GamePad Digital GPD G7A is a horizontal gaming handheld. Powered by the RockChip RK3188 with 1 GB RAM. Features a 7" TFT display at 1024 x 600. Runs Android 4.2.
By today's standards this is modest hardware, so the G7A is best viewed as a machine for classic retro emulation and lighter Android games. Older consoles and arcade titles are its natural territory. More demanding systems will quickly push the processor and its 1 GB of memory to their limits.
The 7-inch TFT panel with a 1024 x 600 resolution is the device's standout feature. It gives retro games a generous canvas and keeps menus easy to read. TFT is not the most advanced panel technology, but the large diagonal goes a long way toward making up for it.
On the controls side, the G7A offers dual analog sticks, handy both for Android games and for emulated systems that use analog input. There are only L1 and R1 shoulder buttons. Games that expect a second pair of triggers may need remapping.
The battery is rated at 3700 mAh, and charging and data transfer run through a Micro USB port. A Mini HDMI output lets you connect the handheld to a TV or monitor for big-screen sessions. The 8 GB of internal storage can be expanded with microSD cards of up to 32 GB, enough for a solid retro library.
The console runs Android 4.2, an old release of the system, so many current apps may no longer be compatible. On the other hand, its permissive modding policy leaves room for tinkering and customization by enthusiast users.
Ideal for: handheld collectors, fans of classic retro emulation who want a large screen and physical controls, and users who want to hook the console up to a TV via Mini HDMI.
