Ayaneo Flip 1S: Premium Gaming Handheld with OLED Display Coming Soon

Key Takeaways

1. Ayaneo is developing the Flip 1S with a CNC metal casing for durability.
2. The Flip 1S will initially be available only in a dual-screen (DS) version.
3. The main display will feature an OLED upgrade for better color and responsiveness.
4. Specifications for the secondary display remain uncertain, but an OLED option may be considered.
5. More details about the Flip 1S DS are expected to be shared by the end of the month.

Ayaneo has been slowly sharing details about the Flip 1S, letting us know that it has opted for a CNC metal casing for its upcoming gaming handheld. The company also suggested that the Flip 1S will initially only be available in a dual-screen (DS) version.

Display Enhancements

Despite the lack of a complete reveal on Ayaneo’s social media, the company has confirmed a significant display upgrade from the Flip DS to the Flip 1S DS. They’ve chosen to feature an OLED display, promising a more “vibrant…lifelike…responsive…[and] immersive gaming experience.” So far, it appears that the Flip 1S DS keeps the relatively thick bezels seen in the earlier model.

Uncertain Specifications

It remains uncertain if the OLED technology will be applied to the smaller secondary display of the handheld. However, the 1.15:1 and 3.92-inch OLED panel from the Pocket DMG (currently priced at $511 on Amazon) might be a good fit for the Flip 1S DS’s secondary display. Ayaneo has yet to disclose the specifications for the main display. That said, we think it will likely feature the same OLED panel found in the Ayaneo 3, which supports 1080p resolution at a 144 Hz refresh rate, offers 110% DCI-P3 color space coverage, and has a peak brightness of 800 nits. We expect Ayaneo to share more information about the Flip 1S DS by the end of this month.
