Anbernic has made an announcement about the RG Vita Pro specs this week, more than a month after its previous launch (currently priced at $69.99 on Amazon). The company has released a new video demonstrating the capabilities of this handheld device. The video below shows that the RG Vita Pro is expected to be more powerful than the current RG Vita model.
Insight on Performance
At this point, we can only rely on the information provided by Anbernic. It’s important to note that independent evaluations have shown that the RG Vita struggles to emulate PS Vita games. Retro Game Corps described the handheld as being more akin to an RG PSP due to its weak CPU and GPU. According to the latest video from Anbernic, the RG Vita Pro aims to fix the limitations seen in its non-Pro version.
Emulation Capabilities Uncertain
Currently, it’s not clear if the RG Vita Pro is capable of emulating PS Vita games at its native 1080p resolution. Achieving this would mean around 4x scaling, which seems improbable given the device’s Mali-G52 MC3 GPU. For context, this GPU is part of the Rockchip RK3576 chipset, which Anbernic has paired with 4 GB of RAM, a 5,000 mAh battery, and Hall effect joysticks.
