AYANEO Presents Kun Handheld 8.4-inch Gaming PC Powered by AMD Ryzen 7 7840U

[AleksandarK]

AYANEO, an Asian manufacturer known for its mobile handhelds, has introduced a new device, the AYANEO Kun. The Kun is powered by the latest AMD Ryzen 7 7840U mobile processor from the Ryzen 7040 series. This SoC includes eight Zen 4 cores and an integrated graphics unit based on the RDNA 3 architecture with 12 compute units. The console's dimensions stand at 312 x 133 x 21.9 mm, making it slightly wider but slimmer than ASUS's ROG Ally, with the exact weight yet to be disclosed. Kun's battery capacity is rated for 75Wh, as compared to other handhelds' 40 Wh, potentially indicating a longer battery life.

The AYANEO Kun's other notable features include its 8.4-inch display with an IPS panel and resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 pixels. For controls, the device utilizes a D-Pad and two Hall sensor-equipped joysticks for gaming. The shoulder buttons also employ Hall sensor technology. There are touchpads on either side of the display, along with other function keys and the A/B/X/Y keys. For the first time, AYANEO has integrated buttons at the back of the device, offering customizable functions. The device provides two Type-C (likely USB4), one USB Type-A, and one 3.5 mm jack connection. More comprehensive technical details, model variants, and pricing information are to be released during the official unveiling of the AYANEO Kun scheduled for August.

Too bad they cannot fit an OLED panel. Qe dont need another handheld with ancient screen technology.

Is this real battery capacity or Chinese battery capacity?

How many SKUs do they have? They should stop releasing new models and focus on their existing lineup.

Releasing a ton of stuff is just going to make things like software support pretty bad.

Doesn't putting the battery on one side cause imbalance in the hand?

Every day they launch a new handheld based on this SOC, it seems that there will be nothing left for laptops. :')

There are levels to battery makers from China, those like one you attached and xxxfire clones found which are fire hazard scams and then there are likes of Efest, Keeppower, etc... who provide some of the best Li-Ion cells for various applications at seriously decent prices.

I was seeing the Efest name in a search for 18650 batteries. Still it will be difficult for me to buy something that doesn't say Sanyo/Panasonic, LG, Samsung or Sony.

How about molicel? Seems to be praised

Pity the screen is still 60hz with no mention of VRR. Whilst not many are truly aiming for 120hz on these devices, frame rate limiting to 40 fps gives you a nice 1/3 divisible vsync, and VRR is essential for tearing on low fps gaming as long as the window is low enough.

Efest and Keeppower are using Samsung, and Sanyo/Panasonic cells for their cells just with their wrap. Trying to source those OEM cells is quite difficult here in India and importing cells from likes of Efest, Molicel and Keeppower is a lot easier.
