After announcing the GPD XP Plus back in early April 2022, GPD has finally opened pre-orders for the GPD XP Plus, the company’s Steam Deck competitor running on the Android operating system, in both the Chinese market (via JD.com) and the global market (via Indiegogo). 

Let’s start with pricing and availability. The GPD XP Plus will be available for sale in 4 purchase options in China and their pricing is as follows:

• 6GB + 128GB：1999 RMB (299 USD)
• 6GB + 256GB：2199 RMB (329 USD)
• 6GB + 128GB + Protective Case：2049 RMB (307 USD)
• 6GB + 256GB + Protective Case：2249 RMB (337 USD)

Meanwhile, for global buyers, you can purchase directly from GPD’s Indiegogo listing. The listing includes two purchase options and their prices (shipping included) are:

• 6GB + 128GB：2660 HKD (339 USD)
• 6GB + 256GB：2936 HKD (375 USD)

For those who are not familiar with GPD, the company is a Shenzhen-based startup in the gaming handheld market. The brand broke out into the market in 2020 and it is most known for its best-sellers such as its GPD Win 3, and GPD XP, which received positive reception among both Western and Asian audiences, as well as tech and gaming enthusiast crowds too. 

The GPD XP Plus is the successor to the original GPD XP launched back in November 2021. For the essentials, the GPD XP Plus features a 6.81-inch HD screen on the front, dual stereo speakers, and a large 7000mAh battery.

The GPD XP Plus features a more powerful flagship MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chip under the hood, compared to the MediaTek Helio G95 found on the original GPD XP. The new Dimensity 1200 SoC features MediaTek’s HyperEngine 3.0 software technology which GPD claims enhances the gaming performance to 2.5 times more than the Qualcomm flagship Snapdragon 845 chipset. 

Besides the upgraded processor, the GPD XP Plus now also features faster memory as well with 6GB of LPDDR4X 4266Mbps RAM and equipped with 128GB/256GB of UFS 3.1 storage, which promises more than 3 times the read and write speeds of UFS 2.1 on the previous generation. 

Another upgrade of the gaming handheld is its USB-C port which is slated to feature HDMI DisplayPort 1.2 and faster charging as the company plans to include a 65W charger in the package.

GPD is a Shenzhen-based startup in the gaming handheld market. The brand broke out into the market in 2020 and it is most known for its best-sellers such as its GPD Win 3, and GPD XP, which received positive reception among both Western and Asian audiences, as well as tech and gaming enthusiast crowds too. 

Well in 2022, GPD Is looking to continue its Android gaming handheld, the GPD XP series, with a new member added to the family, the GPD XP Plus.

Looks-wise, the GPD XP Plus looks identical to its cheaper sibling, the GPD XP launched back in November 2021 with its dark grey aluminium chassis. It even features the same 6.81-inch HD screen on the front, dual stereo speakers, as well as the same 7000mAh battery too. So what has been upgraded to justify the extra charge on the GPD XP Plus?

Well, the GPD XP Plus features a more powerful flagship MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chip under the hood, compared to the MediaTek Helio G95 found on yesteryear’s model. The SoC is said to provide a better gaming experience as it comes in an octa-core configuration, 4 Cortex A78 high-performance cores + 4×A55 efficient cores, powered by ARM’s Mali-G77 MC9 GPU and with speedy 4266Mbps LPDDR4x memory. In addition, the Dimensity 1200 features the MediaTek HyperEngine 3.0 which enhances the gaming performance to 2.5 times more than the flagship Snapdragon 845 chip.

With the upgraded processor, the GPD XP Plus now also features faster memory as well with 6GB of LPDDR4X 4266Mbps RAM and equipped with 128GB of UFS 3.1 storage, which promises more than 3 times the read and write speeds of UFS 2.1 on the previous generation. 

Another upgrade of the gaming handheld is its USB-C port which is slated to feature HDMI DisplayPort 1.2 and faster charging as the company plans to include a 65W charger in the package. 

The last highlight of the device is its modular gaming controllers. The device includes 3 controllers in the package which are respectively a FPS Controller Module, a MOBA Controller Module and an Xbox Controller Module. 

Each module has magnetic connectors which are the points that allow the modules to be connected with the main handheld and they need not be charged as they charge wirelessly via the magnetic contacts. GPD assures that users need not worry about the controller modules suddenly falling off as the strength of the magnets ensures that it requires more than 1.1kg tensile force to pull them apart.

The GPD XP Plus is expected to ship in May 2022, and it is planned to open pre-orders soon on May 1st 2022 via Indiegogo.

A HUAWEI device with model number NOH-AN50 has appeared with the Kirin 9000L on Geekbench. Named Mate 40E Pro 5G, its benchmark scores indicate that it performs very similarly to the Dimensity 1200.

The single-core scores average around 900 while the multi-core scores average around 2,800, which puts it in the upper mid-range bracket by 2022 standards (via Huawei Central).

The Kirin 9000L is actually a slightly toned-down version of the original Kirin 9000 and 9000E chipsets, with a slightly lower peak clock speed of 2.86GHz, compared to the 3.13GHz frequency of the other two. Its GPU is slightly less powerful too with the Mali-G78 being an 18 core unit as opposed to the 24 and 22 cores on the Kirin 9000 and Kirin 9000E, respectively.

The chip’s configuration includes 1x Cortex-A77 at 2.86GHz + 2x Cortex-A77 at 2.54GHz + 3x Cortex-A55 at 2.05GHz.

