Already opened a ticket with Anbernic support. Hoping to hear back from them.

Based on further reading and research this is 100% a know issue. https://droix.net/blogs/is-your-anbernic-device-safe-or-not/#reports-on-the-internet

Edit: Support got back. Sent them video of the system not working, and this image. They offered a free replacement. Seeing how this plays out.
