At GDC 2025 in San Francisco, Ayaneo, a prominent Chinese company known for its handheld gaming devices since its founding in 2020, unveiled its first foray into Android gaming with two new devices. This move marks a significant expansion from their initial focus on Windows-based handheld gaming PCs to a broader product range that now includes Android-based hardware.
What Are the Two New Ayaneo Android Gaming Devices?
Ayaneo introduced the Ayaneo Gaming Pad, an Android gaming tablet, and the Ayaneo Pocket S2, a new handheld. Both devices leverage the power of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon G3 Gen 3 platform, positioning them as pioneers in utilizing this advanced hardware. This platform promises significant enhancements in CPU and GPU performance compared to its predecessors.
The Ayaneo Gaming Pad features an 8.3-inch LCD screen with a crisp 1440p resolution and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. It supports cutting-edge features like hardware-accelerated ray tracing and Snapdragon Game Super Resolution, enhancing the gaming experience. Additionally, it includes Wi-Fi 7 for superior online gaming connectivity. The device boasts a premium build with a glass back and a CNC-machined metal frame, alongside a 50MP main camera, a 13MP ultra-wide lens, and a 5MP front-facing camera, setting it apart in the gaming tablet market.
Complementing the tablet, the Ayaneo Pocket S2 is a sleek Android handheld with a 6.3-inch 1440p display. It comes equipped with an upgraded Hall-effect joystick, linear triggers, and dual X-axis motors for enhanced haptic feedback. The device runs on Ayaneo’s proprietary software, AyaSpace and AyaHome, which provide robust game management and customization options. Like the Gaming Pad, it benefits from the Snapdragon G3 Gen 3 platform, offering improved energy efficiency and performance, alongside features such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing.
