Graham DavisCritic

Thoughts for RG DS The RG DS is a fun throwback handheld with a clean dual-screen design and a surprisingly strong community score already. At $95, it sits in that tempting budget zone where build quality, hinge feel, controls, and firmware polish matter just as much as raw specs.
