Analysis
{"#RGDDSDesign":"The RG DDS, or 'Dream Dual-Screen,' is Anbernic's latest iteration of a dual-screen handheld device. It features a 4.7-inch main display with a 1,200 x 720 resolution and a 4-inch secondary display with a 960 x 720 resolution. The RG DDS is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon G2 Gen 2 chip, allowing it to emulate games from Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 2.","ControlDesign":"The RG DDS has a design that closely mirrors the Nintendo 3DS, including an extra analog stick on the right side and an extendable capacitive stylus that can be stored when not in use. Anbernic has also added a dedicated AI button, though the specific features it activates have not been detailed yet.","PricingAndRelease":"Anbernic has not yet revealed pricing or release dates for the RG DDS. However, it is expected to be more expensive than the $99 precursor, the RG DS. The company is known for its affordability, so it could potentially undercut the recently-released Retroid Pocket Duo and its Lite model, which starts at $149."}
