Great system but difficult to configure

I’ve had plenty of experience of tinkering with emulation on the Raspberry Pi and RG 351V but Ive never worked on Android so thought I’d give it a go. The comfort and layout of the system is amazing but it does take some patience with the OS and the Retro app is good but there’s a few roms that can be iffy with performance. If you have the patience and not itching to have everything configured perfectly in a day or two, go for this. If you just want a plug and play device with a cleaner OS, go for the Anbernic RG 351V.

GREAT LOOKING HANDHELD BUT A PAIN TO SET UP

If you don't mind tinkering to get it perfect then you'll love it... too many options to play. Android 6 is slow, game emulation is mixed bag. N64 plays well, dreamcast so so. Soul Caliber has a lot of flickering. Updating to android 8.1 improves play and speed but it's not easy to implement

Love it

Only downside is right joystick is digital. I have considered other handhelds though, this one felt superior with built in wifi, bluetooth, android os, stacked shoulder buttons. I can even plug in hdmi with a bluetooth controller and play retro games with my friend. I also enjoy the retro look of device, something you can't get with other handhelds.

Amazed

Wasn’t expecting too much for the price but plays everything so well. N64, psp and PlayStation 1 are all perfect. Yes there is some setting up to do but YouTube videos are a godsend for a novice like me and then it’s all so easy. Would recommend this to anyone.

Better than expected.

Shame about the operating system being Android - has all the trappings of a smart phone. Retro gaming is great if you're tight on time. Also, this is bloody cheap considering the software that is available (multiple games systems).

Very happy with purchase. Plenty of guides online to get you started and it doesn't take long before you are up and running.
