GamePad Digital GPD Win Max 2 (2024) is a large-screen handheld gaming PC launched in 2024. Powered by Ryzen 7 8840U (8-core, 5.1 GHz), 32GB LPDDR5X RAM and AMD Radeon 780M GPU. Features a 10.1" Touchscreen, IPS LCD display (2560 x 1600, 16:10). 67 Wh battery and WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2. Runs Linux.

The GamePad Digital GPD Win Max 2 (2024) is a clamshell handheld gaming PC that combines a 10.1-inch screen and a full backlit QWERTY keyboard in a magnesium aluminum alloy body. It measures 227 x 160 x 23 mm and weighs 1005 g, so it sits closer to a mini laptop than a pocket console.

At its core is the AMD Ryzen 7 8840U, a Zen 4 processor with 8 cores and 16 threads running from 3.3 to 5.1 GHz. It is paired with AMD Radeon 780M graphics (12 cores, 2.7 GHz) and 32 GB or 64 GB of LPDDR5X at 7500 MT/s, and a fan handles cooling. The x86-64 architecture runs native PC games. For emulation, almost all GameCube, Wii, 3DS and PS2 titles run at full speed, while Wii U and Switch are mostly playable. The supported platform list starts with the Atari 2600 and MS-DOS and extends all the way to PlayStation 3.

The 10.1-inch IPS touchscreen has a 16:10 aspect ratio and 2560 x 1600 resolution (or 1920 x 1200, depending on configuration). It offers 298.9 ppi and 60 Hz, protected by tempered glass. Audio comes from quad surround speakers facing front and sides.

Controls include Hall Effect thumbsticks with L3/R3, a separated PS Vita-style D-pad and four face buttons. You also get L1/R1, analog L2/R2 triggers and two mappable back buttons. The list is rounded out by a gyroscope, rumble, a gamepad/mouse switch, a power button with fingerprint reader, a front camera, a microphone, and dedicated volume and brightness buttons.

The battery is rated at 67 Wh. The top edge carries two USB-C ports, USB-C video out, OcuLink and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. Wireless connectivity covers WiFi 6, Bluetooth 5.2 and optional 4G LTE. Storage is 1 TB or 2 TB NVMe SSD, plus dual microSD slots.

It ships with Windows 11 and supports SteamOS, and modding is permitted, giving full freedom over software and emulators.

Ideal for: players who want a powerful portable gaming PC with a large screen and a real keyboard. It handles PC games and emulation up to the PS2/GameCube generation and beyond.
