The most blatant PSP rip-off the world will ever see photo

Ladies and gentlemen, let us introduce the Geda VX690HD, perhaps the most blatantly obvious rip-off in the world. You almost have to congratulate Geda for summoning the kind of stones required to release a system that doesn't even try and look different from the PSP. In fact, I will congratulate them: Well done, Geda, you shameless, shameless bastards.

The VX690HD supports HD and Blu-ray resolutions for MP4 playback, and you can also play GBA, NES, SNES and NeoGeo games on it. It also looks exactly like a bloody PSP! The thing even manages to be wireless enabled, making it one of the higher quality knock-offs we've seen for a while. That said, it could also be made out of paper and sticks, so we don't know exactly how well all this stuff works. 

Make sure you check out the gallery for an amusingly terrible advert for the traversty. I'll be sure to pre-order mine today!

I wonder how long it will take Sony to law-slap these fools?

Yeah it's HD and plays ROMS without having to hack it...sounds pretty awesome.
Someone in the comments of the link Jim posted to PMP said that it can connect with USB devices without a computer...if that's true that's pretty insane....too bad the photo at PMP with the lady holding it shows that either the woman is insanely small or this thing is HUGE

Either it has a touchscreen, or someone thought it'd be a good idea to have water in the screen.

What's the matter? They couldn't find an uglier girl to be in the ad?

To swap or not to swap? That is the question.

@ Noah, haha yes it does look very big indeed, well the fact that that's a really bad editing job doesn't help, good effort whoever made it but it's obviously a joke, what a woman posing next to lake has anything to do with it is beyond me. Oh Jim you make me laugh...

The ad is using a famously fugly woman in china for humor.

Sorry to disappoint, but i think this is just a case of the original source being google translated bad and the satire not exactly being understood in the English translation.

The actual post is a joke and the player is not real, its just poking fun at the pmp industry in china.

Is that the best name they could come up with? VX690HD?

I saw "bloody" in the article and without looking at the author. I figured it was Jim Sterling and when I looked up, I was right.


And what the hell is that green thing?

How in the name of all things holy is a 1080p resolution fit to a handheld device? Someone is full of shit. You can't really notice the difference between 720p and 1080p in a TV less than 40" let alone a handheld device...

Wow, they copied even the button shapes! How long you think until they get sued by Sony? Although I'm a little surprised by the high quality they seem to advertise for the product. Did they copy the same design just so they can ride the PSP bandwagon? Or is the PSP design more comfortable and easy to use?

That hand in the picture probably is in scale with the device.



There's already a bunch of really crappy psp clones though, just look for the POPstation on youtube and you'll find a great review by this guy known as Ashens.

My girlfriend (from China) just confirmed this is a joke. The company's name is a play on another famous Chinese company. The girl in the ad is famous for being ugly. It claims to have a Blu-Ray drive. If you type the name in baidu.com, you'll only get a few results as this is not a real product. Everyone in China already has a PSP anyway. They don't need a fake one.
