PowKiddy RGB10 Max is a horizontal retro gaming handheld launched in 2021. Powered by RK3326 (4-core, 1.5 GHz), 1GB DDR3 RAM and Mali-G31 MP2 GPU. Features a 5" IPS LCD display (854 x 480, 16:9). 4200 mAh battery and Bluetooth.

The PowKiddy RGB10 Max is a horizontal retro gaming handheld launched in 2021, built around a generous screen and a full set of controls. Inside sits the Rockchip RK3326 SoC, with four ARM Cortex-A35 cores at 1.3 - 1.5 GHz, a Mali-G31 MP2 GPU at 650 MHz and 1GB of DDR3 RAM.

On the emulation side, it runs SNES FX titles and 3D PlayStation games at 60 FPS, while 8-bit and 16-bit systems, Game Boy Advance, Neo Geo and CPS arcade boards are handled with ease. 2D PSP games are mostly playable, 3D PSP titles need frameskip, and N64 and Dreamcast work well only for the easier-to-emulate games. The library also stretches to Nintendo DS, Sega Saturn, MS-DOS, ScummVM and Pico-8.

The 5-inch IPS display runs at 854 x 480 in a 16:9 aspect ratio, around 196 ppi, and is OCA laminated under tempered glass. The wide format suits PSP and Nintendo DS content, and brightness is adjusted via a button combination.

For controls, the RGB10 Max offers symmetric dual analog sticks with L3/R3, an upper-placed cross D-pad, four face buttons and four shoulder buttons (L1, R1, L2, R2). You also get power, reset, volume buttons, two function buttons and a dedicated WiFi on/off switch. The plastic body measures 185 x 76 x 17 mm and weighs 219 g; there is no rumble.

The battery is rated at 4200 mAh, and the device features dual USB-C OTG ports, WiFi, Bluetooth, a 3.5mm headphone jack and a single bottom-facing mono speaker. Cooling is passive via ventilation cutouts, and storage is handled by microSD.

The operating system is Linux and modding is permitted, so users can experiment with various custom firmwares. Be aware that the screen is held down only with double-sided tape.

Ideal for: retro fans who want a large screen, dual analog sticks and a price of around 120 USD, for games up to PlayStation plus selected PSP, N64 or Dreamcast titles.
