It looks like GPD is just about set to launch the Pocket 4, which will take the place of the Pocket 3 (currently priced at $679.95 on Amazon). The Pocket 3 has been around for more than three years now, so it's no surprise that the new model will have some improved features.
Powerful Upgrades
According to the latest updates from the company, the upcoming Pocket 4 will be equipped with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 from AMD's latest Strix Point line. This means the Pocket 4 will benefit from a robust Radeon 890M integrated graphics processor, which will support a stunning 2,560 x 1,600-pixel resolution on a 144 Hz IPS display measuring just 8.8 inches.
Additional Options
Interestingly, GPD is also planning to provide the Pocket 4 with the older Ryzen 7 8840U APU. This choice seems to be a strategy to keep the initial price of the Pocket 4 more affordable. Even with the Ryzen 7 8840U, users can expect much better performance compared to the Intel Pentium Silver N6000, Pentium Gold 7505, or Core i7-1195G7 that were options for the Pocket 3.
Memory and Launch Plans
Moreover, GPD intends to offer the Pocket 4 with a maximum of 64 GB of LPDDR5 RAM running at 7,500 MT/s. However, the company notes that the availability of the 64 GB RAM models might be limited to its upcoming Indiegogo campaign and may not make it to the final retail version. While no specific launch date for the crowdfunding initiative has been shared, we believe it might happen before the year wraps up.
