GPD has revealed the price of its upcoming Win Max 2 gaming laptop, which will start at $899. The hybrid PC/console was announced earlier this year with great specs, but if you want to buy it, you’ll be able to place your orders via Indiegogo starting later this week, on July 7 (or 7th, depending on your region). timeline).
Right now, GPD has posted a preview page for its Indiegogo campaign, revealing all the price tiers available for Win Max 2. The base model will start at $899, and include an AMD Ryzen 7 6800U, 16GB of RAM, and more. 128GB SSD, which makes it a very powerful device for this price, although the storage is a bit low. Oddly enough, it only costs $100 to upgrade to a model with a 1TB SSD, for a total of $999. You can then upgrade to 32GB of RAM for a total of $1,199 and go up to a 2TB SSD for $1,299. The $999 class is the only one that’s also available with an Intel Core i7-1260P instead of an AMD processor, if you prefer.
Apart from the powerful internal components, the GPD Win Max 2 comes with a 10.1-inch touchscreen display with an aspect ratio of 16:10 and Full HD+ (1920 x 1200) resolution. Includes both keyboard and console-like controls. Two analog sticks using Hall sensor technology (to prevent drift), a D-pad, four face buttons, and four shoulder buttons provide a traditional gaming experience, while the keyboard means you can also use this for work.
The selection of ports is also impressive, including Thunderbolt 4 / USB4, a standard USB Type-C port, multiple USB Type-A ports, SD and microSD card readers, and a headphone jack. There is also an SSD slot inside the device for additional internal storage. The power button even has a fingerprint sensor, which makes this computer a very good device.
The price of the device makes it noticeably more expensive than Steam Deck, which is perhaps the biggest competitor to GPD Win Max 2. Steam Deck pricing ranges from $399 to $649 depending on the storage configuration. But in fairness with GPD Win Max, it offers a lot more: a larger screen, a full keyboard, and plenty of ports included without the need for a dock. In addition, the AMD Ryzen 7 6800U should be faster than the custom AOU within Steam Deck (although this device will likely benefit from Steam Deck improvements as well).
If you are interested in reviewing GPD Win Max 2, you can keep an eye on the files Indiegogo campaign page. The campaign will officially launch on July 7 at 10AM UTC+8, or 10PM EST on July 6.
