RG40XX V Handheld Game Consoles RG40XXV Retro Game Console Built-in 64G TF Card RG 40XXV Portable Gaming Console Linux 64-bit System Supports WiFi Bluetooth HD and TV Output Black

Tough little device
Unit was dropped from a 6ft shelf during charging on to a concrete floor and not only did the game still run but no cracks on the case and screen was still intact. Runs also very well for the size and games it runs. My daughter will love it!

Excellent emulator handheld — my personal go-to!
Anbernic has a ton of these handheld emulator devices on the market now. Some people get annoyed by this, but I would always rather have more options than fewer, and the 40XXV is a home-run in my book.It’s rocking the same H700 Allwinner CPU you find in all of their XX devices, which will play every system from Atari all the way up through Dreamcast/PSP, though not the entire library of those systems. You probably won’t want to use this for PSP due to the screen’s aspect ratio, but for DC and below it’s outstanding (I hear some heavy DC games don’t run smoothly on this thing, but every DC game I’ve tried has worked fine). The controls are fantastic — and this is coming from someone who has about a dozen of these kinds of devices from different companies. The D-pad is sublime — my favorite of them all — and the face buttons feel great to use. Even the angling of the triggers are great.A lot of people whine about this thing having a single joystick. Personally I think it’s awesome because 1) I’m not a huge fan of FPSes anyway, which is the main use for a second stick, and 2) the systems this plays either use 1 joystick (MAME, N64), or no joystick at all. Even PS1 rarely used the sticks. Yes, the out-of-box (OOB) stick has the famous Anbernic cardinal snapping issue, but installing the latest build of MuOS or Knulli eliminates this problem. I can understand someone saying that the OOB experience should be better for something that costs money, but if you’re seriously into this hobby at all you know that custom firmware (CFW) is the name of the game… it is what it is.The screen is a smidge under 4″, which is big, bright, and great for anything you want to run on it. 4:3, 3:2, 8:7, even vertical arcade, all run great once you tinker with Retroarch a little. Sound is loud as heck at first and the rocker appears to need individual presses to raise/lower the volume (i.e., press and hold only registers one press, at least on mine), but that’s a minor gripe. Not sure if that’s the device or MuOS, which is the CFW I use on it.Like most of these devices, some tinkerage is required to get a great experience and a lot of times the “value” judgments for these things are based on how close you can force it to get to that “perfect” (for the individual user) experience you’re after. For me, the chunky vertical form factor, big bright screen, single stick, amazing buttons, ability to run some of the best CFWs out there, and nice blue color get it done. Half the reason you get these things is to mess around under the hood to see what you can make it do, and this one is close to perfect for me.

Ships with corrupt disc. Do your research first.
Such a disappointment on Christmas. Worked for an hour, then stopped. My kid handled it okay, but I’m furious bc after some quick online research I learned this is a common problem. I could “flash the drive” which would involve buying additional items, but so wrong to buy a product on Amazon for 90 bucks that ships needing to be fixed right out of the box. YOU flash the damn disc BEFORE selling it.
