Update []:
Well, that didn't take long at all! Following yesterday's announcement, Retroid has now revealed the first real look at the Retroid Nova, along with a more complete overview of the screen specs.
As shown in the image, the device features XYAB buttons, a D-Pad, and dual analogue sticks, with the sticks in the photo positioned at the bottom of the machine.
Previously, for the Retroid Pocket 6, Retroid gave players the option to choose whether they want the analogue sticks on the top or bottom of the device, so it will be interesting to see whether the same will be offered here. The company also hasn't revealed any of the other colour variants yet, with the only model being a transparent grey.
As for the newly revealed screen specs, the device will have a 4.5-inch AMOLED with a native resolution of 1280 x 960 and a 120Hz refresh rate.
There's still no word on what chipset will be powering it, but given the pace of these announcements, I'm sure that will also be revealed in no time at all.
Original Story []: After a few months of relative silence, Retroid has just shared a few initial details about its latest emulation-based handheld in a brand-new tease on social media.
The Retroid Pocket Nova, as the manufacturer calls it, is said to feature a "Modern OLED" screen with a 4:3 aspect ratio, and will be the company's first horizontal 4:3 handheld since the Retroid Pocket Mini debacle.
In case you don't remember, this was the controversy that saw users encountering "unfixable" screen-scaling issues, leading to the discovery that the company had misled customers about the Pocket Mini's native screen resolution and had achieved the aspect ratio through a mix of hardware and software trickery, as opposed to using a proper 4:3 screen.
In that situation, Retroid ended up losing a lot of goodwill and trust due to its initial handling of the situation, but eventually caved in, issuing limited refunds and replacement screens to affected customers, before following this up with a revision of the device, dubbed the Retroid Pocket Mini V2 (which now appears to be discontinued).
As things stand, Retroid hasn't yet released any details on the Nova's screen size, with community analysis speculating it could be a 4.4-inch screen; nor has it released any internal specs.
Instead, pretty much all we have to go on is a partially obscured image of what this new device will look like, which, frustratingly, features the control panel blacked out, likely to pave the way for a drip-feed of information over the coming few weeks.
