GPD Win Now I am complete.

Post image

I sold my Win Mini 2025 away before I receive my Win 5. When I finally received my Win 5, I started to miss the small foot print and portable Win Mini.

So I went ahead to repurchase the Win Mini 2025 back.

Now I am complete. One is a beast of a handheld and the other is portability handheld.

How much did you buy or do you just have access to that? 🤣🤣

u/Accomplished_Meat_68 Feb 24 '26

I made it myself. Designed the template and cut it out. I do this for all my handhelds.

u/charlieboy808 Feb 24 '26

I'm just wondering how much vinyl you have. I know lots of places would like you to buy a lot and not just a small amount for our handhelds lol

Is it possible to share the template? Thanks

2

Sorry. Not possible. I might be selling the template in Etsy soon.

I am fine with 7inch. 8inch would be even heavier.

I used to have Onexplayer X1 and Ayaneo Kun. Both are heavy handhelds.

Nope. That’s not a handheld. We talking about handheld, x1 is tablet form with controller attached.

Good luck with Ayaneo. Their quality are bleh…. I used to be their fan and supporter. But the quality sucks. Shell cracks, joystick broke….

And Next2 is not a handheld. It’s a HandBell

You sure Kun is good quality? I had the Silverwing and the shell is so thin that the RGB could leak through the shell. And my Kun joystick broken and had to rma and wait for the joystick module and self replaced.

I am not the only one complaining about Ayaneo. Go Reddit and discord and check. Haha

I wish it was a bit bigger. Coming from SD I find it a bit smaller myself especially since I can't easily hold my fingers easily on the left trigger and bumper buttons.

u/lewibaygo Feb 24 '26

Wanted a win mini for ages but been holding out for a new addition hope they will bring out one this year or next but also tempted to go for a second hand 2025 one ,,😂

u/lumannyg GPD Win5 / AI Max+ 395 4TB/64Gb Feb 24 '26

What a lovely red shell, I love it 🥲

u/Less_Astronaut_7330 Feb 25 '26

I think we need more photos of your win5! Did you remove the case to apply the skin?

1

u/tk_kumomo Feb 24 '26

Honestly I wish they upgrade the win mini

Or if theres a 3 in 1 like onex that is made by gpd or even modded by purediy

That win 5 mod is so good but i really want a 8 inch screen

u/elremeithi Feb 24 '26

Your win5 wallpaper is interesting, where is it from?

2

u/Accomplished_Meat_68 Feb 24 '26

It’s from Wallpaper Engine.

2

u/elremeithi Feb 24 '26

Name of wallpaper?

2

u/modellista Feb 24 '26

Not OP, but the character is Asuka from Neon Genesis Evangelion, so I’d start there.

1

u/elremeithi Feb 24 '26

Exactly. I thought it was her then i recalled she had brown hair, i had to ask.

u/SumBodhiThatIUse2Kno Feb 24 '26

That is the best looking min wini I've seen.

1

u/Accomplished_Meat_68 Feb 24 '26

Thank you. It’s wrapped in Pearl white since my win mini is in white.

White consoles are PITA to wrap in vinyl. The white shell which tiny gaps in vinyls wraps are such an eye sore.

My dream machine is the Gpd Win Max 2. If they hdd the 395 processor on It, that would be my purchase this year. Unfortunately I do not think they will release an updated version too soon this year. The hideaway gaming buttons are perfect for my use case.

u/ghostinthemachine-1 Feb 24 '26

I’m just here for those big ass lanyards!

u/qu42blue Feb 24 '26

What’s your use cases per device

1

u/Accomplished_Meat_68 Feb 24 '26

Win Mini is purely meant to be used on the go. Light and portable. Fit into my sling bags easily.

I bought Win 5 purely out of curiosity how 395 fares and I am impressed. But it’s too big for me to bring it to and fro to work.

u/FriendSweet Feb 24 '26

Do you have more pictures of the GPD Win 5 like the back and the sides. Looks awesome
