Terrans Force Handle 5 is a portable gaming computer with a 7-inch screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels, 120 Hz refresh rate, brightness up to 450 nits and an excellent AMD Ryzen 7 7840U processor with 8 Zen processor cores. 4 and 12 RDNA 3 graphics cores.

On paper, it works very similar to all other similar devices, including the ASUS ROG Ally console, which we are currently testing in the editorial office. However, in this case it is a relatively unknown company, so we wonder how long the manufacturer will provide support. At the same time, the console is more expensive than the Steam Deck, ROG Ally and Lenovo Legion consoles, so it is not exactly the best buy from this point of view.

But it is undoubtedly stronger than all the mentioned competitors. The first impressions when reading the specifications are excellent, but as with other portable consoles, they are spoiled by the battery, which can only last a good hour under heavy load. ČIf you were only playing less demanding 2D games, you could get two or even three hours of gameplay, but then there is no point in having such powerful hardware. 

Other features include support for 100W fast charging, fingerprint reader with Windows Hello login support, two USB-C ports (40 Gb/s), microSD card reader, stereo speakers front, 6-axis motion sensors and support for WiFi 6E and Bluetooth 5.

The Terrans Force Handle 5 is available at the MiniXPC store, where you can buy the entry-level model with 16GB of LPDD5-6400 memory and a 1TB PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD for US$1000, or pay US$100 more. for the #141 version with 32 GB of RAM and 1 TB of storage space.
