Hyperkin SupaBoy S is a gaming handheld launched in 2016. Features a 4.3" LCD display (480 x 272). 2500 mAh battery.
Because the hardware is dedicated to the SNES library, there is nothing to configure: insert a cartridge and play. The flip side is a narrow scope. The SupaBoy S is a cartridge player for one platform, not a multi-system emulation device, and your library is defined by the cartridges you own.
The 4.3-inch LCD screen, with a resolution of 480 x 272, gives 16-bit graphics a generous canvas. The picture is easy to follow, and the dual stereo speakers bring classic soundtracks to life without needing headphones.
Measuring 189 x 88 x 38 mm and weighing 280 g, the console is sturdy and chunky, because it has to accommodate full-size cartridges. Four face buttons echo the classic layout, and two controller ports let you connect external gamepads.
The 2500 mAh battery delivers around 5 hours of play and recharges via Micro USB. The composite AV output lets you hook the console up to a TV, while the 3.5mm jack is handy for headphone sessions.
The SupaBoy S is not a modding platform. Its appeal lies in the plug-and-play simplicity of original cartridges rather than custom firmware or ROM libraries. For players who just want to play, that is exactly the point.
Ideal for: SNES and Super Famicom cartridge collectors who want to play their original games on the move or on a TV with friends, without any setup.
