![]() ![]() Read our full review: Retroid Pocket 4 Pro Review That said, it’s one of the best sub $200 retro handhelds on the market right now, and I use mine every single week thanks to its portability and intuitive user experience. The only negatives I had with this handheld in my review was that the screen could have been better, especially when you compare it with the RG556’s AMOLED screen which is also cheaper and also has smaller bezels. However, that can be pushed closer to 6 if you’re playing on Gameboy, Mega Drive, NES and other less intense games. ![]() Because of its small size you do sacrifice battery life a little, with only 3.5 hours of battery life when playing PS2 games. That’s a lot of power for $199, and using that power with hall joysticks, analogue shoulder buttons and nice bouncy buttons makes for a pleasurable experience.īecause of its size too, it’s the perfect travel companion if you want to play your more power hungry retro consoles as easily as possible. There is a normal Pocket 4 version which comes in $50 cheaper, but the Pro version is certainly worth the upgrade, featuring a MediaTek Dimensity 1100 CPU, a Mali G77 GPU, 8GB’s of RAM, a 4.7″ touch screen display and 4000MAH’s of battery. If you’re new to GoRetroid products, then you’ll be glad to know they are one of the easiest retro handhelds to setup, thanks to the custom built setup process using Android which installs the emulators for you and has a launcher ready to go that looks just like a Nintendo Switch. Retroid have smashed it this year with their releases, but this is their flagship device, and it means business. ![]() The Retroid Pocket 4 Pro is an incredible handheld that launched at the start of 2014, with the ability to emulate Playstation 2 games impressively well within a portable form factor. The DPAD has been changed to a PS Vita like design which is very welcome, the analogue sticks are now hall joysticks making them feel far more premium, the action buttons have more travel to them, and so do the new shoulder buttons on the back. This device looks nearly identical to its older brother, the Retroid Pocket 2, but has a wide range of upgrades that takes it to a whole other level.įirstly, it now has upgraded specs, with enough power to emulate up to and including Gamecube games, PSP games and Dreamcast games incredibly well. The Retroid Pocket 2S felt like it came out of nowhere, and although I was underwhelmed when they revealed it, due to the lack of physical changes it has quickly impressed me after unboxing it. ![]()
