In August, GPD came forward with exciting news about their Pocket 4 mini laptop, billing it as the first handheld device to boast AMD’s latest Strix Point APUs. Fast forward, GPD Game Consoles unveiled the pricing for these nifty gadgets on platform X. They’re kicking off at $895 for the model powered by AMD’s Zen 4 Ryzen 7 8840U, and if you’re eyeing the top-tier Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, the price skyrockets to $1,466, offering 64GB of RAM and 2TB of storage.
Weighing in at just 770 grams, the GPD Pocket 4 mini effortlessly transforms between a handheld, laptop, and tablet. Its versatile design includes a physical keyboard, a touchscreen, and even a touchpad. This updated model harnesses the power of AMD’s Zen 4 (Hawk Point) and Zen 5 (Strix Point) APUs, tailored for varying price levels. In essence, while aiming to maintain uniform specs, these models differ primarily in their APU, RAM, and SSD options. Notably, the Pocket Mini 4 showcases memory speeds of 7,500 MT/s, a stunning 2.5K 8.8-inch 144 Hz screen with a remarkable 97% DCI-P3 color spectrum and 500 nits of brightness, along with both Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity, all supported by a 28W TDP.
Per the official price list, the entry-level GPD Pocket 4 sets you back $895, or $829 if you catch the IGG campaign, featuring 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage, driven by AMD’s Radeon 7 8840U APU, which packs eight Zen 4 cores and the Radeon 780M iGPU.
If you’re considering jumping up to the Strix Point variant, the most affordable option includes the Ryzen AI 9 HX 365. This model showcases 10 Zen 5 cores and the Radeon 880M iGPU, priced at $1157, and comes with 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD.
For those willing to splurge, the flagship choice is the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, featuring 12 Zen 5 cores. This powerhouse is equipped with AMD’s top-of-the-line Radeon 890M iGPU, along with 64GB of RAM and a 2TB storage option, priced at $1,466, and there’s a model that offers an impressive 4TB as well.
Alongside the prime features, GPD revealed some interesting add-ons. There’s the EIA RS-232 module for $20 for those who work with legacy devices, and a 4G LTE module priced at $125 to keep you connected on the move. However, don’t count on an OCuLink port as the Pocket 4 skipped it, so you’ll have to turn to USB4 for external GPU use.
As for when you can get your hands on one, GPD hasn’t pinpointed an exact release but they’re aiming for launches by year-end, contingent on the crowdfunding campaign’s success.
It’s crucial to keep in mind that backing a crowdfunding project doesn’t assure you a finished product. It’s more of an investment, a show of faith in the project’s success, rather than a traditional purchase of a retail item.
