Ricoh GR IIIx Production Ends October, GR IVx Still Months Away
Ricoh is stopping production of the GR IIIx and its variants in October due to parts availability ending, with the GR IVx not arriving until winter 2026 at the earliest. The 40mm-equiv model has had persistent stock problems, so the gap between production end and successor launch is worth noting if you've been sitting on the fence.

Ricoh GR IVx Confirmed: 40mm f/2.8, 26MP APS-C, Due Winter 2026
Ricoh has confirmed the GR IVx is in development, a 40mm f/2.8 equivalent companion to the existing 28mm GR IV. The new lens uses 8 elements in 6 groups with 3 aspherics, a more complex design than the GR IIIx it effectively replaces. Sensor steps up from the GR IIIx's 24MP FSI chip to the GR IV's 26MP BSI CMOS, and the body adds 5-axis stabilisation, the larger DB-120 battery, and WiFi 5. Full specs are published, suggesting development is well advanced. Launch is Winter 2026 or later; no price yet.
