| Cerebralbore101 said: I've never even heard of the original GPD Win. I googled it, and it just looks awful. Launched at a $450 USD. No physical games, and almost no onboard HD, meaning you need to drop money into a memory card to download your games. The analog stick placement is way wrong. The only thing good about it is the 6-8 hour battery life, but I wonder how long that would really last playing PC games at 60 FPS/1080p. Ok, now that I can see the images they've improved on the original model. Replaceable SSD, even better battery life, and a lot of nice doodads thrown in. What's the launch price going to be? |
Screen is 720p like the Switch, but battery size is more than double of that inside Nintendo's hybrid.
It has a CoreM (plus the M.2 SSD) which I think will make it expensive, we'll see the price next month.
They gave some hinters on performance: "For example, try playing Grand Theft Auto 5 on the GPD Win, and you’ll be stuck looking at about 20 frames per second, use the GPD Win 2 and you get 38 fps. Overwatch jumps from under 30 fps to more than 70. And DOTA 2 jumps from just over 30 fps to 70 fps."
