Anbernic RG 40XXV is a vertical retro gaming handheld launched in 2024. Powered by H700 (4-core, 1.5 GHz), 1GB LPDDR4 RAM and Mali-G31 MP2 GPU. Features a 4" IPS LCD display (640 x 480, 4:3). 3200 mAh battery and WiFi 5, Bluetooth 4.2. Runs Linux.
The 4-inch IPS display has a 640 x 480 resolution, a 60 Hz refresh rate and around 200 ppi. Its 4:3 aspect ratio matches the native format of most classic games, so titles fill the screen without awkward stretching. The panel sits under OCA-laminated tempered glass for added protection and clarity, and brightness is adjusted through the menu.
In true vertical style, the cross D-pad sits at the top with a single analog thumbstick with L3 click below it, alongside four face buttons. The L1, R1, L2 and R2 shoulder buttons use a shelf layout, and rumble adds feedback in supported games. Dedicated volume buttons, plus Menu, Power and Reset keys, round out the controls. The plastic body measures 92 x 139 x 13–22 mm and weighs 217 g.
A 3200 mAh battery powers the device, recharged through a bottom-facing USB-C port. Connectivity includes WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2, useful for file transfers, updates and compatible accessories. A top-facing Mini HDMI port lets you play on a TV, while a 3.5mm headphone jack and a front-facing mono speaker cover audio.
The RG 40XXV runs Linux and modding is permitted, so you can experiment with custom systems. Dual microSD slots make it easy to keep the operating system and your game library on separate cards, or to swap collections quickly.
Ideal for: retro fans who want an affordable vertical handheld with an authentic 4:3 screen, strong emulation up to PlayStation, TV output and plenty of room for tinkering with custom firmware.
