RG35XXSP Review: King Clamshell

Anbernic’s new RG35XXSP is a rare feat in the budget handheld space, in that it combines excellent performance, hardware, and software into one package, with very few compromises. In this video we’ll take a look at my past several days with the device and why I think it’s a no-brainer for clamshell retro handheld enthusiasts.

This was a review unit sent to me by the manufacturer. All opinions are my own, they did not see this review ahead of time, and no money was exchanged in any way.
