GPD’s latest innovation, the Duo, is poised to hit the market in just two weeks. This cutting-edge device, announced earlier this year, promises to push the boundaries of what we consider a laptop, and now we finally have a release date. Initially scheduled for an August release, the company remained tight-lipped about the reasons behind the delay. But the wait is over, as GPD has confirmed that the dual OLED-based Duo will officially launch on October 8.
GPD’s release plan involves rolling out the Duo through Indiegogo, where it will be available starting at 02:00 UTC. However, given the chosen platform, the device is unlikely to ship until late autumn or early winter. Alongside the official release date, GPD has unveiled a new memory configuration for the Duo, providing more versatile options for consumers.
Previously, opting for a 32 GB RAM configuration required pairing it with the Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 APU. This is no longer the case. Customers can now configure the Duo with a Ryzen 7 8840U, 32 GB of RAM, and a 1 TB SSD for $1,380 on Indiegogo. This new option is only $100 more than the entry-level SKU, making it an enticing upgrade for those seeking more power without a significant price increase.
Here is the complete pricing breakdown:
– AMD Ryzen 7 8840U, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD: $1,270 early bird ($1,425 MSRP)
– AMD Ryzen 7 8840U, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD: $1,380 early bird ($1,516 MSRP)
– AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, 32 GB RAM, 1 TB SSD: $1,650 early bird ($1,790 MSRP)
– AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, 64 GB RAM, 2 TB SSD: $1,860 early bird ($1,971 MSRP)
With its sleek design and powerful specs, the GPD Duo is set to make a significant splash in the tech world. Whether you’re a tech enthusiast or someone looking for a versatile and powerful laptop, the upcoming GPD Duo offers something exciting for everyone. People interested in snagging this innovative device should keep an eye on Indiegogo come October 8.
