Anbernic RG Slide is a horizontal retro gaming handheld launched in 2025. Powered by Tiger T820 (8-core, 2.7 GHz), 8GB LPDDR4X RAM and Mali-G57 MP4 GPU. Features a 4.7" LTPS Touchscreen display (1280 x 960, 4:3). 5000 mAh battery and WiFi 5, Bluetooth 5.0. Runs Android.
At its core sits the Unisoc Tiger T820 octa-core SoC, with four Cortex-A76 and four Cortex-A55 cores clocked between 2.1 and 2.7 GHz, paired with a Mali-G57 MP4 GPU at 850 MHz and 8 GB of LPDDR4X RAM. That is enough to run PSP and Sega Saturn at full speed, while GameCube, Wii and PS2 are mostly playable. Classic systems such as Nintendo 64, Dreamcast, PlayStation, SNES and arcade platforms are well within reach. Active cooling with a heatpipe, fan and ventilation cutouts helps keep performance steady during longer sessions.
The 4.7-inch LTPS touchscreen runs at 1280 x 960 in a 4:3 aspect ratio, a natural fit for retro games, with a sharp 340 PPI and a smooth 120 Hz refresh rate. It sits under OCA-laminated tempered glass for clarity and durability.
Controls include a cross D-pad in the upper outer position, dual capacitive thumbsticks with L3/R3 placed symmetrically in the middle, four face buttons and horizontal L1, R1, L2 and R2 shoulders. Function and Home/Back buttons, dedicated volume keys, a gyroscope and rumble round out the package, while dual front-facing stereo speakers deliver clear sound. The device measures 154 x 90 x 26 mm and weighs 379 g.
A 5000 mAh battery charges via a bottom-facing USB-C port, which also supports video output to a TV or monitor. There is a 3.5mm headphone jack, WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 5.0, plus 128 GB of UFS 2.2 storage expandable via microSD.
Android 13 and a modding-friendly policy let you install emulators, frontends, launchers and apps freely. The supported platform list is vast, covering home computers like the Commodore 64, Amiga and MSX, classic consoles from Atari to Sega, and 3D systems up to PS2.
Ideal for: retro enthusiasts who want a powerful Android handheld with a 4:3 high-refresh screen, active cooling and the headroom to handle PSP and Saturn at full speed while dabbling in GameCube, Wii and PS2.
