Anbernic Manuals & User Guides

Anbernic is a leading designer and manufacturer of handheld retro gaming consoles, established in 2017 by Shenzhen YangLiMing Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. The brand has gained a massive following for its high-quality, affordable devices that allow gamers to play thousands of classic titles from systems such as NES, SNES, Sega Genesis, PlayStation, and Nintendo 64 on the go.

Known for models like the RG35XX, RG353V, and RG405M, Anbernic devices often feature dual TF card slots for storage expansion, high-quality IPS displays, and dual operating systems (Linux and Android) to maximize compatibility and performance. The company focuses on open-source emulation communities, providing hardware that supports popular custom firmwares while delivering ergonomic designs suitable for long gaming sessions.

• How do I add games to my Anbernic console?

  Insert a FAT32 formatted MicroSD card into the external card slot. The system will create platform-specific folders. Copy your game ROM files into the corresponding folders (e.g., GBA, PS1) and reinsert the card.

• How do I switch between Linux and Android systems on dual-boot models?

  On dual-system devices like the RG353V, inserting a system card into TF1 usually boots Linux. Removing the card or holding a specific function key (often "F") during boot will launch the Android OS.

• How should I charge my Anbernic handheld?

  Use a standard USB-A to USB-C cable with a 5V/1.5A or 5V/2A adapter. Avoid using high-power USB-C to USB-C fast chargers, as many retro handhelds do not support the PD protocol and may not charge.
