Retroid Dual Screen: Shipping Date and OTA Update Details
It's now official Retroid proposes to ship the Dual Screen add-on starting August 19. Retroid has finally revealed an update on shipping with its Dual Screen add-on. The shipping began on August 19 after the earlier date of August 5 ended without any shipment. The company authorized the delay because of the last batch of USB cables which arrived late.

- A newer version is in the works for the Retroid Pocket 4 Pro, though anticipated for later release.
Whether these updates are prerequisites for Dual Screen capability or unrelated in introducing additional features and bug fixes is still unknown.
