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.
These devices were showcased at Gamescom Latam, attracting significant attention and long queues at Tectoy's booth. While this enthusiasm is encouraging, it doesn't guarantee quality.
The key differences between the Pro and Lite models lie in their specifications (see table below):
Feature | Zeenix Lite | Zeenix Pro |
---|---|---|
Screen | 6-inch Full HD, 60Hz refresh rate | 6-inch Full HD, 60Hz refresh rate |
Processor | AMD 3050e processor | Ryzen 7 6800U |
Graphics Card | AMD Radeon Graphics | AMD RDNA Radeon 680m |
RAM | 8GB | 16GB |
Storage | 256GB SSD (microSD expandable) | 512GB SSD (microSD expandable) |
