Handheld gaming manufacturer AYANEO made quite a few announcements during its 2022-2026 Strategy Sharing Conference. The event was live streamed yesterday and a recap can be viewed in the video above. Below are some of the key highlights from the conference.

Android products:

• AYANEO Pocket VERT: This is a vertically-oriented Android handheld with a high-definition screen and premium craftsmanship that the company is also billing as "a collectible handheld artwork".
• AYANEO Pocket DS: Drawing inspiration from the Nintendo DS, the Pocket DS is a flip up dual screen Android handheld gaming device. It is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon's flagship gaming platform, features a high refresh rate OLED main screen and a large retro 4:3 ratio secondary screen combination, and packs a self-developed dual screen interaction software. It is currently under mass production.
• AYANEO Gaming Pad: This Android gaming tablet features an transparent glass back cover design, CNC all metal frame, and an 8.3 "2K 120Hz LCD gaming display screen. It is said to "officially debut soon". There will also be a telescoping game controller compatible with the tablet that will be sold separately.

​

Windows products:

• AYANEO FLIP 11: This is the company's first mini gaming laptop. Its form factor is said to be inspired that of flip phones and will include "innovative interaction", and full-size keyboard.
• AYANEO AM01S: A mini PC that features a foldable secondary screen design, equipped with AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 platform and AMD Ryzen 7 8745HS processor, also equipped with AMD Ryzen 7 8845HS. The 7-8945HS processor version will also be available for players to choose from. A "yellow duck" coloured variant will also be available in collaboration with B. Duck.
• AYANEO AM03: This is another mini PC that is said to pack a minimalist and artistic design ethos while being powerful.

​

KONKR announcements:

• KONKR sub-brand: AYANEO now has a sub-brand named KONKR, dedicated to release high-performance and cost-effective devices.
• KONKR Pocket Fit: Among the first devices to be announced under the KONKR sub-brand, this Android handheld features a Snapdragon processor and a high refresh rate screen.
• KONKR Fit: This is KONKR's first Windows handheld. It features a 7-inch screen design, a comfortable grip, and is equipped with a 80Wh large battery.

​

Surprise announcements:

• CODE R: A temporary code name, CODE R represents AYANEO's brand new entry-level product line. Devices in this line will blend retro style with high-end texture.
• AYANEO CODE R-1: As the first product in AYANEO's new entry-level product line, AYANEO CODE R-1 will be an entry-level handheld and more will be revealed about it soon.
• AYANEO NEXT 2: The company teased its next flagship device, the AYANEO NEXT 2. This high-end handheld gaming PC will be equipped with AMD AI Max+395, a large screen, and a built-in super large battery.
• AYANEO Phone: An interesting and unexpected announcement was AYANEO's first mobile phone. While not much has been revealed during its tease, the AYANEO Phone appears to pack a sliding mechanism akin to the Xperia Play to provide physical controls on a gaming phone.

These were some announcements! Are you interested in any of the devices teased?

 

[Reploid]

I've expected 4ds

 

[sKoMo]

I hope "Pocket Ds" will receive linux support.

 

[Flame]

Look at those ugly hands on the Pocket DS, i do miss Gateway 3DS days and those sexy hands.... tho i don't miss Gateway 3DS and its ugly practices

 

[nxwing]

I'm honestly more excited with their KONKR sub brand since I'd like to see more affordable stuff. I do sorta wish they would focus on the lower budget Linux handhelds that Anbernic seems to have control of but this is a step in the right direction.

 

[KingVamp]

The music they used, it as if they reveal something that save the world. lol

 

[emigre]

KONKR sounds like an eastern European VR porn website.

 

[Bladexdsl]

they aren't even waiting a month to release new e-waste now!

 

[Kioku]

Indifferent. They announce too many projects that they'll never commit to. We'll likely see a release, but then it's on to the next one.

 

[hippy dave]

Will the KONKR devices be "budget-friendly" enough to be able to buy two of them, hang them from strings, then swing them at each other to see which survives longest?

 

[raxadian]

As my 3DS still works I have no need of a dual screen Android thing. Although if there is emulators that use the dual screen for like Wii U stuff that would be neat.

Just not something I think it exists for Android right now?

Should have made the thing run on Linux instead.

 

[Necron]

Oh more Ayaneo products that will be discontinued in 5 seconds.

The phone looks interesting tho, as I'm not aware any other companies have gone the xperia route in years.

This really reminds me of the days Sony released weird or odd looking electronic hardware ,not being afraid of trying

 

[AlexMCS]

They announce too many projects that they'll never commit to.

That's the point of their products. It's like laptops. Get one now, stick with it until you must replace.
Still chugging on my Ayaneo 2.

The amount of devices they announce is huge though.

 

[Exnor]

I do like the dual screen setups. I still wish that Nintendo did that with the Switch 2

Any info on the prices?

Edit: According to chatGPT: " The AYANEO Pocket DS is expected to be priced between $275 and $415, with a full price reveal coming soon. It is set to launch later this year."

I can nearly guarantee none of these will fit in the pocket.

 

[Scarlet]

As my 3DS still works I have no need of a dual screen Android thing. Although if there is emulators that use the dual screen for like Wii U stuff that would be neat.

Just not something I think it exists for Android right now?

Should have made the thing run on Linux instead.

Drastic, Citra, and Cemu are all on Android now. Drastic and Citra I can personally say run well, and were a great fit for the Surface Duo. Though that worked by having its two screens be detected as a single screen in-software for simplicity, dunno how that would work here.

Not tried Cemu in a while but it was making strides as far as I know. Not sure how they implemented the dual screen stuff.

 

[titan_tim]

Really curious about the Konkr price. The pictures doesn't make it look very pocket friendly, even though the name is the "pocket fit".

 

[raxadian]

Not sure how they implemented the dual screen stuff

Probably as a second monitor? Dunno if any DS, 3DS or Wii U emulator has second monitor support on Android. Stuff like that does exist for Linux.

 

[Veho]

KONKR sounds like a Scottish person yelling the name of that squirrel.

I wonder what "cost effective" means.
