The AYANEO Pocket DS handheld gaming system is a clamshell-style piece of entertainment technology engineered with a retro-inspired gameplay experience in mind.

The dual-screen design of the handheld will call to mind the layout of the [Nintendo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flip-ds) DS device, but builds on it with some of the latest technologies. This includes two touchscreens that include a seven-inch OLED screen on the upper alongside a five-inch LCD screen on the lower that will combine for an immersive gameplay experience. The device is powered by the [Qualcomm](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ayaneo-pocket-s2) [Snapdragon G3x Gen 2](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-s) processor alongside Adreno A32 graphics, while an 8,000mAh battery will support ample hours of gaming.

The AYANEO Pocket DS handheld gaming system has comfortable controls including dual analog sticks, a D-pad, shoulder triggers and ABXY buttons, while the unit runs the Android 13 operating system.
