@@SCPbAn003 Ben is an OG! Been following his content right from XDA! My sources tell me we might get the Pocket Go in Nigeria though. I hope it happens cos after my initial hands-on with it, I really want to get one.
@@izziboye hopefully we do , but our naira rate will really bump up the price. Anyways let it come first 😂. I started following Ben since his "vivo campaign" here on UA-cam, I think the x60 series.
I guess this thing would be even more amazing with the newest gen mobile CPUs like Ryzen AI 300 series or Intel Core Ultra 200 series, since they are not only quicker, but far more efficient.
60hz screen is not enough for gaming too. This chip can do 200+ fps in some online fps game. Even at aaa game with upsale and frame gen u can get almost 100 fps i belive !
I mean 60hz isnt that bad but 120 still would be better but I dont think wanting a screen that is 120 hz is not right because to make it into this device you have to make the device ultra expencive
I find this channel is consistently ahead of the curve, to the point people annoyingly refuse to believe me when I tell them what's possible today thanks to what I learned here. Keep it up!
Thanks Ben. I appreciate your review. I am bit of a gamer ( i mean started playing playstation one when i was just 8 years old). This is a great device and im pretty surprised at the processing power this has. All in one controller... i think this product is pretty amazing. Im with you on the cable scenario.. if its broken... there goes the idea of a handheld device... very very annoying... the company should reconsider... good feedback. I definitely this is a better idea still than the current gen switch has absolutely no AR/VR support. Sony's Portal is simply just a remote player... so not really console when you think about it. I, however, thought the PS5 prices were high but this seems right up there as well. I do respect the tech it has though. Thanks again.
@@HakuYuki001 Yes, I was 8 when I got a Playstation (one). It was back in 1998. First games I had played on the console was; GranTurismo and Soulblade.
This is awesome, but if the battery drains while it’s plugged in that might be deal breaker for me. I’ll wait for the V2 and see if they improve upon that.
Does it have it's own game launcher like armory crate, Legion Space, and Steam OS? Also, how do you navigate windows without a touchpad or touch screen? Personally, I hate having to use the Ally's thumbsticks to navigate the mouse inputs.
Do you know if you can upgrade the Ram and the HD. I would like to buy the lesser expensive one and if I find I am using it I would just upgrade the ram and HD later but if you cannot I would opt for the higher spec model.
the question is how much is it going to be and the AR glasses way of playing your games doesn't seem a goood way to me. i know a lot of people are going to like the idea i would personally just use a monitor
Hi all, Tecno as of 10/18 has updated their Kickstarter campaign to include a option without the AR Glasses, so you can now select the Controller Compute Unit which is awesome! That makes the entry price at around $539 USD + shipping which is a great price for a portable gaming unit that provides full OS and option to run other OSes, and allows you to select the AR glasses, portable USB-C monitor or external monitor of your choosing which is awesome!!! Great entity point to portable PC gaming!! Okay just spreading the word, since this is great news!!
Is this going to release in 2024 or 2025? I've researched "Tecno" and they are the 9th largest smartphone brand, owning 4% of the market, but they are new to us in the Western World. However, they have VERY affordable foldable phones.
I Love This, I just want the compute unit, and not the glasses since I already have the glasses! Hey Ben, can I please buy this from you please, even though this maybe a pre-release version? I can dm you if it is possible. Thanks bud!
Isn't it better to just use a mini PC box, rather than one with a joystick, With a mini PC box we can use an alternative joystick if it's damaged, just add a touch sensor for navigation on the mini PC box if you want to make it easier to control.
they should cap the tdp to 15 or less as standard.. 20-30 is overkill for a portable.. steam deck is just 15 and you can lower it so easily with 2 clicks.
A modern version of the virtua boy concept? Hahahaha... thats cool. I really liked the idea, I hope it keeps improving. I think the USB connection for the vr glasses should be put on the botton of the controller. And the part that connect with the glasses should be in a Y shape (connecting to both legs of the glasses), so the cable can come from there from a centralized position. In doing that, I think the cable would not come in contact with your arms, which can be a bit of a bother, and also make it possible for your arm to get entangled with the cable. If it comes from the center, that would not happen.
This looks so dope bruh!!! Can't wait to try it! Do you know if they are gonna sell just the controller unit without the glasses? I have Viture Pro XR glasses
The problem with this otherwise great idea and design IS the thumbsticks are not modular and easy to replace. If you get stick drift or it breaks. The whole thing is basically bricked.
can't wait for the vivo x200 pro video... i hope I'm going to be impressed. can't wait to see what vivo has in store for us. After how great x100pro was in ways even beating the ultra version... i really hope 200pro will continue the trend of stepping the camera level in a smartphone to yet unachieved heights
Cool idea but the weak GPU and poor controller will let it down i imagine, in the future when mobile graphics look like todays high end graphics these things will be popular i imagine
This tech puts me to sleep & there is just no way I’m the only one. I’m not saying b/c it’s boring or something. Literally there is something about AR screen technology that triggers actual sleepiness & I can’t use it… unless I take a nap first. It’s not that dissimilar from vr causing motion sickness. Just a warning in advance b/c while I’m not everyone there is no way it’s just me.
This is such a cool idea! Finally, the real Virtual Boy :)
I freakin love the concept
I will get my hands on this!
Thanks for the solid review Ben 👍🏽
Thank you
It's really cool and nice to see you watch Ben's content.
I just wish it were easy to get the devices he reviews down to our country.

