crowdfunding campaign after a short teaser released by the brand. The teaser
campaign was at the beginning of the month and the starting price of the
handheld is US$ 799. The options of the AIR 1S are based on different
configurations of the RAM/ storage combination. The options are 16GB RAM+ 512GB
storage, 32GB + 1TB, 32GB + 2TB and 32GB + 4TB. The AMD Ryzen 7 series APU of
the model provides a decent performance boost.

oversubscribed its Indiegogo target but the campaign is expected to run its
full course.
