it's shit, fuck off, no thanks

Why the shit would I need a laptop that's barely bigger than my dick?

>it craps itself when running minecraft

Great "laptop" you got there mate

He forgot to mention the battery lasts for 20 minutes

To be honest for the money i'd rather get an iPad or 11" ultrabook

>>59932722
The new iPad looks like an incredible buy at $329.
Faster than any Android tablet released despite using the A9, cheaper than most Android tablets and it actually has the best support for apps.

To be honest the pocket makes me wish GPD could make a more "premium" version of the GPD WIN with better finishing.

>>59932743
I'd rather buy a Samsung tablet though just for the AMOLED screen and Android though.

>>59932743
I wish it had pen support, i'm almost tempted to pay the extra scratch for that feature.

>>59932743

Yeah, great machine for skype and candy crush

We are talking abour real productivity devices not childrens' toys

>>59932743
There's no point whatsoever in buying Android tablets nowdays when you can buy a $200 Chromebook that you can actually be productive on since it comes with a keyboard and mouse. I just wish you could use the smart keyboard cover on the new iPad but you can't really complain for $329.

Don't the japs have a laptop which a similar size but much more powerful? Like a pocket thinkpad or something. I can't remember the name though...

>$450 for this shit with atom processor

>you can buy reputable chinese brand tablets with Core m3 processors for less than $350

You have to be literally autistic to buy this

>>59932770
>We are talking abour real productivity devices not childrens' toys
iPads are used as informational displays at most places.
iPads are also used as Point-of-sale terminals at a lot of stores.
iPads are used as textbooks in a lot of colleges and schools.
iPads are used as commercial pilots' reference devices.

Your manly "productivity device" in the OP is going to be used to play retro games and shitposting on reddit and 4chan. Now tell me again, which one is the children's toy, fucking autist.

>>59932640
I will wait until AMD releases their ultra lowpower and super fast Ryzen laptop CPU.

>>59932802

What use do I, a student have for an ipad? Can i write my notes on it? not without some awkward clanky keyboard

Can i do spreadsheets on it? Sure, let me just input formulas using touch

Can I use mathlab? Thats a no go.

Can I code in c/java at least? Nope.

You are literally the guy from "it's meme, you dip" video

Productivity rating by OS goes like this

iOS < Android < Linux < Windows/Mac

>>59932813

How is AMD still relevant in 2017?

A 2ghz cpu from AMD is slower than a 2ghz cpu from Intel

>>59932640

>>59932869
>Having all your notes in one electronic device that can be searched in and sorted however you want instead of a bunch of paper lying around everywhere is autism
You should also look up what words mean because that's the opposite of autism

>>59932640
>Would you buy it? It's $450
Stopped reading there. You would have to be literally retarded to spend so much on a shitty toy.

>>59932878

Having "styluses" that have a tip as large as my dickhead kinda beats the purpose.

Give me one of them surface pro styluses and then we can talk about talking notes

>>59932791

This.

Or even better, squeeze your buttcheeks for a little longer, get an extra $200 and you got yourself a brand new Surface pro 4, which is years ahead of this chink shit

In what situation wouldn't I be able to carry my X220?

>>59932825
The keyboards available for iPads are much less awkward than the one on the GPD Pocket

>128gb emmc

why?
I got new stock pilled hp elitebook 2570p for 300 usd with i5 and zenphone with intel for 150usd

>>59932791
Not even that, you could buy a business netbook with an Atom and at least not get something made like shit. Atoms aren't inherently bad if all you want is very simple tasks, unfortunately that monstrosity in the OP has a shitty keyboard to the most simple task (typing) is a near impossibility.

>>59932802
fucking rekt tbqh

>>59932640
stop shilling, pajeet ghale

>>59932988
Forgot to mention that the business netbook with Atom would cost 1/10 the price and last 10x as long.

>100$ tablet-tier CPU
>$450

Yeah no thanks.

>>59933046
>$100
you mean $37?
https://ark.intel.com/en/products/93362/Intel-Atom-x7-Z8750-Processor-2M-Cache-up-to-2_56-GHz

>>59932780
Agreed, but I'm going to shill one of the new win10 netbooks first. I was considering tablets but went with the asus x205 with 4gb ram.

I almost always have onenote, a few pdfs and about 20 tabs running on edge. As powerful as i need +12 hour battery is nice.

~25Gb of usable on-board storage is probably a deal breaker for most people, but i use it for nothing other than to study so i don't mind.

