Miyoo Mini A30 Coming in April (Update)

We would like to know about the Miyoo Mini Flip here only a week ago when there were reports that it would be released soon. There appears to be even more news about Miyoo today that has nothing to do with flips. According to Miyoo Mini Stock Alerts on X, the Miyoo A30 will be released next month, ahead of the Miyoo Mini Flip.

Early Rumors

Initially known as the Miyoo Mini 282, the Miyoo A30 is a new horizontal device that was rumoured more than a year ago. Similar to the Miyoo Mini Flip, a set of patented photos featured the horizontal device. This gadget, which is still known as the Miyoo 282, will be issued before the flip, according to the Miyoo Alert Stock Bot.

Miyoo Alert Stock Bot made a video of someone holding the device public eight months ago. The landscape device featured the Miyoo Operational System, non-stacked shoulder buttons, and a single analogue stick.

Several pictures of the same type of equipment were also made public simultaneously.

New Miyoo Mini A30 News

Until last week, the Miyoo A30 was only hinted at in a tweet that included four devices and read, "Four popular colours, fashionable simplicity, heartbeat value choice." The image also showcases the four colourways: the black from the early video, a Famicom controller with maroon and gold, an all-grey shell, and grey with lighter highlights.

As of right now, the device has no official specifications. None of the information previously recorded on a handheld spreadsheet last year has been verified. There isn't much concrete information besides the colours and the announcement that it will be released next month. However, this can be a fantastic portable choice for those who prefer horizontal handhelds.

A comparison video posted by Youtuber Panda Mimi shows how similar the sizes of the A30 and RG28XX are. The trigger buttons of the A30 are less clicky and easier to push, and it has an analogue stick. Even though both devices are 2.8 inches in size, the video shows that the RG28XX has a somewhat brighter screen.
