The GPD Win 2 is handheld computer that looks like a cross between a tiny laptop and a Nintendo DS. It’s a clamshell device that’s a bit larger than a chunky phone, and which features a 6 inch touchscreen display, a QWERTY keyboard and built-in game controller buttons. The device starts shipping this month and is expected to show up in retail stores shortly thereafter.

That’s going to be insane APU performance in a portable. I can’t wait to see how it benchmarks.
This brand still exists? I remember they were making wacky looking PSVita and DS clones when I was a teen lmao
The GPD Win 4 can be purchased starting December 19 on Indiegogo for a starting price of $799.
A product that gives Sony's board of directors PTSD ... I love it. 🤣
They must be banging their heads on the wall for acting so fullish and leaving the mobile market completely to nintendo, by now, and this product is the nail to their coffin of neglect.

a ps vita owner that payed for your predatory one-of-a-kind stupid memory cards.
Really wish they just kept up with the hardware, they could have been in a good position passed the huge success of 3DS.
The Indiegogo for this Steam Deck alternative that looks like a PS Vita goes live next month.
Looks good. I still have my Win 2 and really like it. It turned into a hobby though, putting in a modded heat sink to deal with overheating and replacing a speaker, thumbsticks, and keyboard along with other little issues along the way. I'm still glad I got into it, but having a steam deck from a big company like Valve has advantages
I do love the SteamDeck. I haven’t seen another mobile PC that hits all the right marks for me to want to move away from it, yet. The display is the only weak point of the Deck IMO. I do like the idea of a physical keyboard being built in though… I wonder about the typing experience on keys that small.
I want me a steam deck, remotely play ps5 games on it, play steam games and others. Also emulate older systems on it.
I've always preferred the psp/vita shape than Nintendo's handhelds. Been thinking about getting a gpd so will keep an eye out.
Lol at "inspired". It looks like they literally just repurposed a Vita. Sony gonna have a field day with their lawyers
The gamepads on either side of the screen look like they are ripped directly off a vita? Even the finished silver bar around the outside.
Just because they dropped a new screen and keyboard into the middle of it doesn't hide the fact that the entire frame looks near identical to Sony's hardware
It may not hide the fact, but the redesign is plenty significant. I doubt Sony could win any lawsuit based off alleged patent infringement.
Ordering as soon as it's up, Picked up a win 3 a few weeks ago for cheap so ill sell that to front the cost a bit.
I like this better over the other handhelds out as a portable pc, and win 3 almost had it so I think win 4 will be amazing for my planned usage outside of occasional gaming. Digging the psp go /vita looks
Yeah, but can it run Crysis?
Can it even mine cryptocurency? No bitcoin...no way ;-/
does anyone still remember Smach Z
