Retro Game Corps | AYANEO Air 1S Review: It Finally Makes Sense @RetroGameCorps | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
The new AYANEO Air 1S is the first "Air" device that actually makes sense. With an OLED screen and the powerful (and efficient) Ryzen 7 7840U chipset inside, this handheld PC finally achieves an excellent balance in size, performance, and battery life. The last question that remains is whether this extreme portability is worth some noteworthy compromises to achieve this small form factor.

This was a review unit sent to me by the manufacturer. All opinions are my own, they did not see this review ahead of time, and no money was exchanged in any way.
