Earlier this year, Punkt introduced a new smartphone with a privacy-focused, Google-free, Android-based operating system called AphyOS. Now it’s shipping.And last month, AYANEO launched a pocket-sized handheld game console… which sold out almost immediately, apparently because the company only made about 100. Now they’re making… some more. At least enough for two more batches of pre-orders, but it’s unclear how many that will be.Here’s a roundup of recent tech news from around the web.AYANEO will take pre-orders for at least two more batches of the Pocket MICRO 2 handheld game console with a 3.5 inch screen, SD865-class processor, and Android-based OS. The first batch was only for about 100 units, which sold out quickly. www.ayaneo.com/article/942[image or embed]— Liliputing (@liliputing.bsky.social) July 10, 2026 at 11:16 AMThe Punkt MC03 smartphone with a privacy-focused, Android-based OS called AphyOS is now shipping.
