I think a PC with slide mechanism could be considered retro, since it does give me nostalgia. I am a Japanese who used to love Sony products, and they have created few devices in the early 2000s with this kind of slide mechanism, such as Vaio U, mylo and CLIE VZ-90. Not sure if the video tape packaging is an hommage to Sony (since Sony created Betamax and not VHS), but I would definitely like to know why AYANEO chose this packaging.

The Sidekick is definitely a retro device at this point, but I wouldn't think about it in the same breath as a VHS tape, despite both being in use at the same time. That said, while the Slide's layout is similar to the Sidekick, it's stylings are completely different so it seems to be a bit of a stretch IMO, to say that this device is designed after it. I definitely hadn't thought "Sidekick" when thinking about the slide until you mentioned it at any rate.

the number of backers for Ayaneo Slide is less than 180. The ayaneo slide was leaked around the same time as the GPD win 4 back in 2022. The handheld PC is now everywhere, with a wide range of designs and almost identical CPU performance. I think that more customers are looking forward to the launch of the Ayaneo Flip KB/DS or other handheld device.

So I used to have a sliding nokia with that spring loaded style of slide up motion. The problem was (and this is why I'm a little more hopeful for the longevity of the gpd win 4...) the stop or catch for the sliding screen snapped as a result of usage and caused the screen to quite literally fly off. Don't get me wrong it seems satisfying but my god that stopper needs to be bombproof....

I have the Win4 6800u and was looking forward to this in comparison to it, but i think its too late since the GPD Win Mini is retailing soon and i think that's a better device. Price isnt really a factor where im from since we dont have a Steam Deck available locally and all resellers sells em at above ROG Ally Z1E pricing. So that pricing is a standard here, but for around that price - same also for the majority of other products - i will opt for a better product or at least a better package. But in all honesty, im just waiting on the next apu chip. Its not really an upgrade if you have a 7840u or Z1E. Appreciate the hands on impression on this as usual, TQ.

for anyone curious, the floating design of the ayaneo slide screen is necessary to allow for that screen pivot when open, it's also why it uses that spring assisted click into place sliding mechanism to make sure you don't accidentally start pushing the screen closed when pivoting the screen, which wouldn't cause damage per se but would be annoying to happen.

The problem for Ayaneo in Europe is, that in Europe all prices already include taxes. When you import a Ayaneo product, you have to add customs to the total price which - depending on the country you live in - makes it a lot more expensive than first anticipated. So while a ROG Ally costs 678€ (including taxes), the cheapest Ayaneo Slide costs ~640€ plus (in my case) ~160€ taxes plus fix costs for customs handling. Ayaneo should really have a sales platform that ships from within Europe to avoid all that.

Why does Aya refuse to support high refresh rate displays? Seems like everyone is jumping on that, even Valve with the 90hz on the OLED deck. Once you use high refresh rate displays it's really hard to go back. And honestly it's not even about gaming, but even navigating interface and UI within windows. IT's just a smoother and more premium/pleasant experience.

The T-mobile Sidekick came out 20 years ago Taki, we're just old.

Anything 20 yrs old is vintage or retro, but I would argue tech products are throwbacks after less time. When sidekicks were first popular in the early 00s, using AIM or yahoo messenger on the device was a new, cool thing. Definitely a throwback nowadays. Cell phones design sensibility is also a special case. Most devices essentially look the same as one another anymore so anything from the past that looks different than a rectangular slab feels like a "retro" design throwback. Another way to think about vintage-ness is to think about what experience with the device a young adult today might have had. A 20 year old in 2023 might only have memories of a sidekick if their older siblings had a later model in 2010-ish!

Looks like the old 1991 Sega Game gear! Juat added 4 buttons instead of the 2 but the shape is exactly the same! Looks pretty good! I still have an OG game gear with the top slide in tv module amd long TV antenna lol White one is just a PSP shell with a slide screen and keyboard!

Do you know anything about AyaNeo OS? Are they still working on it or they gave up on that idea? They promised it will be released this year...

I saw it in person in 2022. It looked like it was done at that point. They went back to the drawing board after that and it's dead/in development hell.

@@datageekz8446 they're smaller, like the switch sticks, and seem quite sensetivr even when lowering the sensetivity. I prefer full size joysticks and don't even use Joycons on the Nintendo switch

Same man. I absolutely hate the off-placement of the right joystick, causing my hand to cramp up with my thumb reaching so far down for shooters. I would’ve bought this device immediately if they prioritized the joysticks for accuracy & shooters

Really interesting, in real time, to see the, ergonomics of these things get refined. In the end, it's you humans who use these things. Also, minor nerd cred (old) for the random c-cassette. Just a sort of improvement, I wonder if you could include the 3Dmark benchmark (etc) scores of similar devices you've tested. 2896 doesn't really mean much.

1. Is the visible cables at the back when opened up due to being a prototype or something? The "wiggleness" of the screen when closed would be irritating to me as well. 2. Is there a dedicated button or a way to map a button to xbox guide/steam menu button? Not talking about win+g which open up the gamebar, but a button that can be used as steam menu button when in big picture. Really miss that and a 40Hz mode on my air plus. And i hope they separate game library portion of aya space 2 from the tdp/controller configuration tool similar to the design of AYN 's LCC. Aya space 2 take as long if not longer to launch counting from after entering windows than my entire Odin 2 from fresh boot. 😂😂 Best to wait for a refresh/new SKU next year with updated chip, can monitor for hinges/sliding mechanism issue as well.
