Recently, we reported on the GPD Win Max 2 (2024) becoming available in the Philippines, offering gamers a compact yet powerful gaming experience. The GPD Win Max 2 is a hybrid device—a compact 10.1-inch mini laptop with gaming controllers integrated above the keyboard, allowing for a handheld gaming experience. Antec has officially introduced the Core Micro, its latest handheld gaming console. The device is a rebranded version of the AYANEO Pocket Micro, designed for portable gaming and emulation with solid specifications and compact dimensions. Microsoft has started rolling out a new “Xbox mode” for Windows 11 PCs, bringing a console-like gaming experience to laptops, desktops, and handheld devices. The Xbox mode for PC gaming establishes an immersive experience through its full-screen interface, which works with controllers while focusing on gaming content without any background interruptions. The system enables players to rapidly find and start games while they can toggle between desktop and gaming modes, and they can use a single library that contains both Xbox Game Pass and their installed PC games. According to Microsoft, the feature provides its greatest benefits to users of gaming laptops and handheld PCs because these devices need instant access to their functions, which should remain easy to use.
