Very good console. The processing is very good for the price and the screen is huge. It’s fun to play games from older consoles, but I mostly use the device for streaming, either through my PC with Steam Link or through xCloud. Important: Unfortunately, GeForce graphics no longer works on this device.

This handheld game console arrived faster than I expected and in perfect condition. I couldn’t be happier.

This is a 100% honest review: the Anbernic RG556 is without a doubt the best retro handheld system you can buy. Period. My only regret is not buying one sooner.

I ordered the Anbernic RG556 on Black Friday and just received it today, December 9th. That’s pretty fast overseas delivery! I haven’t turned it on yet, but I’m really looking forward to it.

It arrived and tested, but the shipping fee was paid and the purchase was not specified.

Product received… It was great and had no problems. The only issue is that the SD card worked once, and when I tried to add games, it never worked again. It seems the SD card is of poor quality, as I have different types of CD cards that work without any problems transferring or adding data, and I used them years ago. This is the first time I’ve seen such poor quality CD cards, and the card was priced separately from the device.

It arrived in perfect condition and is exactly as described. You have to fiddle around with it for the games, but it’s well worth it…

It took a little longer at customs, but it arrived well packaged and it’s a really great device that I’m very happy with. It even came with a protective glass screen protector… Great, so I didn’t have to spend extra money on that. All in all, great.

Very happy with my purchase, highly recommended

Everything’s great, the console is amazing and the seller is 10/10. No problems at customs at all. However, when the post office delivered it, I had to pay €9 in customs fees.

I received a damaged console. It took over a month to receive a refund. Negative experience.

The console arrived three weeks late because it was held up in customs. Upon delivery, I had to pay an additional €50 in import tax, which I hadn’t been informed about.

High quality, it performs everything you would expect.

After a previous delivery issue where the local courier lost my product, this second time I ordered everything arrived perfectly and ahead of schedule. This handheld is a marvel in terms of ergonomics, screen, and emulation. In the short time I’ve been using it, I wholeheartedly recommend it. Carefully consider its capabilities before buying so that you, like me, can be highly satisfied. As a mini-review from a gamer, here are the most important points: The screen is beautiful. The D-pad is much better than the reviews mention. The ABXY buttons feel even better than those on the Nintendo Switch. Holding the console feels great thanks to its shape and light weight.

Very good, excellent game console

The item was exactly as described and in perfect condition. There was a slight learning curve to get ROMs loaded into the individual emulators. The screen is beautiful.

Great console, we already love it and have barely scratched the surface of what it can do!

Arrived early, asf. 10/10, can complain. This runs almost all GameCube games at 2x-3x, a good number of 3DS games, and most PS2 games. PSP games run at around 3x-4x. You can install games on it yourself using RomPedia and Zip7, which you can get from Aptoide and comes pre-installed. You don’t need a PC. Very comfortable, and the joysticks feel good with some Switch grips I bought here for a dollar. I would get a console mask so you don’t see fingerprints all the time. The case was $5 here too. The games on the 250GB SD card are a bit middling, but they give you a decent SD card (it’s not really cheap) so you can remove and install whatever you want. Pokémon runs at 2x easily, and I play WWE 12 on Wii, which runs smoothly.

Exactly as described. ADD IT. I can finally play my games. I’ve been wanting to play forever. Shipping was fast.

I love this thing! It fits my hands perfectly and is actually more durable than I expected. Great color, too.
