GamePad Digital GPD 5005 is a horizontal gaming handheld. Powered by the Rockchip RK3288 with 2 GB RAM. Features a 5" IPS display at 1280 x 720. Runs Android 4.4.
Inside sits a Rockchip RK3288 with four Cortex-A17 cores at 1.4 GHz, paired with a Mali-T764 GPU at 600 MHz and 2 GB of DDR3 RAM. It is a modest setup by today's standards, best suited to classic retro emulation through Android apps and lighter Android games.
The 5-inch IPS display runs at 1280 x 720, which delivers a sharp picture at this size. For big-screen sessions, the Mini HDMI port lets you connect the console to a TV or monitor.
On the controls side, the GPD 5005 offers dual analog sticks and four shoulder buttons (L1, R1, L2, R2), a complete layout that suits both retro games and gamepad-friendly Android titles.
The battery is rated at 6000 mAh, while charging and data transfer are handled over Micro USB. The console also includes a 3.5mm audio jack, WiFi 4 and Bluetooth 4.0. The 32 GB of internal storage can be expanded with a microSD card of up to 128 GB, handy for large game libraries.
The console runs Android 4.4, an old release that may limit compatibility with recent apps. On the plus side, modding is permitted, opening the door to customisation for enthusiasts.
Ideal for: collectors and retro hardware fans looking for a horizontal Android handheld with dual sticks, HDMI output and room to tinker, who accept the limits of an older platform.
