now thats something that can run apex over 30 fps at 720p
Yep

And the more lame the segue, the more he enjoys it.

Let's be honest, we all need more of that late 90s/early 00s colored translucent plastic in our lives. You may have had a gameboy color, but only the coolest kids had the translucent purple one.
Not gonna lie man, I would flip a shit if my laptop were transparent. Or at least partially so. Way cooler
I wanted one of those so bad back in the day.
Just, not. Dated as hell. Only worth it as nostalgia fuel. Translucent N64 is rad as hell, but that's it.
Loved that translucent purple GBC I had one I think I still do somewhere
I had such a gameboy once.
It was green and it became "gold" yellowish at night.
It's been over a decade and I cannot find it anymore :(
This is one of those things that will end up on LGR Oddware in 10-15 years.
3-7 years
It reminds me of the first PC's. In 5 years it's gonna look ridiculous and caveman like.

Congratulations you're a proffet
I'm all in if this costs under $1.5K and actually ships.
Btw, A's got to be the coolest Uncle ever.
In my country it's supposed to be at 900$ so I guess it might be cheaper at us and china
I believe in the US its around $6-700
Costs $895 on the Indiegogo.
I backed at around the $750 dollar range, but that was the second it went live
It does
I legitimately look forward to linus' segues to the sponsors
I just backed the aya neo cant wait to play with it! Will have a review on my channel when it comes in the mail.

@@o0julek0o They're too strong for you!
For the keyboard can be easily fixed by splitting it in the middle and have both keyboard on the left and right side of the screen so that you can type better.
They got one thing right for sure:
They didn't try to reinvent the button layout and just gave it the good ol' Xbox layout that will be easy to use.
"wifi problems and lagspikes while online" Yep thats just like the switch
Are you speaking for the OG switch or Lite?
@@fox_prower The og switch has a pretty bad antenna
@@fox_prower All switches have crap wifi and internet capabilities, regular, re release and lite. All bad as far as that goes. And if you disagree about that, well youre objectively wrong.

That part at 4:49 is like those commercials in the 2000’s where the person can’t even do the simplest tasks.
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of their over exaggerated weird faces too tbh.
@@haniffaris8917 Yeah, especially if they have to deliberately tangle them on a keyboard and mice cables to make their point; I'd prefer if linus just does a thing and tells us what annoys him.

and clawing the controller too
YOU JUST GOT COCONUT MALLED!!!
@@joelrolo1915 yup
Ah, yes, the bike *bullshit.*
Seeing that claw grip on the D-pad and analogue stick took me back to my Monster Hunter Freedom Unite days, when the only way to control your character and the camera at the same time on PSP was with that exact grip style. I still get finger cramps just imagining it.
Yeah.. whats up with that ;p never seen anything like that
Man I remember doing that same thing lol. I’d be out hunting for a while and my hand would cramp but I never minded it 😂
Good old MHFU times 😂👍🏻
Oh boy, those memories! Thank you, now i want to take my PSP and grind MHFU
I always loved the claw grip. Worked far better than any attempt to use both controls on the 3DS or switch.
All was sailing smoothly in the handheld market until steam deck nation attacked
I like the linos wallpaper.
Honestly for a gaming handheld i couldnt care less about typing experience
As long as it can be used to type my username and password, it's good enough.
Ya but what about a PC handheld.
@cdurkinz Sony did that before with the Vaio UX series. You can see one on 007's Quantum of Solace movie.
Unless you're playing Typing Of The Dead
As long as it has Bluetooth and/or USB, it is easy enough to connect a keyboard.

My browser: 404, link not found.
lmao but why?
we ddos'd the site lmao
I remember wanting a "Colour screen Handheld PC + Digital Camera" back in 1997 when i got my first ever PC game, Tomb Raider (1996) good ol' run from DOS game. The Eidos Premier Collection edition of Tomb Raider had a sticker for a competition to win this Handheld PC. Maybe do a comparison if you ever find one lol.
That "up to 140 minutes of gaming" reminds me of the Sega Game Gear back in the day where you would have half a dozen AA batteries and they would last for around an hour or two (compared to the Game Boy that seemed to last forever on 4 AA batteries).
My boy ETA prime been putting out this content.
Yeah, they practically stole his title too. :(
And he did it weeks ago.
ETA is pumping quality content like christian rabbits multiplying
Pretty sure he already did like last month I think

Now the Americans are just copying China.

