Retroid has now shared more details about the Pocket Mini, its future rival to the likes of the Anbernic RG40XX H. Not only has the company confirmed more device specifications, but it has also revealed that the OLED display-wielding gaming handheld will be available in multiple colour options at launch.

Hardly any time has passed from the official debut of the Retroid Pocket Mini. To recap, the company revealed the device last week as its first new gaming handheld since the Pocket 4 and Pocket 4 Pro that arrived last December. Since then, Anbernic has released the RG40XX V, a vertical alternative of sorts to not just the RG40XX H but also the Pocket Mini.

Perhaps not coincidentally, Retroid decided to share new information about its 4-inch gaming handheld on the day that Anbernic started selling the RG40XX V worldwide. At any rate, the former has confirmed that the Pocket Mini will measure 165 x 77 x 17 mm. While Retroid compares these dimensions to the older Pocket 2S (curr. $149.99 on Amazon), they also mean that the Pocket Mini is about the same size as the Anbernic RG40XX H, which measures 163 x 79 x 16 mm.

Added to that, the Pocket Mini will be just 7 g heavier than the RG40XX H at 215 g. Although Retroid has not outlined a release date yet, it has now shown the device in six colour options. Presumably, all colours will ship with the same OLED display panel that Retroid confirmed last week, which will span 3.7-inches across with a 1,280 x 960-pixel resolution and a 4:3 aspect ratio.
