      Yeah, I think most people have a perfectly good gaming device in their pocket or their desk drawer, that just needs "joycons".
      Props to you for making your own solution. Therefore you are original, you are saving money, and you're not contributing more e-waste than "average John Doe"
      Those 3 wins are a lot better than shelling out extra dough for a specialized device that ties you down with a proprietary kerfuffle dongle knickknack buying adventure.
      You didn't feel the need to get a shiny new shiny device that will one day disappoint you or be outdated for its single purpose use case.
      For example: I paid $45 for a rechargeable gummy bear waterslide adventure theme park, yet I eventually eat the gummy bears, so they can't enjoy their water park in groups, which is the most fun way to enjoy an outdoor entertainment center.
      And really, I would have been just as happy with the $30 non-electric hand-cranked version of the water park, because electrocuting gummy bears in water doesn't work. They are nonconductive.
      Very likely you who are reading this have made a similar food theme park playset product purchase that you regret in hindsight.
      This issue has haunted me for as far back as I can remember. I was one of the suckers who bought sea monkeys (sea monkeys were marketed by a white supremacist. That is why the ads suddenly stopped appearing in the back of comic books. The comic book companies found out sea monkey peddler was a klansman). There were sea monkey accessories as well, which of course, I bought before I got the monkeys (mistake #2). There was a "water race" where you had some underwater pipes in a circle shape, and a 'pump trigger button' that forced air into the pipe, propelling the hapless monkeys around the circle, so that you could race the monkeys, and place bets upon which microscopic bribe shrimp would win. To facilitate the identification process, you could dye the shrimps with food coloring, but you had to race them quickly, because the dye was somehow eventually fatal.
      I wasted all my money on a sea monkey "horse" racing numbers racket that didn't make me any money, and actually cost me some friends, due to the idea being so ahead of its time that people assumed I was crazy.
      Now sea monkey race bookies make thousands of dollars a month, but some other asshole gets the credit for the invention.
      Follow your dreams. You can reach your goals, I'm living proof. BEEFCAKE! BEEFCAKE!

    Suggestion: similar to size demonstration relative to other handhelds, can you come up with a way to create a system of demonstrating audio testing between devices by “side-by-side” demonstrations versus other devices? Once you record footage with each device, it can become reusable “stock” footage for future comparisons, of course, and while comparisons will always be subject to the various challenges in accurately presenting audio as it would be in “real life,” a standardized system pitting the devices against one another would at least provide valuable insights as to how each might perform. Just a suggestion, of course, love your work, as always!

    Even though I don't think I'd buy this handheld do to the "unknowns" you mentioned, I am very glad they made it. the manufacturer is showcasing what is possible and that main producers of handhelds need to take note, because the consumers aren't going to accept them taking the "cripple hammer" to they're current offerings. Like giant bezels around small screens and non-hall effect thumb stick doomed to drift.

      Steam Deck and the Ally crossed that line, for sure. Part of what makes a handheld so niche is it's pocketability and lack of heavy weight, allowing for more comfort and transportability. Yes, you can throw them in their dedicated "bag", but it means nothing if it takes up more space in a backpack, and you can't even pocket the thing.

    I know what this needs - a kickstand and removable folio keyboard like a microsoft surface. Protects the screen, that screen size is legitimately usable as a laptop, and then kickstand for a controller or pop off the keyboard for handheld mode.
    That's actually a very competitive early bird price. But for $800 at launch for a base model..... nah. If it had the folio keyboard i described, maybe though

    • @nope-z5y
      @nope-z5y ปีที่แล้ว

      That would bring the price up over a grand. Might as well just get a Surface and a wireless controller. That way you'll also have a full PC that can play any retro game you want as well as some lightweight modern ones.

    • @colinmartin9797
      @colinmartin9797 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@nope-z5y I agree but think there would still be a somewhat compelling use case. I'd genuinely consider it because I often have to bring my Lenovo 2 in 1 with me (basically a surface pro) and then also bring a gaming handheld because i don't always find myself in a position where I can set it up and use a controller.
      It's could basically a wingpd laptop but more specific for gaming, which I think has a merit, but it'd kinda combine my steam deck and laptop into one, which personally, has merit.
      And it might not even balloon the price that much. Adding a kickstand is fairly trivial to the shell, and all you need for a keyboard is to just pop some magnets and a pogo pin on that big flat bottom edge
      I know we're just hypothesizing, but I can see a use case where I would use this over something like a gpd laptop where I'm holding the whole ass keyboard, and then use it to take notes.
      But man, imagine if it also had the grips be removable like a switch or the pimax portal or Lenovo legion, AND the folio type cover. I would genuinely pay $1500-1700 for that.