>>59933078
I think anon meant the CPU you'd find in a $100 tablet

>>59933137
nope, this is the highest tablet atom available on the market
all $100 tablets got x5 atoms instead

>>59933165

The difference between x5 and x7 is minimal, they are both shitty cpus that should not exist in 2017

>>59933115
Edge is pretty great but holy fuck is it slow to load pages. At least its easier on the battery and it scrolls buttery smooth.
It's still Chrome for me unfortunately.

>>59933174
Sad thing is AMD have a fairly decent Atom competitor that nobody uses because intel literally give away atoms to maintain marketshare.

>>59933294
>AMD
>Decent Atom competitor
>runs at literally 15-20w
>enjoy your pocket fire

>>59933315
15W at nominal clocks, up to 32W on turbo. It's worse than a regular Ultrabook Intel CPU, which also has slightly faster graphics.
That AMD SoC is a fucking joke.

>>59932825
>What use do I, a student have for an ipad?
I have all my textbooks and a bunch of educational videos on it. Pretty convenient.

However, I'm sure there will be enough Autist buying those. Right now it's pretty much the only of it's kind, if you don't count all the outdated netbooks.

no it's not
x7-z8750 doesn't have the hardware T&L bug that is inside x5-z8500 and similar atoms, also it has 50% faster iGPU

>>59933986
Doesn't mean that they'll actually release it. This is a noname company on Indiegogo we're talking about here. Even if they release it, it would be a flimsy piece of shit with zero longevity.

all broadwell and broadwell-based architectures got this issue where lightning is gray/black, aka. alpha blend bug.
Check out pic rel. If you're familiar with l4d2 maps then this is a screenshot of last "No Mercy" campaign (safe room). Brightness is set to maximum, and yet everything is so fucking dark than this makes most games unplayable.
Also issue is not fixable via driver. Intel identified this issue as "non-critical" and it's noted in official spec update of both i7-5600u (and similar) series and xX-z8X00 atom series

Why does gdp have to shill on /g/? they did it already with the stupid gaymur machine.

Gotta love the misleading advertising too, trying to make it look like thier PoS atom is twice as good as the MBA when it's a lot worse

also
>$600 retail (read: if you dont want to preorder this device that has not been reviewed properly)

>>59934155
thats because gpd overheats and the cpu is throttling. Normally if it's running at the maximum of it's capabilities it works fine.
Also there is a difference between single and dual channel memory. On single channel it could be unplayable because iGPU performance is degraded.

>>59934174

Lol what

Left 4 dead was one of the few games i was planning on playing on this chinkshit

>>59934181

They are also saying that the Macbook Air is "heavy" and "bulky"

>>59934195
senpai, as I said this issue is only visible on night maps. If you play relatively bright maps then it should be fine.
also I don't know if l4d is affected. L4D2 runs on newer revision of source engine.

It crapped itself with minecraft in 4k but in its native it worked fine. That aside we're not here to play poorly coded java lego games. I'd love to have it for some photo and video work and that it should be able to pull off.

Apollo Lake SoCs use more power/generate more heat and they are only marginally faster
Kaby Lake M3 would be a better idea for such a device than an Apollo Lake, but I guess even that would be too much for it's size

the device itself is pointless though, the SoC is fine for what it's being used

How do you include a high end (lol, I know) atom, 8 GB RAM then gimp it with fucking eMMC? My shitty $175 netbook has eMMC. But I don't care because it's a shitty $175 netbook. This thing costs $600.

>>59937945
what's wrong with emmc?
You do realize there is no space inside to fit m2 port and a fully sized ssd?
not to mention power consumption of m2 drives, which is much higher than emmc.
emmc is a soc of ssds. It has controller, ram and nand modules on the same die. This way tou can save a lot of power.

I like how Chinks create "fake" campaigns to gain media attention and demand.

The probably already have the units assembled.

>>59937996

emmc is basically an sd card soldered into the motherboard

after some read/write cycles it gets terribly slow, like android phones do

>>59937996
>what's wrong with emmc?
It's slow you dipshit.

>>59938023
and what is SSD drive in your retarded opinion?
eMMC is NOT an sd card. eMMC handles TRIMming and wear leveling. No SD/mSD card has this.
Please go be uneducated somewhere else.
>>59938024
"slow" by who's standard, /v/ cancer?
eMMC has revisions, and the newest one achieves 250MBps write/read. You must be a gaymur cancerous cock-sucking faggot if that's not enough for you.

GET THE FUCK OUT

eMMC uses 0.2W of power when active. SSD uses 3-4W. That's MORE THAN A CPU INSIDE THIS THING.
KILL YOURSELF

>>59938823
You keep quoting this 250MBps shit like it actually means something. You do realize that that is sequential right? Sequential being the speed that matters the absolute least when it comes to responsiveness.
eMMC has dog slow 4k access times and shit controllers. It's cheap shit. If it was so good, it would be used in things other than cheapest of the cheap chink shit phones. Even the iPhone doesn't use eMMC. Why? Because it is shit.

