I was wondering whether is this GPD Pocket: 7.0' UMPC-Laptop 'Ubuntu or WIN 10 OS' are really that good?
Its on Indiegogo from the GPD XD company.

Price at $399 USD.

There are plenty of good quad core tablets available on the market right now.

Such as the Asus T100HA detachable tablet / netbook $399 - Intel core atom x5

Not to say that this isn't good. A lot of kickstarters over promise and under deliver. Sometimes not deliver.
Specifications are impressive though it may be subjected to change and feature sets not finalised.

Ok thanks bro,

Hmm, it is refreshing cause it is an unknown brand with an interesting umpc form factor concept!

Though you might have to bear in mind of the risks involved in such backings - many case studies on it as well as warranty and parts support!

Ok thanks bro,

Hi, i'm also interested in this, and this company has delivered on an earlier product in Indiegogo called the GPD WIN which is an actual PC in a Nintendo 3DS form factor. Linus gave it quite a good score.

What i'm concerned is the charger packaged is a
5V/2.5A American Charger which i assume looks like this?

Can we still buy a Universal Travel Adaptor and plug it into our Singapore 3PIN plug powerpoint? Will it blow up ? lol~

Nvm, ignore my earlier post. i just ordered a GPD Win instead.
I prefer the smaller form factor of 5.5 inches lol.
Can't wait to play Stardew Valley on the go!

Look at the input range. Faintly made up in the image that it is 110 to 240v
Should be fine. Or you can simply req a UK plug

Looks underpowered to me that though it may be good for light games and usage.

Anyway, it almost looks like we are going back in the days of the PDA form factor.

If your purpose is to play games, I think more worth it to buy a Vita ($250 before qoo10 discounts)and homebrew it or use dualshock 4 and play PSP games on android phone. There are more games which plays well compared to buying GDP Win.