Man, it's called poisoning from alcohol
For once, the captioning is actually decent, not completely mangling all the technical terms. Good job LMG, hope it keeps up! Many people are dependant on accessibility options to enjoy your content!
Yea it's like Donut Media, mixed (and sometimes nonexistent) quality captioning.
Especially non English people who have difficulties to catch up with his talking speed
I hope they make the clear one standard I love clear stuff.
FUCK YEAH FINALLY BEING ABLE TO PLAY YAKUZA IN HANDHELD FOR THE FIRST TIME 😭
ye dude
damn did u buy it?
i REALLY want to see these mainstream, hopefully soon. fingers crossed!
I remember seeing this on ETA prime I think, it’s pretty awesome!
I always wondered why there wasn't a handheld with the Ryzen mobile chips, I just bought a Dell with a 4500u in February, been blown away with it's capability. Xcom 2, battlefield 3, batman Arkham origins, basically anything before 2015 is going to run totally fine, and plenty of modern titles too. eSports titles work well unsurprisingly, just delighted with it, and it sips power and status quiet.
1280x800 is a great resolution for the Vega 6 as well, good choices all around. Can't wait to see more of these popping up.
@ 02:45 >>> Yeah, you definitely wouldn't know about those Raptors, they are VERY stealthy when they attack after all ;)
Nintendo literally just needs to make a Switch Pro with half the performance of this and it's leagues ahead of the og switch
So they just need to stop underclocking the Tegra to do that...
Well they are in the works on it but sadly they are keeping tight lipped about it. However, the good news is with intels new Iris Xe Graphics Nintendo DOES need to make the switch pro and they need to do it very soon otherwise the PC community will take over the handheld gaming market. A lot of people don't realize just how huge intels new Iris Xe Graphics is. It is literally a graphics card built into a CPU that runs at an extremely low wattage. GPD WIN 3 is just the beginning, sooner or later a few years down the line, we are going to find handheld PCs not only to be extremely popular but we are also going to find them to be extremely cheap as well. It wont beat a switch lite of course but it definitely will contend with the switch pro without a doubt in my mind. Ill bet 2-3 years down the line, a 500 dollar portable PC that can play most AAA titles will become a new norm.
There is a reason why Linus is showing you guys something that isn't even done yet, they also realize that handheld PC's are going to probably become hugely popular very soon. They legitimately care about their viewers and that's why they are trying to poke at yall to get on top of this.
@@Heathensauce nintendo is probably just banking on the same old selling method they have for 20years. Keep remaking and selling the same exclusive game's because everyone will still buy it, because its the only place to get it. Or they are just going to come out with some new wacky way to play like the wii u.
@@dudeguyman77 doubtful on the new wacky way because nintendo actually badly flopped on the Wii u. They even stated officially that handheld consoles are now their main focus. You do have a good point on the exclusive games and it's partially why consoles are still alive but it isn't a huge selling point because not many people are willing to spend 200 just so they can buy a 60 dollar game. Very few are that emphatical about it. I think halo was a prime example actually before they released it on pc and they microsoft actually released it on pc because it was financially better for them. I'm a halo fan, a HUGE halo fan but I still refused to buy a console just to play something I grew up on. I became a pc lover and my love for halo quickly died when I found it wasn't on pc. And trust me. I am one of those who would spend 1000 just to play halo the entire series but ultimately I just found better things to spend my money on. Halo wound up feeling hallow. That's why these console exclusives are no longer like halo because it winds up being too costly to make and people really aren't pulled in on the "exclusive game" concept to make a huge series anymore.
@@Heathensauce ya I agree people are starting to not be held down to much on the exclusive stuff. Like with xbox and pc you can just about get everything on pc now, and playstation is slowly putting stuff on pc too. But nintendo has such a strangle hold on their ip there is no work around to get what they make anywhere else. Which is keeping them afloat but they also love to just ignore the gaming community which is why I was saying they might do something wacky like the wii u with the switch.
Thanks for doing this one guys; excited to see where it goes.
The price is also way lower than I expected for a device with these specs, very impressive!
would you be able to use it with a keyboard and mouse?
@@legendarygaming2862 tbh you can buy a laptop too xD, but I want the aya neo too
