Android game consoles

An unusual portable gaming console from Razer based on Android, which combines the functionality of a mini-tablet with the Razer Kishi gaming controller. Razer Edge supports both standard Android applications and games available in the Google Play service, as well as popular cloud solutions GeForce Now and Xbox Cloud Gaming. Local game streaming via Steam Link is also available if the user has a gaming PC. In terms of its characteristics and positioning, it is not so much a competitor to Steam Deck, Switch and ROG Ally, but rather an analogue of another popular gaming repeater Logitech G Cloud, which also runs on Android and is aimed primarily at cloud gaming. Razer Edge is equipped with a 6.8-inch display with a resolution of 2400x1080 pixels and a refresh rate of 144 Hz. The screen supports touch control, providing convenient interaction with the interface and applications. The Qualcomm Snapdragon G3x Gen 1 mobile processor is responsible for performance, the RAM is 6 GB, and for storing games there is a built-in drive with a capacity of 128 GB, which can be supplemented with a microSD memory card if desired. The console supports connection via Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) and Bluetooth 5.2, providing a stable connection when streaming games from the cloud. USB C and mini-Jack 3.5 mm connectors are provided for connecting peripheral devices and headphones. Detachable controllers are attached to the console using USB C. At the same time, the device weighs 400 grams, being one of the lightest in its class.

Logitech's unusual portable console, which, unlike the Steam Deck, Nintendo Switch, and Asus ROG Ally, does not boast high performance and is focused exclusively on cloud gaming. It runs Windows, is based on the 8-core Snapdragon 720G chipset, and comes with Nvidia GeForce Now and Xbox Cloud Gaming services pre-installed, providing access to both of the most popular streaming platforms (note: using cloud gaming requires a subscription that is purchased separately from the device). In addition to cloud gaming, the console supports remote play of games from a PC or Xbox and PlayStation game consoles, allowing you to use the device as a repeater or a second screen. The Logitech G Cloud is equipped with a 7-inch display with a resolution of 1080p and a refresh rate of 60 Hz. The built-in 6000 mAh battery provides up to 12 hours of battery life. The Logitech G Cloud features a gyroscope for motion control and haptic vibration. Additionally, you can customize the buttons to suit your preferences, expanding your control options and allowing you to better adapt to your gaming habits. The console weighs 460 grams, making it slightly larger than the Nintendo Switch but significantly smaller than the Steam Deck. For external connections, the device has a USB C port, a 3.5 mm headphone jack, and a wireless receiver with support for Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) and Bluetooth 5.1 with support for Qualcomm aptXTM Adaptive.
