Claw 8 Ai +
The Claw 8ai+ is not only better than the Asus Rog Ally X... it is DEFINITELY THE BEST handheld you can find around 1000 euros. Technically and qualitatively. The merits are many. From the processor that is perfect, the right amount of RAM (32GB), noise and record-breaking temperatures, record-break

Is this really worth the wait
Yes, yes it is……got mine in the second round of shipments and it’s been amazing. I had a steam deck, ROG Ally X, and GPD Win4…….the Win5 is in its own league.

Privacy screens
Via screens dot com sell privacy screen film for the Win5. I fitted their matte film on top of the gpd glass screen protector and it's great. Pretty reasonable pricing too (but can't comment on international shipping prices as I'm in the UK where they are based).

New GPD Win 5: defect, trigger button came unattached.
Personally, I’d consider yourself lucky that the screw is there and the recessed metal post seems in good condition. I’d go online and google disassembly videos on how to open the GPD Win5. I’m sure someone has cracked it open by now. This is a Chinese company, and the following are conditions that

Replaying BOTW
Ignore the downvotes because I see no reason to ignore the math. I have the Rog XAX and id rather have a GpD Win5 or OneXplayer Apex. The APUs are over 2X or over 100% more performant than the Z2E and even moreso than the Z1E. Those handhelds will actually last just as long (most likely) as the next

GPD Win 5 Undervolt Scaling and Platform Comparison
Exactly, as long as you walk up on your value iteratively you're unlikely to make things so unstable it won't boot into windows. If you do go too far, the WIN5 has a paperclip bios reset button which is handy. CPU: One of the official/semiofficial videos from GPD covered the topic leading up to laun

Are we already at the point where 24GB RAM on handhelds isn’t that future-proof?
That's why handhelds with the Strix Halo (formerly GPD WIN5) at 75W TDP won't be very reliable in the medium term. The Lunar Lake is very energy efficient. I think MSI components are reliable, but I'm not sure.

Looking to get a better handheld than the Steam deck
If you've got the cash, might as well get the best handheld on the market: GPD Win5

Anyone ever buy a GPD device from these guys on eBay? Is there some kind of warranty with it?
So I've owned several GPD handhelds. A few OneXplayer handhelds. And rog ally and legion go. I've had 3 devices randomly stop working and on 2 of them gotten absolutely zero support. One was the rog ally. And 2 were onexplayer. As for GPD. Never had a single issue with my gpd win 5.5" (I only keep i
