Like the predecessor ''OpenPandora'', the Pyra includes features from several architectures making it a cross between a handheld game console, a [[subnotebook]], a [[Personal digital assistant|PDA]], and a [[smartphone]].

The Pyra design aims for modularity and openness in software as hardware alike. For instance the [[Printed circuit board|PCB]] is separated in three parts: CPU board (CPU, RAM and storage), mainboard (ports, 
Wifi[[Wi-Fi]] and Bluetooth) and the display board. The replaceable CPU board allows future upgrades of CPU and RAM. The Pyra is assembled with screws (not glued) and is therefore repair and modification friendly.
