The handheld will be available in two different models and four colourways:

  • Ice Blue
  • Black
  • GC (an obvious nod to the Nintendo GameCube)
  • 16-Bit US (a reference to the Super Nintendo's US design)

There are two separate models, each featuring a different SoC:

  • First model: Snapdragon 865 SoC (from the Retroid Pocket Mini and Pocket 5)
  • Second model: MediaTek D1100 SoC (from the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro)

Both models share the following specs:

  • A 5.5โ€ 1080p AMOLED screen
  • 8GB Low Power DDR4X RAM
  • 128 GB Universal Flash Storage
  • Android 13 OS

However, differences exist:

  • The Snapdragon SoC model offers faster charging speed
  • The D1100 SoC model uses a newer version of Bluetooth

GoRetroid has stated that pricing details and pre-order dates will be announced soon.


What do you think of these specs?

I don't see the point of this when there's this, which includes a bottom screen. It seems like a major missed opportunity.
