The OneXSugar Pockets is an upcoming retro handheld with a 4:3 foldable display

OneXPlayer is rapidly establishing itself as an organization that is not afraid to get bizarre as hell. (Take, for instance, its transforming dual-screen gaming portable.) Its newest enterprise is one other retro gaming handheld that, at first look, appears to be like like an ordinary dual-screen mannequin. However the Android-powered OneXSugar Pockets makes use of a single foldable display as an alternative.

The gadget was teased by way of a 54-second video on the Chinese language video-sharing platform Bilibili. Retro Handhelds reports that the Pockets makes use of an 8.01-inch OLED with a 2,480 x 1,860 decision. (That is a 4:3 facet ratio when unfolded.) The video additionally reveals an asymmetrical analog stick structure with a D-pad and 4 motion buttons.

Given foldable telephones’ long-term durability concerns, we aren’t essentially betting on the OneXSugar Pockets being a smart buy. We additionally do not understand how a lot it’s going to value. (The aforementioned bizarre dual-screen gadget retails for a whopping $799.) However on the very least, do not be shocked if the novel kind issue finally ends up sparking just a few copycats within the aggressive retro gaming business.
