Why the RG406H

If you're looking for next-gen performance in manageable size, you're in the right place. The octa-core T820, 8 GB RAM and 128 GB UFS 2.2 make the system fast and responsive. The 4-inch 960×720 IPS screen looks sharp, active cooling keeps things cool during longer sessions and everything just feels smooth. RGB lighting and large Hall joysticks give that extra bit of experience.

You connect the RG406H to an external display via 1080p DisplayPort if desired, and you easily expand up to 2 TB with a microSD.
