Anbernic now has the RG DS on offer, a new gaming handheld with two screens. However, the model is currently only available for pre-order with a price tag of at least $94, which gets you the device without a memory card. Three color options are available, with shipping scheduled to begin on December 15. Potential buyers should inform themselves in advance about shipping conditions and possible import duties.

Two touchscreens

The DS stands for dual screen, which have a resolution of 640 x 480, measure 4 inches diagonally and are touchscreens. This makes the Anbernic RG DS particularly suitable for emulating Nintendo DS titles. Android 14 is the operating system, so Android titles can also be displayed, as well as completely different emulators.

More input options than the original DS

Under the hood is an RK3568 processor, 3 GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal storage, and a 4,000 mAh battery. Two joysticks are on board, along with the necessary action- and shoulder buttons. WiFi is supported on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Lastly, the 16 x 9.1 x 2.15 cm, 321-gram handheld also features a vibration motor.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.

I first became acquainted with computers in my early teens after a broken leg from a football (soccer) match temporarily condemned me to a predominately indoor lifestyle. Soon afterwards I was building my own systems. Having studied philosophy and anthropology, I am particularly fascinated by how computer technology has fundamentally and dramatically reshaped human culture, and how it continues to do so.