>>59938927
You based your argument on speed. Then when you got btfo, you moved the goalpost to power use. At this point, I realize you are trolling.

>>59938929
maybe (((in comparison))) it's shit, but it's the only appliance we got on the market for such low powered devices.
Do you understand, you stupid fucktard, that you cannot just stick a normal SSD inside this thing because you'll rape the battery life?
Compare power consumption of eMMC and standard SSD on the market. Do it now
Did you see how small the battery is? This Atom SoC problably doesn't even have a SATA controller in it.

>>59938972
My argument was about speed, which is enough for almost everyone needs. No, I'm not counting you and your retarded needs.

Wow man. The Galaxy S6 had UFS storage. How could you possibly be so ignorant and uninformed. Literally everything you are saying is wrong. You are embarrassing yourself.

I'm not even going to dignify your "applel" comment. I don't give a fuck about the iPhone either but I was responding to the comment that "every smartphone uses emmc". The iPhone is a smartphone. It does not use emmc. Get it through your thick heads you don't have a clue what you are talking about.

>>59939438
gpd is not an iphone. It's a x86 based computer. Not a fucking smartphone. It's a completely different architecture.
You CANNOT use nvm/ufs memory in it.
And I don't give a shit about smartphones. I only told you that eMMC memory is 100% usable in mobile devices, just like it's usable in GPD that this entire thread is all about.
maybe I was wrong about all devices having emmcs, but this is not the point of this discussion. You're picky.
Kill yourself.

>>59939521
>gpd is not an iphone. It's a x86 based computer. Not a fucking smartphone. It's a completely different architecture.
Are you fucking stupid? The NVMe controller in the iPhone is a lightly modified one from the Macbook. There is no excuse for any laptop anywhere to have eMMC storage. What the fuck is wrong with /g/ today? Go back to >>/b/ fucking jackass.

>>59939634
>Also again: atom doesn't have enough resources to handle nvm memory. It does not have free pcie lines and it does not have sata controller.
Read this over and over again until you understand.
Dumbass

>windows10 install on a ememec
lmao

>>59932640
I have one preordered for a more mobile pen testing system
only concern is I'll probably have to use a usb wifi transmitter instead but that's not too surprising. I can only guess it's using the same shitty sdio setup most chink intel tablets use where the wifi and bluetooth are on a fucking emmc bus. 4.11 rc5 improved it alot, even better than the windows driver now but it's still shit compared to a proper wireless card

>>59939521
The issue is not that eMMC is merely "slow". The problem is that it has terrible painful random read/write speeds. It is going to relegate the entire GPD experience to being low end suck. I'm excited about a laptop I can put in my pocket. But not one that will have me cursing at it every time I try to use it. No thanks.
>>59939680
>atom doesn't have enough resources to handle nvm memory. It does not have free pcie lines and it does not have sata controller.
That's a bunch of fucking bullshit. The x7-Z8750 has 2 pci express 2.0 lanes and a 2x1, 1x2 pci express configuration which is way more than enough to support SATA or NVMe.
But please shamelessly continue to expose your ignorance to the rest of /g/. I'm enjoying making you look like a fool.

>>59939736
>where the wifi and bluetooth are on a fucking emmc bus.
You don't understand the difference between sdio and emmc, right?

>>59939790
>more than enough to support SATA or NVMe.
So you need another SATA controller. Which uses more power.
>NVMe
>Don't worry, it ain't a discrete NVMe controller or Serdes or any physical boundary of "SSD," but logic that gets integrated into A9 and presented like an NVMe to the OS.
https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/iPhone+6s+Teardown/48170

So now please show me a single x86 tablet with Atom CPU on the market that uses nvm storage instead of emmc.
Go on

>>59939790
>But please shamelessly continue to expose your ignorance to the rest of /g/. I'm enjoying making you look like a fool.

you're pathetic.

>>59939969
you spamming and shilling this horse shit gadget for free is pathetic.

>>59939874
>So you need another SATA controller. Which uses more power.
You do that and go from shittastic painful storage speed to great storage and instead of 12 hours of battery life you end up with 11. That's what's called a rational trade-off. Battery life had nothing to do with the decision to go with eMMC.

>So now please show me a single x86 tablet with Atom CPU on the market that uses nvm storage instead of emmc.
The GPD isn't a tablet in case you didn't notice. With the extra room inherent with a laptop form factor especially how thick this thing is, the makers made the explicit choice not to add a controller for an acceptable type of storage. They could have but they didn't and no amount of crying or shilling from you is going to change that.