  • @AdmiralBison

    This is basically a 'Surface Go' made for gaming. Potential to double as a tablet (no kickstand though)
    It only seems big to many consoles gamers because for decades they have gotten use to small 'Gameboy' sized handhelds. People forget these are PCs and something like this in the PC world isn't that large.
    We already have a 10" screen "handheld" PC for some time now in the GPD Win Max series, though it is a clamshell/laptop form factor.
    Other than that, I'm making the plunge to get this and trick it out with an 8TB SSD.
    - Good ergonomics can help balance and mitigate weight
    - A bigger chasis allows for better thermals, larger batteries and more features like dedicated GPUs, as purported by the upcoming Aya Neo Next II.
    A docking station or kickstand (which I don't know why they didn't have one for it) + KB/M one also has a portable desktop PC.

    thanks for the nice review and feedback. Short travel triggers are good FPS or action/adventure games, but yeah driving games or Planet of Lana could be a pain, thanks for the update on the controller ergonomics (ally isn't ergo for me nor is it exactly like an xbox controller MS or 3rd party), glad theres more grip to these, is the right stick left of the x button or underneath it like on the ally (ally is off set at least 5mm to the right compared to an xbox controller right stick), its also missing back buttons but USB port means controller with back buttons, ETA prime had a working unit, so anyone check that out. . Worried about QC issues as well. I think the price is worth it for the 7840U 32GB RAM 7500mt/s and 2T, the ROG Ally smaller screen, no HAll effect sticks, smaller battery, 2230 vs 2280 in this device, only 1 port, 16gb of slower RAM and 512gb SSD which an upgrade to 1TB is at least 90-110$ (so $810 and more if you want more RAM or hall sticks and 90 degree 2280 adapter, hall sticks and RAM mods are a pain to do and done by some one with know-how, but 16gb of is more than enough). Yeah they could've reduced the price from our POV to be more competitive, but based on what's on the market Ally and SD and then anything from GPD, Ayaneo, oneX, etc it is. The only price and HW competitive device coming out soon with all these devices is the Legion Go. That being said the screen being not as vibrant, which hopefully is do your unit being defective or not being able to adjust settings, is disappointing but expected given the 220+ ppi 10.1 inch sceen. But i think if you're getting into windows handhelds the 7640U might be good enough, as some reviews show 10-20% FPS difference between these 2, depending on what you're doing with it, and you can upgrade the SSD and 16GB RAM is good enough. Pricing between the 2 is fair given more expensive chip, more RAM and SSD. You must have really liked this device that right stick looked dirty AF from use. One more note, as far weight goes, A swtich user before SD, "I'm not using that its too heavy and big." switch user after SD use and muscles getting stronger, " this thing totally replaced my switch and i can play all my Steam games." After using heavier or larger device ppl get used to it and stronger and it will be an afterthought. Larger screen will alot of games more enjoyable, whether 10 inches or 8.4/8 inches is better idk, but it will better than 6-7 inches

    The consideration about the grip ergonomics is interesting. The more I watched this video, the more I thought TJD should just make a tablet PC (Personally I’d want an 8” or 7” display) and bundle it with a TJD controller. I don’t like holding up my (much lighter!) 9.7” or 11” iPads for long, so I think a tablet with a built-in kickstand or case with a stand function also makes sense for a gaming tablet.
    I’m sure the TJD engineers are crestfallen that the engineering sample broke in shipping, with realistically no more chances to get a sample in the hands of a reviewer before the crowdfunding campaign is over. Further, I would have the concern that a consumer unit could also be damaged in shipping, or even if the retail packaging is really good I wonder how robust the device itself is. I don’t expect most handhelds this weight to survive a 3 foot drop… but as Russ said, he doesn’t even have a large enough case for it, so it might get rattled around, pressed, and strained as it is placed in the large compartment of a backpack, or more likely it might get knocked off a sofa or chair at some point.

    Yeah. Concerning the weight, they should have given it a tabletop mode with detachable controllers and a big stand like the Lenovo legion go. I really hope something this big comes out where it's just a tablet. $600 and 1tb sound absolutely amazing. I'm considering just buying this over the legion go just because of the size and the price and the storage space.
    Also, if you bought a Nintendo Switch you know how frustrating it is to play ported games on it where the UI or the gameplay itself is not made for a tiny screen. So bigger screens seem to make more sense.

