Just as Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days come to an end, Retroid decided to do something rather unexpected. Announced this morning, three of the company’s most popular devices are now on sale, which include the Retroid Pocket 5, Pocket Flip 2, and the Pocket Mini V2.
This marks the first time we’ve seen these handhelds go on sale directly from Retroid. Usually, the only way you’re able to get them at a discount is by hoping to find the right AliExpress store paired with a discount code.
Usually we see these kinds of sales and discounts occur before a new device is announced, and that definitely might be the case here. There’s already speculation in the RH Discord that this could be a sign that the Retroid Pocket 6 is finally getting ready to launch.
However, it’s also entirely possible that this is just a flash sale, considering that the 2025 holiday shopping season is fast approaching. Or maybe, just maybe, it’s a little bit of both, as Retroid wants to clear out some existing inventory while offering some pretty sweet discounts for potential customers.
No matter the reason, it’s awesome to see that you can get the Retroid Pocket 5 for under $200 for the first time. We don’t know how long Retroid plans to keep this sale going for. So if you’ve been on the fence and want to pick up a new handheld ahead of the holiday rush, now’s your chance.
