Source: keepretro.com (verified 2026-07-11) · corroborated by reviewed.com. The keepretro.com retailer page carries a "Product Specifications" block that names the exact model ("Model: MIYOO mini+ (plus)") and states a 3.5-inch IPS 640*480 screen, ARM Cortex-A7 dual-core 1.2G CPU, 3000mAh battery (5-6 hrs), built-in WiFi and Linux OS, with the base "no card no games" configuration at $52.99. The reviewed.com dated hands-on review corroborates the identical model and core specs (3.5-inch IPS 640 x 480, ARM Cortex-A7, 3000mAh, Custom Linux distribution) and cites a $63 purchase price for a bundled unit. The official miyoogame.com store returned HTTP 429 (rate-limited) on every fetch attempt so it could not serve as the primary source; the review's RAM (2GB LPDDR4x) and storage (32GB EMMC) figures conflict with this device's SigmaStar SSD202D platform and are uncorroborated, so those specs plus weight and battery-life-range were left null.
