ANBERNIC keeps widening its retro handheld lineup, and the new RG 477V looks set to be the brand’s most compelling device in a while. The company has officially showcased the vertical portable in a YouTube video, confirming its design and the core features.
The handheld uses a 4.7-inch IPS display with a 4:3 aspect ratio and a 120 Hz refresh rate—the same panel found in the RG Slide and RG 477M—but now rotated into a vertical format with noticeably slimmer bezels. Rumors point to a powerful Dimensity 8300 inside, a chip that has already shown it can handle emulation up to PlayStation 2 and even lighter Nintendo Switch projects. Improved Mali drivers only build on that potential, suggesting the hardware won’t be the bottleneck.
RG 477V brings a full control suite: two mini sticks, a D-pad, and four additional buttons on the back. With the sticks placed symmetrically, the layout feels particularly friendly for retro titles where the D-pad does the heavy lifting.
Renders show two colorways—black and a classic gray. The front face is fully glass, lending the device a more premium look. Earlier leaks also indicated a 5300 mAh battery and two memory options: 8/128 GB and 12/256 GB.
