Gemei A330 is a gaming handheld launched in 2010. Powered by 8902, 890X (1-core, 500 MHz), 64 MB RAM. Features a 3" TFT LCD display (320 x 240). 1800 mAh battery. Runs Linux.

The Gemei A330 is a horizontal handheld launched in 2010, powered by a TeleChips 8902/890X SoC with a single ARM core at 500 MHz and 64 MB of RAM. Its platform list covers NES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, Sega Master System, Game Gear, Genesis / Mega Drive, TurboGrafx-16 / PC Engine and Neo Geo Pocket Color, plus arcade games through MAME, Capcom Play System 1, Capcom Play System 2 and Neo Geo.

On SNES, most games run at 60 FPS, though titles using FX and Mode 7 effects slow down. On PlayStation, most 2D games play well, although not all at a full 60 FPS, while 3D games lag.

The 3-inch TFT screen has a QVGA resolution of 320 x 240, a 4:3 aspect ratio, roughly 133 ppi and a 60 Hz refresh rate. The 4:3 format suits classic systems naturally, and the panel is covered only by a protector film rather than a separate lens.

Controls include a cross D-pad placed in the upper position, four face buttons, L1 and R1 shoulder buttons and a reset button. There is no analog stick and no rumble, and a built-in microphone is included. Power is handled by a switch, while volume and brightness are adjusted through the menu. The plastic body measures 135 x 61 x 16 mm and weighs just 118 g.

The 1800 mAh battery charges over Mini USB. Internal storage is 4 GB and can be expanded with a MiniSD card. Audio comes from dual bottom-facing stereo speakers or the 3.5 mm headphone jack, AV out lets you connect to a TV, and dual 2.4 GHz wireless enables local multiplayer.

The console runs the µC/OS-II operating system, and the model is now discontinued.

Ideal for: collectors of 2010-era handhelds and fans of arcade, 8-bit and 16-bit games who want a lightweight device with TV output and wireless multiplayer.
