AMD Strix Halo Gaming Handheld Lacks Internal Battery – Requires External Power Source

Sure, here’s the rewritten article:

So, GPD just dropped a sneak peek of their Win 5. Yeah, another handheld gaming PC. This one packs the AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395, which sounds like a sci-fi serial number, right? Anyway, there wasn’t much to see yet, but thank goodness the YouTube channel PhawxTV, run by The Phawx, spilled the beans on hardware specs. Oh, and it’s got this whopping 80Wh external, and yes, removable battery. Imagine that! Sticking it to the trend of everything having built-in batteries, so yay swap ‘em out like the good old days. Easier repairs too — simply grab a new battery when the old one’s done playing nice. Handy, eh?

And this battery deal? Apparently, it’s backpack-friendly, which is… kinda neat. Or you can use it like a power bank. Seriously, whatever floats your boat. Just put it on your desk and tether it to the console if lugging around weight isn’t on your agenda during epic gaming marathons.

Did I mention how you can grab it with the AMD Ryzen AI Max 385 too? A bit less muscle on that chip, but hey, if you’re just the average gamer, it’s probably fine. Pick your poison.

Memory’s there for the taking — from 32GB up to 128GB. Reasonable, right? And the storage choices hit from 1TB to 4TB. Only one NVMe slot, but let’s not be greedy.

The spec rundown isn’t a snore-fest, I swear. Instead, imagine a jumble of tech stuff: like, RGB buttons, haptic motors, and all that jazz. Wish I could tell you more breezy stuff, but this reads like a James Bond gadget manual. So, yeah…there it is.

Speaking of screens, if you were fretting about the old 6-inch display… don’t. They’ve bumped it up to a 7-inch one with a snazzy 120 Hz refresh rate. Quite a sight, really. Add some Corning Gorilla Glass 6 to the mix, which feels a bit like flaunting your grandpa’s cool belt buckle. Kind of outdated but, you know, it works. Just don’t shove it in your bag without a case!

Can’t wait until they reveal this at ChinaJoy 2025, happening on August 1. Fingers crossed it’s not priced like a spaceship. Until then, let’s dream.
