Here’s what you’ll pay for ANBERNIC’s latest handheld console when sales open this Friday

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-19 07:22:41

TL;DR ANBERNIC reveals RG 476H pricing ahead of sales, and it’s good — but could be better. Formally set at $165, you’ll pay just $150 with an instant $15 discount. The manufacturer also confirms specs, which are almost perfectly in line with those of the RG Slide. Smartphones may be our bread and butter, but we are absolute suckers around here for a nice handheld gaming console — so we were understandably very excited earlier this month when we got word about the ANBERNIC RG 476H on the way.
