Powkiddy X18 - Shadow Hunter - Lost World gameplay!

Powkiddy X18 Handheld Games Console 2-Player Video Game Machine 5.5-Inch WiFi

Hey guys,

Check it out!

The Powkiddy X18 with just the CPU MTK 8163 is good for your normal Android task. Like social media, watching youtube, checking emails, and even some school or office work. But, when it comes to gaming, forget about PUBG, Call of Duty mobile, and Asphalt 9 Legends.

You can actually play Asphalt 9 Legends and even Gear.Club racing game but the graphics are greatly diminished. Some games like Shadow Fighting 3 plays well but in-between game, they load a little slow. Even Bubble Witch will freeze once in a while.

That's why as much as I like the Powkiddy X18 if you're looking for something more powerful and at least able to play PUBG or COD mobile, then get the GPD XD Plus. It'll cost a little more but if you can't live without playing those kinds of games, it's worth the investment.

If you don't really care for the graphics-intensive games, then, of course, the Powkiddy X18 is more than enough. They also cost less. There are many other good games in the Google play store like Shadow Hunter - Lost World. Check out my video gameplay here.

The good news is, as I've stated in my last post is that my favorite Zombie shooter FPS games from Madfinger plays well on the X18. Any 'old' shooter games like Dead Effect 2, Shadowgun, and N.O.V.A are great with the integrated controller. You can even remap the buttons to your playing style.

The integrated controller and the remap button software which is included for free is what makes this Android portable game console work. Well, some games are best played with the touchscreen, and sometimes, I don't really mind. Might be a little awkward with the folding form factor.

What I like about the Powkiddy X18 or the GPD XD Plus is that they're more than just for gaming. Android games or retro games. Because it uses Android O.S. 7.0 (I wish it was the latest version) you can use it as an android phone or laptop.

I even set it up so I can use Whatsapp on the X18. I can send messages, voice messages, and even Wifi calling. I discovered that you can link your webcam to an Android device. I tried it out with my old webcam, it didn't work. So, I bought a new one, hoping this time, it'll work.

Hopefully, in the latest Powkiddy X18, they'll add a webcam to it so that people can do video calls. Nowadays, everyone prefers to video call. Even my mom likes to video call. They definitely need to do a 4G or 5G version. Maybe with the latest CPU and GPU?

Of course, if you want to add all that, it might be a little more pricey. That's probably why they chose the MediaTek (main website) processor. The price is also part of the reason why I got it in the first place. For now, it's more than good enough.

I kept forgetting to mention this but you can also link via mini HDMI cable to your monitor or Tv. So you can game on the big screen or work on a bigger monitor screen. Pretty nifty. For simple work and school tasks, I've always said Android is good enough. All this on a cheap portable gaming console!
