While waiting for the RG40XXH handheld I ordered from AliExpress to arrive, I impulsively bought the #RG505 from Amazon since it was one of the few that would arrive next-day and it seemed like it may fit my requirements of being pocketable and having quiet buttons. Plus, it’s OLED!

Well, I got it yesterday and it seemed like something I may want to keep. I was happy with the buttons and the overall build quality but it was barely pocketable. However, I thought having the OLED panel would be worth the bulk… until the sun went down and the mura effect on the screen revealed itself.

I probably should have expected this as I had the same problem with the RG503 I tried out a year or two ago and they both use the same OLED panel.

Anyway, I’ll be sending this back as I wouldn’t be able to enjoy playing it in bed.

This was a learning experience, though, as I now know exactly how pocketable a device of this size is. And I also realized the Switch Lite is technically pocketable…..

Перше знайомство із buildroot пройшло успішно, і фінальний образ без проблем завантажився на Anbernic RG505.

Питання тільки в тому, чи дійсно я готовий розбиратись в тому, як додати апаратне прискорення... Обсяг роботи колосальний, а це навіть не мій пристрій 😆

Hoy me ha llegado la consola RG505 que compré ayer en AliExpress 😊.

Después la he actualizado con GammaOS (basado en LineageOS e infinitamente más optimizado) y ahora a jugar a OutRun 2006 😊, ya que PSP va simplemente perfecto 😄. Será su sustituta.
