Retroid’s next flagship handheld will have a much more powerful chip

The Retroid Pocket 5 is one of the most popular retro gaming handhelds on the market, but Qualcomm just gave us a sneak peek at a key upgrade to its likely successor. As part of the announcement for the new gaming-oriented SoCs, Qualcomm revealed that Retroid’s next flagship device will be one of the first devices to ship with the Snapdragon G2 Gen 2 processor.

While the company did not reveal the device’s name, it is very likely to be the Retroid Pocket 6. It’s been less than six months since the Retroid Pocket 5 was released, but with no date or renders to show alongside this reveal, it may be several months before Retroid finalizes the design.
