Yinlips YDPG17 is a gaming handheld launched in 2012. Powered by Cortex-A8 (1-core, 1 GHz), 512 MB RAM. Features a 4.3" TFT Touchscreen display (800 x 400). 2500 mAh battery. Runs Android.

The Yinlips YDPG17 is a horizontal gaming handheld launched in 2012 by Yinlips / Smaggi, built on the GP3303 platform. Inside is a single-core Cortex-A8 CPU at 1.0 GHz, a PowerVR SGX540 GPU at 500 MHz and 512 MB of LPDDR1 memory. Now discontinued, it is mostly of interest today to collectors and fans of classic emulation.

On the emulation side, the YDPG17 runs Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, NES, SNES and Sega Genesis / Mega Drive games very well. PlayStation is supported, but more demanding 3D titles struggle, while Nintendo DS and Nintendo 64 are only partially covered, with a few N64 games playable.

The 4.3-inch TFT touchscreen offers an 800 x 400 resolution, a 5:3 aspect ratio, roughly 208 ppi and a 60 Hz refresh rate, behind a plastic lens. Touch input is handy for navigating Android and for DS games.

Controls include a D-pad with separated buttons in the upper position, a single analog slidepad placed lower, four face buttons and L1/R1 shoulder buttons, plus Home, Menu, Esc and dedicated volume buttons. The plastic body measures 169 x 78 x 20 mm and weighs 413 g. There is no rumble.

The battery is rated at 2500 mAh and charges through a dedicated DC power port. Connectivity covers WiFi 4, Mini USB, Mini HDMI video output for TV play and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Dual stereo speakers face the rear, and sensors include a gravity sensor, front and rear cameras and a microphone.

The console runs Android 4.0, ships with 4 GB of internal storage expandable via microSD, and modding is permitted, leaving room to experiment with emulators and apps.

Ideal for: retro console collectors, fans of SNES and Mega Drive games, and players who want to enjoy classic titles on a TV through Mini HDMI.
