Bittboy RK2020 is a gaming handheld launched in 2020. Powered by RK3326 (4-core, 1.5 GHz), 1 GB RAM. Features a 3.5" IPS LCD display (480 x 320). 2600 mAh battery. Runs Linux.
Inside is the Rockchip RK3326, a quad-core Cortex-A35 SoC clocked at 1.3–1.5 GHz, paired with a Mali-G31 MP2 GPU running at 650 MHz and 1 GB of DDR3 RAM. It runs 8-bit and 16-bit systems and arcade titles through MAME and Final Burn Neo with ease, and reaches SNES Super FX games and 3D PlayStation titles at 60 FPS. 2D PSP games are mostly playable, while 3D PSP titles need frameskip. N64 and Dreamcast are mostly playable with the easier-to-emulate games.
The 3.5-inch IPS display has a 480 x 320 HVGA resolution, a 3:2 aspect ratio and a 60 Hz refresh rate, giving roughly 165 ppi. That is sharp enough for retro content, and a tempered glass lens protects the screen in everyday use.
The layout places a cross D-pad in the upper position and a single analog thumbstick below it, alongside four face buttons and L1, R1, L2 and R2 shoulder buttons in a horizontal arrangement. Dedicated power and reset buttons are included, and volume and brightness are adjusted through button combinations. There is no rumble. Audio comes from a single bottom-facing mono speaker, with a 3.5mm headphone jack for private listening.
A 2600 mAh battery powers the unit, and it charges over USB-C. A USB-A host port supports WiFi through a USB dongle, and games are stored on microSD. Early units drew reports of overheating and slow charging. A later hardware revision reportedly fixes these issues, but only in the latest batches.
The console ships with a Linux-based RetroArch setup and also supports EmuELEC, and modding is permitted. Its button layout differs from the ODROID-GO Advance, so firmware made for that device may not map perfectly.
Ideal for: retro fans on a budget who want a compact horizontal handheld covering everything up to PS1, with some PSP, N64 and Dreamcast experimentation on the side.

- which is way lower than the 1.4a of OGA. (3.) The unit is much hotter than OGA
- and some users have reported overheating and crashing. - NOirBRight
