IDK what is going on with that PCB.
There are 2x2280, 1x2242, 1x2230 (wifi) on one side, and another 2280 on the CPU side.
There is a USB-C? on the side, and some sort of card reader on the opposite end.
It has 2x LAN ports, never seen that on a handheld before.

Visual estimation of the PCB is 210~225mm wide (not including tabs/wings), and 110~120mm tall, which would put it into an screen size territory of 8.8" to 9.04".

Geez, that thing is already a brick with just the board and cooling, where are they going to put the battery?

Full-size one right below may be a thing.

The good thing is playing on this handheld is both Esports and real sports at the same time!

It has got to be a development PCB. Dual LAN and a barrel connector on a handheld? I don't think so.

Yeah everything I've seen indicates the screen is bigger than the GPD so I'd say minimum 8" for production.

Even if so, dual LAN per se may be quite interesting thing for handhelds as you potentially can daisychain arbitrary number of friends and play. Compared to adhoc wifi this will have no severe latency issues.
