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 5.5” 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 much point on a folding device of that size if it doesn’t have a second screen, seems like lot of space wasted.

It also protects the screen.

Yeah sure, and that’s is cool in smaller devices where on top of protecting it, it makes the device more portable. But at this size, I don’t know man.

Nah, I just want a regular single android screen with the controls on the flip like it is. I don't want the controls pushed to the outside. I also need the buttons and screen to be safe if I toss it in my pocket. It is a great form factor really.
