The V40 Max is a new and affordable gaming handheld designed to play a wide variety of games, not just very old titles. It features joysticks as well as shoulder buttons. The model's design is basically similar to a Game Boy, at least in terms of the display layout.
The V40 Max is a new gaming handheld device that is now available for direct import for just under $54. Shipping is free and customers will not be charged import duties, but delivery estimates range between 20-30 days.
The V40 Max is a gaming handheld with the screen positioned above the input devices, making it similar to a classic Game Boy. It features a 4-inch IPS display and a resolution of 720 x 720, resulting in a 1:1 aspect ratio. An RK3326 SoC is installed, with four Cortex-A35 cores operating at up to 1.5 GHz, allowing for emulation of various platforms. Emulators for 45 platforms are said to be available out of the box.
According to the manufacturer, over 40,000 video games are already available. Many of these are likely to be questionable from a copyright perspective. Storage expansion is possible via memory card. Four shoulder buttons are on board, which, combined with the two analog sticks, the rather unusually shaped D-pad and the four action buttons, should provide adequate control for more complex titles. Lastly, headphones can be connected.

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.

Growing up in regional Australia, 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. Now I live in Germany, having moved here in 2014, where I study 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.
