AYANEO to Refresh Pocket EVO This Month with Mystery New Release
While AYANEO has been busy flooding the market with new Android handhelds this summer, it appears they aren't done yet. The company has teased a "new release" related to the Pocket EVO, which itself just launched last month.
Here's what we know so far:
- Refresh, not replacement: This seems to be an updated version of the existing Pocket EVO, not a completely new device.
- Announcement on September 24th: AYANEO will reveal the details at 08:00 EST (UTC) on their social media.
- Potential Indiegogo launch: The wording of their announcement suggests the new Pocket EVO might launch via crowdfunding, like many of their recent devices.
What remains a mystery:
- The nature of the refresh: Is it a simple color variant? A spec bump? A revised design element? AYANEO is keeping tight-lipped for now.
- Pricing and availability: No word yet on how much the refreshed Pocket EVO will cost or when it will be available for purchase.
Context:
This year, AYANEO has shifted focus slightly, releasing a range of Android handhelds like the Pocket Micro and Pocket DMG to compete with rivals like the AYN Odin2. This "new release" suggests they are committed to iterating and refining their Android offerings.
Stay tuned for more details on September 24th!
