Tectoy, a prominent Brazilian company with a history of distributing Sega consoles, is venturing back into the handheld market with its new Zeenix Pro and Zeenix Lite portable PCs. Initially launching in Brazil, a global release is planned.
I first encountered these devices at Gamescom Latam in Brazil, where Tectoy's booth drew significant crowds eager to try the handhelds. While this enthusiasm is promising, it's not a definitive measure of quality.
A more informative assessment comes from the device specifications:
Feature | Zeenix Lite | Zeenix Pro |
---|---|---|
Screen | 6-inch Full HD, 60 Hz | 6-inch Full HD, 60 Hz |
Processor | AMD 3050e processor | Ryzen 7 6800U |
Graphics Card | AMD Radeon Graphics | AMD RDNA Radeon 680m |
RAM | 8GB | 16GB |
Storage | 256GB SSD (microSD) | 512GB SSD (microSD) |
For a more detailed breakdown of gaming performance, including graphics settings and frame rates for popular titles, visit the official Zeenix website. Their presentation is more comprehensive than this summary.
Both the Zeenix Pro and Lite include the Zeenix Hub, a software application that integrates games from multiple stores into a single interface. However, using the Hub is entirely optional.
Pricing and a precise Brazilian release date remain unannounced, but we'll provide updates as soon as information becomes available. Stay tuned to Pocket Gamer for the latest news.
