Some additional details concerning the XU Retro XU20 V32, including early bird pricing and some potential color options, have been released by Redditor u/N4riN4ri in a couple of Reddit posts. This information has been compiled below:

XU Retro XU20 V32: Early Bird Pricing and Specifications

Early Bird Pricing XU20 V32

The first 600 units are subject to a very tantalizing early-bird price of $48. Multiple details of the handled were also shared in the post, which can be found below:

• Display: 3.2″ 1024×768 resolution touchscreen
• Processor: Allwinner A133P @ 1.8GHZ
• GPU: PowerVR GE8300
• RAM: 2GB DDR4
• Storage: Supports microSD card expansion up to 512GB
• Battery: 3200mAh Li-Po
• Connectivity: 2.4GHZ WiFi
• Software: Android 10 with a modified Dawn Launcher (Dawn Fork)
• Audio: Stereo Speakers, 3.5mm Audio Jack
• Extras: Vibration motor

The device comes in a vertical form factor, weighing in at 160g and with dimensions of 112 x 83 x 24mm.

The screen is especially notable, as it matches the resolution of the very popular TrimUI Brick at a similar price, making it a potential competitor in the budget-minded retro handheld market. All of the above specs in an Android-based handheld make for a potentially tantalizing option for retro gamers on a budget.

Potential Color Options

XU Retro XU20 V32 Color Options Poll

A second post details some potential color options, including a link to a poll where users can select which color options they would prefer to see for the device. Redditor u/N4riN4ri specifies that they were asked to make this poll to see what the community prefers, and that XU Retro will select three to four of the most popular colors for mass production. The color options include:

• Black
• Tan
• Blue-Green
• Leaf Green
• Purple
• Magenta

As far as affordable Android touchscreen handhelds go, the XU20 V32 could be a winner depending on the build quality, especially in a market starving for high-quality Android-based handhelds at a budget-minded price. It feels like the TrimUI Brick is the current king to topple, but this might be one to keep your eye on.
