AYANEO Provides Shipping Updates for the Pocket Advance, Pocket Block, and Pocket Micro 2
If you’ve been staring at your mailbox waiting for a new handheld to arrive, AYANEO finally has some news—though it’s a bit of a mixed bag.
The good news? The Pocket Advance is nearly home, with about 90% of pre-orders already shipped. If you’re still waiting on the Onyx Ice colorway, hang tight; the company noted that specific shade is one of the final batches to roll out. Even better, the Pocket Block is officially hitting the road next week (Oct 19–23), which is a much faster turnaround than many expected.
However, if you pre-ordered the Pocket Micro 2, you might need a little more patience. A late delivery from a controller supplier has bumped the shipping window from late October to early November.
The TL;DR on shipping:
- Pocket Advance: 90% shipped; more batches being scheduled.
- Pocket Block: Shipping starts next week.
- Pocket Micro 2: Delayed until early November due to component issues.
It’s a classic case of “good news, bad news,” but at least the hardware is finally moving!
