The ANBERNIC RG556 boasts a 5.48-inch AMOLED touchscreen that can reach a maximum resolution of 1920 x 1080p, making it suitable for emulating a wide range of classic games.

ANBERNIC RG556's internal hardware boasts a powerful Unisoc T820 processor and Mali G87 graphics unit, with 8 GB LPDDR4X RAM and 128 GB UFS 2.2 storage. It also supports TF card expansion of up to 2TB.

The two joysticks (which are arranged offset, not parallel) and the triggers of the shoulder buttons rely on Hall sensors to prevent joystick drift. The joysticks with magnetic Hall effect sensors are considered more precise and longer lasting.

The 5500mAh battery provides up to 8 hours of playtime. Wireless connectivity includes WiFi 2.4/5G 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac and Bluetooth 5.0.

The Android 13 operating system enables support for 30+ emulators and includes a six-axis gyroscope sensor for tilt control and vibration motor. It also supports 1080p display port output and moonlight streaming.

While the RG556 still holds strong with its comfortable design and solid performance, the RG557 introduces several notable upgrades:

  • Maintains the same ergonomic grip for long gaming sessions
  • Features a faster CPU/GPU and 50% more RAM for improved performance
  • Offers better screen color calibration for more vibrant visuals
  • Doubles the storage speed with 256GB UFS 4.0
  • Adds stylish new color options (Transparent Purple and White) with RGB lighting

Great retro console and fast delivery

I bought my first retro console ANBERNIC RG556 and was very surprised by a fast delivery and then by a very solid console capable to handle games up to PS2. Also, the screen is amazing and big enough and overall very comfortable to handle for long play session. I highly recommend it.

Brilliant

Well my second purchase already, I should have bought the rg556 first off but needed to test the waters with a cheaper handheld. I'm uk noryhwales and can safely say no need to pay the extra for handling times as it takes 7-10 days from purchase no matter so save yourself £6.99 trust me.
