    Amazing GBC

    I have the analogue pocket but prefer to play on this device. It feels right and the build quality is superb. This has got me back into collecting old gb and gbc games. Sound is clear and loud. The screen can be a bit bright but that’s a good think outdoors! If you like to play from a collection or a flash card this is the way.

    Solid hardware, great screen, more capable even than advertised.

    So we have a metal-body Game Boy Color, approximately the same size as the original, with a lovely backlit screen and optional rechargeable battery, plays original Game Boy/Color carts. So far, so good.

    It's far easier to tear down and reassemble than original Nintendo hardware. Even better!

    And... What's this? When you open it up there's a Micro SD card slot hidden in there! What can it do? You should Google that.

    I just bought a Retroid Pocket Nova shortly before this. A far more capable and equally portable device, as is the Analogue Pocket. But the Chromatic chooses to do one thing, and does it fantastically: pixel-perfect screens are better than shaders and upscaling, it's great to play Game Boy games without excess buttons, and the Game Boy Color library is fantastically large with tons of classics.

    Awesome!

    Not perfect but really close. The chromatic looks and feels great. You would never know this thing was made of metal just by looks alone. The battery life is good and the screen looks amazing. There’s a few things I’d change but it’s an overall great device. This device is only as good as the games you have !

    Perfect way to enjoy GB games

    Wonderful for GB games, love the way the buttons feel and wish I could get my Pocket DMG buttons to feel like that. Wonderfully bright display!

    An excellent, high quality product. Unfortunately this adds defense to my wife's tendency to save items from our past as it allows us to play all the old gameboy cartridges that have been sitting in a box in our closet for years, and years, and years.
