Razer Edge Specs
Razer wanted to design its new Razer Edge as a kind of complement to take your game everywhere, betting on the new cloud gaming technology, with partners as important as Microsoft and its Xbox Cloud Gaming, which will be native to the operation of the system Razer Edge. However, the curious thing about the design is that it is not like the Steam Deck, since the controls are basically a Razer Kishi V2 Pro, and as such we can use it on any device Android.

This is the second portable device after the announcement of the Logitech G Cloud, dedicated to cloud gaming, without being able to play powerful PC games like the aforementioned Steam Deck, relying entirely on its wireless versatility and third-party services to play games. Perhaps the price it launches at, $399, is still somewhat unpopular, since an Android phone could also match its features, at a similar price.
We will have to see how its new Snapdragon G3X Gen 1 processor performs, expressly prepared for these tasks. In the coming weeks we will have new information. At the very least, it looks like the bigger brands are starting to embrace cloud gaming, and that’s an interesting sign for the future.
