TL;DR
- A new report indicates the ANBERNIC RG VITA Pro will be a Linux device with a RockChip RK3576 SoC.
- The standard model runs Android on a Unisoc T618 SoC.
- Both devices are slated for release in late March, starting under or around $100.
The ANBERNIC RG VITA is a confusing device, with specs that imply a much more budget-friendly retro gaming handheld than the company’s other recent releases. A new report now shows the leaked specs for the Pro model, and despite looking identical, it’s a surprisingly different device with a completely different operating system.
According to a source close to ANBERNIC (via Retro Handhelds), the RG VITA Pro will feature a Rockchip RK3576 SoC paired with 4GB of RAM. This is the first time the RK3576 will be used in a handheld, and early benchmarks suggest it’s a modest step up from the Unisoc T618 on the base model RG VITA.
