Contradictions and Corrections

Earlier wiki navigation attached ayaneo-pocket-ace to Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, but 2025-05-23-ayaneo-pocket-ace-review-youtube and ayaneo-pocket-ace-product-page both identify that product as Snapdragon G3x Gen 2. The Pocket ACE has therefore been removed from this chip page.
