The Anbernic RG 477V is the strongest choice for players who mostly want older consoles on a 4:3 screen with modern power. Anbernic lists a 4.7-inch LTPS In-Cell touch display at 1280*960 with a maximum refresh rate of 120Hz, a Dimensity 8300 processor built on a 4nm process with a Mali-G615 MC6 GPU, and Android 14. Memory options are 8GB with 128GB or 12GB with 256GB, and the TF slot takes cards up to 2TB. The 5500mAh battery is rated for 8 hours and charges at up to 27W. Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, large-angle 3D Hall joysticks and RGB stick lighting complete the spec sheet. The price was $258.59 on sale against a regular $269.99 when we checked, which puts it above the Retroid Pocket 6. The LCD panel is not AMOLED, and orders ship from China or the US. We compared documented features and published prices only.
