The new Anbernic RG Rotate is now available in our store for worldwide shipping . This Android 12 retro console is truly unique thanks to its foldable screen.
The Anbernic RG Rotate features a 3.5-inch 1:1 screen with a resolution of 720 × 720 pixels that unfolds along a single axis, rotating to one side—a novel system, but one that makes us question its durability, given the problems some Chinese consoles have had with simple hinges. Its closed body is really small, measuring just 80 x 80 x 21 mm, and it will be available in two versions: one with an aluminum body and a more affordable one with a plastic body.
It’s powered by the Unisoc T618 octa-core processor, a chip capable of running even many games from the Nintendo GameCube, Dreamcast, PSP, PS1, and some PS2 titles. The operating system is Android 12, featuring various AI-powered utilities and support for the RixelHk ROM downloader developed by Anbernic itself. The board also features 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of eMCP storage, which can be expanded up to 2 TB using the included microSD card reader.
It also features Wi-Fi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity. It has a 2000 mAh battery that provides about 9 hours of use, a pair of stereo speakers, and a vibration motor. The controls include several function keys, 4 triggers, an analog stick, and a USB Type-C port for charging the internal battery and transferring data.
