    UMPCs are so underrated. Everyone says "just use a phone bro" but they're not really a tech person. I love projects like the MNT Pocket Reform and even the GPD Pocket 3. Full fledged PC experiences without big and bulky devices. 8-10 inches for PCs are just incredibly underrated. While many will say it's pointless, it's incredible how many 8-10 inch tablets already exist. The problem is that x86/x64 is really tough to put in mobile devices without heating issues. You can adjust TDP sure but you lose performance. I really hope the cooperation between Intel and AMD is truly going to shake the industry up. Intel's CEO coped hard about ARM processors saying they were just as efficient as ARM in mobile platforms. This is not true at all. Literally a month later they're collaborating with AMD to take on the threat of ARM.

    • @Kimmsito
      @Kimmsito  3 дні тому

      That's right, it was a critical mistake for Intel to try to compete in the mobile computing market with an x86 architecture processor when ARM-based products were already innovating the industry in the late 2000s. Their Atom processors failed to show not only better performance but also better power efficiency compared to ARM processors. Not to mention that they hardly made any efforts to alleviate difficulties in software.

    One UMPC i wanted back then was the Sony Vaio P Series which had a 1 or 2GB Ram and a 80-16GB SSD or HDD depending how you set it up when ordering the device at Sony's web online store, at the time the 8 inch screen and tiny keyboard was perfect on my hands since it was small but the $800 dollar price tag of that device meant that the rich is the only one that can afford it rofl, until now i still haven't got to buy one in complete/working condition since it's a rare piece of history now and is very hard to find with a reasonable price

    I just got a Legion GO for 500 dollars and suddenly my 1200 dollar RTX 4060 Ti PC has had it's use drastically diminished to virtual machines, demanding games, and video editing. You get a great gaming experience and essentially an on the go chonky Windows tablet for practically peanuts with a gorgeous screen. Criminally underrated device. The ability to adjust TDP is incredible for those long play sessions. I haven't owned a UMPC since the GPD Win 1 where it would actually get super hot playing SNES games. Just incredible how well this device runs.
