Prepare to witness a paradigm shift in the world of handheld gaming. AYANEO, a brand celebrated for its forward-thinking designs, has pulled back the curtain on its latest creation: the AYANEO Flip 1S DS. This device is far more than a simple successor; it’s a ground-up reinvention of what a dual-screen clamshell can be, integrating cutting-edge AI processing, a jaw-dropping display, and a control system that redefines precision. Join us as we explore the features that position the Flip 1S DS as a new leader in the field.
A Portal to Vivid Worlds: The 144Hz OLED Main Screen
The centrepiece of the Flip 1S DS is its primary display, a thoroughly upgraded 7-inch 1080P OLED screen. With a lightning-fast 144Hz refresh rate, motion is rendered with extraordinary clarity and smoothness. The panel achieves a brilliant 800 nits of peak brightness, which, combined with the inherently superior contrast and response speed of OLED technology, produces a deeply immersive and lifelike picture. From the fast-paced action of competitive shooters to the rich, vibrant landscapes of adventure games, every visual is presented with exquisite detail and fluid dynamics.
The Ultimate Co-Pilot: A Revolution in Dual-Screen Utility
As the original pioneer of the Windows dual-screen clamshell, AYANEO has once again evolved its signature feature. The Flip 1S DS boasts a new generation of secondary display: a 4.5-inch high-definition IPS screen. With a sharp 1620 x 1080 resolution and 550 nits of brightness, it offers a larger and clearer canvas for multitasking. Its 3:2 aspect ratio makes it an ideal companion for retro gaming enthusiasts.
Functioning as a native Windows extended desktop, this second screen unlocks immense potential. Gamers can dedicate the main screen to their game while using the secondary display to access walkthroughs, monitor system vitals, manage audio, or even interact with AI assistants. This creates an efficient and intelligent linkage, allowing for true parallel processing of information and actions.
Next-Generation Intelligence: Inside the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370
Driving this powerful machine is the new flagship AMD Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370 processor. This state-of-the-art chip marks a monumental leap in multi-core performance, effortlessly powering through AAA titles and intensive multitasking workloads. Its integrated AI engine delivers formidable computing power, which translates directly to a more fluid gaming experience and smarter energy consumption, establishing the Flip 1S DS as a genuine “AI PC”. This intelligent core ensures every interaction, especially across dual screens, is more efficient and immersive than ever before.
Engineered for Peak Performance: The Hybrid Cooling System
Sustaining elite performance requires an equally elite thermal solution. The Flip 1S DS features a sophisticated dual-architecture cooling system. This “double insurance” solution pairs a large-surface VC vapor chamber, which excels at rapidly drawing heat from the processor, with a high-efficiency active air-cooling system. This combination guarantees rapid and continuous heat dissipation, ensuring the entire machine remains stable and smooth even during prolonged gaming sessions or when handling multiple tasks. The powerful performance of the Flip 1S DS is always ready to be unleashed.
A Symphony of Metal and Motion: Premium Design & Ergonomics
In keeping with AYANEO’s minimalist design philosophy, the Flip 1S DS presents a clean, pure silhouette with simple, elegant lines. For this iteration, the device has been elevated with a CNC full-metal A-surface, a choice that not only reinforces the structure but also gives the handheld a premium, high-grade metallic texture. The finish is delicate to the touch and visually refined. The hinge mechanism has also been re-engineered with a stepless adjustment structure, allowing it to hover securely at multiple angles, providing the perfect view whether on a desk, in your hands, or used with peripherals.
Beyond Precision: Introducing TMR Joysticks and Refined Controls
The physical connection between player and game is paramount. As the first brand to introduce Hall sensor tech to Windows handhelds, AYANEO is now the first to feature the TMR electromagnetic middle joystick. This revolutionary component offers an ultra-high 1000Hz return rate, exceptional precision, and micron-level response with zero dead zones and no drift. It is an “micro-operation artifact” perfect for high-skill gaming scenarios.
This dedication to quality extends across the entire device. The familiar gamepad layout has been enhanced with buttons that offer longer travel and more satisfying tactile feedback. Function keys have been enlarged and their layout optimized, making every action feel more intuitive and comfortable.
Your Command Center: The All-New AYASpace 3.0
The newly upgraded AYASpace 3.0 serves as the intelligent heart of the Flip 1S DS. With a modern, minimalist user interface, it makes managing the handheld a delight. The new “Smart Control” feature centralises common settings for quick access, while the “Snowfield” function provides a true console-style suspend-and-resume experience. With refreshed quick-access functions and improved keyboard/mouse simulation, AYASpace 3.0 makes the entire dual-screen experience smarter, more seamless, and more fun.
