Grab your coffee, retro fans. The handheld world is moving faster than a Game Boy Advance SP loading screen.
First up, Anbernic is stepping into the big leagues with the RG 55G1. This isn’t just another budget brick; it’s teasing a Snapdragon processor, marking a potential “new frontier” for the brand. Meanwhile, TrimUI is pre-selling the Brick Pro and the more powerful Hammer U, with prices starting at a wallet-friendly $76.50. If you’re holding out for the future, AYANEO just dropped the Pocket MICRO 2, boldly calling it “Retro’s New Icon” in a crowded market.
Software is keeping up with the hardware. Starboard finally brings PortMaster to Android, letting you run those high-end Windows games on your phone via a Linux environment. It’s a game-changer for mobile emulation. Over on the PC side, Valve is expanding SteamOS support to include Intel-powered handhelds, making life easier for non-ARM users.
With AliExpress and Amazon Prime Day sales creeping up, now is the time to score deals on everything from the AYN Thor to 8BitDo controllers. Whether you’re building a vertical rig or just looking for a portable Doom fix, the options are better than ever. Stay tuned, stay retro, and don’t forget to check those discount codes.
