GPD Pocket 2 is a portable laptop with a diagonal of 7 inches

The modern person does not have to stay in one place for a long time. Frequent trips on business trips, to work, study, business meetings practically leave us no free time. Businessmen should be aware of current events, keep their hands on the pulse of major business trends and absolutely necessary. No matter how great your smartphone may be, yet touch-typing is never on par with the physical keyboard. Of course, you can buy an external keyboard to your tablet, as well as a stand and a mouse. But it won't be as comfortable as a compact laptop. Today we head to Shenzhen (China), where GPD HK is already known to us. It introduced its small GPD Pocket 2 laptop running Windows 10 Home, with a stylish 7 inch 8GB screen. RAM and 128 GB of internal memory, with the possibility of its further expansion with the help of SD cards up to 1 TB.

Features of the novelty

Modern laptops have little in common with models that were released some 10 years ago. They have an elegant design, a huge variety of colors, not to mention outstanding settings. However, there is one small nuance in all laptops without exception - they are all quite voluminous and take up quite a lot of space. If you have personal transportation and you don't have to travel much, then there are no problems. But if you are constantly traveling, you just live aboard an aircraft, constantly moving, then you are looking for a compact version of the device that could replace a full-fledged laptop without taking up much space.

Chinese company GPD believes that for modern man portability is not empty sound, so he constantly develops new and new models of netbooks, laptops and game consoles, which are easily placed in a handbag or pocket of jeans. Earlier, we talked about one such GPD P2 Max ultrabook, which has a screen diagonal of only 8.9 inches, supports 10-point touch typing, except for the physical QWERTY keyboard, which has a 16:10 aspect ratio, 178 ° viewing angles and a powerful 9200 mAh battery, which is enough to run continuously for 8 hours (you can read more about it here).

Today's novelty has a much more modest size - its diagonal screen was 7 inches with a resolution of 1920 * 1200 pixels. The pixel density is 323 ppi, which, according to the manufacturer, can match the brightness of Apple's advanced Retina displays. Viewing angles of the novelty are 178 ° both diagonally and vertically. The manufacturer uses In-Cell full laminating technology to make the model thin and light. The frame around the monitor is only 4 mm, allowing you to enjoy almost endless viewing. The novelty also supports touch control. For protection, the screen is covered with glass Gorilla Glass 4 generation.

The keyboard has an ergonomic design that directly affects its functionality. Its keys are wide enough to provide high-precision text input, eliminating common mistakes. It covers almost all the space of the bottom of the laptop. The novelty is the Intel Core m3-8100Y processor, built on a 14nm process. It is quite energy efficient, allowing you to increase the autonomy of the device, which is 6 to 10 hours depending on the intensity of use. The maximum clock speed of the processor was 3.4 GHz. The device is equipped with an integrated Intel UHD Graphics 915 graphics card with a maximum dynamic frequency of 900 MHz. With parallel processing of graphics, the novelty ensures the smoothness of the video without "sagging".

Perhaps the main pride of the manufacturer is the active cooling system used in the model. It allows you to maintain peak processor performance without fear of overheating during active operation. Sound in the novelty is muted with a single keystroke for comfortable use. For those who don't seem to have the built-in memory of 128 GB, it can be expanded by connecting external drives via USB Type A connectors by installing a Micro SD or Micro SDXC memory card. The amount of RAM was 8 GB, which allows the laptop to function in multitasking.

New supports fast charging based on PD 2.0. At the same time, it can be recharged in about half an hour. By the way, the device is charged using a USB port connected to the 5V / 2A adapter. The capacity of the built-in lithium polymer battery was 6800 mAh. The size of the laptop was 181 * 113 * 14 mm (length * width * height) and weight - 510 g. The material of the case is a strong magnesium alloy used in the production of bicycles. A standard 3.5mm mini-jack connector is provided for connecting the headphones to the laptop. In addition, the device has a microphone, a built-in audio chip and paired speakers to play audio.
