Ayaneo introduced the Konkr Pocket Advance, a new handheld device that re-creates the design of the original Game Boy Advance. The device integrates modern hardware and software while maintaining the GBA's horizontal form factor.
The Konkr Pocket Advance features new controls, including X and Y action buttons and four additional shoulder buttons. It also includes an improved screen compared to the original GBA. Internally, it is powered by a MediaTek Helio G90T processor, has a cooling fan, and a 4,000mAh battery.
A significant departure from the original GBA, the Pocket Advance runs on Android. This allows the device to play a broader selection of games beyond just GBA titles, expanding its utility for users.
The device is available in two configurations: a $109 version with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, and a $129 version with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. Both versions offer expandable storage via a microSD card.
