If it is your first Windows handheld experience then the MAX 2 Intel is a good option, but do consider waiting for the  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiegogo.com\/projects\/gpd-win-max-2-handheld-gaming-pc-4g-lte-amd-6800u#\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">GPD WIN MAX 2 <\/a>AMD model which had a successful Indiegogo campaign, as this will have higher performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And also do take into account that it&#8217;s not just a gaming handheld, It has a great keyboard that I used to type out the notes for this review. It can very easily replace your laptop and after a hard day&#8217;s work, simply transform into a gaming handheld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sadly the GPD WIN MAX 2 Intel model has been cancelled in favour of the AMD 6800U model.
