The Retroid Pocket Flip was launched with essentially the same specifications as the Pocket 3+. As the name suggests, the product's form factor allows it to fold in half, with the bottom panel functioning as the controller. The company has now announced its successor, the Pocket Flip 2. Although the pricing details are yet to be revealed, the Flip 2 does feature a bunch of notable upgrades which are likely to make the device command a slightly higher price tag than its ~$160 predecessor.

One of the biggest differences between the Flip and Flip 2 is certainly the substantially higher processing power that the Flip 2 has on tap, courtesy of its Snapdragon 865 or Dimensity 1100 SoC paired with 8 GB of memory. Both of these chips are undoubtedly far more capable than the Unisoc T618 SoC found in the original version, with the amount of memory being twice as much. That said, the Dimensity 1100 (Mali G77) variant will likely have the upper hand in GPU performance compared to the Snapdragon 865 variant (Adreno 650). The display has also witnessed a serious improvement, now boasting a 1080p OLED panel that is 5.5-inches in size, with a peak brightness of 500 nits.
