Hi there!

I have just got a Revo K101 PLUS as I found it cheap.
However, the thing seems to be VERY different from what people has been saying in reviews those past years: screen is full of shimmering unless I apply 1:1 scale (bilinear scaling seems to be totally absent from settings), and worst of all, scroll in games is utterly broken, showing several hiccups every second in 1-pixel scrolling games I know perfectly from original GBA.

So, what am I missing here? I thought that general consensus was that the REVO is a good clone, but it's a piece of junk as far as I know...
Maybe people fixed these screen problems via some firmare update or similar?

Thanks!

same here, could verify the scrolling stutter issue with a slowmo record, but I'm not allowed to post a youtube video here as a newbie, I guess. (it's easy to find with a google search for "anbernic revo k101 scrolling stutter"
Problem doesn't occur with external screen connection via composite btw.

Maybe only a few devices are affected an that's the reason why noone is mentioning the problem? To me, the stutter is VERY obvious with only small movements

Any idea?

    truth be told, i agree with psi, i dislike both candidates, but i'd probably vote trump simply because the economy was better during his presidency
  • AngryCinnabon @ AngryCinnabon:
    Just be careful, if trump ends up winning and using project 2025 America might really change...for the worse.
