That sliding display is a 6-inch IPS panel sporting an adjustable screen angle. It features a 1080p (1920x1080) resolution, 400 nits of brightness, 1,000:1 contrast ratio, and 100% coverage of the sRGB color space (85% DCI-P3). Antec is mum on the refresh rate, though a peek around the web reveals it's likely just a 60Hz panel, compared to 90Hz on the Steam Deck OLED and 120Hz for the ROG Ally X.
It's powered by a Ryzen 7 7840U processor (8C/16T, 3.3GHz to 5.1GHz, 16MB L3 cache) based on Zen 4 with integrated Radeon 780M graphics (12 cores, 2.7GHz). There are two RAM and storage combos available, including 16GB of LPDDR5X paired with a 512GB PCIe 4.0 SSD, and 32GB + 2TB.
Wireless connectivity is served with Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.2. As for the physical I/O, you're looking at two USB4 ports and a microSD card reader. Other notable specs include a six-axis gyroscope, hall-sensing joystick, RGB lighting, fingerprint reader integrated into the power button, and 46.2Wh (12,000mAh) battery wrapped in a black or white chassis that checks in at 650 grams.
Antec has the Core HS model with 16GB RAM + 512GB SSD listed on sale for $499 (down from $699), and the 32GB + 2TB model priced at $699, the latter of which is part of a launch bundle that includes a carrying case, tempered glass screen protector, performance thumbsticks, and a multi-docking station.

EDIT:
Antec has entered a partnership with handheld console maker Ayaneo, and is nearly ready to launch its first product under the name 'Core HS.' In short, it's the Ayaneo Slide under a different name,
Antec's first handheld console with a keyboard and floating screen should be available in the European and North American markets in June and July, according to the source. These units will be priced between $600 and $900 USD, and ship with Windows 11.
Ayaneo Slide lists the official pricing for its base configuration at $899 USD and the highest-spec version at $1,599 USD.

Despite competing in the handheld market against Asus ROG Ally X, MSI Claw, Steam Deck and a few others, Ayaneo does bring something new to the table with its designs and configuration options.
If this venture is profitable, it may encourage Antec and Ayaneo to introduce more models.
