Key features
Flip clamshell with Hall switch auto-wake/sleep
The magnetic Hall switch chip detects the lid position automatically — the console wakes instantly when opened and enters sleep when closed, preserving battery without manual input.
3.5-inch IPS display with full lamination
OCA full lamination reduces surface reflections and improves contrast on the 640×480 IPS panel, delivering a noticeably cleaner image compared with non-laminated displays of the same size.
H700 quad-core CPU with dual-band WiFi
The H700 ARM Cortex-A53 processor running at 1.5GHz handles demanding emulators including PSP, N64 and NDS. Dual-band WiFi adds online multiplayer and streaming capability via Bluetooth controller support.
8-hour battery with USB Type-C fast charging
The 3300mAh battery delivers up to 8 hours of continuous gameplay, and USB Type-C fast charging minimises downtime between sessions.
