    I love my mini, its amazing. Fixes the issue of the portability problem with the deck ally and go. Having the keyboard and trackpad makes it so windows is just as easy to use as any laptop. You dont need any mediocre software to hide windows inability to be a portable OS. And the gpd software doesnt look fancy but works better then any other. Auto tdp and fps limits just work. It will never freeze up on you. To prevent it from tipping over i added a flip out laptop riser foot.

      @@eiceys4612 7 inches works really really for the majority of AAA titles. The only issue would be text being smaller if you have subtitles on, but I find it legible. It really depends on your tolerance. As mentioned in the review, the bottom corners do tend to dig into your palm a bit, and although noticeable, it’s not unbearable. I really don’t notice it after I begin playing. Overall, I think it’s very comfortable once you get used to the layout. The Win Mini does get quite warm though after even short play sessions. Not terribly uncomfortable, but something to keep in mind. I wouldn’t recommend going over a 18w TDP while using it as a handheld. Personally, I would definitely recommend the Mini if you don’t mind spending a bit more, especially the 2024 refresh. I’ve running Bazzite instead of Windows and behaves just like a steam deck. I wouldn’t recommend the legion. I would wait for Lenovo to do a refresh or consider the Ally X. You’ll have a far better experience.

    Wait so the model that even performs the same as the legion go is significantly more expensive and the device gets really hot and it’s still a worthy competitor to the legion go, interesting…🤔

    • @creaturecore13
      @creaturecore13 6 місяців тому +4

      It doesnt get significantly hot unless you install the bios that unlocks it passed 20w. It gets mildly warm at most up until then. After 20w you see virtually no gain in performance with these chips and kill your battery life. But if docked you can run at 28w and be fine as the internals are not that hot. And its a completely different form factor then the go. The go is worse to carry then my significantly more powerful g14 laptop. Why would you travel with the go?

    • @CJTheTokay
      @CJTheTokay 6 місяців тому +1

      did we watch the same video where he mentions that he worries it could get hot enough to cook sd cards like the ally? how is the go worse to travel with than a laptop its smaller, you can take the joy cons off and throw them in a bag with the tablet the legion go is not that hard to travel with at all, you also bring up that your laptop is more powerful but I bet you it’s way more expensive

    • @creaturecore13
      @creaturecore13 6 місяців тому

      @@CJTheTokay You can get last years models for about the same price as the Go so no, the g14 isnt more expensive. And yes, a laptop fits perfect in a laptop compartment. The go in its case takes up a massive amount of room in the backpack. I did watch the video and actually own the mini. I think i know how warm it gets. He unlocked it passed 20w. It comes locked at 20w and you can only unlock it by requesting a bios from gpd to be emailed to you. Up to 20w it simply is not hot. After 20w it can feel hot on the plastics. But the difference in fps is so small from 20-28w on the 7840u and z1 extreme chips it simply isnt worth going that high. And it will not fry the SD card, the plastic if measured with a thermal gun at 28w is under 50c. You arent frying a SD card at 50c. The sd card is also on its own board. The area that gets the hottest on his unit is the SSD. They used an inefficient SSD that heats up pretty bad. I had bought the 512 model knowing this and upgraded to my own Samsung ssd that stays under 60c while gaming and as high as 71c while downloading a game.

      ​@@CJTheTokaywell it's pretty much common sense that legion go is a much bigger device. Unless you plan to leave your joysticks at home which is weird .

  • @Sup_D

    If you are spending over $1000 on this, i would say that it would be better to go for the "GPD WIN Max 2 (2023)" edition.
