Another handheld I most likely won't buy? Sure, I'll watch the whole thing.

'Toby is not going to fill that empty void in his heart...' 😂

When Russ asks me to get a snack and a drink I always say "yeah man, I wanna do it"
-
Sounds like a good time to make that update video on the TrimUI Smart Pro!
-
I finally bit the bullet and bought a Anbernic RG35XX H after a year of watching your videos and making a decision. Just received it today. Your setup guide was a fantastic help.

"On the younger side... childhood systems being the N64" gave me a chuckle.
-
The use case way of looking at this device is super helpful and well done
-
0:35 okay, that blue is amazing

The thumbnail currently says 400X not 40XX just so you know Russ
-
I enjoy the personalities, adds more context to the review, handheld, and the type of person who might want to buy it. Wonderful and entertaining job Russ!

I actually think I’ve developed a real addiction to these handhelds…

was not expecting to see spamton- err, toby on this channel at all xD awesome and informative review as always!

Dude, this is an amazing format! I wasn’t even looking at this device as I adore the rg505 and tempted by the rg556. This is a really great format and informative for various users. Well done!

I really appreciate those character cards. Telling a story makes it more thrilling to watch your video. Thanks
-
I just bought a Trimui Smart Pro for GBA and Snes and when I saw the RG40XX H I was "aaaaw noooooo" ... and then I saw your video and I am happy again. Very instructive, thank you !
-
I've never felt so understood as when you explained Clyde
-
Nadie hace las reviews tan completas como tú. Tus vídeos son la caña 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
-
Always happy to see your Vids pop-up. If not, just a reason to give me to Watch the intro. But definitely always love these type of scenario videos. Peace!

Thanks Russ, I love your analysis and honesty. Have a nice day.
