AYANEO Slide is a portable console that will certainly not leave anyone indifferent. This model maintains the classic line that we usually see in this type of system, including a rectangular finish with rounded corners and two analog sticks placed in different positions. But there are two very important keys that make it special, its QWERTY keyboard and its sliding screen.

As we can see in the cover image, the sliding screen is what allows the integration of the QWERTY keyboard, and without the first, there would be no place to place this keyboard while maintaining the classic design and shape. The keyboard is located just below the screenso when we move it, it is exposed and the screen is on top where it works perfectly.

The truth is that the concept is interesting and the execution seems to be very successful, although without a console in hand it is impossible to judge completely. with that keyboard increase the possibilities of using the AYANEO Slide especially. In terms of hardware, this model comes with a fairly powerful configuration that will ensure a good performance in most games.

The brain of the AYANEO Slide is a Ryzen 7 7840U APU with a TDP of 28 watts, which has a Zen 4 processor with 8 cores and 16 threads, has an integrated Radeon 780M GPU, which has 768 shaders based on the RDNA 3 architecture, and has 16 GB of LPDDR5X memory at 7500 MHz to maximize bandwidth, something essential, so that the integrated graphics, which use RAM as VRAM, can develop their maximum potential.

Your screen is IPS type, which guarantees good viewing angles, has a size of 6 inches and a resolution of 1080p. This model’s battery is 46.3Wh and has a perfectly tuned cooling system that combines active dissipation with a system of copper pipes to quickly collect heat and theoretically keep maximum temperatures of 65.8 degrees C when the APU is operating in 28 watt mode.

The storage capacity is also not at all out of place as the AYANEO Slide comes with a configuration of a 512GB PCIe Gen4 SSD in the base model, but can reach 4GB (and 64GB LPDDR5X) in the top model. The asking price is 645 euros if we buy it during its funding period on IndieGoGo. The version with 64 GB and 4 TB costs 1,198 euros.

Once this period ends on the IndieGoGo console AYANEO It will cost 829 euros in the standard version, and 1,475 euros in the highest version.. The first units will start arriving in December of this year, right in the middle of the Christmas “fever”.
