    To be fair, the GPD brand has been around for years so it’s not like they saw the SteamDeck release and tried to profit on it. They’ve been THE brand that has been trying to push the portable gaming pc paradigm for a decade, until Valve just “made it right” (price, performances and usability).

    It doesn’t speak of the quality of the products nor the viability of their specific solutions, just a reminder they’re not a “random” brand.

      Fair.

      I see they have a number of little machines that can come in very handy in a lot of cases. So while I’m not convinced by that one specifically, it doesn’t reflect on the whole lineup. A lot of their gadgets are quite nice.

      However I’m more convinced by their “tech in a pocket” systems than by the gaming ones.
