Say hello to the JXD S5100. It’s a handheld system made by Chinese company Jin Xing. It features an ARM A9, 512mb of rom space, a Power VR GPU, a 5 inch 800×480 resolution screen, 4GB of flash memory, HDMI support, and an Android 2.3.4 OS.

Interestingly, the JXD S5100 is apparently being marketed as a device that can compete with the 3DS XL. But as you can see, it’s more comparable to a GamePad – at least in terms of looks – than the Wii U controller.
