RG476H: Anbernic confirms release details and launch offers for new retro gaming handheld
Anbernic has finally confirmed the launch date and pricing of its next retro gaming handheld. To recap, the company shared a full unboxing video earlier this week around the same time as Russ from Retro Game Corps published a first impressions video.
Before that, there were rumours that Anbernic had dropped the price of the RG476H from its initial position of $174.99. Ultimately, the company has not clarified that the RG476H was ever intended to cost that much. Nonetheless, official pricing matches prior suggestions. Thus, the RG476H will start at $149.99 without a microSD card in a choice of Black, Indigo and Retro Grey colour options.
Alternatively, the RG476H will be available with 128 GB or 256 GB microSD cards for $15 and $30 surcharges, respectively. Anbernic's latest gaming handheld will be available to order from September 19 at 10:00 UTC on the company's website. However, these prices will rise by $15 to a $164.99 starting price on September 22 at 10:00 UTC.
In summary, the RG476H combines hardware from the RG Slide and RG557 (curr. $299 on Amazon) to create a relatively compact and premium-looking alternative to the forthcoming Ayaneo Pocket AIR Mini. As we have discussed previously, the RG476H contains a 4.7-inch, 960p and 120 Hz IPS display with a 4:3 aspect ratio. Moreover, Anbernic has included a Unisoc T820 chipset, 8 GB of LPDDR4x RAM and a 5,000 mAh battery. Please see Anbernic's website for more details.
