Nintendo's handheld may be less powerful than its fancy competitors, but it strikes a good balance between power and battery life thanks to its mobile-focused Tegra chipset.įor those concerned about Steam Deck's battery life - I can say as an owner, they provide so many options to stretch game time it's a non-issue for me. The Steam Deck also has the same problem, to a much lesser extent than the Aya Neo Air.
This illustrates one of the key sticking points of portable gaming right now it's hard to make a handheld console more powerful than the Switch because battery life is going to suffer as a result. Image: Nintendo Life / Damien McFerranĪlas, stamina is the Aya Neo Air's biggest weakness if you're super careful about what games you play then you could potentially get somewhere close to three hours on a single charge, but most of the time you'll be rushing to the wall socket after just over an hour of gameplay. The OLED panel is also fantastic, although Time Extension notes that its 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution is rather wasted as you'll need to play all but the least demanding games in 720p to avoid draining the battery too quickly. The analogue inputs are based on 'Hall effect' sensors, which means there are no moving parts inside to wear down – so, in theory, controller drift won't happen.
On the plus side, the design is easily the best to come out of Aya Neo so far, with fancy LED lights and superb build quality.
