AYANEO Finally Drops Timeline for KONKR Pocket Fit ELITE — But Questions Remain
After months of silence, AYANEO has finally shared a concrete update on the long-awaited KONKR Pocket Fit ELITE—and it’s almost time for production to begin.
In a surprise Indiegigo post, the company confirmed that manufacturing is scheduled to start March 17, with shipments expected by end of March. Backers who previously requested accessory refunds can expect the bulk refund process to kick off March 15, with refunds typically processed within 7 business days.
But here’s the catch:
- The Indiegogo campaign remains closed to new backers.
- The Pocket Fit ELITE is not listed on AYANEO’s official storefront.
- Meanwhile, suspicious listings have popped up on AliExpress—but given the timeline, these are almost certainly not legitimate pre-orders.
So while this update brings relief to long-suffering backers, the broader availability—and even official confirmation of retail plans—still hangs in the air. We’ll be watching closely.
