MINILOONG Pocket 1 is a gaming handheld launched in 2026. Powered by Cortex-A55 (4-core, 1.8 GHz), 1 GB RAM. Features a 4" IPS display (960 x 720). 4000 mAh battery. Runs Linux.

MINILOONG Pocket 1 is a horizontal retro handheld launched in 2026 and positioned in the $75 - $100 bracket, with a reference price of around 85 USD. Inside is the Rockchip RK3566 SoC, with four Cortex-A55 cores at 1.8 GHz, a dual-core Mali-G52 2EE GPU at 845 MHz and 1 GB of LPDDR4X RAM.

The device's home turf is the classic library: Game Boy, Game Boy Color, Game Boy Advance, NES, SNES, Sega Genesis / Mega Drive, PlayStation and Nintendo DS. N64, PSP and Dreamcast are playable, but not every title runs at full speed. Sega Saturn, GameCube, 3DS and PlayStation 2 appear on the platform list, yet they go beyond the stated emulation limit, so they are best treated as experimental.

The 4-inch IPS screen runs at 960 x 720 with a 4:3 aspect ratio, 300 ppi density and a 60 Hz refresh rate. The 4:3 format is a natural fit for retro games, and the OCA-laminated tempered glass cuts down on reflections while keeping the image close to the surface.

For controls, the D-pad (disc or cross) sits in the upper position next to four face buttons, with a single Hall Effect analog stick with L3 placed below it. The shoulders offer L1, R1, L2 and R2 in a vertical layout, plus Menu, Power and Reset buttons and dedicated volume buttons. The plastic body measures 165.43 x 79 x 17.8 mm and weighs 258 g.

The 4000 mAh battery charges over a bottom-facing USB-C port. Connectivity includes USB-C OTG, a top-facing Mini HDMI video output, a 3.5mm headphone jack, WiFi 5 and Bluetooth 4.2. Audio comes from a single front-facing mono speaker.

On the software side, the console runs Linux and ships with 8 GB of eMMC storage, backed by dual microSD slots for the system and your game collection. Brightness is adjusted through a button combination.

Ideal for: retro fans who want a quality 4:3 screen, solid emulation up to PlayStation and occasional forays into N64, PSP or Dreamcast, at an affordable price.
