Very interesting device, a handheld W10 computer.

 

cool! I like it

 

As long as it's at the price range of switch then it's a buy for me.

 

Highly doubt it'll be anywhere near the price of a switch cmon man this is AW your talking about.

 

It's going to run on an Intel integrated GPU. I wouldn't get my hopes up too high on this thing.

 

There doesn’t seem to be any AW graphics amp port. Which if true is a huge let down. But honestly I’ll probably get one regardless. I take my switch with daily. And there are a lot of games in my pack log I need to play. So this would be perfect for that. So I’d get a lot of mileage out of it. But if I can’t hook it up to the Graphics amp at home then that defeats the value of a dock for it in my opinion.

 

I didn't even think of that.

They should of added a Graphics Amp port LOL

 

It looks like the demo setup Asus used a couple of years ago - what appeared to be a high speed dedicated dual USB set up - which was a actually a dual PCIE x4 gen 3 external hook up - it was a developer test rig used in the Asus demo.

I would imagine once it's productized either those dual connections will be codified into the production laptop or they will integrate the AW graphics amp port.

 

Right? That would be the perfect device setup. Makes a lot more sense than even with a laptop. I’m hoping they’re still in the prototype stage and will add it to the final product. Regardless it would still be a sell for me just do to it would replace my switch in my backpack everyday.

That’s actually encouraging to hear. I think that would really sell the product for anyone interested in something like this.

 

It’s not in its final form just the concept phase ( very polished looking ) for all we know they can use Tiger Lake or a AMD 4800U if ever released. Who knows maybe even a low power MX350.
Actually a 15W 4800U able to boost to 20W/25W in gaming mode sounds like a good match and would be a cheaper alternative to anything Intel would have to offer.
What I do know is it’s turned some heads and looks good enough to be released tomorrow.
