Yeah, it's like twice the price, plus some hardware issues and not always great repair support.
Pricing is definitely GPD's issue, but yes hardware issues as well. I have a Win Max 2, and it was neat at the time, but it costs way more than a Steamdeck and really isn't as powerful. When you play a game on it it runs so hot and the fans are like a jet engine. I pretty much use it as tiny laptop these days and use the Steamdeck for any real handheld gaming.
Poor usage with Windows as well. My GPD-1 got so much better when I ran Linux on it, but it wasn't easy to install it.
I didn’t know the Gotham Police Department was in the games market.
holy shit these are the netbooks i've been looking for
What's GPD
A handheld PC manufacturer
their devices look so cool but they cost so much and have no power
Have no power? They're running the same exact processors that the other manufacturers are using.
not the ones at a comparable price point. the ones at a comparable price are super underpowered compared to modern handhelds.
