If you’ve been dreaming of a modern handheld that actually nails the dual-screen experience, you’ve likely been eyeing the Anbernic clamshells. Whether you’re rocking the OG RG DS or the newer RG DS+, there’s some good news brewing in the software department.
GammaOS just dropped version 1.4.4, and it’s a beefy one. This isn’t just a minor “bug fix” patch; it’s a massive overhaul designed to make these devices feel less like prototypes and more like polished consoles.
The highlights are actually quite impressive:
- Better Visuals: New screen calibration and fixes for grainy button icons.
- Smoother Gameplay: The RG DS now gets the low-latency audio path, and both screens now sync up at a rock-solid 60 Hz.
- Quality of Life: You can finally hide games without deleting them, and the “slow motion” bug after fast-forwarding is officially a thing of the past.
From fixing Hotel Dusk crashes to ensuring your device doesn’t go to sleep mid-update, it’s clear Gamma is doing the heavy lifting to make these handhelds shine. Just a heads-up: if you want the update immediately, you’ll need to hit up his Patreon. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait for the public rollout.
