It gives me strong Xperia Play vibes, I like it.

Yes, and now can we please have this with a hardware keyboard instead of the gamepad? Thanks for restoring peace and prosperity to the world of smartphones, shut up and take my money

Wow this takes me back!

Haven't found more details yet. Issues I remember from the Xperia Play.

It's chipset was a year out of date for its price range. Really it could be that today and be okay, games availability is way better today because of emulators and even the high end gacha games. That MMO Where Winds Meet just released on mobile. Got to try that

When the Xperia Play came out, big phones were considered like 4.5-4.7 inches. Xperia Play 4 inch display. Really cramped. A slider today would have way more space to size up/space out the controls. This i mainly want to see what is the thumb stick press down buttons. Display it's probably 20x9/21x9. That ratio I'm happy around 6.5"-7" with miniscule bezels and no front facing camera

Ayaneo so probably real expensive but I hope it succeeds so we get slider phones again. Bring back thickness. Foldables/flips should be getting people cool with chunky devices again

This could give the RedMagic a run for its money

Now turn the gamepad into a keyboard

This is so sick

Neat idea!

But innovation in the smartphone space? What timeline is this?

a gaming phone without a latency-free (*) 3.5mm jack? ಠ_ಠ
(*) yes, there's always sooome latency :P

That looks really uncomfortable to use, like the Nintendo DS. I ended up playing everything with the stylus.

Got to see cooling and if it has a microsd card slot. Especially if it supports express cards. With how Android gaming is going with steam games, a card slot would be amazing
