Today, when handheld computers are abused by mobile games and almost fade out of the market, no one will reflect on the reason why handheld computers are forced out of the market. Although the quality of mobile games continues to rise, in the final analysis, it is the conflict between handheld computers themselves as entertainment terminals and mobile phone hardware. Once, handheld computers wanted to install self-made firmware to play games, read novels and listen to music, Today, mobile terminals can do better. In addition to the belief party that monopolizes the masterpiece, handheld computers are just a pastime for most users on their way to work. Therefore, mobile terminals with multiple use scenarios will be the ultimate form of handheld game platforms.
Today, Xiaobian wants to experience a tablet game machine that is deformable, adaptable, and versatile. Regardless of the hardware configuration and experience, the design of multi scene positioning and combined handle has firmly captured the attention of players. With the help of the PAD tablet that has been introduced into modern user life and entertainment, the concept of professional games has been implanted. And every aspect of the experience was very good.

Press and hold the power key to start the machine. The system of the WINK PAX game tablet uses the in-depth customized ANDROID 5.1 system and the ZERO UI. Because it is positioned on the game tablet, the UI has excellent vertical and horizontal support.
3) Bluetooth handle
The Bluetooth handle adapted to the WINK PAX game panel has more bulges at the lower end than the conventional android. It adopts the double rocker+direction key scheme, and the XYAB four function keys. In fact, it is recommended to use double marks, so that it is more convenient to operate the games of the psp simulator. In addition to the game operation function keys, a power key with LED indicators and four android function keys are also set.
The front end is equipped with L1, L2, R1, R2 function keys to meet the control requirements of all handheld computers and mobile games.

4) Mobile game test
As a game tablet on the ANDROID platform, a rich mobile game is sure to come. The test games are the popular ARPG games on the Android platform, such as "Ju Bao", "Quan Huang 97HD", and "National Miracle", which mainly test the compatibility of the controller and the game and the fluency under the high dynamic screen.
The WINK PAX game tablet can run these games very smoothly. There is no jam in the fighting action, and there is no jam in the National Miracle Plaza because of too many character equipment rendering.
5) Simulator test
Although ANDROID has a lot of game content, it is mostly non series original content. As a post-80s game enthusiast, handheld and arcade games are the battlefields of countless nights in memory. Fortunately, ANDROID platform also supports the once mainstream handheld platform, and the simulator test includes PSP NDS、GBA、 The games on the four arcade platforms are compatible with fluency and image perception. Let's see whether the WINK PAX game tablet can bring users back to their previous craziness.
PSP
Ares: After debugging, Ares is still a little stuck. After all, 3000+domestic flagship models may not be able to run Ares smoothly. In fact, the settings of ppsspp are very particular, including CPU frequency locking. However, due to time, there is no more testing.
Monster Hunter: It can run smoothly after debugging, and there is no jam in the picture and background music. I remember that I used to burn the midnight oil and brush materials, and I used to pick Zulong in class. But now the game is still playing, and I don't know where my buddies in the upper and lower bunks were.
NDS
In fact, it is not difficult to run NDS simulator on Android platform, because NDS games do not rely on hardware configuration, mainly due to the ease of use of the simulator. This evaluation uses a fierce NDS simulator, a variety of dual screen distribution modes, which can map and hide the simulation handle. In the operation of super Mario, Mario racing cars and other auxiliary touch games, the operating experience is very good, If you play the games of Zelda, which are mainly touch operated, you need to configure a capacitive pen to operate more accurately.
GBA
NDS simulator can run smoothly, GBA is even more important. The evaluation uses the MY BOY GBA simulator. Although the GBA picture is relatively rough today, it is actually good under the various rendering optimizations of the simulator, just like the fist HD on the android platform, which is also optimized by the original painting rendering, but it is difficult to find back when playing Pokemon and Golden Sun, The persistence of running around to catch elves.
Arcade
The arcade bears too many memories of the post-80s generation. The game of "Kung Fu Emperor 97", "Three Kingdoms Annals", "Three Kingdoms War Discipline", "Yuehua Swordsman" and other games are masterpieces for players in the era of red and white machines. In fact, their pictures and playability are much higher than those of later GBA handheld computers. Although most of the game themes are 2D horizontal versions of clearance and combat, they are also the game themes that are scarce in modern games, On the ps3 platform, there are few horizontal versions of games that have passed the test. When installing kawaks on the WINK PAX game tablet, you can download arcade ROMs from the app, and you can set combination keys to relive the game of the past!
6) Screen projection test
The WINK PAX game tablet has its own MICRO HDMI to HDMI HD cable. By connecting the tablet to the TV, images can be transmitted to the TV. There is no delay in actual measurement. At this time, the handle is used as an ordinary Bluetooth handle, and the tablet as a game console can enjoy a large screen game experience.
7) Viewing:
ANDROID platform has no shortage of video clients. First, regardless of video clients such as Youku, Tencent and iQiyi, the well-known local player KODI can support more than 90% of high-definition video formats, and support LAN NAS resource sharing. In addition, the ZERO UI of the WINK PAX game tablet has its own video resources, but the update is not as fast as that of mainstream video clients.
It is worth mentioning that the HDMI HD output of WINK PAX can be easily connected to put pictures on the LCD TV, and the flat panel can be used as a set-top box to enjoy watching on a large screen.
8) Summary:
First of all, the concept of Android handheld is not new. Nvidia has its own Android handheld and launched many exclusive masterpieces, but as a crowdfunding product, The first version of WINK PAX game tablet was 999 yuan, which should be said to be very amazing. The structure and shape of the handle base+tablet combination was very cool, and it also created a precedent in the Android handheld market. The mobile phone, tablet, and handheld application scenarios, with a cost performance ratio of 1000 yuan, of course, can calmly pick up the 8-inch tablet to answer the phone.
As a low-cost game tablet, WINK PAX does not reach the flagship configuration, but its performance is enough to run mainstream Android mobile games smoothly, The contents of PSP simulator, NDS simulator, GBA simulator and arcade simulator are rich enough. Although Zhanshen, who claims to play all the functions of PSP, seems a little regretful, games such as Final Fantasy Zero, Monster Hunter, and Gate of Heaven and Earth can still run smoothly.
In addition, the battery capacity of 5600mAh is slightly higher than that of the iPad mini. UHF use can last all day. Low frequency use can last for three or five days. It is fully satisfied that office workers can play games and chase dramas on the way, plus HDMI output, experience large screen game viewing, and perfectly replace low-end game consoles and high-end TV boxes.
