You know how sometimes you stumble upon something and it makes you stop for a second, and you’re like, “Wait, what?” That’s kinda how I felt when I heard about GPD’s latest handheld gizmo, the Win 5. So, they’re rolling out this thing with the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395—sounds fancy, right? I mean, The Phawx on YouTube spilled some beans on it, but what really popped out to me was this monster 80Wh battery you can just yank out. Who does that anymore? It’s like they read our minds—swap when it dies, fix it easy. Boom.
Anyway, so this battery’s like your sidekick in a superhero flick. You slap it on your backpack or, I dunno, plop it on your desk while gaming. Lighter on your hands, less awkward cable fights. Oh! And if you’re the type that runs games ‘til everything melts, the removable battery’s kind of, let’s say, all kinds of cool.
Now, pause a sec, there’s the Ryzen AI Max 385 if you’re trying to save some bucks. Still alright, not the macho version but should keep you entertained on the go. Oh, and memory—configurable from 32GB to 128GB. I can barely keep up with all the RAM and storage lingo, so let’s say they offer options, from 1TB to 4TB. Games galore, I guess?
This thing’s a spec jungle if you ask me. Toss in a 7-inch screen—all touchy and nice—that’s an upgrade from the old 6-incher. And Gorilla Glass 6? Yeah, old-ish but probably does the job. But, Pro tip: don’t be shoving this beauty in your backpack without a case. Trust me, regrets happen.
People are hyped, me included, for its big reveal at, what was it, ChinaJoy 2025, August 1st. Price? Let’s pray it doesn’t break the bank, ha! Now, hoping it lives up to its potential and lands in our gaming circles soonish. But yeah, where did I go with this? Oh right, it’s something to keep an eye on.
And hey, if you’re into tech news, maybe you should check Tom’s Hardware on Google News. Just chucking that out there, no pressure!
