According to Ayaneo, the Pocket S will lead the Android-based gaming handheld industry in nearly every aspect of its design, from its processor to its ergonomics and its battery life. The company uses the tagline "setting the benchmark for Android handheld performance" in its marketing. In terms of its specifications, the Pocket S is powered by a [G3X Gen 2](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pocket-evo) processor, which slightly outperforms that of the Razer Edge, which runs on a [G3X Gen 1](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razer-edge-5g) chip. However, it is important to note that other companies are working on devices with similar performance, such as AYN's Odin 2, which uses a Snapdragon SD 8+ Gen 2 processor.
