Aya Neo Next, An Excellent Handheld Gaming PC, Is Available To Order Now
The Aya Neo Next, a powerful handheld gaming PC, has started its crowdfunding campaign and you can get a discount by ordering during the campaign. If you've been following the surging handheld PC market, you may have heard of the Aya Neo already. Earlier this year I reviewed the Aya Neo Pro, a device that reached Indiegogo backers' hands just several months back. Although the Aya Neo Pro was and still is quite impressive, I mentioned in my review that a revamped version of the Aya Neo was on the horizon. I've now had a chance to check out the Aya Neo Next ahead of its launch next month, and I can confidently say that if you're interested in the Aya Neo brand, the Next is the version to pick.
The Aya Neo Next is more of an iteration on the existing Pro and 2021 models than a brand-new handheld. It still shares the same core DNA, as a Windows handheld PC with an AMD mobile processor and integrated Radeon Vega graphics. If you already have the Aya Neo Pro, upgrading to the Next probably doesn't make much sense. If the Next included a 6000 series processor--instead of the 5000 series--it might be a different story, but as it stands, the Next feels more like the definitive version of the company's initial move into the handheld PC gaming market.
It may seem strange that a new Aya handheld is launching just several months after its predecessors, but if you think about it from a PC gaming perspective--where minor component upgrades release regularly--it makes sense. Even though this an iterative upgrade, the Aya Neo Next boasts significant improvements in terms of build and moderate performance improvements.
