This new retro handheld just outclassed the Retroid Pocket 5 for Wii U and upscaled PS2
ANBERNIC's first device of 2025 is its most powerful to date.

- ANBERNIC has revealed its first device of 2025, the RG-557, featuring a large AMOLED display.
- It’s the most powerful device the company has ever released, emulating Wii U and upscaled PS2 games with ease.
- No word on pricing or release dates, but it may be packing the Snapdragon G2 Gen 1 processor.
ANBERNIC has been suspiciously quiet this year after releasing a whopping 12 devices in 2024. Today the company finally announced its first device of 2025, and it looks like it might be a powerful alternative to popular retro Android gaming handhelds like the Retroid Pocket 5.
The ANBERNIC RG-557 is a large device with a 5.48-inch HD AMOLED display. It’s the same size and rough design as the RG-556 from last March, but if rumors are true, it will pack far more power.
