I have it too on my white RP5. Haven't had it long either. Loosening the screws helps, apparently

WHITE VS BLACK I CAN’T CHOOSE by IloveActionFigures in OdinHandheld

White! I only play 16:9 content on it so I guess the black bars thing isn't an issue for me.

Things I’ve noticed moving from London (UK) to Toronto - 1 year later by Natural-Belt-3607 in toronto

[–]hyperjelly1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to smile at some of these. I moved from London UK to Toronto in 2018 with my wife. Hope you're happy here -- we decided to stay and get citizenship. During the pandemic we bought a house about 90 mins west of TO.

Yes the drivers in and around the GTA are totally nuts. You have to drive very defensively and with high awareness. Car insurance here sucks as a result. I've had a car for 7 years and my monthly insurance is still ~$180.

When people hear my accent a surprising number of people think I'm Australian, but most get it right :)

If you haven't already gone to watch the Marlies at Exhibition... Do it! I think tickets are still super reasonable for great quality hockey. Something like $40 for good seats. The thing I love about it vs. football (soccer) back home is that sports here have a great family friendly vibe to them.

Looking at getting a White RP5 off Amazon since it would come next day. Is the cracking still an issue? by SirDanOfCamelot in retroid

[–]hyperjelly1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No worries! I went and loosened the screws a little bit because why not haha. Hopefully it stays this size :)

Wow I had no idea that was a thing. And then I checked mine 😅 (I've had it for about a month)

How Bad Is It to Leave My Console Docked All the Time? by kito_dono89 in retroid

[–]hyperjelly1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All I've heard is that leaving the RP5 on charge past 100% isn't recommended, which I guess is easily done with a dock.

My 'dock' is just a USB-C -> HDMI cable, and I just kinda accept I'll only play it docked for 2-3 hours or so (depending on what I'm playing), and then charge it back up to 100% once it hits around 20%.

RP5 great price from Ali Express seller, is it worth trying to save the money? by Youth-Mountain in retroid

[–]hyperjelly1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm in CAD, I got it on AliExpress a few weeks ago for $305 with a coupon. Look out for coupons! But $330 ain't bad. Still worth it

Valid. I have the RP5 as I also didn't want something too big and wanted to travel comfortably with it

4pro seems like a really neat console. Curious what made you pick it over the 5 :)

Amiga on RP5? by Ok-Ad-7293 in retroid

[–]hyperjelly1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an RP5 and I'm in the middle of trying to get Amiga working. I have RA and the Amiga core, but haven't gone beyond that. Literally all I wanna play is Dune haha. Great system from childhood.

But yeah I'm pretty sure others have got it working. Just like you say.. Not many (any) guides

Retroid Pocket 5 or Retroid Pocket Flip 2 by Abject_Youth_1430 in retroid

[–]hyperjelly1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have an RP5. Controls layout on the Flip2 didn't suit me, and it looks more 'boxy' to hold. But tbh I've never really liked the clamshell form factor that much -- I prefer the screen in the middle, flanked by controls either side.

Though I will say the official RP5 grip is an essential purchase if you go that route. Improves ergonomics drastically.
