The portable console fever has not stopped and new versions continue to appear every month in online stores; in fact, there are so many that it can be difficult to tell the difference between the good ones and the cheap copies. Fortunately, there is a brand that does not have a habit of failing, Anbernic, which has already launched several very popular portable consoles.
This week, the company confirmed Global launch of the new RG40XX Va portable console that continues the design lines of its predecessors, but with improvements in many aspects. As usual, this should mean that the console will arrive soon on Amazon, like its predecessors that are bestsellers on the platform.
The Anbernic RG40XX V is expected to be another of those best-sellers, with a very familiar design reminiscent of a certain portable console that broke sales records; of course, this design has been modernized, with the presence of four triggers on the back, more face buttons and an analog stick in the lower left corner.
This lever will be important because the RG40XX V will be powerful enough to run console games like the PlayStation, Nintendo 64 and Dreamcast. Therefore, you should have no problem running 3D games and hence the need for a control stick better suited for these games. This performance is possible thanks to an Allwinner H700 quad-core processor accompanied by a Mali-G31 MP2 GPU and 1GB of LPDDR4 RAM.
The screen is another notable aspect of the RG40XX V, with a size of 4 inches, based on IPS technology to offer perfect viewing angles. The resolution of 640 x 480 pixels seems low, but it is ideal for this size and especially for the games that we are going to run on this machine. The whole is completed by a 3,200 mAh battery, which should be enough to play for 6 hours straight
Connectivity-wise, the RG40XX V is compatible with 5GHz WiFi and Bluetooth 4.2 and a 2.4GHz wireless connection to connect controllers. A USB-C output is added that allows you to connect the console to a TV with HD video output.
The Anbernic RG40XX V is now available on the brand’s official website, although for the moment, shipments are only available from China; we will therefore have to add shipping and customs fees to the price of $66.99. Perhaps the best option would be to wait for the console to arrive on Amazon Europe, where it is already possible to find its “sister”, the RG40XX H in horizontal format, for 99.99 dollars.
