GPD Pocket 3 – Handheld PC with KVM and RS-232

I had a GPD XD that bricked a chunk of it's own circuitry, all of the screen became fuzzy and distorted. All because I cold-reset it while it was on power. I did nothing else to it to make this happen. Amazon accepted the refund, and I look at GPD devices with distrust-by-default now.

I would visit this site if only it existed.

I think that would be a legitimately useful sub-site of HN. “Review: <device name>“ with a menu link filter on the main site like Jobs does.

I think so too, but then I think about review spam, spoofed listings, and all kinds of other misaligned incentives that reviews attract. I think if it were as good as HN is on average, it would be an interesting subsite, but the mods and the users create something special on HN scale. I’m just not sure a HN review site would get the love it needs to be better than mediocre.

All that said, I’d still read it for the comments.
