Less than a month ago, Anbernic launched the RG406V, which is currently priced at $229.98 on Amazon. While many companies might pause their product releases after such a launch, Anbernic follows a different approach. They have consistently introduced at least one new product each month since the beginning of this year.
New Rumors Emerge
Now that October has begun, it’s not surprising to hear rumors about upcoming Anbernic handheld consoles. Recently, NITTRX shared a drawing of what it claims to be the RG408, which features dual screens. Moreover, the same YouTube channel has also released a similar image of a supposed 'RG406P'. Members of the NITTRX community have pointed out that this RG406P looks like a Retroid Pocket 4, but with the d-pad and left analog stick swapped around.
Specifications Still Unknown
Sadly, details regarding the specifications of this new device are still unavailable. However, it is reasonable to assume that the RG406P will take a lot of its features from the RG406V. The RG406V sports a 4-inch, 4:3 aspect ratio display with a resolution of 720p, a 5,500 mAh battery, and is powered by a Unisoc T820 chipset. This indicates that the RG406P will likely be closer in size to the newer Retroid Pocket Mini rather than the Pocket 4, which has a larger 4.7-inch, 16:9 display.
Anticipation Builds
As the gaming community awaits more information, excitement continues to grow about what Anbernic might have in store. The combination of innovative design and improved specifications could make the RG406P a strong competitor in the handheld market. With Anbernic's track record of frequent releases, it won't be long before we get a clearer picture of this device’s capabilities.
