Ayaneo reveals the chipset powering its Pocket Play smartphone | Infinium-tech
Ayaneo started teasing its first smartphone, the Pocket Play, in November and then in December it showed us what it would look like, Sony Ericsson Xperia Play vibes and all.
Today, Ayanyo has finally revealed the chipset sitting at the top of the Pocket Play. This is MediaTek Dimensity 9300. It’s an odd choice, considering that the SoC in question was revealed in 2023. Sure, this was MediaTek’s top dog of 2023, but that’s more than two years old.
And if, we assume for pricing purposes, Ayaneo wanted to go with MediaTek instead of Qualcomm (since MediaTek’s top SoCs are always rumored to be significantly cheaper), then why not the Dimensity 9500?
Anyway, Ayaneo revealed in December that the Pocket Play’s slide-out bit has a D-pad, ABXY buttons, and a pair of touchpads that can act as joysticks. It also has L1, L2, R1 and R2 shoulder buttons, dual rear cameras, stereo speakers, and a USB-C port. The Pocket Play will be offered in black and white, though it’s still unclear when it will launch.
