Ayaneo has launched the KONKR Pocket Block, a vertical retro handheld priced at $89, featuring a 3.3-inch screen and MediaTek Helio G85 processor. While The Verge praised the related Pocket Advance for its GBA-like design, the new Block faces supply constraints due to a RAM shortage. Ayaneo’s CEO also dismissed rumors of a budget dual-screen device during a livestream, though insiders suggest development may continue.

The $5,300 Gaming Handheld: Luxury or Poor Value?

The $5,300 Gaming Handheld: Luxury or Poor Value?

Gizmodo questions Ayaneo’s Next 2 handheld, which can cost up to $5,300 with 128GB RAM and 2TB storage. Despite a premium 9-inch OLED screen and high-end controls, the piece argues the device is far pricier than capable gaming laptops or cheaper handhelds (e.g., the Xbox Ally X at $1,000, the Claw 8 EX AI+ at around $1,800). Memory shortages and the need to trade off graphical fidelity, frame rate, or battery life make such a device a luxury rather than a smart buy, suggesting most buyers should skip the $5k-plus price tag.
