Title: Dell Alienware UFO is a Nintendo Switch running Windows 10
Post by: Redaktion on January 06, 2020, 23:06:20
The Alienware prototype, codenamed "UFO", is a portable 8-inch FHD tablet with detachable controllers designed to play PC games locally while on the go. If you ever wanted a Switch but with PC games instead of Nintendo games, then this concept might tickle your fancy.

Some form of Ryzen 4000 would make sense in here. Maybe they could persuade AMD to do a custom bin for them, with only 4 of the CPU cores enabled but a full suite of GPU cores and LPDDR4X. That ought to make for solid low-end gaming performance at a TDP they can still cool within that form-factor.

No one cares about bezels!
Keep that phone dead-horse-beating away from this thing - or better yet, stop crying about bezels there too!

I bought a GPD Win 2 because I fell in love with the form factor of the Switch but wanted a device like it to play obscure indie games from Itch and little Bitsy experiments.

This device is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Good on Dell for their experimentation here! I hope they can figure out how to make a well-executed and reasonably-priced version of this. If they can, I could see myself selling my GPD Win 2 and Switch to get it.
