The AYN Thor is the only dual-screen handheld on this list. AYN's store lists a customized 6-inch Full HD AMOLED touchscreen on top and a 3.92-inch AMOLED touchscreen on the bottom, which suits games built for two screens and lets Android apps sit on the second display. The Lite model at $259 uses an SD865 with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of UFS 3.1 storage; the Base, Pro and Max models move to an 8 Gen 2 with up to 16GB of RAM and 1TB. All models run Android 13 with a 6000mAh battery and hall sticks. Like the other Android devices here, it does not run Windows or Nintendo Switch 2 games natively. The trade-offs are the older chip in the cheapest model, the batch pre-order sales, and an older Android version than the Odin 3. AYN also notes that no games are preinstalled. We compared documented features and published prices only.
