T16 Max: New gaming handheld offers analog sticks and pretty sharp display for under $38

The T16 Max is a new and very affordable gaming handheld with a rather unusual appearance. The manufacturer apparently intends to evoke certain associations with Batman via the corresponding logos, which probably aren’t officially licensed.

Anyhow, the device is quite tall, as the input options are arranged in two rows stacked on top of each other. The display is located above, rather than in between these buttons. More specifically, there are two analog sticks, action buttons and a D-pad plus additional menu buttons. Four shoulder buttons can be found on the rear. These inputs should be suitable even for more complex games.

In terms of specifications, the cheap T16 Max features an RK3326 processor with four cores clocked at up to 1.6GHz and 1GB DDR4 RAM. This system can likely emulate several platforms and consoles, such as different Game Boy generations, the Sony PlayStation 1, PSP and Nintendo 64.

Gamers can utilize two SD card slots, while one of them usually contains the operating system, while the other can be used to store games. Additionally, there’s a 3.5-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 720 x 720 pixels, which should result in a relatively sharp picture quality. Last but not least, a 3,000mAh battery is built-in, and the T16 Max gaming handheld supports wireless controllers as well as multiplayer games.