>>59940090
Now you start taking numbers out of your ass.
Then show me not a tablet, but any device with atom x7-8XXX and NVMe memory.
I can guarantee you that if such combo could be possible then this new GPD would have one.

>>59938823

Get a life

>>59940224
Then obviously a x7-8XXX was a bad idea you dumb fuck thanks for proving everyone's point.

how does it feel to be intellectually inferior, boy?

>>59939027.
>Do you also hate smartphones and bitch all the time about slow eMMC inside? You know EVERY single smartphone on the market has eMMC drive in it?

Are you fucking thick?

>>59940319
show me an alternative that can handle such amount of heat and not overheat.
Also it can't cost $9000.

>>59940224
First you say:
>Now you start taking numbers out of your ass.
Then you pull this where from? Your ass:
>I can guarantee you that if such combo could be possible then this new GPD would have one.
Does your face hurt from talking out of both sides of your mouth?
>Then show me not a tablet, but any device with atom x7-8XXX and NVMe memory.
>>59940336
>show me an alternative that can handle such amount of heat and not overheat.
I don't have to do that. The mere fact that the thing supports USB C means it is capable of supporting storage faster than eMMC. But aside from that, even if the GPD's makers had chosen a SOC that cripples what kind of storage they can use the obvious answer is they should have chosen something else. Like oh, I don't know, the Core fucking *m*?

Lol the amount of pent of sexual frustration in this thread.

This thing is a neat concept. The keyboard seems tiny AF. It has decent specs apart from emmc and even then we should wait for benchmarks. I might shell out $400 for it not a cent more though.

>>59940336
>show me an alternative that can handle such amount of heat and not overheat.
how about don't mass produce such a shitty device?

>>59940358
It does support USB C, just like Asus T100HA and any other similar products.
But it's just a connector, and the interface is in fact USB 3.0.
You now imply using USB 3.0 to handle system drive. Good fucking luck.
>they can use the obvious answer is they should have chosen something else.
>Core M
Core M has minimal TDP of 4.5W. x7 has TDP of 2W. See the difference?
Good luck having Core M CPU in this thing and not having it melt steel beams.
Ever thought why most of these ultra thin 8" tables all got Atoms instead of Core M CPUs?
Yes you fucking gay retard, because Core M requires gigantic cooling system.

Yes. The difference is 2.5 watts
>Good luck having Core M CPU in this thing and not having it melt steel beams.
Yet there are a plethora of tablets with Core M Cpus that not only run cool, they run all day long and they run without fans. Oh and they don't use eMMC.
Your shilling has failed. Have a nice day.

>7" keyboard
It's shit. Too small for regular touch-typing, too big for thumbs. I doubt even chinks have small enough hands to use it comfortably. The smallest laptop I could find usable would be around 10" (unless it had some different construction which allowed it to present a bigger keyboard when opened, like Thinkpad butterfly keyboard)

>>59932640
Just wish it were affordable

Why does /g/ hate unique technology now?

Didn't some people here cry for UMPCs to be brought back even though they all had worse performance than the GPD Pocket (while also being a lot more expensive). Now this thing came out and everyone here hates it?

That's very nice senpai.

GPD is 7".

>>59932640
This at most 300 max,250 average.

>>59936742
>>59940178
Look it up, min/max power consumption is 2W (33%/50%) higher but the performance increase is only 30-50%, you can't use a SoC like that in such a machine, unless you want to wear gloves and enjoy the battery lasting half as long.

Do you people even read posts you reply to? Fuck this chink shit and OP shilling it, but damn, you guys are ignorant and dumb.

>>59942671
I don't understand why people keep bringing up how they could buy something else with that money. Niche devices almost always come with a higher price. There are not many (if at all) current UMPCs to choose from.

>>59942764
Because a 7 inch keyboard isn't big enough to type comfortably on so you may as well get a tablet or a notebook. UMPC isn't just niche its useless.

>>59942837

Windows 10 uses 3.7GB on a clean install. It's incredibly small for a modern operating system that has 20 years worth of backwards compatibility bloat. Ubuntu uses 4.7GB, Android 6.0 and newer uses around 4-9GB depending on the phone, iOS 10 uses 5GB, MacOS Sierra uses 16GB.

>>59944295
>Windows 10 uses 3.7GB on a clean install
What is this wizardry? I did a clean install of windows 10 ultimate a few months ago and I think it was around 17GB right after install and climbed to ~24GB after several months. It is now around 29GB.
