chance at winning either the pocket 3+ modified by you or the smaller anbernic. Did you get a chance to try the black version of the 556? Would love to know how it feels compared to the blue version 😊

As an ROG Ally owner, I was looking for something smaller and easier to handle for game streaming and emulation. I am already returning it.

The speakers are good but nowhere near the crispness of the Ally. WiFi 5 is super limiting. I have a 6E router and the Ally’s WiFi 6 allows me to stream at 1080p 120fps. The RG556 was stuttering on the exact same location on a local stream at only 60fps.

The joysticks area real shame considering how good those grips are. Hard to be accurate.

Finally, and again this is only because I already have an Ally, the performance is just not worth the price to me. PS2 games in particular look awful at standard res and you can’t push them further most of the time.

For now I’m sticking with my Ally but will look into the RP4P or possibly the AYN Odin 2 mini with that mini LED screen. If the screen slaps, they bump it to 120hz and WiFi 6 that will be my next pocket handheld.

How do you find the Joysticks apart from being small are they good?

[joelabram]

Do you notice a difference in streaming quality compared to the retroid pocket 4 pro? RP4 has wifi 6

[jjayala]

Just got the rp4 pro but was debating this. This is a really nice device.
