I didn't notice the flickering, could you give a timestamp?
GPD WIN 2
- Thread starter vcoleiro1
- Start date
The flickering is common to almost all the affordable screen, isn't it ? I only see the flickering when I record with my phone or when I plays a movie on which one I recorded a computer screen.

You do know that if you threaten not to support either the Win2 or the Pyra then both projects are doomed, yes? Please, please for the love of all that is good, consider the other pre-orderers!

As soon as the device boots.

Well, it's not easy to find a proper PWM for that, sadly, we've looked as well.
It only flickers when you lower the brightness a lot though (at least on the Pyra), normal brightness levels don't have any issues, but lowering it to be darker than the darkest Pandora setting will flicker.
EDIT: Ooookay, just watched the video, and the flickering there is REALLY bad when Windows has started.
Chances are this is the shutter of the camera though!

Still fresh, damnit!
I think he's american, so his lights would probably be at 60Hz. But mplayer reported to me that video was playing back at 30fps on this hardware, and I saw seven or eight flickering bands across the screen, suggesting the backlight frequency is some moderate multiple of 30. The eye doesn't have a frame rate like that, so there's no chance of setting up a standing wave like that - it's like the old wagon wheels you could see on TV that would sometimes appear to freeze or even go backwards, but you'd never see that in real life.
Good to hear the dpad is good. I'm not convinced that I want a 70degree CPU though, that does sound rather toasty to me, especially for an expensive part like that.

Apparently the battery is lasting for 5 hours of gameplay

About 5 hours battery life when playing Final Fantasy XIII using higher settings. More for lesser games
Also, that is on an early prototype

I think we need to see some serious 3D Games onto the Pyra soon, to compete with that beast here. GPD Win 2 already shows so much even it's not out yet.

Hmmm... the way this is going it is going to seriously cut into Pyra sales.

Most of the people I know about that want a Pyra want it for things the GPD Win 2 cannot do.
Plus anyone forward thinking. Pyra is modular, GPD Win 2 is not. I will buy a Pyra with the expectation of not needing to buy another entire handheld computer again in a few years. Also I don't Windows.

Consider me impressed. I was planning to wait out on the Pyra and let the Win be but after seeing this I might have to free up some funds to get me a Win2 too. I just hope the Pyra will be out before this....
