Will there be additional custom tax or tariffs since it's shipping from china?

I'm going to really recommend yall not go with this device. This model does not come with true analog sticks. The only reason I'd go with this device is if you want to play PSP games and don't care about any PS2, gamecube, or wii games. The T618 is powerful enough for PSP and N64 and even some saturn but not the newer games. The RG406V is the latest model of this device and it got MASSIVE upgrades. It was the first anbernic with true analog sticks instead of those cheapo switch joycon type sticks that are basically dpads. It also got upgraded to the T820 chipset which is able to play many 6th generation systems like ps2, wii, gamecube and 3ds. You also get a 960x720p screen where the 405v only has a 640x480 screen The 406V is just a huge upgrade over the 405V for only $50 more. For this Price at $95 it's ok, it'll play n64, PSP, and dreamcast and saturn games where the cheaper $40-$60 cannot play those full libraries. But honestly spend the extra $50 and get the 406v you will be glad you did. The difference in capabilities is enormous and those true analog sticks on the 406v make the 6th gen games like ps2, gamecube, and wii much better playing experiences, plus you really want at least 720p for 6th gen and up, 480p is fine for old retro games but it just isn't enough for modern games.

Would you buy a 406V over a Retroid Pocket 4 Pro though? Same price point.
