Powkiddy RGB20 Pro: New vertical retro gaming handheld now official with high resolution display and up to 10 hours of battery life
Powkiddy has now opened pre-orders for the RGB20 Pro, roughly two months after early details emerged online. For context, Powkiddy's latest release is the third in the RGB20 series after the RGB20S and RGB20SX (curr. $95.99 on Amazon). While their names would imply a degree of similarity between the three devices, that does not wholly extend to their designs.
For example, the RGB20 Pro actually has the smallest display of three at 3.2-inches. By contrast, Powkiddy equips the RGB20S and RGB20SX with 3.5-inch and 4-inch displays, respectively. With that being said, the RGB20 Pro has a comparatively high-resolution panel, unlike its series siblings. Unsurprisingly, Powkiddy has complemented this 1,024 x 768-pixel panel with a more powerful chipset.
