What if the R36S was made by SMEG? Meet the RG32T — a handheld console that channels the charm of vintage appliances and the nostalgia of 1980s CRT TVs. With its retro-inspired silhouette and modern performance, it's like holding a tiny classic television in your hands — but way more fun.

Ok so an RK3128, 3326 and 3566
Those ass cheeks
this woulda slapped with the brick screen. woulda match the 32 part too but this does look interesting like the k36s got a makeover
Ah yes 100% black
anyone think theres a full 3.5 inch screen? or is this a 3.2 like that numbers might suggest
By the looks of it... rounded edges... imagine if you added extra bezels to the k36s (like the rp mini did), then a 3.5 can become a 3.2 xD.
I want one anyway 
im thinking its a 3.5 thats hidden like the rp mini
That’s what I was thinking too. No need to stock 3.2 panels when they have almost infinite stock on the 3.5 🤣
Fascinating if this is the case since everybody complained about what happened with the RP Mini
Nahh, budget ewaste arent trying to fake us with false reputation. That is part of what is fun of it "will it actually be what it was announced??"
I think you guys are overthinking the 32 in the name. The numbers in these clone series mean NOTHING 95% of the time
I think you right, but those bezels are still cobering the screen 
But Why ?
At this point they're just trying to get rid of all their 3128, 3266 & 3566 chip stock pile.
this scares me
it's giving
how much to pay for them to keep this one
So after the news came out that the rg34xxsp actually has a 4:3 screen reduced to 3:2 by the top bezel (but in a way that avoids the retroid mini issues), do you think the rg32 will be similar in that sense? My worry was that if they reduced the screen it might cause some issues, but seeing how the xx34 (which does the same) works well I am even more curious about this one.
That was fake news apparently
Ahh, just saw the community post update. It's all a bit weird
The stock os is Knulli huh 
😂😂just knulli theme

The rave led lighs are back 🙌
. I am already in love.
I hope they make drivers for the rave light for arkos can't use it with old glibc 
About that, is there any chance of arkos for the k36s (even without rave lights)? It seem like the one stick clones are hard to properly map.
They should work with the K36 image it's got 1 stick wdym it's hard to map
I will check it again later. I though it had similar issues to the arkos for the mymini.
So I rechecked. Sorry if I didnt express it correctly. By hard to map I meant for "devs", because there seems to be some interefetence of the second [ghost] stick. I flashed a new image of arkos for the k36 (using panel 4) and loaded it to my k36s. In ES and in-game it seems to work correctly, but when accessing the RA menu it either dosnt work, or lags, or only works once every few presses. (On the k36 the right stick is also weird in RA menu: if you map it correcrly it wont work on the menu, but if you keep the inverted maping it works inverted in the RA menu).
(The non existant right joystic is maped in retroarch in k36s, and it cant be erased, so maybe that is related)
probably the same issue retroarch doesn't work on the mymini
could also be the patch they did to the gamepad drivers that removed the misclicks. Maybe it's too sensitive and there's noise
Also try holding the vol+ button it presses the vol- as well unless you just press it once
The volume up botton of my k36 doesnt work (on any os
)
Rocknix an uOs also havent totally figured out the single joystics clones. But the new emuelec kernel works good for the mymini and k36s emuelec. So it i'm not sure if it is a sensiblity issue. I Hope and wish gets fixed for for arkos on the rg32t.
(Unlike on the mymino, on the k36s at least you can navigate the RA menu with the dpad)
Cant argue against that.
It's a cheap price to pay for an arkos with buttons misdetections fixed. (at one point I also tried the mymini arkos on the k36s for the leds options and i think that that is why I didnt remeber the dpad working on ra).
Interesting design, but those rounded corners triggers my OCD 😭

Did you buy one of these? the r36t? if so how does everything feel?
just wondering because i found a few listings on ali as well
might pick one up
I did order one, but I still havent received it. I will share pics when I get it.
I love that you always have on the rave led 
Your box at least has some text and renders on it, mine was plain cardboard xD
How do CRT shaders look on this? Can someone post some videos please? 🙏🤔 @pulsar pasture @harsh summit @plush pendant
And/or scanlines, grid shaders?
Fits like a glove! 😂
That looks great
I have to admire that idea 💡
What a fascinating little monster. Too bad about those RGB lights though.

I gott say, and maybe it's just me, but the default menu navigation sounds feel so natural and well suited to this dpad. Like the pressure, size and bounce match the sound.
wow nice

love how they're committing even harder to the retro aesthetic but still can't bring themselves to give up the rgb on the stick
maybe they bought too much of them? 🤣
Or the giant ass-cheeks. 🍑
I would like this so much more if you couldn’t see the screen bezels within the TV shape
New boxx!!
"My biggest dream is to stay young forever"
Young for-ever is to stay my biggest dream xD
Sad thing is this version doesnt come with case. But the box is nice.
Hello. Is it possible enable SSH? I'd like use Filezilla to send the ROMs
Idk this uses EmuELEC
white looks nice, how are the other colors?
9/11 news coverage on this 😍

There is actually a black rubber under the "crt" plastic that can be removed.
I actually removed the entire plastic, but here you can se the rounded edges.
Just ordered two from Shop1104699898 for $19 each, let’s see if they send it or a lightbulb!
Love to put Arkos os in this console. I already tried k36 image on this One and it works but problema with WiFi. I managed to find the wireless folder in the Root to put the drivers but i cant copy paste to there. Maybe in the future we can have a good OS in this console🙏
Prayers answered
have you tried shaking this thing?
This is the look I'd love to see on this handheld. Can you share how you got it to look like that?
how did u do that?😂
IPTV on ArkOS hehe
how do you add new crt shaders to this? The SD card only seems to have roms
which ArkOS image works?
Man those black bars just kill it
Yeah I almost prefer that some of the image was cropped out tbh
I saw someone say that the bezel around the screen is actually a rubber piece attached to the frame around the lens. They took it off and the screen actually fills up more of the lens.
Right here
That does look a lot cooler
Arkos OS avaible?
@pulsar pasture what arkosOS?
This is the most helpful comment I could find in the YouTube comments for Zu's review of this.
I agree the dpad feels nice

Não reconhece a antena WiFi com essa versão Arkos OS
Você encontrou outro cfw além do ArkOS para o R36T?
Infelizmente ainda não
Você já tentou esses passos?
Sim , já instalei vários o firmware k36 é o mais adequado mas não reconhece antena WiFi porque lhe falta os drivers da antena do r36t
Como você corrigiu o tamanho da tela? Meu menu do ArkOS parece estar sobrecarregado.
Não corrigi. Corta um pouco a imagem, mas é um corte aceitável.
Me too
Finaly a Arkos version for r36t ...https://github.com/lcdyk0517/arkos4clone....thanks to the developers 🙏
But r36t has no sound with arkos4clone?
No sound? That’s unfortunate
. Guess it's Ridge Racer time xD
