Mangmi Pocket Max Reveals 8,000mAh Battery and Custom Button Colors

Mangmi has unveiled critical new specifications for its upcoming Pocket Max handheld gaming device, confirming an 8,000mAh battery capacity and finalized button color configurations based on community feedback. These disclosures follow December's initial hardware reveal that included a 7-inch 144Hz OLED display and Snapdragon 865 processor.

The 8,000mAh battery represents a significant power reservoir for portable gaming, matching the capacity found in AYN's Odin 3 handheld. This parity exists despite key hardware differences between the devices: While both share identical battery specifications, the Pocket Max offers a larger 7-inch display compared to Odin 3's 6-inch panel, but utilizes the older Snapdragon 865 processor versus Odin 3's more advanced Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.

Mangmi emphasized that the substantial battery should translate to extended gameplay sessions, though actual endurance will depend on factors like display brightness and processor load during intensive gaming scenarios. Battery performance comparisons between devices with similar capacities but different hardware configurations will be essential for potential buyers evaluating these competing handhelds.

Button color configurations underwent community-driven refinement through Mangmi's social media polling. For the white model , users preferred maintaining the original design with white buttons featuring orange accent markings. The black variant will ship with black buttons and white text instead of the initially proposed orange accents. The Retro GB color option remains unchanged from its original design.

Notably absent from the announcement were details on pricing, availability timelines, and thermal management specifications. Based on Mangmi's previous release pattern with the Mangmi Air X, industry observers anticipate a pre-order campaign with early-bird pricing preceding the retail launch. As retro handheld competition intensifies, these final specifications position the Pocket Max as a display-focused alternative to higher-powered competitors, with battery endurance potentially becoming its standout feature.
