ANBERNIC officially reveales their new handheld called the RG40XX H, with neat new features and a H700 CPU.

  • Leaked a few days ago, the new handheld from ANBERNIC has been officially confirmed with its name: RG40XX H.

  • It features a4" IPS full-laminated display, 5G Wifi module, Bluetooth connectivity, HDMI out and Moonlight streaming capability. The exact CPU model is rumored to be Allwinner H700.

  • It has a rounded look compared to ANBERNIC’s previous designs like the 353 series.

  • Available in three colours: black, grey, and blue, with LED joysticks that can select from over 16 million color options. This might not be practical, considering only about 25 different color settings would have been sufficient.

  • Expected to support emulation for games from PSP, Dreamcast, and N64 consoles, potentially at a price under $99. The official pricing has yet to be announced.

What do you think of ANBERNIC’s decision to continue with their naming pattern or would you prefer them to adopt something more distinctive?

    Well, I have to either attach it to my phone with a clip of some kind (which makes for sometimes questionable ergonomics or for a very wobbly, insecure setup that makes me fear I’ll drop my phone) Or I have to put my phone down on something, which for the sort of thing I use devices like this for just isn’t doable.

    Personally I never felt the use of a clip or some other mounting system was that bad or wobbly, i certainly don’t feel it’s so bad that I had to spend money on a device with limited functionality (or a downgrade) just to manage that problem. Seems like backwards thinking or a bad solution to a problem that doesn’t really exist.

    Which is exactly the point I’m making. I want to split that battery life up between devices, so my phone is less likely to die on me. I can deal without a handheld game console but if my phone taps out it’s more of a problem.

    Which leads to my point. Why did you spend so much money on a device with such functionality if you are worried about using it? For the cost of one of these handhelds you can buy multiple battery packs/portable chargers and actually use the expensive phone you carry around with you at all times.

    Honestly if your phone dies that fast check your battery as it could be dying.

      My phone’s battery is absolutely fine, although it isn’t expensive in the slightest (weird of you to assume it is…) but regularly hits below 30% battery towards the end of the day even without playing games. I could use a battery bank, but I’d still need that external controller which is yet another thing to carry and is awkwardly shaped and wouldn’t fit anywhere near as well in a pocket.

      Again, weird to think I’m “worried” about anything. I’d just rather reserve my phone’s battery for when I need to use it, instead of wasting substantial amounts of it playing games.
