GamePad Digital GPD XD is a clamshell gaming handheld launched in 2015. Powered by RK3288 (4-core, 1.8 GHz), 2GB DDR3 RAM and Mali-T764 GPU. Features a 5" IPS display (1280x720, 16:9). 6000 mAh battery and 802.11 b/g/n, 4.0. Runs Android 4.4.
The 5-inch IPS touchscreen has a 1280x720 resolution, a 16:9 aspect ratio, roughly 294 ppi and a 60 Hz refresh rate. The image is sharp for retro systems, and the clamshell form factor protects the panel, which sits behind a plastic lens, whenever the device is closed.
For controls, the GPD XD offers a centrally placed cross D-pad, dual Hall effect thumbsticks in an upper outer position, four face buttons and four shoulder buttons: L1, R1, L2 and R2. There are also L3 and R3, plus dedicated Home, Back, Menu and Games buttons. The plastic body measures 155 x 89 x 24 mm and weighs 300 g. The console includes an accelerometer, gravity, light and proximity sensors and a microphone, but it has no rumble. The hinge is considered a weak point of the design.
The 6000 mAh battery delivers 6 to 8 hours of use, and charging is handled over Micro-USB. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, Mini-HDMI video output, a 3.5 mm headphone jack and a microSD slot. Storage variants come in 16, 32 or 64 GB, and audio is handled by dual top-facing stereo speakers.
The operating system is Android 4.4.4, which gives access to a wide range of emulators and apps compatible with that version. Modding is permitted, so enthusiasts are free to experiment with the software.
Ideal for: retro collectors and enthusiasts looking for a compact Android clamshell with an HD screen, full controls and solid emulation up to PlayStation and SNES.
