AYANEO has officially launched pre-orders for its latest handheld gaming devices, the Pocket S2 and Pocket S2 Pro, through their Indiegogo campaign. This new iteration builds upon the strengths of the original Pocket S while introducing several enhancements. The Pocket S2 is now available with options for either 8GB or 12GB of RAM and storage capacity of up to 256GB.
In a surprising twist, AYANEO also unveiled the Pocket S2 Pro, which comes with even more powerful specifications. The Pro version features a larger 10,000mAh battery compared to the standard 8,000mAh battery of the S2, as well as support for up to 60W PD charging. It offers a 16GB RAM and 512GB storage configuration and has a detachable D-pad, showcasing AYANEO’s innovative approach to gaming hardware.
Both models are powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon G3 Gen 3 chip, ensuring robust performance for gaming enthusiasts. Additionally, the company has also announced two “Limited Edition” models for the Pocket S2 Pro: Retro Power and B.Duck color variants. The Retro Power edition has become a signature within AYANEO’s products, while the B.Duck edition introduces a playful partnership with a well-known toy brand dedicated to whimsical toy ducks.
Pricing for the Pocket S2 starts at $499, but during the Indiegogo campaign, consumers can pre-order it for $439. The Pocket S2 Pro has a campaign price of $559, before it returns to a retail price of $619. Shipping for pre-orders is anticipated to begin in late June, making it an exciting time for fans of handheld gaming.
