GPD Pocket 4 ミニノートPC

I never received the device even though the store said it shipped. Now GPD says I have to wait til June 5 for my unit to ship even though they took my money last month.

Very impressed with the 8” laptop and works perfect for my needs working out of a truck and on the go. The keyboard is easy to type with and the small screen actually works better than expected. Was worried an 8.8” screen would be too small. If I can get 5 yrs out of this It will have exceeded my expectations.

Hey guys, the laptop design and look is absolutely phenomenal, the keyboard is the perfect size. My only issue is that there is a lag when opening apps and I am not sure but the power button seems to work only after pressing it a few times.

I want to use it like a phone. So 20 centimeters is too much for me. Would it be possible to make it smaller?

Got my 965/32gb about two weeks ago. This is my favorite computer i have ever owned. So tiny, so fast, so well built. Love using it in tablet mode also. I use it as my work computer on ext monitor/dock during the day, and my carry around laptop during non business hours. Everybody asks about it and is impressed by it. I can't believe how fast and well it runs. I installed a new hard drive and fresh-installed the newest version of Windows - worked like a charm. Installed GPD driver package to get the last few "exclamations" from Device Manager. All good. Fit and finish is quite impressive and I'm loving it more every day! Thanks GPD, for getting me excited about computer hardware again!

Never received my order. DHL told me the package was being held pending payment of customs duty. Instead of paying the duty, the company said it has to be returned, and shipped again. I've made three finance payments at this point, and haven't received anything. I have requested a refund. But the company won't refund my money until they get the package (which i never received) back. Criminal.

After I got one for my hobby, my girl wanted one of her own, and it really packs a punch! It runs any game she can throw at it.

I've got the Pocket 4 dual-booting Windows and Gentoo Linux. It takes a little know-how, but very satisfying once it's done. The GRUB menu is still rotated, and may always be, but everything else is great. KDE Plasma runs super smooth and all packages compile way faster than they did on the Desktop I've been using these last several years.

Great device overall! This little laptop is a utilitarian gamer/dev's dream. The chassis is solid aluminum and makes it way a LOT for its size, but considering how feature-rich and sturdy the whole thing feels it's definitely warranted.

Aside from that, I do have some minor gripes. The chassis, buttons, AND screen are all grease magnets. It's the most ideal size for an in-field carry, but hopefully your adventures take you into AC or else you'll have fingerprints all over the cover in seconds. If you have naturally oily hands, then good luck. After mild keyboard use over a week (I often hook it up to an external setup when gaming), I already have the plastic on my space bar that shiny, worn-in, sheen black, along with other common keys like shift. I think it'd be great to put a case or a wrap on it, if you can manage.

Another annoyance is the screen and body's seal. The smooth and slippery metal makes it really tough to get a good grip to open the lid. There's a minor indent, but it's too small to use unless you're using your nail. Issue is, the border for the screen is incredibly small and as far as I've seen, there's no screen protector other than the temporary plastic to protect it in shipping. I elected to keep it and peel off the white "Remove" tab to protect the screen, but the material doesn't seem like it'll hold up over time.

Final problem, which bugs me the most, is the crashes. I admittedly haven't done much troubleshooting (Only had it for a week), but the laptop will suddenly hang and restart if I do things in an "unpredicted(?)" order, like flipping through a menu while it's actively resizing, or changing too many graphics settings at once, or even just unplugging it while a game is running. I'm sure it's a solvable issue, and I genuinely can't tell if it's something I'd done when first using it or if it was something that's wrong with the hardware.

Other than those gripes, the whole thing is a really good package! I got the lowest spec model and I can run pretty much anything excluding modern AAA games. Plenty of flexibility and good build quality!

Does everything I need from gaming to web browsing, best thing I’ve bought in years
