MagicX XU Mini M Plus revealed with performance upgrades to rival Anbernic RG28XX

It is no secret that MagicX is preparing to release new retro gaming handhelds. For context, details of an updated XU Mini M emerged last week, shortly after a video revealing three forthcoming MagicX devices surfaced online. It now seems that the former may arrive under a different name to the XU Mini M, though.

While MagicX will keep what was previously known as the 'Crystal Collections Edition' within the XU Mini M family, it will not launch as the XU Mini M Crystal Collections Edition. Instead, the company intends to offer new colours as the XU Mini M Plus, stylised as 'XU Mini M+'. Reportedly, the name change coincides with a series of improvements over the existing XU Mini M, which ships with a Rockchip RK3562 chipset, 1 GB of LPDDR4 RAM, a 2,600 mAh battery and a 2.8-inch IPS display like the Anbernic RG28XX (curr. $59.99 on Amazon).

As far as we can tell, the XU Mini M Plus will launch with the same display and battery capacity as its sibling. However, MagicX plans to upgrade its SoC to the Allwinner A133 Plus, which should be joined by 2 GB of RAM and new custom firmware aided by Vulkan to maximise performance. Unfortunately, other details remain unknown for now, other than that MagicX intends to release the XU Mini M Plus in October.
