AYANEO has officially introduced the Pocket ACE, a new Android handheld that merges a nostalgic design with cutting-edge technology. Still maintaining a classic horizontal form factor, it runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon G3x Gen 2 chipset, so it has no trouble with either retro or modern mobile games.
AYANEO Unveils Pocket ACE: 4.5″ 1620 × 1080 IPS Display & Snapdragon G3x Gen 2 Power
The Pocket ACE is equipped with a 4.5-inch IPS panel with a 3:2 aspect ratio and 1620 × 1080 resolution. To evoke the nostalgia of vintage handheld consoles, this screen size still delivers sharp visuals, even for pixel-based games or more graphically intense titles. Internally, the Snapdragon G3x Gen 2 promises high CPU performance with fluid gameplay at high frame rates thanks to its powerful GPU. AYANEO claims to outperform most Android gaming handhelds, sitting alongside premium gaming smartphones.
The phone allows for relatively long gaming sessions thanks to its 6000mAh battery with 40W fast charge support. Effective power management increases longevity, allowing it to be a go-to for gaming on the go. The control scheme is a mix of both old and new. The top-mounted D-pad and classic style Select/Start buttons add to its retro charm, and the ABXY buttons have a toggle for Japanese and Western layouts, allowing for individual user preference. The addition of Hall Effect joysticks and triggers improves precision and ensures no drift problems develop over time.
Providing an even more immersive experience, rely on the Pocket ACE’s quality 0916B linear motor, which delivers haptic feedback that makes games even more engaging, particularly in racing and action games. The vibration effects provide a more engaging and tactile gaming experience. AYANEO has announced plans to launch the Pocket ACE through an Indiegogo campaign in the near future, giving gamers the opportunity to support and acquire this innovative handheld device.
