Best Retro Handheld

Recently bought a R36S and very impressed for the £21 I paid. Can confirm as per above changing OS is very straight forward and painless. My 4 hour flight felt about an hour I was that engrossed!

£21? Where. Cheapest I can see is Aliexpress at £33 inc.
Tempting for Saturn but my RG35XX H can do basic Saturn.
 
anyone got a Trimui Smart Pro? wonder if its the samething as the R36S but more gamegear design lol

Edit: sod it gonna get one, only 49quid

There seems to be so many of these now but I’m lost as to which one to consider

I’d be wanting to look at gba/tbf games, of course if it can do psp as well that be a bonus
 
I'm eyeing up the anbernic rg556 at the moment. I have a really small Gameboy like anbernic but I just don't get on with the controls.

I've also been looking at using a steamdeck or something like a legion go bust the price I'm not sure I can justify cuerently

I eneded up ordering the 556. Should be here next week. I know I'm getting old when I say this, but I think I want / need the bigger screen too...
 
Just tried to fire up my RG35XXH, aaaand the SD card is dead. Probably used it 4-5 times....

Code:

Going to use this as an opportunity to try out some additional firmwares. Any recommendations? By all accounts Stock + mod seems to be flavour of the month?

Also does anyone know if the stock ROM contains everything from factory?

Stock firmware downloaded from Anbernic site includes everything, even the ROMs.
