GPD Unveils Official Pricing for Pocket 4 Mini-Laptops Featuring 12-Core Ryzen AI HX 370, 64GB RAM, 2TB SSD, and a 144Hz 2.5K Display at $1,466

Back in August, GPD took the wraps off their new Pocket 4 mini laptop, marking it as the first handheld device to use AMD’s fresh Strix Point APUs. Recently, GPD Game Consoles revealed the pricing for these nifty gadgets on platform X. The lineup kicks off at $895 for the Ryzen 7 8840U model, powered by AMD’s Zen 4 architecture, and can reach up to $1,466 for the top-tier Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, which boasts 64GB of RAM and a whopping 2TB of storage.

Weighing in at a mere 770 grams, the GPD Pocket 4 mini effortlessly transitions between being a handheld, laptop, or tablet. It comes with a physical keyboard, a touchscreen, and even a touchpad. The latest model taps into AMD’s Zen 4 and Zen 5 architecture, catering to different price levels. While the core specs remain fairly consistent across the board, the variations lie in the APU, RAM, and SSD capacities. Expect the Pocket Mini 4 to flaunt memory speeds reaching 7,500 MT/s, paired with a vibrant 2.5K 8.8-inch display capable of 144 Hz refresh rates and covering 97% of the DCI-P3 color spectrum at 500 nits of brightness. Connectivity? It’s got Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3, all packaged with a 28W TDP.

For those checking the figures, the base variant of the GPD Pocket 4 starts at $895 – or $829 if you jump on the IGG campaign early. This model is equipped with AMD’s Radeon 7 8840U APU, featuring eight Zen 4 cores and the Radeon 780M iGPU, alongside 16GB of RAM and 1TB of storage.

If you’re eyeing the Strix Point iteration, the starting model packs the Ryzen AI 9 HX 365. It comes with 10 Zen 5 cores, a Radeon 880M iGPU, and is bundled with 32GB of RAM and a 2TB SSD, priced at $1,157.

At the pinnacle, you’ll find the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, housing 12 Zen 5 cores and the AMD’s swiftest Radeon 890M iGPU. This flagship configuration maxes out at 64GB of RAM and 2TB of storage, retailing at $1,466 – although there’s also a 4TB version available.

Beyond the main offerings, GPD unveiled some handy add-ons. You can snag an EIA RS-232 module, great for older devices, for just $20. Or, stay connected wherever you are with a 4G LTE module for $125. However, take note, the Pocket 4 doesn’t include an OCuLink port, so if you plan to hook up an eGPU, USB4 is your go-to.

While GPD hasn’t pinned down an exact release date for the Pocket 4, they’re aiming to get these into hands by the end of the year, assuming their crowdfunding campaign hits its stride.

A quick word to the wise—crowdfunding isn’t a retail transaction. It’s more of an investment in a concept you believe in, with the hopes it comes to fruition. Your support is for the idea, not just the end product.
