After spending time with Anbernic's RGSP, my hands-on review is now live. Mine got super delayed because I have a ton of other things I've been working on, so I'm sure not much in here will be a surprise to anyone. But if you're a fan of written articles, then this might tick that nostalgia box for you.
I spoke with Frysee, the lead developer of NextUI, and pvaibhav, who has been leading much of the H700/RG SP implementation, about what it takes to bring NextUI's firmware experience to Anbernic's latest clamshell effort. Frysee's dev unit arrived a good few days ago, so by the time you all have these in your hands, whatever tiny quirks will have been well ironed out.
Their takes on topics like boot times, display calibration, lid detection, feature parity with stock firmware, and the philosophy behind creating a true "pick up and play" experience was nice, and add a perspective. I hope at least some of you here enjoy it :)
Omg it’s in pearl blue that was my GBASP’s color growing up and one of my favorites since 😭 I already have a Steam Deck but I’d be lying if this didn’t seem tempting.
It's so cheap and so portable. It doesn't really compete with the Steam Deck. You can take it places you would never take a Steam Deck.
yep it's perfect for this. especially on like public transit and such
Yeah, this is really tempting. If I didn't already have my Steam Deck, Switch 2, and Ayn Thor Pro, I would definitely buy this!
