The Ayaneo Pocket S checks off a lot of the boxes that are needed when it comes to an Android handheld. It has the hardware, battery, and aesthetics to make it a top-tier contender in the space, but there are a few things that are definitely worth mentioning when it comes to using the handheld as a go-to when it comes to emulation on Android and playing top-tier Android games.

Doubles up as a nice hand warmer for winter... and a portable cooking surface in summer.

[@baldlyrudy]

A lot of truth here.

[@AdrianBigyes]

It looks pretty and cool. I like the glowing part on the joystick. But the thing is, it feels I couldn't put a tempered glass over it since the controllers on the side has also a glossy finish. That bad boy in my possession will get scratched without a doubt. 😅

[@baldlyrudy]

Adrian, I'm afraid to take it out without the case. I feel like it could break so easily. It feels fragile.

[@CyberDopamine]

Dude I've been playing with it and its so fun. Also your voice and pace is awesome

[@baldlyrudy]

Arigato! It's a fun as heck system. And yes on Stardew Valley. It's a time sink like no other.

[@TunedByJ]

Really gave this hard look, but decided on the Odin 2. But i have to admit this looks so sleek but less comfortable to use without the case. I might reconsider and get this down the road

[@baldlyrudy]

Yeah. That's the thing, there are a lot of other comparable handhelds that are put there that are just as powerful, but less expensive.

[@bassderek]

Got mine yesterday, just wish it stayed a little cooler.

[@baldlyrudy]

Yeah. It can get toasty at times.

[@Exit854]

Have had mine for a few days. Haven’t had it get warm yet. Haven’t emulated switch but have run plenty of PS2 and it’s quiet, performant, and cool.

[@baldlyrudy]

PS2 runs great on here.

[@nisargjhatakia5844]

You should put timestamps in your video

[@baldlyrudy]

Um...aren't there? I thought I put them in the description.

[@baldlyrudy]

Just checked. They're there. For some reason it's not showing as chapters on the video.

[@JoeysRetroHandhelds]

@@baldlyrudy Might be because you have timestamp after chapter name, try swapping them.

[@baldlyrudy]

@@JoeysRetroHandhelds appreciate the heads up. After having COVID after Computex, my brain has been all over the place.

[@nisargjhatakia5844]

@@baldlyrudy Oh I didn't know you had covid. were you vaccinated?

[@SAYFULLAH717]

🎉🎉

[@LightForgedProtector]

how is the battery life?

[@baldlyrudy]

Stupid good. 5-7 hours depending on the game.

[@michaelbenny659]

Does the device feel heavy?

[@baldlyrudy]

It feels okay. It's around 350 grams. Definitely heavier than a Switch Lite. Not as heavy as a Legion Go.

[@fabianc20]

Can you play warzonemobile. I can't

[@baldlyrudy]

Negative! And I can't figure out why.

[@CyberDopamine]

Stardew valley ftw

[@MeanShape]

£450 get a 2nd hand rog for that price

[@baldlyrudy]

True. You'd also get a whole different set of pros and cons.

[@KyleRuggles]

What gets me is for a gaming device, how does it not have a headphone jack? Like I rather spend less and get an Odin 2, better ergonomics, nearly as fast and it has a headphone jack. I say get this if you wish to put it in the pocket, a bigger pocket without a case and for the looks. Other than that this is a big pass for me. It's too damn fragile. Great review!

[@baldlyrudy]

I know it's old tech, but comments like this make me want to get an Odin 2. I have an Odin 2 Mini on the way, but still....I want to experience it first hand. Also, thank you!

[@namcojr]

Why do people buy black consoles and keep complaining about fingerprints? The white model looks 100 times better and has no such problems.

[@baldlyrudy]

You can have a black console and it not be a fingerprint magnet. It all depends on the materials that the manufacturer uses. I had a black Gamecube and the controllers were never a fingerprint magnet.
