Good news, I am holding the A330 in my hands!
We have a test model in the office, expect release for sale soon!

I have played some of the games briefly and it is GOOD.

The build quality is more PSP than Dingoo, I especially like its meaty shoulder buttons and its construction is pleasingly solid.

Sound and video are surprisingly good, you could easily watch movies or TV on it.

You can see a size comparison, it is bigger and sturdier than an old Dingoo that we have, but the screen is also a bit bigger which is a plus. It's more portable and pocket-sized than the PSP, but still feels substantial in your hands.

Hi mrzilch and everyone else,

I'm afraid I can't give a date yet. The factory is producing them now, we need to wait for this.

All I can say is thank you for your patience.

As soon as I know more I will post it here first, ok!

Rose-Li, maybe you can talk to Gemei about the MP5/Game Zone thingy below the screen, i think it looks horrible (the "MP5". not the A330!), like from a cheap MP3 player. I?ll paint it black for sure...
Also, maybe you can ask for an english contact address so devs could get in contact with Gemei, offering assistance with a possible Linux port and stuff? Oh, and if they?ll deliver an SDK like they did with the A320?

I know it?s asked much, but possible homebrew = lots of sales

if there will be linux support and an n64 emulator for this, I realy would think about getting one ^^

Am i right, that the A330 has a square display? Seems like all movies need heavy scaling and the games in the video review SCiENcE postet definitely have the wrong aspect ratio.

In Chinese forums I did read a couple of times that gemei confirmed that in the final version the "MP5"-lettering will be removed

Right, the videos seem horribly squeezed...

The video reviews were very squashed, you can see from the photos it is not square.

Found a video of TV-Out. Its possible it could be component HD as both the TV-out and the headphone leads have wire coming out of them.

wow - serious? reliable source?

Hi all,

Quick update with a little more information.

Internet games = downloaded games, not games played over the internet.

The L + R bumpers appear to be working for most if not all games (past dingoo's etc didn't always benefit from this)

I played double dragon and final fight. Both play well on here.

The display is rectangular, not square.

There is TV out, headphones and micro usb connections at the top.

As for questions about SDK's, in time we will ask the manufacturer, but as you know they are very secretive about the chipset etc.

@mrzilch: A russian user, from emulate.su site, had discovered and later published about this on saturday. Shortly after this, the russian fansite of Dingoo and us, from Dingoo Brasil, published also this. It seems very hot this SDK!
