[Now Available in Peach] AYANEO Shares Some Additional Details on the KONKR Pocket Advance, Including a Live Order Page
Forget the peaches you’re eating—AYANEO just dropped a new handheld in this exact shade. If you’ve been eyeing the KONKR Pocket Advance but felt the previous color options didn’t quite match your vibe, the wait is over. The company has officially unveiled a “Peach” colorway, joining the previously teased Purple, Orange, and Retro DMG editions.
Here’s the juicy part: it’s live on the order page right now. You can snag the 3GB/32GB model for $89 or bump up to the 4GB/64GB version for $109. Just keep in mind that shipping costs an extra $20 via 4PX. These prices are strictly preorder deals, and given how quickly the Retro DMG version sold out earlier this week, you might want to move fast before they vanish again.
Under the hood, this pocket-sized nostalgia machine runs on Android 12 with a MediaTek Helio G90T chip and a crisp 3.5-inch, 960×640 LCD screen. It’s essentially a Frankenstein of sorts, borrowing components from the Pocket Micro and Air Mini to create a GBA-focused device that feels surprisingly capable for its size.
Shipping is slated for the end of August, so you’ll have just enough time to decide if this peach-colored retro rig deserves a spot in your collection. If you’re a fan of handhelds that pay homage to the GameBoy Advance era, this might be your next guilty pleasure.
