Details and specs
The RG DS Plus is a dual-screen handheld built for Nintendo DS games. Each of its two 4.3-inch screens is 1024x768, exactly four times the DS resolution, so DS games scale in clean pixel blocks. There’s a built-in stylus and a hinge that opens from 15 to 180 degrees, and reviewers say the D-pad and buttons feel close to the original DS.
The chip is the same Rockchip RK3568 as the original RG DS, with 1 GB of RAM, so think of it as a DS machine first rather than a do-everything handheld. The 4000 mAh battery is rated at about 6 hours. The price on AliExpress is above the roughly $95 launch price, so check what the listing includes.
