TL;DR
  • Retroid has announced that the Retroid Pocket G2 has been temporarily discontinued.
  • The company confirms that the OTA update for the handheld is still scheduled to roll out next week.
  • The Retroid Pocket Classic will get a $20 price hike on Thursday.

The ongoing memory shortage is having far-reaching implications for companies across the consumer tech landscape. Gaming handhelds, in particular, have been hit fairly hard by the rising costs of RAM. Just last month, popular handheld maker Retroid announced it would discontinue the 12GB model of the Pocket 6 due to the surge in memory pricing. Now the team has decided to discontinue another one of its handhelds.
