Not very MagicX-al
August 30th, 2025 by the hha team
The 2025 summer is almost gone... But there's some MagicX in the air! This year's last device to be released in August is the Magicx XU20 V32. Check out this Android 10 device here and see how it compares with some compelling alternatives, specifically, the Anbernic RG-35XX pro (which you'll probably be better off with anyways... but we're admittedly biased towards Anbernic, so take this with a grain of salt).
The specs don't lie (or do they?), so go check them out and enjoy the rest of your summer gaming!
