At $179, The Pocket Micro Classic Is AYANEO's Cheapest Device Yet | Time Extension (www.timeextension.com)

AYANEO has recently launched the Pocket Micro Classic, a refreshed version of its Android-based handheld device. This new model comes with a lower price point at $179, $20 cheaper than the original, making it the company’s most affordable device yet.

The AYANEO Pocket Micro was praised for its compact design and aesthetic appeal. This new iteration retains those strong points, together with the powerful MediaTek Helio G99 chipset.

One notable difference is that it no longer includes dual analogue sticks. Both the Pocket Micro and Pocket Micro Classic can emulate up to the Dreamcast era.

In your opinion, is the absence of sticks a significant drawback?

That looks like my dream favourite phone that emulates all old GBA & DS stuff

This would be awful for DS, no?
