On top of the device you will find newly designed shoulder buttons, and this is because the device is considerably thinner than the previous model, so notable in fact that it feels like a whole new handheld and the reduction in size means reduction in weight, coming in at just 232g which is fairly light for a metal device. There is also the built-in screen controller mapping which we have seen in Anbernic’s recent Android handhelds. It works very well and definitely gives you the upper hand on games such as first person shooters! Benchmark Results and Comparison
So we can see that the RG505 performs roughly between up to three times as much as the RG353 series and up to twice as much as the RG552, let’s see how that transforms for emulator performance. Emulator Performance We have tuned the configuration for each installed game. The configuration files are stored in psp/ppsspp/PSP/SYSTEM/ on the EASYROMS partition of the SD card. That folder contains configuration files for other games you may choose to install in the future. Our configurations are based on those found at https://github.com/jserodio/rg351p-ppsspp-settings/. From here on is where the improvements have been made to the retro console. The first thing you will notice is the Aluminium Alloy casing available in Space Grey and Rose Gold. It gives the RG350M a real premium feel and look.PSP pushes the limit of what this kind of device can emulate, but these settings give you the best available experience. We ran the Antutu benchmark on a loop and got 5 hours 20 mins which is a decent time. Android Overview And last but not least we have a screen protector and some wipes for when applying it to your handheld. Overview of the RG353M You can show the menu used to alter these settings by pressing L2. GameBoy Set the screen colour to a light green, matching the original GameBoy display The 3.5” screen is a full IPS panel running at 640×480 resolution, an upgrade from the 320×240 found in its predecessor. The higher resolution means that retro games on older systems can be upscaled for improved visuals. And for the systems that run at higher resolutions, the visuals will not be squashed and make text easier to read for example. The display is protected by a Zero Distance OCA toughened glass cover.
The RG353M can run Android and or Linux, the Android OS is a little cumbersome to use with the tiny 3.5” touch screen, especially when typing, so I found myself using the linux OS because it’s just so easy to use and comes pre-setup straight out of the box. For both models of the retro handheld emulator, the Linux operating system is stored on the included 16GB micro SD card. There is a 64GB micro SD card also included which is used for game storage.The responsive and high-quality D-pad and buttons provide precise controls, giving you the competitive edge you need to dominate your games. The device also features a powerful 3500mAh battery that provides up to 8 hours of continuous gameplay, allowing you to enjoy your games without worrying about running out of power. You can update to the latest version of the installed Retroarch cores by going to Retroarch from the main menu, then selecting Online Updater -> Update Installed Cores.
The RG353M is available in two colours, Blue and Deep Purple. The Blue colour was a very popular colour on the past model. Which is your favourite? Let us know in the comments. RG353M Colours

Core A Core is an emulator that has been adapted to work with Retroarch. Emulator Using an emulator, your device pretends that it’s a different device. For instance, using the Yes, it’s slightly more compact and those with very large hands might feel a bit cramped while playing, but I had no problems at all. This small size reduction makes it far more portable, and the removal of the bezels make it that little bit more immersive. My first ever home console was the SEGA Mega Drive and again this works flawlessly, and because of the 4:3 display the game sits perfectly inside of the screen with bright saturated colours and nostalgic music coming from the speakers below. This is another console I found myself going to alot. To try a different emulator, see Hints -> Trying different cores/emulators in this guide. All retroarch cores Shaders
