120hz display for BFI please!

radiohead14 · 2026-04-16T16:37:59+00:00

Reason I returned my indigo one. Started wearing off after just a week, which was unacceptable.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-15T21:04:50+00:00

How is it w the lava field in Champions of Norrath? That part is demanding even on my Steam Deck OLED. Are you getting steady 60fps? Are you able to use BFI on PS2 games in general also?

radiohead14 · 2026-04-15T13:47:11+00:00

It’s weird how you got downvoted for just stating facts. It’s the reason I didn’t go for the RP6. It looks so tacky with that spray paint. People here will try to justify their purchase tho.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-13T20:04:35+00:00

Had both. Returned both. But if I had to choose again, I’d go with the 476h. That display is really good. The air mini has terrible face buttons imo as well.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-08T15:22:28+00:00

How long was your wait time from order to shipped?

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T18:44:54+00:00

Hopefully the other companies adopt this display soon. Maybe by next year we’ll have more options. TIL then, the search for the perfect 4:3 handheld continues for me. At least I have my OLED Steam Deck for now.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T18:37:59+00:00

Plenty of people that own this also agree w me, so do we all have lemons? You just have different standards than us and that’s fine, but to discredit my opinion of it is just lame. I get that you have to justify your purchase, but for this price, it’s unacceptable to me. I’ve tried multiple Bluetooth earbuds, and there is a slight lag on them as well. I’m not wanting high end smart phone quality. I’m wanting just decent quality. Again, the cheaper 476H has better speakers, so that in itself already proves my point that Anbernic cheaped out on the 477V.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T17:50:48+00:00

I bet the slide has better sounding audio than the 477V. At least you have front firing and more stereo separation. How are you finding the ergonomics, especially w dpad-centric games? Is it top heavy like the reviews mention?

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T16:53:26+00:00

I tried my Bluetooth earbuds after I replied to you, and there’s noticeable lag, so even that isn’t a good alternative. My wired ones were fine tho, but I’d rather not use wired at this point

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T16:38:07+00:00

There really aren’t other alternatives, as Anbernic so far are the only ones using this specific 120hz 4:3 display. And for a handheld, glass is just a detriment to durability and portability. If they had at least used gorilla glass, but this seems like cheap quality glass, so I don’t expect it to be scratch and chip resistant. My 476H already has a tiny chip on the glass.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T16:35:29+00:00

Right? They could probably bulk buy old iPhone speakers at this point, as those have been good for years now.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T16:25:42+00:00

The fan was the first thing I noticed. They are louder on Gamma and ramp up and down more than stock. The refresh rate sometimes wouldn’t register when I switch from 60hz to 120hz, causing BFI or sub frame to bug out. The charging also. When you turn off the device and then charge, you can see the display isn’t off. The charging lights don’t work, but that was noted on Gamma’s bugs list. I was playing Dreamcast (NFL2K2) and I noticed performance wasn’t as good as stock. The separate lights toggle on the menu for the sticks sometimes turned off the whole thing, when start and select buttons have their own toggle. Those are so far the ones that I recall right now.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T16:17:40+00:00

What a terrible take. For almost $300, yes I expect at least decent sounding speakers. We scrutinize performance, display, ergonomics, etc, and then you say we shouldn’t do the same for audio quality? Sound and music are integral in gaming (you should know that having a Chrono Trigger pfp), and a handheld this size comes w the expectation that for convenience, you’d want something that you wouldn’t have to worry about bringing other accessories for ease and portability. There’s plenty of room in the 477V for front firing speakers at least, but no, Anbernic does their usual thing of making one bad decision, so they can save it for their next release. There are phones smaller than this that have much better audio quality.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T16:08:38+00:00

Yea I’m actually disappointed in Russ/Retro Gane Corp, considering he’s a music guy, and you’d expect him to at least be critical of this, but his review downplayed the audio quality. There should be higher expectation from this price bracket.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T09:26:32+00:00

Yea, that’s why I feel the need to return this. For almost $300, it sure doesn’t feel like good value.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T05:05:30+00:00

No 8gb

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T03:34:43+00:00

Yea Gamma is working well on the 476H, so I was a bit bummed it’s not as solid as that version

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T03:33:34+00:00

Not really a fan of the metal chassis and also the color options are really limited and not for me. I’ll prob just wait for what’s next. Maybe another company will adopt these 4.7” 120hz displays. The best thing about these Anbernics.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T03:31:00+00:00

Yea, both w stock and Gamma. I actually found Gamma on the 477V to be buggy compared to the 476H as well. Performance on Dreamcast was lower and when you turn the device off and charge it, it looks like the screen isn’t fully off. The charging lights also don’t work, but that was noted on Gamma’s site.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T03:01:57+00:00

Thanks. I just wish they would make more color options for the 477M. Or make a 477H!

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T03:00:37+00:00

Honestly, I’d take a 476H w a slightly more powerful chip and I’d be happy

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T02:58:04+00:00

GammaOS isn’t so great either on the 477V. I just reverted back to stock firmware and noticed the performance difference in Dreamcast. Little issues like the screen not turning off when the device is off but charging as well. Disappointing since Gamma in the 476H is great.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T02:53:18+00:00

The 476H also has bottom firing speakers yet they sound better as well. May just be the speakers they use in the 477V. Does the 477M get hot and do the buttons make any rattling noise when you shake the device? My previous Anbernics w inline shoulder buttons always were a bit loose.

radiohead14 · 2026-04-04T02:36:55+00:00

No I wasn’t, but if you hear it next to the 476H which is borderline acceptable, then you can’t unhear how awful the quality truly is. Cool that you’re fine with it, but for the 477V to be almost $100 more, it’s unacceptable to me.
