It's a GPD Win Mini (2023)! With SteamOS 3.9 and some plugins (lsfg-vk and decky-framegen), MW5 does 70 - 120 FPS easy for around 2 hours of game time, on a device that's marginally bigger than a 3DS

Should I or should I not

My guy there's no miracle portable for you. You will always need to try to squeeze some frames out of a tiny box powered by a tiny battery with a tiny fan and heatsink. Or you could just settle for the frames it can do without getting into a rabbit hole of tinkering and play some games in pure bliss

need help with picking my next console(s) :D

my GPD win mini gets 2-5 hours depending on the game. the battery's capacity is 45Wh (watts/hour) and sonic x shadow generations drains 17-20 watts to get 60 fps on medium graphics at 720p, but something like sonic adventure 2 will drain 6-8 watts. transformers devastation drains 10-16 watts at 720p

Help me decide which to buy

i currently use og lego z1e (same perf as 8840u) and gpd win mini 2025 hx370. the additional performance at the max wattage may be 10-15%, like nothing. But the performance at lower wattage is 25w z1e = 17w hx370 and the 18w z1e = 12w hx370. you simply get less heat and more batterylife by choosing

Flow Z13 handheld vs gpd win mini 2025 vs Legion Go vs Rog Ally X vs steam deck.

Sorry that's what I meant even though I didn't explicitly say it, but that is the more accurate statement. The GPD win Mini 2025 runs best at 18 watts in terms of power, heat and battery life which makes it equivalent in performance to a Z1E at full wattage 28-30 watts.

Need help picking a steam friendly handheld

I have and absolutely love my GPD Win Mini I have a preorder Ryzen 7840u model from the launch back at the end of 2022 / start of 2023 and haven't had a good enough reason to upgrade it yet. The clamshell design is significantly more portable than the Steam Deck, Rog Ally, etc as it protects itself

Ice cold, inform me

I don't have either device specifically, but I can give u my take having owned the mini 2024, a steamdeck, a legion go, max 2 2023, and a pocket 4 2025. Pros: clamshell design. It puts the screen above ur controller and it protects the screen when not in use. Idk if ur comfortable putting ur rig in

XAX, GPD Win Mini or legion go S?

Mini is great. Lower power draw and limit fan speeds and its a gg on everything. Of course you could expect the mini winning on the gpd sub
