Anbernic RG Slide first look 🛝, Switch 2 cancellations 🗑️, PlumOS for PowKiddy V90S 🍑
Anbernic RG Slide first look (1:22 video)
Anbernic have already revealed their RG Slide in detail! Sporting a sliding form-factor similar to the PSP Go and Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, with a 4.7-inch IPS display. It has a 4:3 aspect ratio, 1280x960 resolution and 120Hz refresh rate. The 4:3 display in particular is a very controversial choice, with some users (me, the writer) bemoaning the lack of a 16:9 display.
Let us know what you think on X:
