GamePad Digital GPD XD+ is a clamshell gaming handheld launched in 2018. Powered by MTK8176 (6-core, 2.1 GHz), 4GB DDR3 RAM and PowerVR GX6250 GPU. Features a 5" Touchscreen, IPS LCD display (1280 x 720, 16:9). 6000 mAh battery and Bluetooth. Runs Android.
That performance runs SNES FX titles and 3D PS1 games at 60 FPS, while Dreamcast, Saturn and N64 are playable. Most PSP games run fine, though some remain unplayable, and GameCube is mostly beyond its reach. The platform list also covers Neo Geo, MAME, Final Burn Neo, MS-DOS, ScummVM, Nintendo DS and classic computers such as the Commodore 64, Amiga and ZX Spectrum.
The 5-inch IPS touchscreen offers 1280 x 720 resolution, a 16:9 aspect ratio, 60 Hz and roughly 294 ppi, behind a plastic lens. The folding design keeps the screen protected when you carry it around.
For controls, the XD+ provides symmetric dual Hall Effect thumbsticks, a centrally placed cross D-pad, 4 face buttons, L1, R1, L2, R2 shoulders and L3/R3 clicks, plus Back, Home, Menu and Games buttons. Volume has dedicated buttons. There is no rumble. The plastic body measures 155 x 89 x 24 mm and weighs 300 g.
The 6000 mAh battery charges over Micro USB. Connectivity includes WiFi, Bluetooth, Mini HDMI video output for TV play and a 3.5mm headphone jack, while audio comes from top-facing dual stereo speakers. Storage comes in 16 GB / 32 GB / 64 GB variants with microSD support. Sensors include an accelerometer, gravity sensor, light and distance sensors and a microphone.
The operating system is Android 7.0, and modding is permitted, giving you freedom to choose emulators and front-ends.
Ideal for: players who want a foldable Android handheld with solid emulation up to PS1, Dreamcast and N64, HDMI output and Hall Effect sticks in a compact package.
