FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Do we really need more powerful android gaming handhelds | History Defined

AYN Odin 2 and Odin 2 Mini with Ayaneo Pocket S.

At GDC 2025, Qualcomm announced its newest lineup of processors that will soon make their way into Android gaming handhelds. Headlining the trio is the Snapdragon G3 Gen 3, coming more than a year after its predecessor was released. It promises to provide a 30% CPU boost and an almost 30% jump to the GPU, which is nice on paper and probably in practice.

Of course, these weren't the only announcements, as we also saw AYANEO, OneXSugar, and Retroid announce new gaming handhelds. AYANEO's introduction of the Pocket S2 comes as little surprise, seeing the original Pocket S was the first device to ship with the Snapdragon G3x Gen 2.
