I discovered this wonderful world of retro handhelds about a month ago and dove in deeply, now having 6 devices. There are some comments about what I refer to as different device “classes” later in the reivew. I am comparing this Powkiddy X55 to the anbernic rg40XXh as these are the only two linux devices that I have:–Out of the box experience–(winner) rg40xxh – this was the first handheld I got so I already have a fond recollection of it just for the quick delivery of nostalgia and gameplay. The software worked just fine and I was playing Crash Bandicoot on PS1 within a couple of minutes and enjoying it.X55 – Again it was ready to go out of the box but there was a particular slowness to basic navigation of the device, moving between menus and sometimes emulators. Once in a game it was good, execept that here I started with PSP Gran Turismo and it didn’t run so well. More on that later.–Display–(tie based on my particular preferences) I’m going to call this one a wash. Both are vivid with lovely saturated colors. Yes, this X55 has a bigger screen and higher resolution but as I’ve concluded that I’ll probably leave PSP, gamecube and above to more capable devices I have, and that I prefer to play lower systems in as near to original aspect ratio as possible rather than using widescreen hacks, the wider screen isn’t much of a factor for me.–Controls–(winner) X55: The triggers feel a little funky where the lower trigger is inset from the upper to a degree that makes it clunky to move your finger for example from L1 to L2. But the face buttons, d-pad and analog sticks are all just fine and compared to the anbernic, even better. I was playing 1942 and Contra III this morning and the precision of control was quite effective, with quick response and the face buttons can take a rapid fire pounding.–Loaded Games–(winner) X55: While both units came with plenty of games, the X55 had way more that I recognized and was interested in diving right into. For example the anbernic doesn’t have any under any of the n1ntendo systems whereas the X55 has quite a few for most, though neither have any Mario games, you’ll have to source those yourself.rg40xxh – I did notice right away once playing a game that the analog sticks were rather imprecise. The d-pad is a little better but still not as good as the X55. The triggers, though smaller, do feel decidedly better on the anbernic though.–Comfort–(winner) X55: Other than the triggers, the rest of the deivce is quite comfortable for me to hold on to and play for extended periods. The Anbernic isn’t bad, it just lacks the well-done grips built into the X55, so it has a flat back which paired with its smaller size and slickish texture makes it a little squirrely for me to hold onto at times.–X55 performance fix (after which PSP Gran Turismo ran well…see, I told you I’d get back to it)–Following a guide from Retro Game Corps (google it) I flashed a current version of the rocknix OS onto a higher quality SD card than came with the device and after replacing the stock SD with that better one with the upgraded software, the device doesn’t feel sluggish any more. I’ve done this kind of thing a time or two so it only took a few minutes but the guide is detailed yet not complex. Jump in, you can do it. Just keep in mind with this approach you’ll need to either reacquire game roms from other sources (recommended) or copy all those games back over from one of the stock cards onto your better card and that can take a while because reading them off the stock card is SLOW, but that is also the point, the system trying to read them during game play would also be slow with those stock cards. Upgrade is worth the effort.–My Anbernic isn’t going anywhere–I still reach for it routinely as it has its own charm and is very playable. It is smaller and more pockeatble than the X55 and you’re really not giving up that much for the portability convenience if that is a priority for you. I just give the objective-as-possible edge to the X55 and suspect I’ll be spending a lot of time with it.–Device Classes–The short about device classes is that linux ones tend to be paired with lower performance specs whereas android and windows are generally higher. Linux devices commonly come with games preloaded whereas android and windows typically do not. They are different experiences in terms of setup and navigation. Linux tend to be more plug and play though there are plenty of things you can do to tweak the experience. Android and Windows have an arguably cumbersome roadmap before you are playing games. That isn’t strictly true as you can for example just download one emulator on its own and a rom and be playing pretty quickly but getting all the emulators and games together and under a front end software that brings it all together can be a chore.
