In our in-depth review of the Retroid Pocket 3+, we see how far we can push the handheld.
The Retroid Pocket 3+ uses the T618 chipset, the same as the Anbernic RG505 and the Powkiddy X18S. It is a solid improvement over the Retroid Pocket 3, and we also compare both devices in this review.
We also ran into a sound polarity problem with the speakers. If you have the same problem, we show you how to fix it.

EDIT: Only the first boot took 28 seconds, after that, a cold boot takes 22 seconds.
EDIT 2: If you DO run into the speaker polarity issue, first contact Retroid. If you want to try fixing yourself, check this video here on switching the cables: https://youtu.be/za-azgbZor8
