Sold A600GS

[Koolvin]

Too early to market, software needs a lot of work. Audio over HDMI doesn’t work yet, no full hdmi port on the back, cheap tat of a controller, cheap sticker over joypad buttons , slow to boot, etc etc . I was just intrigued to see what it was like… and don’t recommend this to anyone. If you really want it then £140 plus postage PayPal friends and family no returns on this item - it’s pants and you have been warned !

Audio over HDMI doesn’t work yet

Is this true? It was reported in a video by Steve Jones of Checkmate yesterday BUT he's since back-tracked saying it was user error.

For me, yes. Although the UI has an option to adjust the level independently for the aux/hdmi I got no sound (but maybe it is an option I missed somewhere??)

Bad Points?

No audio over HDMI (yet) but says so in gui you can (but maybe it is an option I missed somewhere??)
No full size HDMI port
Slow to boot
Slow to launch stuff
Cheap stickers already bubbling making buttons stick on joypad
Cannot run WHD load
cannot mount hdfs (yet)
No manuals not that you need them
Ui is pants
Have to register for updates (good and bad?)

Good points?

Price
PCB good quality made by Rabbit Hole Computing (top board is ENIG bottom HASL)
Decent SD card
I like the presentation of it
Decent quality HDMI cable
New Final Writer and audio stuffs
With time and development it may be awesome

Was rattling out the box - turned out to be a loose antenna inside not secured down.... a bit of Kapton tape fixed that issue, but at first I thought it may be audio related - no big deal tbh.

Have more vids pics etc - Hopefully this product will mature soon and then be awesome - not now though out the box....
