AYANEO mentioned that the mini PC can be displayed horizontally (with the screen facing towards the ceiling) or vertically (with the display facing outwards towards the user). This seems like the big differentiator that AYANEO is touting, as it was heavily focused on during the sharing session.
Pricing and Release Date
We’ve also learned pricing for the AM01S, starting at $349 “barebone” Early Bird for the AMD Ryzen 7 8745HS model, and $639 for the “barebone” Early Bird with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 model. The barebone option is, as its namesake implies, an option that does not come with any RAM or storage. Any inclusion of these items will start at $499 Early Bird for the AMD Ryzen 7 8745HS model, and $839 for the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 model.
Ayaneo AM01S Pricing
It looks like AYANEO will keep with their premium B. Duck limited line offerings again, as this time they are offering both a Retro White and B. Duck option for the chassis. The company has also shared that it will make the device available to backers on Indiegogo starting in October 2025, with shipping estimated to start sometime in Mid-November.
Upgraded Software
Ayaneo AM01S AyaSpace
It appears that the AM01S will include the upgraded AYASpace 3.0 Intelligent Control Software, touting that this will allow for greater control of performance monitoring, user interface, and scaling, and enhanced keyboard and mouse controls. Additional discussion around the software seemed aimed at increasing functionality while utilizing the secondary screen.
Conclusion
It looks like AYANEO is coming out with an interesting Mini PC that comes with an adjustable secondary display; not something you see often in mini PCs. The AM01S evokes a nostalgic vibe similar to early Mac computers, for which its base color scheme and design obviously emulates, and that secondary display opens up a lot of fun and interesting options for data and performance functionality.
