Anbernic RG406V custom Gamma OS 512Gb or 1TB Android OS handheld gaming console

We now have access to gamma OS for these devices, for those who are not familiar with this operating system, there are multiple benefits to using gamma OS instead of the stock OS. Some of the benefits include; increased performance and stability, better mapping of the controllers, improved interface and easy access to systems and apps, improvement of battery performance among many other features.

The latest product from Anbernic that we have configured for plug and play so you don't have to, the RG406V, One of the major differences that comes with this new model is the upgraded processor as well as increased RAM from 4GB to 8 GB which you should notice about a 30 to 50% performance increase on average for higher end systems. but in a vertical Gameboy DMG form factor, this device also includes a large 5500 mAH battery which will give you at least 8-12 hours of battery life depending on usage.
This device was designed for ergonomics in mind as it is quite bulkier than other devices such as the RG353v, RG405m and other similar devices. One of the unique features is the added active cooling with a built-in fan and top vent for prolonged gaming, this allows for better cooling during heavy gaming.
The Anbernic RG406V runs on 8 cores, 8GB RAM, 128GB built-in memory, 4" 960x720 display with 512GB Sandisk/Samsung/PNY branded fully configured/loaded expansion SD card.

Included with this unit are the USB-C cable, screen protector+wipes, operating instructions, premium Samsung, PNY, or SanDisk SD card, and configured emulators similar to the RP3 Plus and rg505 Android machines.

Similar to our Retroid Pocket 4 and other Android systems of this generation, we have configured these emulators and scanned libraries within Retroarch, Redream, PPSSPP, N64, Duckstation, Aethersx2, and Dolphin which will save you many hours of configuring and setting them up yourself. You may have to adjust settings for certain titles within Dolphin and aethersx2 to get the best performance possible, often changing resolution, applying frame skip, etc will yield better results, there's a link for ideal settings provided within the instructions sheet, if you don't mind tinkering then you'll be able to squeeze the most power out of this unit.

The Daijisho Launcher is setup for the most popular Atari, Sony, Sega, and Nintendo systems, etc saving you additional time to do so as well.

 

The Anbernic RG406V is one of the latest and most powerful Android-based devices that can support up to GameCube and PS2 emulation, these devices come in two colors; grey and black, and the retro Gameboy DMG format is a very nice premium design, Anbernic puts some effort into producing these machines and they're some of the most appealing designs we've had from Anbernic.

Overall we are very satisfied with the performance results. We're satisfied with the performance after testing this system which can play older systems without problems(N64, PS1, DC) as well as the majority of GameCube with good frame rates, you may have to resort to tweaking the settings within the dolphin emulator for certain games to achieve maximum performance but other than that emulation is pleasant and playable overall. 

Hardware: some of the best features of this device are the 4" ultra sharp 4:3 aspect ratio LCD screen, large 5500 mAH battery, Hall sensor joysticks which prevent joystick drift. Furthermore, the joysticks use Hall sensors which are ideal for stick drift prevention, This technology uses magnetic components instead of the traditional mechanical internal components that can often wear out and cause stick drift which is notorious with a lot of handhelds. Using the device for prolonged periods is also pleasant, the rounded corners and back allow for easy holding and the rounded backplate on the back side of the unit allows for better grip and holding on to the console.

512GB version: the system will support classic systems 8, 16, 32, and 64 and will further expand on GC and include PS2 support as well with dolphin and aethersx2 setup.
