Anbernic RG35XXSP Battery Replacement

Introduction

In this guide, we will show you how to safely replace the battery in the Anbernic RG35XXSP handheld console.

As batteries age, they lose their ability to hold a charge and power your device reliably. If your console frequently shuts down, charges slowly, or only works while plugged in, the battery may be worn out. A replacement can help restore normal performance and extend the device's life.

Some common causes

  • The device drains quickly, even after a full charge
  • It shuts down randomly or at high battery percentages
  • It only works when plugged in
  • The battery appears swollen or damaged

This guide includes all the steps you’ll need, along with helpful tips to make the repair go smoothly.

Make sure to power off and unplug your device before you begin the repair.
