Why I’m excited about Logitech’s G Gaming handset
As a Steam gamer and an Xbox Game Pass subscriber, the presence of both of those services' icons on the Logitech’s screen makes me excited – and there are also icons forGooglePlay, GeForce Now, Chrome and YouTube. Given the emphasis on cloud gaming here that means it doesn’t need to be as powerful as a Steam Deck – think mid-range smartphone rather than entire PC crammed into a portable – and it’s interesting to see that it’ll supportAndroidgames as well as the cloud services. Having a Switch-style handheld that happily plays Xbox and Steam games as well as Android ones means this could be lots of fun for all kinds of gamers.
We don’t have any firm details about the handheld’s innards yet, but it might run Qualcomm’s new G3x platform, which was designed specifically for handhelds and has an Adreno GPU for gaming.
The other thing we don’t know is how much it’s going to cost when it launches later this year. Logitech is keeping schtum so far, with just alanding pagewhere you can register your interest. But the more I see of this handheld the more I like it. If the price is right this could be a big hit for those of us who can’t afford a Steam Deck but who want something more flexible than a Switch.
