Very often you see a horizontal portable game console’s screen comes in the form of rectangle. In most cases, a “near” squarish screen can be found in a vertical handheld game console instead. The Powkiddy team has taken a different path this time around by introducing a squarish screen horizontal portable game console, in the RGB30. Like the many different models (i.e. Powkiddy RG10 Max, etc.), the RGB30 is designed to be played horizontally. However, it has a 720 by 720 resolution 4 inch IPS screen, making it looks pretty squarish in this case.

This machine is built using the efficient Rockchips RK3566 quad-core ARM Cortex A55 chipset. Furthermore, it is equipped with LPDDR4 1GB RAM too. This makes the console capable to play a wide range of retro game brands ranging from GBA up to PS, N64 games. Measuring at ~14.5 x 8.65 x 1.8cm, it is possible to slot this console into a pocket making it friendly to travel with. It comes with a HDMI port too. This allows the machine to conveniently hook up to a larger display without any additional conversion. Additionally, there is also a USB-C port for charge and an OTG port for connecting to other USB peripherals.

The Powkiddy RGB30 is also built-in with WIFI 5G and Bluetooth. This enable the machine to easily connect to a network without going through a wifi dongle or so. And with its 4,100 mAh battery capacity, it is possible to be entertained by a wide range of retro games for up to 8 hours. To enable a more convenience way to organise games, this machine is built-in with two TF Card Slots. One is to specifically used for hosting the Linux OS and another for the games instead.