I like this idea. Using it with a lapdock would also be interesting.
That boys is a potable Play Station with a twist
This is a great concept. Its very small and has enough to run full games.

you didnt mention the price includes glasses or without? because if without its overpriced and not worth it.
Hey i have question about glasses they are the best atm for entertaiment? Did you maybe set steering a crosshair or camera with head movement;)?

Price ?
What happens if controller gets stick drift, or accidentally breaks? It would be an expensive replacement.
Nice review keep it up as always Ben's bro
can i use the glasses on other handhelds?
Can you also pass through hdmi on the glasses like if you wanted to use your work laptop on it?
Is the game pre-installed? sorry, im not a gamer. But i do like playing games every now and then.
the question is how much is it going to be and the AR glasses way of playing your games doesn't seem a goood way to me. i know a lot of people are going to like the idea i would personally just use a monitor
Retail? You can count on that 900/1000$
Ben, you're draining my pocket faster than I can recharge😂
This is something i’d love to have while doing chemo… where can I buy one?
I think this one is nice concept, I will keep looking for this product.
where to buy
been waiting since ces in jan
how about only glasses into high end pc can you show video ?

old concept of swappable battery should be back in the business
я мечтаю о таком устройстве. Представляю, как лежу на диване в очках и геймпадом в руках, а перед глазами огромный монитор
Is this going to release in 2024 or 2025?

Do you think I use the glasses with an rog ally x
@@MoIcasiano you can but this simply reduces the weight even further which is pretty wild.
I think it's really the time for Sonny to recreate the PSP

Imagine how strong they could make this thing if they put it in something as tall as the Duke 😂
The Tekken player in me wants to try this knowing that those precise inputs would be damning to my fingers lolol
Nice. Very portable.
Wow... this is really... something! :D
hot stick in the true sense.
Imagine getting asked, where's your PC?
*Takes out the controller* 🎮
That permanently attached usb cable was a bad move. I wonder how much they save with it 🤔
It’s probably for battery saving purposes, as battery life is already not great and Bluetooth would drain it faster
@@Camreezyy They could have added a usb c female port so one can replace the cable if needed just like Ben said.
@@GtheJuggler oh shit I missed the words permanently attached. Yeah that’s dumb af and a deal breaker for me
i love this idea！
This is dope but you wont find channels like MKBHD reviewing it😞

What if we made the controller the pc? Genius.
i need this
add a 7 inch screen and mount it and its perfect handheld with removable battery
The problem with this otherwise great idea and design IS the thumbsticks are not modular and easy to replace. If you get stick drift or it breaks. The whole thing is basically bricked.
WOnder if i can load FFXI onto it.
Dropping this thing will be expensive.
they made a huge miss with 60Hz display...
can't wait for the vivo x200 pro video... i hope I'm going to be impressed. can't wait to see what vivo has in store for us. After how great x100pro was in ways even beating the ultra version... i really hope 200pro will continue the trend of stepping the camera level in a smartphone to yet unachieved heights
"Whoreyouken" 😂
Just buy a steam deck oled and some AR glasses
$1700, nah, just nah, you can buy an RTX 4070 laptop for that price
wow
Adding "pocket" to the name is a bit of an overstament
Shoryuuuuuken
Cool idea but the weak GPU and poor controller will let it down i imagine, in the future when mobile graphics look like todays high end graphics these things will be popular i imagine
I was sold on this until the charging part, they should've added a 120w charger specially at nearly $900, come on...
Are there vibration motors in the controller?
Yes there is
@@bensgadgetreviews Thank you and great Video! Am so excited for this to come out
hooo 800 usd
🇬🇭
Steam OS is far better optimised for portable gaming..
