New Handheld from Anbernic
Anbernic back again with another gaming device, Following their previous releases of the RG Vita and RG Vita Pro which you can find on Amazon for about $179. Unlike those models with a traditional side-to-side design, this new one called RG Rotate has a look more like old Motorola FlipOut phones. Recently, the company revealed it in two colors – Aurora Silver, which seems to have an aluminium shell, and Polar Black, made with ABS plastic. Interesting to see how the different finishes add a unique touch.
Design & Hardware Details
Look, the whole setup for this new gadget is kept pretty mysterious for now. The videos they released just give us a tiny peek, showing us a handheld that’s not overly large, with a somewhat compact form. It does confirm some basics, like a 2,000 mAh battery that can be charged with 10 W power, using 5V/2A. But as for what it can truly do, especially about what games or systems it can emulate, well, it’s mostly up in the air. It probably won’t run high-end systems, just older ones like N64.
Features & Limitations
Now, here’s a bit of a downer. The RG Rotate doesn't include a 3.5 mm headphone jack, which is kinda odd since Anbernic marketed the device as a throwback to MP3 players. Instead, users will need to connect their headphones or speakers through the USB Type-C port on the top. That said, it does have a micro SD slot, so you can load up your games or media easily. Plus, the shoulder buttons are removable and can be swapped out if needed. For more in-depth info, check out the video from Anbernic where they demonstrate these features.
