Ayaneo, a Chinese company renowned for its handheld gaming devices, made waves at GDC 2025 in San Francisco by unveiling its first Android gaming devices. Founded in 2020, Ayaneo initially captured the market with its Windows-based handheld gaming PCs. Over the years, the company has broadened its horizons, introducing a range of impressive gaming hardware, including these new Android devices.
What Are the Two New Ayaneo Android Gaming Devices?
Ayaneo has introduced two exciting Android gaming devices: the Ayaneo Gaming Pad, an Android gaming tablet, and the Ayaneo Pocket S2, a new handheld. Both devices are powered by the cutting-edge Qualcomm 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 hardware-accelerated ray tracing and Snapdragon Game Super Resolution, ensuring top-notch graphics performance. With Wi-Fi 7 connectivity, the tablet guarantees faster and more stable online gaming experiences. The device boasts a sleek design with a glass back and a CNC-machined metal frame, complemented by a robust camera system that includes a 50MP main camera, a 13MP ultra-wide lens, and a 5MP front-facing camera. This makes the Ayaneo Gaming Pad a standout choice among gaming tablets for its high-end camera capabilities.
The Ayaneo Pocket S2, on the other hand, is a compact Android handheld with a 6.3-inch 1440p display. It features upgraded Hall-effect joysticks, linear triggers, and dual X-axis motors for enhanced haptic feedback, offering a more immersive gaming experience. The handheld is equipped with Ayaneo's proprietary gaming software, AyaSpace and AyaHome, which facilitate game management and customization. Like the Gaming Pad, it utilizes the Snapdragon G3 Gen 3 platform, improving energy efficiency and performance while enabling advanced features such as hardware-accelerated ray tracing.