@@legendarygaming2862 yes, think of it as literally just a pc/laptop in the shape of a switch
I was waiting for this video!!! I'm torn deciding between backing the Aya Neo or the GPD Win 3
The answer is simple: Steam Deck
I’ve been loving handheld systems like this more and more, can’t wait to see their improvements
Linus: "That's right, it's a full-blown gaming PC"
Screen: Shows blown Linus face meme
Steam Deck: this video does not age well
How good is the d-pad? This is crucial for fighting games IMO, could run Tekken 7 on the go with this IF the d-pad feels solid.
Man, I panicked when I saw the review pop up, since I pre-ordered mine 2 days ago. Glad you agree that it's awesome though after a hands on, can't wait for mine!
I hope these become even more popular, I'd like to see more similar stuff in the future.
If they become more popular maybe they'll become cheaper. I'd love a GDP but for 800+ that's a lot
@@rhysjones8506 This. For 400€ (VAT included), I might consider one of these.
Alienware and Lenovo should seriously consider UFO and Lavie mini now
@@nayyarrashid4661, I have been waiting for the alienware ufo for forever now lol. Maybe the problem is that intel and amd cpus are not good for small mobile devices cause they are not using arm. If the problem could be that integrated graphics aren't powerful enough.
Just bought a PSP 3004 again after 8 years when I bricked mine. Love it :)
Time traveller?
As of the fancy name, AMD makes custom SoC blocks with infinity fabric linking various chipsets into their APUs.
The new models of the XBox and Playstation that you can't find anywhere both have such chips.
Many of these chips support features that haven't been released in laptops due to lack of demand from OEMs, like side-channel GDDR type memory or even the capability to exclusively use GDDR type memory instead of DDR4 or LPDDR4.
Finally, I can take my OSU addiction anywhere I go!
I was surprised when I saw that
4:08
out of all places to see something related to osu
never expected to see an osu comment on LTT lol
I can finally fc 3* maps with this bad boy
Interesting, Good Old Gamer channel actually mentioned this “handheld computer” in a recent video
And so did ETA PRIME 5 days ago as of posting.
I would use it to play PC games released between 1994 and 2010, there is thousand of them still enjoyable that you don't even need latest pc games, not to mention emulation of the 90s and early 2000s consoles. you can use professional software made for single-core and dual-core CPUs (it's always good to store your ten years old software and apps -not the trial versions).
4:07 mans playing osu! on joysticks lel
I love that the sponsor transitions have been so smoothe as of late
Yeh but I don’t know about, you but I pay to remove ads on YT and funny as he makes them it still pisses me off that I pay and still have to watch ads. Doesn’t it you?
the w10 screen keyboard actually have a mode that split the keyboard in 2, closer to the side of the screen
Yeah, this is exactly what that is perfect for. Missed opportunity.
and there is already an official script to replace the Win7 keyboard on the physical button with the touch keyboard, and they are looking into just having it ship stock with the touch keyboard on that button anyways so that's also something worth pointing out
Backed the project with a 1tb black option. Can't wait for it to show up!
Don't you think there is a potential to change that stock ssd to WD SN850?
The SSD is removable. There is at least on video online where I saw someone replacing it for a 2tb.
I would use that amazing thing for some Emulation stuff, that would be awsome!
An "easy" way to fix the audio is active EQ like samsung has, you only need a few tiny microphones around the unit, and maybe pair up with Dobly Atmos.
ETA Prime covered this like 3 weeks ago I believe
Yep Linus is pretty late to the party, not to mention he did not cover all the features
And he reviewed it very well🔥
Taki Udon actually did an interview with Uncle A in his youtube channel just a couple of days ago, it's pretty interesting
I want something like this for an emulation system, I do hope they try to figure out changing the rear buttons to proper analog triggers.

Vallheim on this will be amazing!
Locking to 30 FPS with medium settings and it should run alright. But valheim in general needs a lot of optimization before it comes out of early access.
Edit: a guy tested the game on 4500U, it gets 30 FPS at 720p lowest settings lol.
I don't really think so, it already runs poorly with a Ryzen 5 1600 AF and a GTX 960. And since it doesn't really look that much worse, I play at 720p just to get those extra fps.

FIx wifi and switch to analog triggers for sure. Better speakers? Would be a bonus.
I'm getting dangerously close to considering one of these little hand held devices. Maybe in a few years.
I hope AMD pays attention to this segment. A future small 7/5nm APU with Zen 3 and RDNA2 with DDR5 would be absolute killer on this market.
