Anbernic RG40XX V released globally with pocket-sized dimensions and budget-friendly pricing aimed at emulating up to Dreamcast, PlayStation and N64 games

Anbernic has now released the RG40XX V globally, only shortly after it confirmed launch details for its latest retro gaming handheld. To recap, the RG40XX V is the second in the RG40XX series after the RG40XX H (curr. $89.99 on Amazon). Incidentally, the RG40XX H only arrived about a month ago.

Nonetheless, Anbernic tends to introduce a new gaming handheld monthly. Strictly speaking, the RG40XX V is actually the company's second release this month though, after the K101 Plus that it refreshed at the start of August. At any rate, the RG40XX V features the following hardware:

• 4-inch IPS display, full OCA lamination, 640 x 480-pixel resolution
• Allwinner H700 SoC, 4x ARM Cortex-A53 CPU cores (1.5 GHz), Mali-G31 MP2 GPU
• 1 GB LPDDR4 RAM
• 3,200 mAh battery (6 hours playtime)

Additionally, Anbernic has integrated the usual set of gamepad buttons for the most part, including ABXY buttons, a d-pad and two pairs of shoulder buttons. However, the RG40XX V finds itself with a single joystick, around which Anbernic has added customisable RGB lighting. Currently, the RG40XX V is available directly from Anbernic for $59.99 with a 64 MicroSD card. Alternatively, secondary MicroSD cards can be added with 128 GB and 256 GB capacities for $74.99 and $89.99, respectively.
