just upgraded to this beautiful RG35XX pro!

I legitimately wanna know who will purchase this whether it’s on a payment plan or outright I just would like to have an actual number of who actually is buying this device at this price.

I made some simple scripts that let you easily enable/disable battery protection (charging limit) on the RP G2.

Features:

• Pause charging at 80% (customizable to whatever you want)
• Resume charging at 70% (customizable to whatever you want)
• Works even when device is powered off (based on my testing)

easy to use: just go to Settings → Handheld Settings → Advanced → "Run script as Root" and run the script.

⚠️ Your Mileage May Vary

I hope the guide in the GitHub repo is clear enough! Let me know if you try it out.

I recently picked up the A8 from Microcenter to try it out and I’m shocked with how much I like it. It’s pretty much on par with the Go 2 and feels like a better Go S.

It’s almost the same weight as a Go S except with the upgraded Z2E, way quieter fans, and a much better battery. It’s shocking how much lighter and more comfortable it is to hold than my Go 2.

I also dualbooted the A8 with Bazzite (used the Steamdeck version and it works perfectly).

Highly debating selling my Go 2 and keeping the A8.

Hello, I've been thinking of parting ways with my New 3DS XL and PS Vita. I have a good collection of handhelds but at one point I'd like to get another one. I don't use the 3DS or the PS Vita as much as I used to and would like to know which would be the better device to get.

I was basically looking at the AYN Thor Lite because of the clamshell design. I have really fell in love with this device but don't know if I should get it. The 3DS is an amazing handheld and also the PS Vita but I feel like I have too many handhelds that I won't use. Which would be your recommendation? Is the AYN Thor Lite the better one to get or no, and is there other better devices that can beat the performance and cheaper and is it the only best Dual Screen device?

Handhelds I have:

1. Legion Go S- basically covers everything I need.

2. Nintendo Switch 2 - for Nintendo exclusives.

3. Nintendo Switch Lite - for smaller games and couch gaming. Plus I might give this to my son.

4. New 3DS XL - great device with the 3DS feature but I don't know if I should continue playing it.

5. PS Vita - great for PlayStation and PS Vita games, but basically the Legion Go S can do all of that.

6. Anbernic RG35XX-H - great for Game Boy games and older consoles.

The first/ most important mod for my GBA refurbishment project has arrived. funnyplaying OTA screen, went for this over an IPS for the grid lines and battery life. i am planning on keeping the battery compartment as is, I have Costco alkaline AAs and picked up four NiMH Eneloop batteries to swap out, gonna try out the new Lithium AA cells too, especially if I can charge them with my 18650's and 21700's

Is there any way to fix this?

I need help deciding if I should sell my Steam Deck LCD to buy an Ayn Odin Portal. I mostly play on GeForce Now since the Steam Deck can no longer handle heavy titles, and it’s way too bulky to carry around outside. I also have a Mangmi Air X for lower-end games. I’d appreciate some recommendations.

Hey,

I wanted your opinion:
I found a Legion Go Gen 1 for €500, with a 1TB microSD, charging cable, memory card + protective case, still 2 years of warranty, in very good condition and safe and trusted.

Do you think it’s worth it at that price?
