"The Spectrum Handheld and The C64 Handheld eschew the productivity aspects of the Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum to focus on gaming, with each portable coming with its own collection of 25 retro titles that can be expanded using a microSD card."
"Both handhelds include a 4.3-inch screen with a generous 800x480 resolution, remappable D-pads, action buttons, and additional function buttons, stereo speakers, a headphone jack, and a three-hour battery that can be recharged over USB-C."
"Shipping isn't expected to start until October 2026 at the earliest, but you can preorder The C64 and The Spectrum through Funstock starting at $129.99 each."
