ChangLiang Li LCL Pi Gameboy is a gaming handheld launched in 2017. Powered by BCM2837, BCM2837B0 (4-core, 1.2 GHz), 1 GB RAM. Features a 3.5" IPS LCD display (480 x 320). 7000 mAh battery. Runs Linux.
At its core is a Broadcom BCM2837B0 SoC (BCM2837 on some units) with four Cortex-A53 cores running at up to 1.4 GHz. It is paired with a Broadcom VideoCore IV GPU at 300 MHz and 512 MB or 1 GB of DDR2 RAM, depending on configuration. That is enough for 8-bit and 16-bit systems, including SNES Super FX titles, and for 3D PlayStation games at 60 FPS. Nintendo 64 and Nintendo DS are playable, though some games can lag. The library spans arcade via MAME and Final Burn Neo, Neo Geo, Sega and Atari consoles, home computers such as Commodore 64, Amiga, MSX and ZX Spectrum, plus ScummVM, Pico-8 and MS-DOS.
The 3.5-inch IPS display runs at 480 x 320 (HVGA) with a 3:2 aspect ratio, about 165 ppi and a 60 Hz refresh rate. A tempered glass lens protects it during everyday use. This resolution suits low-resolution retro content well.
Controls follow the vertical layout. A cross D-pad sits up top and a single PS Vita-style thumbstick sits below it, alongside six face buttons. L1 and R1 are rear-facing shoulder buttons. Volume and brightness are adjusted with wheels, and power is handled by a physical switch. There is no rumble. The plastic body measures 146 x 89 x 31 mm and weighs 363 g, so it is a substantial handheld.
Power comes from a swappable 7000 mAh battery, charged via Micro USB. Connectivity includes WiFi, Bluetooth and USB, plus Ethernet on units based on the Raspberry Pi 3B and 3B+. Audio comes from a single front-facing mono speaker or through the 3.5mm headphone jack.
Games and system files live on microSD, so building your own library is straightforward. Linux and RetroPie, with the EmulationStation front end, leave plenty of room for configuration, theming and modding.
Ideal for: retro enthusiasts, Raspberry Pi tinkerers and collectors who want a vertical handheld with a swappable battery and an open, customizable software platform for classic gaming.
