In a recently published unboxing video, ANBERNIC revealed everything that’s included in the box. Underneath the handheld, there will be a black box filled with a user manual, tempered glass screen protector with application kit, a charging cable, a lanyard, extra L2/R2 buttons, and screen wipes. The video also reveals the full specifications, which you can see in the table below.
The device features a Unisoc Tiger T618 Octa-core CPU, Mali G52 GPU, 3GB RAM, 32GB of storage, and a 2,000mAh battery. It will run on Android 12 and have support for a variety of emulators, ranging from Game Boy Advance to PS2 and more.
There will be a Polar Black model with an aluminum alloy front and a plastic backshell. Your other option will be an Aurora Silver variant that features a full metal body. ANBERNIC has told Retro Dodo that Polar Black will have a $87.99 price tag, while Aurora Silver will sell for $107.99. However, there will be an early bird special for those who order within the first 72 hours, which reduces the prices to $82.99 and $99.99, respectively.
You’ll be able to place your order starting on May 11 at 6:00 AM ET. However, the company did not say if this is the pre-order date or the official shipping date.
