Anbernic RG477V Pre-Orders Begin on December 20, Starting at $199

Grab your wallet—another retro beast is dropping before 2025 ends.

Anbernic’s RG477V officially opens pre-orders on Dec 20 at 5 AM EST, starting at a shockingly low $199. Yeah, you read that right: a 4.7-inch, 120Hz, Dimensity 8300-powered handheld with RGB hall sticks and active cooling for less than two Cokes. The 12GB/256GB model? Just $239.99 for the first 72 hours. After that, prices creep up—but still, it’s a steal.

It’s not all sunshine and pixel-perfect emulators though. Early feedback (hello, Stubbs’ First Look) hints at software hiccups. But here’s the twist: Anbernic already dropped an OTA update (v1.35) with a “Performance Mode,” and GammaOS is already running on dev units—meaning the fix might be closer than you think.

Specs? Gorgeous. 5,500mAh battery, Wi-Fi 6E, USB-C display out, dual speakers, and a weight that won’t turn your wrist into a cramp. It’s not just a pocket console—it’s a full-fledged mini PC that thinks it’s 2003.

Review units are coming any day now. If you’ve been waiting for a sleek, powerful retro rig that doesn’t scream “cheap knockoff,” this might be your moment. Pre-order now—or regret it when they sell out before lunch.
