Overview
- AYANEO has begun pre-orders for the limited‑edition Pocket Air Mini IGS in two configurations priced at $129.99 for 2GB/32GB and $139.99 for 3GB/64GB.
- The Pocket Air Mini IGS lists hardware including a 2x Cortex‑A76 + 6x Cortex‑A55 CPU, Mali‑G76 MP4 GPU, a 4.2‑inch 1280×960 90Hz display, active cooling, and Hall Effect sensors on triggers and joysticks.
- AYANEO says the Mini IGS is officially licensed by IGS and comes with classic arcade games pre‑installed, distinguishing it from handhelds that include unverified ROM libraries.
- AYANEO also revealed the KONKR Pocket Block and billed it as the "world's first AI handheld," but the company has not published price, release timing, specs, or a clear description of the device's AI features.
- Industry coverage notes rising component costs have forced AYANEO to pause production on some models and observers say other makers and phones already offer on‑device AI, which undercuts novelty claims about the Pocket Block.
