R35S Plus is a vertical retro gaming handheld launched in 2024. Powered by RK3326 (4-core, 1.3 GHz), 1 GB LPDDR4 RAM and ARM Mali-G31 MP2 GPU. Features a 3.5" IPS display (640 x 480, 4:3). 3500 mAh battery. Runs Linux.
The 3.5-inch IPS screen has a 640 x 480 resolution, a 4:3 aspect ratio and a 60 Hz refresh rate. The 4:3 format matches many classic consoles, so games fill the display without large black bars, and the resolution allows clean scaling of low-resolution content, such as an exact 2x scale of 320 x 240 images.
The vertical design recalls classic handhelds, and the controls are complete for its class: a cross D-pad, dual analog sticks and four shoulder buttons (L1, R1, L2, R2). The dual sticks are useful in games that rely on analog input, while the extra shoulder buttons cover more complex control layouts.
Power comes from a 3500 mAh battery charged via the USB-C port. The device also includes a 3.5mm headphone jack. Dual microSD slots let you keep the system separate from your game library, which makes updates and organizing your collection easier.
The R35S Plus runs Linux, and its modding policy is permissive, so users are free to experiment with alternative firmware and custom configurations. That makes it appealing to enthusiasts who like to fine-tune their own setup.
Ideal for: players looking for a compact vertical handheld for classic retro titles, with a 4:3 screen, dual analog sticks and modding freedom on Linux.
