A retro portable gaming console with an unusual processor

The company Sipeed recently prepared a very interesting portable game console. It is the Lichee Pocket 4A console, which allows you to play retro games, and its shape resembles the popular Game Boy Advance console. The interesting portable game console Retroid Pocket 4 Pro is powered by an unusual mobile processor. Namely, it uses the relatively powerful XuanTie TH1520 processor, which is based on the RISC-V architecture. This data is calculated with C910 processor cores with a frequency of 1.85 gigahertz. So it's no surprise that the new laptop is running the open-source Debian operating system.

The Sipeed Lichee Pocket 4A compact portable game console is available with LPDDR4C system memory with a capacity of eight gigabytes and 16 gigabytes. Up to 128 gigabytes of built-in space is available for data storage. Of course, we can also expand this if necessary. There is also a rich range of connections, including WiFi 6 and Bluetooth 54 wireless connections.

As already mentioned, the Sipeed Lichee Pocket 4A portable gaming console is extremely compact. Therefore, it is not surprising that it is equipped with a 7-inch or 17.8-centimeter screen with a resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels. For web conferences, a web camera with a resolution of five million pixels is available. The novelty measures 18 x 11 x 1.5 centimeters in total and weighs only 490 grams. The Sipeed Lichee Pocket 4A Portable Gaming Console will be on sale soon, but unfortunately the price has not been revealed yet.
