Anbernic RG477V First Impressions
https://retrohandhelds.gg/anbernic-rg477v-first-impressions/
Anbernic just dropped the RG477Vâand itâs basically their greatest hits album, but in handheld form.
Packed with the Dimensity 8300 chip (yes, that one), a gorgeous 4.7â 120Hz 4:3 screen, and enough power to run Switch games like theyâre just chillinâ on vacation, this thing is the most capable vertical handheld Anbernicâs ever made. Itâs also the cheapest Dimensity 8300 rig on the marketâ$199 for 8GB? Sign me up.
The controls? Solid. The fan? Loud but effective. The battery? Lasts a solid 8 hours if youâre not pushing it to PS3 levels. And yes, the screen is again the same stellar panel from the RG477Mâno complaints here.
But ohhh, that black model. đ¤Śââď¸
Glass front + fingerprint magnet = your hands will be dusting it like a museum exhibit. And while the ergonomics are comfy, the design feels⌠safe. Like they ran out of creative juice after the woodgrain RG556.
Stabilityâs still a bit wonkyâsome users report crashes. Wait for GammaOS or OTA updates if youâre not in a rush.
Bottom line: If you want a powerhouse 4:3 retro rig that wonât break the bank? The RG477V is your guy. Just⌠maybe skip the black one. Your thumbs will thank you.
