Retro Handhelds | Don't Buy the R40S: A Frustrating 1:1 Handheld Review by Zu @retrohandhelds | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
👉Long-time Discord member and Patron Jaylash thought it would be fun to buy the first RGB30 knock-off and send it to me for review. I didn't have my hopes up at all, but they were still dashed by this slipshod excuse for a handheld. There's no conceivable reason why you should buy one at the current price when the RGB30 still exists, but at least you can all have fun watching me get increasingly frustrated as everything possible fails in this true e-waste review!
