Anbernic RG40XXV Handheld Game Console
Expert Take
Retro handheld emulator with excellent controls and screen quality, though it essentially reuses the same chipset from the RG40XXH in a vertical form factor. Solid for budget emulation, but "Anbernic fatigue" sets in given frequent releases. Good for retro gaming under $60, mediocre for modern demanding titles.
