Personally I see the Win MAX the most similar to what a Pyra should be, just MORE powerful and a little bigger.
THAT!!
Exactly what I was thinking.
Except that the Pyra keyboard is so much better and it has some more QoL features.
Especially for me who needs a GERMAN Keyboard the Pyra is better.
Recently I typed some pages of my Bachelor Thesis on the Prototype.
The Keyboard is amazing!
The Pyra needs more Power in my opinion.
But that might come at some day if ED does not do the mistake and goes with a A53 SoC for a successor.
GPD Win Max is closer to the Pandora as it came out as the Pyra is to me now.
The Pandora was the most powerful handheld device I had.
It could emulate systems I could never imagine I could play in a handheld.
That's not true for the Pyra any more.
But the Win Max with the power to emulate WiiU, play PC titles and its the option to use an external GPU this feels what the Pandora once felt to me.
Unfortunately it lacks so many things I value about the Pyra:
2 SD slots, 4G modem, good Keyboard for thumb typing, reliability and longevity.
But it's the perfect gaming console for sure!
