The Anbernic RG CubeXX is a square-screen retro handheld that shines with Game Boy, Game Boy Color, vertical arcade shmups, and many 4:3 systems. The 3.95-inch 720 by 720 display can still produce a large image for most games, and the stock or modified firmware leaves decent bezels for unused space. It is also a bit more comfortable in the hand than very flat devices. The main tradeoffs are its niche aspect ratio for 16:9 and other widescreen content, plus average D-pad feel and awkward stick placement. It is a better fit if your library leans toward retro systems that suit a square screen.
The square form factor can make Game Boy and Game Boy Color look good while also benefiting vertical arcade shmups.
The square-ish 1:1 screen can scale 4:3 retro games to fill most of the display without awkward side bars.
Stock or modified firmware can leave unused space with decent bezels, keeping a usable image size for non-super-widescreen games.
Knulli reportedly works well, and existing Anbernic content setups can transfer easily to reduce setup friction.
The handheld can feel more comfortable in the hand than flatter devices and can be pocketed when not overly concerned about bulk.
The square aspect ratio is less suitable for 16:9 content, which can force more compromise on widescreen games.
Game playback can involve compromises because nothing is 1:1 on this display, affecting how content fits.
A loose piece that rolls inside the unit after unboxing can be discovered, potentially under the screen.
The D-pad is described as only mid, even though it may be among the better D-pads on cheaper RGXX devices.

"Square aspect ratio is super flexible. It can accomodate retro consoles, vertical arcade games and Nintendo DS two screens in original vertical mode in a playable way.
