The wait is finally over for the Retro Handhelds crowd. If you’ve been staring at your pre-order dashboard for the Retroid Pocket Nova, wondering if your device is still in the same zip code as you, Retroid has officially dropped the shipping timeline.
Good news: the backlog won’t linger forever. Starting July 28th, Retroid begins shipping in color waves. They’re tackling the lineup in batches—Black first, followed by 16Bit, Crystal, GC, Ice Blue, Clear Purple, and finally Watermelon. Once that cycle finishes, they loop back to the top. Thanks to a dedicated assembly line, the team promises the entire pre-order queue should clear out in about three weeks.
Here’s a quick tip if you haven’t pulled the trigger yet: order now. Retroid is offering a free screen protector and back cover, but that sweet deal vanishes on August 1st.
One lingering cloud? Qualcomm’s industry-wide price hikes. Retroid is keeping a close eye on CPU costs, promising to notify you if prices need to adjust, though they’re confident for now. If you need more convincing before buying, check out their recent livestream for first impressions. Otherwise, keep an eye on your inbox—the Nova is coming.
