Oh heck yeah!!!! Great video. Still one of my favorite micro handhelds

[JeffBreyer]

I gotta grab one of these. I grabbed the powkiddy rgb10x and Miyoo A30 instead but i am blown away by anbernic's quality on the cubexx

Great video Derek and good luck with the new channel!

I'm Glad the RG28XX is getting some love it's awesome all the other guys videos on it keeps tearing it apart it'll a comfortable solid device I been playing a lot of Pokemon and Crash on it my fingers are fine haha.

The start select are positioned for Tatio mode, so you can play rotated MAME games that are in portrait instead of landscape.

Spruce 3.0 on the Miyoo a30 is Soo good now.

you probably picked it up but resolution is wrong at 0:41

also would be nice to show the different colorway images

[joelchrono]

I am still undecided about which 2.8 inch console to buy.

I would love a comparison with the Miyoo A30 with spruce 3, however, I kind of want to get this one since I can exchange the sd cards with my other anbernic devices and that might be quite worth it

[jjwhyy]

I bought it. It's pretty good and light as a feather. Cons: compared to something like the 3DS Or Miyoo (plus) it's a little uncomfortable w big hands or long fingers. Though I'd still recommend it. Its fun and love the preloaded games.. My luck w Ebay emulators is hit or miss. This is def worth it (45$).

[tonyrosario]

Derek, what are your thoughts on the RGB10X? Been thinking about that one lately, with that single joystick. 🍻

[peterle]

I've been using my rg28xx when im on my lunch break and at home :D. It's my go to portable handheld. Currently playing through goodboy galaxy. Can't recomend the device enough. Haven't tried MinUI before but I've had a good experience with MuOS on the rg35xx plus so I just flashed it on the rg28xx. MinUI does look super clean and simple though

[banknavigator]

After use, is there any light leakage around the edge of the screen?

[caldeio]

Battery life?

I just got two of these for my twins. They use my steam deck and switch lite. So There gonna love this!

[LuckyAzazel]

How is it in your pocket?
I had a Miyoo A30, liked the size, but it would keep turning on in my pocket. Does this give you an issue like that?

[amann]

How about PSP? Can this handle psp? If not, what's the next smallest device that can? Thanks for the review

[Paul-qznd]

Is this reasonable to read the dialog of a jrpg like final fantasy 8 or 9?

[WitchDoctor]

Rg35xx h is better, i feel. This needs two joysticks. With postmaster, we are bound to see more great titles that need sticks.

[azodin]

With spruce 3.0 out, not anymore with those shitty buttons
