Wrong memory
There was 32gb memory insterted with 21 games from which 11 was settings. So its false advertisement, no 64gb memory and obviously no 4400+ pre installed games.

Really great retro game handheld console.
This is a great game console and I played already hours on it.This one comes preloaded with over a hundred of games already on a exchangeable SD-card, but you can get bigger SD cards and just transfer the games over to a new card and add more from your own library on you PC or Mac. It also has dual operating system, with Linux or Android running in the background, depending which games you want to play.It fits great in my hand and so far the buttons have been very responsive and it is easy to play hours on end with this console. The battery also runs for several hours before you need to recharge, but it might take about 2-3 hours for a full recharge.The Linux system is installed on a second SD-Card and so you can even install you own version if you find a better on on the web. So far I had no trouble and left it as it is.Overall this is a solid build retro game console that is easily expandable and can provide hours, days and years of fun.

¡Una verdadera maravilla!
La consola hasta cierto punto es muy adictiva, si eres de las personas que sale mucho y anda de aquí para allá, es muy práctica ya que solo la puedes guardar en tu bolsillo. La gran cantidad de juegos es más que suficiente y con la disponibilidad de poner una SD más grande y agregar juegos libremente la convierte en una gran consola retro. La calidad es muy buena, el plástico se siente de calidad, los botones, la cruceta y los joysticks son una maravilla. El audio es bueno aunque si subes todo el volumen, en ciertos juegos se pudiera distorcionar. En cuanto la batería, durará de 5 a 6 hrs. dependiendo del tipo de juego y la configuración que tengas en cuanto a brillo y volumenEn cuanto al SO, éste es muy práctico y las opciones respecto a los juegos son bastantes, desde los filtros en cada emulador, el sistema de guardado e incluso te permite grabar la pantalla mientras juegas. Los emuladores están muy bien adaptados al SO y cuento a rendimiento, solo algunos han presentado detalles principalmente en PSP, en cuanto a los demás todo fluido. No he probado mucho directamente con Android ya que el SO de Anbernic me es más que suficiente para cubrir las necesidades con todos los juegos y las funciones propias son adecuadas cuando solo quieres sentarte a jugar.Simplemente estoy satisfecho con el producto y lo recomiendo ampliamente.

