Hong Kong-based pocket PC specialist GPD has announced the pricing, and a myriad of new details, for the GPD Duo 13.3-inch dual-OLED screen laptop. The firm today added pricing to its Indiegogo preview page, for a crowdfunding campaign in the not-too-distant future. A top configuration with an AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, plus 64GB of RAM and 2TB SSD is outlined by GPD, costing $1,860, with an estimated shipping date of November 2024.

We first reported on this laptop with dual-OLED panels back in May, and now we have a host of tech specs and promotional pricing to ponder over. Probably the most important news is that the top-end devices are going to be built around AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 processors. We also learned that this mobile APU will be configured at a 60W TDP – an important factor influencing performance.

The upcoming GPD Duo 13.3-inch dual-OLED screen is a larger laptop than what we are typically accustomed to seeing from GPD. But at the same time the dimensions (297 x 209.65 x 23.8mm) are not grotesque and could be easily packed for a commute or traveling.
Thermals will obviously remain incredibly important to the device’s smooth operation. A single SoC with 60W isn’t gaming laptop level power-thirst, but GPD seems to have an extensive cooling apparatus. The firm boasts of its dual-fans and dual-heatpipe system covering the processor and motherboard chipset.

Cheaper model with AMD Ryzen 7 8840U

As mentioned in the intro, we see that GPD will offer a top configuration with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, 64GB of RAM and 2TB of storage for $1,860. A model with the same processor, but 32GB of RAM and 1TB storage is listed at $1,650. Lastly, there’s a significantly cheaper model with an AMD Ryzen 7 8840U processor, 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage listed at $1,270.

GPD is also offering discounts on its GPD G1 eGPU for backers. This eGPU would give these laptops a significant GPU performance boost via an AMD Radeon RX 7600M XT Graphics that connects via OCuLink.

Please remember that crowdfunding a project is not a guarantee of receiving a finished product. Backing a crowdfunded project is akin to an investment; you believe in the project and want it to succeed. You are not purchasing a retail product.