The Huawei Mate 40E Pro 5G already went on sale in China last month for 6,700 Yuan (around $1,062) for the 8GB RAM and 256GB internal storage variant. It features a 6.76-inch OLED FHD+ display, a triple camera setup at the rear, and a 4,400mAh battery with support for 66W super-fast charging.

When choosing a high-end camera flagship in the Android market as of 2021, your options are normally the Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra, Vivo X70 Pro Plus, Oppo Find X3 Pro or the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra. Besides their outstanding camera performance, another similarity they have is that all the camera phones mentioned above are using Qualcomm Snapdragon flagship chipsets, namely the flagship Snapdragon 888.

But Qualcomm is not the only manufacturer supplying flagship chipsets, MediaTek also has a series of flagship chipsets under its belt, namely the MediaTek Dimensity 1100, Dimensity 1200, and the recently announced Dimensity 9000 coming to smartphones next year. Since that is the case, then why do suppliers prefer to put Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets compared to the MediaTek counterpart?

In a press meeting today, Vivo Senior Product Manager, Mr. Han Boxiao, mentioned that from his experience in the industry, smartphones equipped with MediaTek chipsets actually do not take worse photos than smartphones equipped with Snapdragon chipsets. He mentions that the days of MediaTek being a worse performer than Qualcomm in terms of ISP processing and camera lens support have long been over, ever since the release of the MediaTek Helio P70 in 2018.

For reference, Vivo used the MediaTek Helio P70 in the standard model of the Vivo S1, the debut smartphone for Vivo’s new S series which would then be known as Vivo’s upper mid-range smartphone lineup with a focus on design and camera. 

Mr Han Boxiao also mentions that the reason why the myth that MediaTek smartphones don’t perform as well as compared to the Snapdragon counterparts in the camera department, is the lack of research and development from phone manufacturers themselves on their MediaTek smartphones. He notes that he found many MediaTek phones not being equipped even with the most important and fundamental factor of great smartphone photography — smartphone lenses equipped with OIS. The OIS not only enables better video stabilization, but it also provides better low-light photos, as better stabilisation helps to capture more colours in the scene within a shorter exposure time.

From the statements said by Mr. Han Boxiao, it can be deduced that if smartphone manufacturers are willing to pour in better camera hardware, as well as better research and development for its MediaTek smartphones, MediaTek phones may even outshine flagships equipped with Snapdragon chipsets.

This comes right after Vivo was confirmed to be one of the first phone manufacturers to use the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 in its next flagship smartphone. To refresh your memory, the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 is equipped with a fifth-generation six-core APU for AI processing. The 18-bit ISP can shoot 4K HDR videos with three cameras simultaneously. Devices powered with the Dimensity 9000 can support a massive 320-megapixel camera.

It will sport an ultra-slim design and a curved edge display. In addition, its display will feature a wider notch with dual selfie cameras. The back panel of the device has a 64-megapixel triple camera unit. The design of the V23 series appears to be inspired by the Vivo S12 and S12 Pro handsets that were announced earlier this week in China.

Reports have revealed that the Vivo V23 5G with model number V2130 have been approved by certification platforms such as India’s BIS and Malaysia’s SIRIM. Reports suggest that the V23 5G will be similar to the Vivo V23e 5G, but it will pack better cameras and a chipset.

The Vivo V23 Pro appears to be a tweaked version of the Vivo S12 Pro, which came with specs like a 6.44-inch AMOLED 90Hz display, Dimensity 1200 chipset, up to 12 GB of LPDDR4x RAM, up to 256 GB of UFS 3.1 storage, 50-megapixel (primary) + 8-megapixel (ultrawide) dual selfie cameras, 108-megapixel (main) + 8-megapixel (ultrawide) + 2-megapixel (macro) triple rear cameras, a 4,300mAh battery with 44W fast charging, and an in-screen fingerprint scanner. It appears that the V23 Pro will have a 64-megapixel primary camera instead of the 108-megapixel snapper. Also, it will be equipped with a color changing back.

The documentation of the design patent, which was released last week includes several product images, which suggests that it could be a Reno series handset. Lets Go Digital, which was first to spot the patent listing claimed that the below-shown design may belong to the upcoming Reno7 Pro handset.

The alleged design patent of the Reno7 Pro shows that it has a punch-hole display with rounded corners and super-slim bezels. Its right edge has a power key, and the volume up/down buttons are available on the left side. Its top edge has a microphone, whereas the bottom side features a SIM card slot, a USB-C port, and a speaker grille.

Located at the upper-left corner of the phone’s back are three vertically aligned cameras, followed by what appears to be a quad-LED flash unit. A fourth camera seems to be present on the right side of the topmost camera. The publication claimed that the Chinese manufacturer also submitted an alternative front design without a punch-hole camera. This indicates that other design could be hinting at the presence of an under-display camera.

The rumor mill is yet to spill concrete information on the specs of the Reno7 Pro. It is speculated to feature the Dimensity 1200 chipset and a Sony IMX766 50-megapixel primary camera. The Reno7 series, which reportedly includes Reno7 and Reno7 Pro+ is expected to launch in November in China. The Pro+ variant is speculated to come with the Snapdragon 888 SoC.

The Reno7 5G could be coming with a 6.5-inch OLED FHD+ 90Hz display, Dimensity 920, LPDDR4x RAM, UFS 3.1 storage, and a 4,500mah battery with 65W fast charging. For photography, it may feature a 32-megapixel front camera and a 50-megapixel (Sony IMX766 lens) triple camera unit.
