Anbernic RG 405V is a vertical retro gaming handheld launched in 2023. Powered by Tiger T618 (8-core, 2.0 GHz), 4GB LPDDR4X RAM and Mali-G52 MP2 GPU. Features a 4" Touchscreen, IPS LCD display (640 x 480, 4:3). 5500 mAh battery and WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0. Runs Android with GammaOS support.
At its core sits the Unisoc Tiger T618, an 8-core ARM chip (2x Cortex-A75, 6x Cortex-A55) clocked at 2.0 GHz, paired with a Mali-G52 MP2 GPU at 850 MHz and 4 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. Everything from 8-bit and 16-bit consoles to PlayStation, arcade, Neo Geo and Nintendo DS runs comfortably. Nintendo 64, PSP and Dreamcast are almost all full speed, some GameCube titles are playable, while PlayStation 2 is barely playable and only for the easier-to-emulate games. An active cooling system with a fan and ventilation cutouts helps keep performance steady during longer sessions.
The 4-inch IPS touchscreen uses a 640 x 480 resolution and a 4:3 aspect ratio, a natural fit for classic consoles that were designed around that shape. With around 200 PPI, a 60 Hz refresh rate and OCA-laminated tempered glass, it delivers a clean picture, and touch input adds flexibility in Android menus and in DS or 3DS emulation.
Controls are a highlight: dual Hall Effect thumbsticks with L3/R3, a cross D-pad placed up top, four face buttons and L1, R1, L2, R2 shoulder buttons. A gyroscope and rumble add extra immersion, and dedicated volume buttons sit alongside Home/Back, Power and Reset. The plastic body measures 105 x 145 x 35 mm and weighs 282 g.
The 5500 mAh battery charges via a top-facing USB-C port, which also supports OTG. WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0 cover downloads, streaming, wireless headphones and external controllers, and there is a 3.5mm headphone jack plus bottom-facing dual stereo speakers. Storage consists of 128 GB eMMC expandable via microSD.
As an Android device, the RG 405V lets you freely install emulators and frontends such as RetroArch, Daijishō, Pegasus or OpenBOR. Modding is permitted, and the community-built GammaOS is supported for those who want a leaner, gaming-focused system.
Ideal for: retro enthusiasts who prefer a vertical handheld, players who want reliable N64, PSP and Dreamcast emulation with premium Hall Effect controls, and Android tinkerers looking for a versatile device with long battery life.
