  • I also have the RG35XX-SP, I have come to prefer the custom firmware MuOS which has an image for each Anbernic RGXX handheld. They have decent themes.

    Scrappy is a great MuOS app that gets all the box-art images, all you need is a free ScreenScraper account user/password.

    Depending on the size of your TF (microSD), there are rom sets on archive.org, like Tiny Best Set Go! & Done Set, I just downloaded the RetroAcheivements set from Archive which has a 128gb & 256gb option. RetroAcheivements is a cross-platform account you can get pop-up acheivements for most retro games when Wi-Fi is on.

    The Anbernic devices normally come with the Kioxia TF cards which aren’t as brittle as the no name ones, however the roms that Anbernic are sending pre-installed seem to have the biggest Nintendo games ommited. I just got my 4th Anbernic delivered yesterday. MuOS handles dual TF cards well, it’s common to have TF1 for just the OS & TF2 for the games/saves.

    I predominantly play RomHacks, Super MarioMon (GBA) by Alphard just came out the other day. Pokemon Unbound is great too.























  • I’ve been using the Nothing Phone 2a+ since the 3G shutdown, it’s okay but a little bare bones compared to Xiaomi devices, which have significantly larger userbases.

    Aside from the cheaper chipset, I mainly miss auto-HDR, I didn’t realise how much of my phone use was the OS supporting HDR when the applications didn’t themselves.

    Like I said it’s okay, but still probably my lowest value phone I’ve owned in the last decade, after having enjoyed highly competitive imports.

    I also miss Dolby Atmos, which worked very well even on my Anker Soundcore earbuds.
