In a partnership with Intel, Tencent Games has launched the Sunday Dragon 3D One. They are calling it the "world's first" handheld gaming device that does not require glasses. This device is said to be experimental, and Tencent aims to investigate the possibilities of "naked-eye 3D" tech in gaming.
Powerful Components
Inside, the Sunday Dragon 3D One is equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V, a high-performance APU from the Lunar Lake series, which will also be used in the MSI Claw 8 AI+. It comes with 32 GB of LPDDR5X RAM and a storage capacity of 1 TB. Similar to the Lenovo Legion Go (currently priced at $499 on Amazon), it features detachable controllers.
Unique Display Features
What distinguishes this Tencent Games handheld is its display. According to the company, the Sunday Dragon 3D One includes an 11-inch screen with a real-time eye-tracking sensor. Combined with an "image interlacing algorithm," this 120 Hz display can provide "naked-eye 3D visual effects."
Tencent has already optimized several PC games for this 3D technology, including Path of Exile, Blade & Soul, and Arena Breakout: Infinite. However, it remains uncertain if other games can deliver a true glasses-free 3D experience without developer support.
Previous Innovations
This isn’t the first device to offer a glasses-free 3D display. For instance, Nubia has its Pad 3D series, which features a similar technology. When they launched their second-generation tablet, Nubia mentioned an AI-based neural network algorithm capable of transforming any 2D content into 3D. It's likely that Tencent Games has developed something akin to this for their new gaming handheld.
