Anbernic is set to introduce the RG40XX V, a new retro gaming handheld device. This model features a 4-inch display and marks a shift from the brand's recent horizontal devices, adopting a vertical design reminiscent of the AYANEO Pocket DMG.
Design and Display
Following the recent release of a new version of the K101 Plus, the Anbernic RG40XX V appears to be an extension of the RG40XX H, which is already available on Amazon. This variant is essentially a vertical iteration of the RG40XX H, boasting an IPS display with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels. The device is powered by an unspecified chipset, purportedly capable of emulating retro games like Dreamcast, Nintendo 64, and PlayStation 1. This chipset may be the Allwinner H700, frequently used in Anbernic’s popular gaming handhelds.
Features and Specifications
The RG40XX V is equipped with a 3,200mAh battery, identical to the one in the RG40XX H. In terms of design, it lacks one joystick, drawing design parallels to the AYANEO Pocket DMG. It includes a pair of shoulder buttons and a MicroSD card reader. The device will be available in white and black translucent color options, both featuring RGB backlighting to enhance the gaming experience.
Pricing and Availability
Currently, there are no details regarding the pricing and release date of the RG40XX V. However, it is anticipated to launch later this month. For context, the RG40XX H is priced at $94.99.
