GamePad Digital GPD G58 is a gaming handheld launched in 2014. Powered by RK3188 (4-core, 1.8 GHz), 1GB RAM and Mali-400 MP4 GPU. Features a 5.0" TFT display (800 x 480, 16:9). 3500 mAh battery and WiFI 3. Runs Android.
When it comes to emulation, the G58 runs PlayStation games at 60 FPS, and most Nintendo 64 titles run at full speed. Sega Dreamcast games are mostly playable but never reach 60 FPS, while 2D PSP titles usually run at full speed and 3D ones struggle. 8-bit and 16-bit systems, arcade via MAME and Final Burn Neo, MS-DOS, ScummVM and PICO-8 are all within reach.
The 5-inch TFT touchscreen has an 800 x 480 resolution, a 16:9 aspect ratio, a density of roughly 187 PPI and a 60 Hz refresh rate, protected by a plastic lens. Touch input comes in handy for Android menus and native games.
Controls include a cross D-pad placed up top, four face buttons, two symmetrically placed slidepads and L1 and R1 shoulder buttons. There are dedicated buttons for volume, power and reset, but there is no rumble. The body is made of plastic, and front and rear cameras plus a microphone round out the package.
The battery is rated at 3500 mAh and charges via Mini USB or a DC power jack. Connectivity covers WiFi 3, USB OTG, Mini HDMI video output for hooking up to a TV and a top-facing 3.5mm headphone jack, while sound comes from rear-facing dual stereo speakers.
The operating system is Android 4.4.4, with 1 GB of internal storage expandable via microSD. Modding is permitted, leaving room for enthusiasts to experiment.
Ideal for: retro handheld collectors and players who want smooth PS1 emulation, HDMI output and a classic Android device with a PS Vita-inspired look.
