Key Takeaways
1. Anbernic has introduced two new gaming handhelds, the RG34XX SP and RG557, in quick succession.
2. The company is returning to its RG35XX series with the upcoming RG35XX Pro, after a break since the RG35XX SP refresh in September.
3. The RG35XX Pro is expected to support emulation for fifth-generation home consoles and seventh-generation handhelds, likely using an Allwinner H700 chipset.
4. The design of the RG35XX Pro is similar to the BattleXP G350, featuring a dual joystick configuration.
5. Full specifications and pricing for the RG35XX Pro are anticipated to be announced soon, either later this week or in early June.
Anbernic is moving fast with another gaming handheld, having recently introduced the RG34XX SP and the RG557 in less than a month from each other. Contrary to what some may have thought, Anbernic isn’t venturing into a new design for its next device. Instead, the company is going back to the RG35XX series after a break, with the last update being the RG35XX SP refresh back in September, which is currently priced at $78.98 on Amazon.
New Developments in the RG35XX Series
This time around, the company is working on the RG35XX Pro, which we believe will be part of its product launch in June, marking the final release before summer. True to form, Anbernic has primarily highlighted the new handheld’s emulation features first, which seem to support up to fifth-generation home consoles and seventh-generation handhelds, including the PlayStation Portable. This suggests that Anbernic may have once again used an Allwinner H700 chipset. Though this isn’t confirmed yet, we think it might be combined with 2 GB of RAM, similar to the RG34XX SP, to set the RG35XX Pro apart from other RG35XX models.
Design Similarities and Expectations
In essence, the RG35XX Pro closely resembles the BattleXP G350 that was released earlier this year due to its design and dual joystick configuration. Therefore, the RG35XX SP can be seen as a kind of spiritual successor to the RG353V, but with a more advanced chipset. While Anbernic hasn’t officially announced pricing or the full specs yet, we expect the company to provide that information either later this week or at the start of June.