I hope you're tech savvy
Get comfy, you're gonna be here awhile.The Device: This thing is pretty cool, not gonna lie to you, it can handle almost every game I've tried in it up to PSP. It can also tackle some PS2 games, 3DS, and Wii-U games through Android, but the performance on those are hit and miss.The Battery: Pretty good I'd say. But you ARE NOT gonna get 6 hours of constant play out of it, you are dreaming. 3 hours is more realistic. Battery life depends on operating system, game and emulator you're running. Each setting you have set will have an effect on this as well.My unit lasts for about 3 hours of Valkyria Chronicles 2 for PSP on ArkOS Linux-running with x4 PSP resolutionWiFi and Bluetooth: They both work and you can use them at the same time, but the range is total garbage. The device does have a normal plug on the board for an aftermarket antenna though, you would just have to figure out where to put one.The Touchscreen: To my knowledge this only works on the Android side, it supports at least 4 simultaneous finger taps. I think its more than enough for the emulators.HDMI & OTG: I don't use these, I'm going to assume they work though. HDMI just defeats the entire purpose of the device and OTG is only useful for cameras and flash drives here.[Update: Both operating systems will recognize a USB keyboard and mouse, and an Xbox One controller natively if you connect them through the OTG port using a USB-3 to USB-C adapter. This is extremely good for you if you plan on trying to develop your own software for the device]The Loudspeaker: I can only handle about 50% volume on it but the sound is alright for what it is-it is very fittingly named.The Dual SD card slot provides a few options as far as data storage.You can stick to the Linux OS and use TF2 as your game and data storage, switching to Android periodically to move files or you can use Android exclusively and use the TF2 card as raw data storage.Note that Android cannot properly address the TF1 slot and the card in this slot won't be accessed. If you want to mess with anything on there, you would have to swap it to the TF2 slot. -(A "TF" card and an "SD" card are one in the same. TF is what SD used to be) -(The device supports maximum 512GB card in the "TF2" slot).It is recommended to replace both SD cards it comes with as the quality of them is unidentifiable.I am using this card, found here on AmazonPNY XLR8 512GB Gaming Class 10 U3 V30 microSDXC Flash Memory Card - 100MB/s, Class 10, U3, V30, A2, 4K UHD, Full HD, UHS-I, micro SDThe Buttons and A-Sticks: The front facing buttons feel fine, the button return is good. The Analog sticks seem good, they're just tiny and I'm not used to it.I'm not a fan of the back 4 buttons-these were manufactured with a "swivel" feature that makes them a bit sloppy. It makes me feel like they're fragile but they're made that way. I suspect the added slop prevents them from breaking as you will be using them for grip at some point.The F button is hardcoded into the device's firmware and can't be modified easily.Operating Systems -Android 11, its about what you would expect, it's primarily for running the heavier emulators as the Linux OS doesn't have native support for them. Also very useful for file management. It is now possible to get Google Play Services running, although compatibility with GSF games has been somewhat poor.This Android firmware is built with controller mapping software to handle the button features, which works okay on the actual emulators, but it's not customizable enough for me. You basically have 2 control schemes. {1} Your Game is already compatible with controllers. Or {2} Your Game has a virtual joystick and buttons (you can move the 'buttons' around). You can set it up for one or the other, you cannot disable it. What I need is basically AntiMicro for Android.[To explain, the mapping has "Xbox" mode, which from what I gather relies on Xinput and can't be edited the way I want or "Switch" mode, where you can move the button spaces. Somewhere between these two functions the D-pad registers as KEYBOARD_UP/L/R/D and are always active, which is hard to work with. Disabling a button seems to eliminate it from the OS entirely](Press "Build Version" under "About" in Android settings x5 to enable Developer Mode)(WiFi-Bluetooth tethering <Android> does not seem to work, but all other Bluetooth and WiFi functions seem to work just fine) -Linux- This is a modified version of Emu-ELEC with Anbernic logos plastered everywhere and the red color scheme. This side of things can handle everything up to PSP, although some PSP games have poor performance issues. The Linux side runs Emu-ELEC as a front-end, and Retroarch in the back-end. So controller functions are native.I really want Lakka running on this device, replacing the Android firmware on the eMMC and making both TF slots mass data storage. That's what I would do, unfortunately Lakka.tv does not have a specific build for this device.A lot of the game covers and stuff are regrettably not present when you first turn it on, but you get what you pay for and that can be fixed.-for free too, I might add.(You are not supposed to be paying someone for Emu-ELEC, but with the price tag on this item compared to a bare Rockchip RK3566, it is clear you are primarily paying for the device)Moonlight Game Streaming: I don't care for it, I find the security measures extreme and the performance not all that great. Use Steam Link instead if you want to stream games from your PC.Linux or Android? Both?: Yeah, get the model with both. The Android side of things allows you to file manage as well as gives you access to more emulators. Some even perform better on certain games through Android then the Linux OS.Bonus: You might be wondering? Can I do stuff to the device? Absolutely. In my case I got rid of the standard Anbernic Linux OS and installed ArkOS to it instead. It is much cleaner and more customizable than the stock OS, in addition to actually having updates available, If Android in its current form isn't working for you, Look at Black Seraphs custom Android firmware.I'm about 95% sure you can also change the boot logo, but I haven't gotten that far yet.I also opened the device and slipped a wrist strap around one of the screw holes, because it's not very easy to hold on to. These things honestly need wrist straps.Dust covers for unused ports, aftermarket cases (Otterboxes? Hmm), and CUSTOM BUTTONS would all be interesting things to think about.The device turns the screen off from the power button like a phone on both operating systems, mine lasted over a day like that.There is a strange quirk it has where it gets warmer when the game is running but no actions are taken, than when you're actually doing stuff on said game. Because of this, I recommend at least hitting the power button on yours if you need to put it down for a while. The game will persist but the power consumption will plummet like a good sleep mode.It may get hot, that is normal. Running an entire Nintendo64 from a device the size of a Gameboy takes a lot of work and you're gonna get a little heat. However, the cooler you can keep this thing, the longer it will last youDon't use a Samsung Fast Charger power block-Just Don't. Use a 1.5A power block. The fine print on the power block will guide you here. (Can't find one? The little white power bricks that ship with iPods and older iPhones are usually 1.5A)I was asked if this would be a good device for a child around 12-13. I'm not a parent, but my answer to that is a big fat nope.To fix any problems you might have with this thing, you are going to need patience, 2-3 years of experience in Retroarch and a good amount of tech at home-such as a USB-C cable with data pins and a SD card reader for your PC.REPLACEMENT PARTSBATTERY: -3.7V 705068 3500mAh Lithium Polymer ion Battery Rechargeable Polymer Battery Pack for RG35XX with JST 1.25m Connector Lithium Polymer -https://www.amazon.com/705068-3500mAh-Lithium-Rechargeable-Connector/dp/B0C2KQTXQ3/ref=sr_1_17?crid=38Z6KJ2HJAT52&keywords=replacement+rg353+battery&qid=1697680543&sprefix=replacement+rg353+battery%2Caps%2C72&sr=8-17Would I buy this again? No-instead I would opt for one of the larger/newer models. I'm not mad at the price tag on this though.

Perfect retro handheld

Good quality bang for your buck.
Pretty slick. I have a retro pi device that is similar in formula, but these Anbernic handhelds are steps ahead. No issues whatsoever. You get a ton of great games. It's made well. I'd keep an eye on Anbernic. These guys are slaying it.
