  • Retroid confirmed that its upcoming vertical handheld will have a 3.92-inch AMOLED screen.
  • That’s likely the same panel as the AYANEO Pocket DMG, which is widely considered the best of its size.
  • The device will launch this Spring alongside a clamshell foldable with a 5.5-inch display.

Retroid is gearing up for two big releases in the next few months, with the Retroid Pocket Flip 2 gaining most of the attention so far. However, with the screen now revealed for the smaller vertical handheld, it’s looking like it might be a strong contender for one of the best handhelds you can buy.

The Retroid Pocket Classic will have a 3.92-inch AMOLED display with a resolution of 1240 x 1080. That’s the same panel as the AYANEO Pocket DMG, which is largely considered to have the best screen of any vertical handheld on the market. It offers excellent colors and solid integer scaling for most older consoles and handhelds. It’s rumored to be the same component used for the smaller screen on the LG Wing.