      Well the Kun has trackpads, style and Aya Neo at least have a rep for their build quality. The Legion Go is definitely a bigger threat to the Kun, than this. Since Aya Neo misstepped in the Kun's dpad, this could have beat it that way, rather than just price, but this dpad looks as bad or worse.

    I have a gaming laptop so when you said at the end, you can take a laptop instead I was a little bit confused. Because this really seems like a tablet, it doesn't have a touchscreen? It was not mentioned at all. In that case one could use it also as a tablet and a good android tablet doesn't cost so much less than that. But if it doesn't have touchscreen then yeah I don't see the point in having it

    Well, I do have reading glasses, and use them for portable gaming, so the large screen is tempting but, I get by fine with my SteamDeck.

I still love what the deck does... so not sold on moving on yet....

    A 14" laptop plus a wireless controller I would say it's a better option and a more compact one. I have a Thinkpad T14 Gen3 AMD with a Ryzen 7 6850u (up to 25w), 16 gb of Ram, bought it used for 750Euro, still in warranty for 2 more years, 1200p IPS 400nits display. Great laptop, great for portability, long battery life, 4g LTE, that's what I mainly use for PC gaming on the go. I also have a Switch Lite and a modded PSP. I realy have to learn more about the emulators on windows.

    The steam deck kinda popularized a bigger screen and very ergonomic controls with okay portability. And this Device seems like there were a lot of good ideas here, especially with the ultra ergonomic controls. But then it's kinda breaching into the "maybe I should just get a laptop instead" territory. The screen size is just too much. Just 2 inches less and it'd be a little more practical. Hopefully you get a better unit later to test a little more.
    Great review!

    Nice ergonomics and the dpad looks better than the one on the Kun for some reason, pity you can't test them.
    Screen looks kind of bad though, tried adjusting the color temperature in radeon utility? Looks too cool here if it's not your camera capture issue.
    Would be interesting to see a total power draw test/comparison with the Kun and other devices.
    Larger battery size don't necessarily equate to the proportional increase in battery life if the total power draw at the same TDP is higher than competition.

    • @CreativityNull
      @CreativityNull ปีที่แล้ว +3

      There will be some extra power draw from the screen but not that much compared to the Ally. It has about the same resolution, so the only significant extra power draw is going to be from the extra LED backlights due to the screen size. Shouldn't be enough to completely offset the larger battery though, so it should still have more life than the Ally.

    • @samh5886
      @samh5886 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@CreativityNull there are other stuff in play like the efficiency of the different electrical components on the boards etc, the screen is not the only factor.
      And a larger screen size not necessarily uses more power than a smaller one (at least a slightly smaller one) as well, so it would be interesting to see tests for these handhelds.

    • @CreativityNull
      @CreativityNull ปีที่แล้ว

      @samh5886 you're right, it does depend on the panel, but overall the technology of the Ally screen is about the same as this screen on basic specs (IPS screens, Ally is 1080p 16x9 and this is 1200p 16x10.) However, I completely forgot that the Ally has a 120hz refresh rate, so the Ally's screen might be sucking up more juice than the T101's 60hz if you're running it in 120hz mode.
      As far as "efficiency of other electronic parts" motherboard components and other electronic components to make the main components work are going to be miniscule in difference, and most likely insignificant. So, we're probably going to be looking at the main components, which will follow standards for design, including power efficiency, and overall the devices have very similar major power sucking components. The only things the t101 has that "might" suck up more power depending on how much you use is the RAM. It has much more of it and it's running at a much higher frequency. Otherwise the OS is the same and the CPUs are similar enough (to the Z1 extreme) that there shouldn't be a significant difference in drain at the same wattages, nor a significant difference in performance. Maybe if the CPU governors are different (which is very possible) there might be more significant differences in power draw, but the hardware itself isn't going to play a huge role in that.
      The only real unknown for power draw between the two is the wifi cards. Those can also be significant differences, but I don't really know which ones they're using. However, I don't think this will make enough of a difference to make a 60WH battery perform the same or worse than a 40WH battery.
      Ultimately, it may just come down to software the two companies put in to optimize power use, but that can always be worked around by a motivated tinkerer. In pure hardware potential, I think the T101 wins in battery life.
