We already have the final specifications of the new Anbernic RG34XX SP, a retro console with 3.5″ screen with a clamshell design that does the honours to the Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP.
A console that fits perfectly in any pocket, and when closed, it measures 83 x 82 x 25 mm and weighs 178 grams. This version seems to have a very good 3:2 screen, as well as a much improved locking mechanism compared to the ANBERNIC RG35XX SP, which leaves much to be desired. As controls, we only have a crosshead, four buttons and four rear triggers, enough for 2D games that can emulate.
This Anbernic uses a Linux based system and its Allwinner H700 processor is powerful enough to run all 16 Bit consoles, PS1 and Arcade machines. It is supposed to be able to emulate even many PSP, N64 and Dreamcast titles, but it is not recommended to use it for them.
Anbernic RG34XX SP Specifications
Inside this small retro console we find as engine a low power consumption Quad Core SoC Allwinner H700. A chip with 4 ARM Cortex-A53 processors capable of reaching 1.5 Ghz and an ARM MALI-G31 MP2 GPU with support for video even up to HDR10.
This console includes 2 GB of LPDDR4 RAM. For storage, we have two micro SD card readers up to 512 GB for the operating system and store games.
