Anbernic has sold retro handheld game consoles, game controllers and accessories since 2017.
Saving here comes mostly from the referral program and from buying carefully, because a change-of-mind return loses 25% of the order, with a $35 minimum, before any label fee.
Anbernic's handhelds run on either Linux or Android, and the lineup spans several shapes: compact vertical units, clamshell dual-screen models with a stylus stored inside the body, a rotating-screen design and larger Android devices. The store also groups models with OLED displays, a 4:3 screen ratio or metal finishes.
The newest dual-screen model, the RG DDS, pairs a 4.7-inch upper display with a 4-inch lower one and runs Android 16 on a Snapdragon G2 Gen 2 chip. At the compact end, the RG 35 is a Linux handheld with a 3.5-inch screen, dual TF card slots taking up to 256 GB and a battery rated for up to 7 hours. Newer Android models ship with Anbernic software such as RG Home and ANBERNIC AI, and the site hosts firmware updates and a shopping guide.

More about shopping at Anbernic
Shipping refunds
Shipping charges aren't refunded unless the order was delivered incorrectly.
Return cost
Anbernic deducts 25% of the order, at least $35, plus any label fee from a change-of-mind refund to the original payment.
Warranty
Handhelds carry a 12-month warranty; defects in the first 15 days are returned free, and after that you get free replacement repair parts.
Cancellation
You can cancel within 12 hours of ordering, as long as the order hasn't shipped.
Worldwide
Anbernic ships worldwide with costs added at checkout, though items from overseas warehouses only go to listed countries.
Anbernic's store runs on Shopify, so any discount code you have goes into the box in the checkout page's order summary.
Check the shipping line at that step too, since it's calculated from the handheld's weight and size and your destination.
If a friend referred you, the 2% referral discount is the saving to look for.
The cancellation window is only 12 hours, so confirm the console model before paying; a change-of-mind return later costs at least $35.
Pre-order devices like the RG DDS, expected to ship from December 10, 2026, need the same care.
