Anbernic RG Vita Pro is a horizontal retro gaming handheld launched in 2025. Powered by Cortex-A72 / Cortex-A53 4x / 4x (8-core, 1.8 GHz - 2.2 GHz), 4 GB LPDDR4X RAM and Mali-G52 MC3 GPU. Features a 5.46" IPS Touchscreen display (1920 x 1080, 16:9). 5000 mAh battery and WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2. Runs Linux, Android 14.

The Anbernic RG Vita Pro is a horizontal handheld that puts the focus on power and comfort. At its core sits the Rockchip RK3576 SoC, with eight cores (4x Cortex-A72 and 4x Cortex-A53) running at 1.8 - 2.2 GHz, a Mali-G52 MC3 GPU at 1.0 GHz and 4 GB of LPDDR4X RAM.

The platform list covers classics such as Game Boy, Game Boy Color, NES, SNES, Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, Game Boy Advance and PlayStation, then moves on to Nintendo 64, Nintendo DS, PlayStation Portable, Sega Saturn and Sega Dreamcast. It stretches all the way to Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo Wii, Nintendo 3DS and PlayStation 2, where the modest GPU means results depend on the individual game. Active cooling with a heatsink, fan and ventilation cutouts helps keep performance steady.

The 5.5-inch IPS Touchscreen runs at 1920 x 1080 in a 16:9 format, with roughly 400 ppi and a 60 Hz refresh rate, protected by OCA-laminated tempered glass. Touch input comes in handy for Nintendo DS and 3DS games as well as for navigating Android.

Controls include symmetric dual Hall Effect thumbsticks with L3/R3, a cross D-pad in the upper position, four face buttons and vertically oriented L1, R1, L2, R2 shoulder buttons. Home, Back, Power, Reset and dedicated volume buttons round things out, along with rumble and a gyroscope. The plastic body measures 206 x 84 x 18.6 mm and weighs 278 g, while sound comes from bottom-facing dual stereo speakers, plus a 3.5mm headphone jack.

The battery is rated at 5000 mAh, and charging is handled by two USB-C ports, one on top and one on the bottom. USB-C video out lets you hook up to a bigger screen, while WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 5.2 provide modern connectivity. The 64 GB of internal storage is complemented by dual microSD slots.

On the software side, the device runs Linux and Android 14, and modding is permitted, opening the door to custom firmware and personalised setups. The reference price is 150 USD, in the 150 - 200 USD bracket.

Ideal for: players who want a horizontal handheld with a Full HD touchscreen, Hall Effect sticks and emulation that reaches PSP, Dreamcast and part of the PlayStation 2 or GameCube library.
