This reintroduction follows a period when the 12GB RAM option was unavailable due to escalating memory costs.

Retroid has confirmed the availability of a new configuration for its Pocket 6 handheld gaming device, featuring 12GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. This model is now on sale for $279.
The reintroduction comes months after the company ceased sales of the original 12GB RAM variant, which included 256GB of storage. That discontinuation, which occurred in March, was attributed to a "RAM crisis" characterized by skyrocketing memory costs.
While the new 12GB RAM model offers less internal storage than its predecessor, it maintains key features of the Retroid Pocket 6 line. These include a capable Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and a 120Hz OLED screen. The device also comes equipped with a microSD card slot, allowing users to expand storage beyond the internal 128GB.
Other Retroid Pocket 6 models are available with a starting price of $244. The company made the announcement regarding the return of the 12GB RAM option via Discord.
According to Android Authority, the Retroid Pocket 6 is considered one of the leading Android handhelds on the market.
