I have a miyoo and I would highly recommend you copy the games over to a name brand micro SD as soon as you get it. For me they used the cheapest SD possible that would work and that equated to it workingfor 3 weeks then crashing and having to be reformatted. I ended up going down the rabbithole of upgrading the operating system and getting my own games since the micro SD could not be read (and thus games could not be copied) until it was reformatted
If you just want to buy something that you don't have to think about, copy the SD immediately so you don't have to spend hours of your time if it crashes.

Got a Miyoo Mini Plus a few months back for about $5 more than this. Great little unit... the card that comes with it is trash though and mine didn't even work. If you look on the Internet Archives there is something called "Done Set 3" and it is a huge collection of roms specifically curated for the Miyoo... Very very easy to choose what you want and just load up a new card with it. Comes with all the skins and themes and stuff for Miyoo and sets up a really useful folder structure.

My only complaint would be how small some of the fonts are on a screen that size once ya start loading up PS1 games.

The RG406H stands out as the stronger portable retro handheld, with a T820 chip that handles PS2, GameCube, and especially N64 better than cheaper H700 or A133 models. Its 4.3 inch 4:3 screen and controls suit classic systems well, and the compact size is easier to carry than the larger RG556. The RG556 leans more toward PSP play, with a great OLED display and 1080p upscaled PSP, but its wider body and less precise sticks make it less comfortable for some 3D games. Both benefit from a better microSD card and a fresh setup, since bundled cards are often unreliable.

Common Questions (4)

  • The RG556 has a nice AMOLED display and is especially strong for PSP, including 1080p upscaled PSP. The RG406H is still favored for 4:3 systems and portability, but the RG556's screen is the standout feature.

    FeistyNose3055ShrewdSnow237viper51989

  • The RG406H is the better pick for portability and controls. The RG556 is larger and wider, which makes it more unwieldy for portable play, while the RG406H has nicer controls and is easier to carry.

    FeistyNose3055ShrewdSnow237

  • Both can play up to PS2 and GameCube, but the RG406H is the safer choice for native-format play. The RG556 can handle some titles, yet PS2/GC performance is inconsistent and more demanding games can be a crapshoot.

    FeistyNose3055ShrewdSnow237

  • It does not charge reliably with just any USB-C cable and brick. Use the small included cable with a 5V power brick, such as an older iPhone USB charger.

I ordered the RG406H without any games, a big mistake. Where do you get the games and do you just load it in an SD card?

FWIW, I had the RG406H and currently have the RG476H. I prefer the latter. Costs more but better CPU, smaller overall size, yet better / larger screen makes it best of both worlds in my mind.
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/32...81119.html

That being said, the RG406H is still great.
I hold that same sentiment. I originally purchased my RG406H back in June on sale from AliExpress for $128.64 only for it to go on sale for much less than when I purchased it (using a coupon), but to add insult to injury, Anbernic releases the RG476H 3x months later which was what I would've preferred at first instead due to its button layout and joystick orientation. Not sure if you're aware, but both the RG406H and RG476H use the same Unisoc Tiger T820 chip.

I paid $70 for 128gb miyoo mini plus in 2023 I ended up just buying another microsd and loaded games. One issue I had was it mot charging properly. I attempted to rmeove battery reset and the plastic micro just connector piece broke off got stuck. I ended up ordering 4 replacmeent batteries off amazon for around $30. I dont play long sessions since my hands do get tired. Would be nice if it had mini hdmi out to play on tv
You just can't using any USB Type-C cable and brick to charge it. Just use the small cable that should've come included w/ it in combination w/ a power brick that's 5v. Any of those old Apple iPhone USB chargers they used to include w/ their phones back in the day will do.

I think someone else corrected me on the CPU, for some reason I thought the RG406H used the T618 but that might have been the 405.

Yeah, it was the ANBERNIC RG405V you just mentioned that used the T618, but what's ironic a/b your spiel is that there's the ANBERNIC RG406V which has the same exact mold and build as the 405, but it actually uses the T820 so I can see where your mishap originated from, lol...
