17 October 2022
It's equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon G3x Gen 1 chipset and comes in a 5G version for streaming PC and console games on the go.

Why would anyone buy this when capable regular phones exist.

    Binko, 17 Oct 2022You can't be dogmatic about declaring one device "... moreThe switch was released in 2017, for years it is was almost the only choice for portable AAA gaming(there is overpriced portable PC like GPD), the steam deck was just released this year and a lot of people tried portable gaming for the first time in 2022, I am PlayStation user but I like the switch for its portability and family friendly gaming.

      Not bad I am impressed 🤩.

        So where do you think this new chipset falls?
        QC G3X g1

        QC 8CX g3: 4-X1, 4-A78
        QC 8g1+: 1-X2, 3-A710, 4-A510
        QC 7C g3: 4-A78, 4-A55

        I'm thinking it will have a high 10W TDP, Active Cooling, TMSC-6nm build, and use the slightly older cores. And it will have a very powerful iGPU, but will have a slightly mixed CPU design. I think the design will be somewhere between these options:
        = 2-A78, 6-A55 (much slower than QC 7C g3)
        = 1-X1, 1-A78, 4-A55 (slightly slower QC 7C g3)
        = 2-X1, 2-A78, 4-A55 (slightly faster QC 7C g3)

          kek, 17 Oct 2022"Gaming" in Android lmao 🤣. What a joke! I laugh at mobile "Gamers" too, it's so funny (and sad at the same time tbh)

            Only expandable storage through slow cards. What a joke! Well, razer clearly doesn't want my money. Amateurs. Gaming is all about speed and performance! So 128gb fast storage is NOT the way to go.!

              Sin, 17 Oct 2022There's just one big catch too this The big got ya ... moreSame can be said to those who buy other handheld? If you buy switch don't you carry it with your phone? Lot of people have multiple phone or Tablet with same os.

              If someone has iPad and iPhone it's normal but it's issue if someone has handheld and phone?

              Handheld like this will compete with mini desktop, TV box like Nvidia shield, Other handheld like Deck and Odin, Mini Tablets etc it has multiple uses and every serious gamer who is interested IN Android gaming will consider it, nothing Come close.

                Please sir bring to india, bgmi at 120 fps possible with these specs, good console. Hope for under 15k india price.

                  Hemedans, 17 Oct 2022Its android device, it will play any android games or emula... moreThere's just one big catch too this
                  The big got ya

                  You're logic don't work so well

                  The person who buys this still has too buy smartphones and carry them around too make phone calls probably a gaming smartphone

                  If you're into android gaming why carry 2 android devices too run android games instead of just one

                  This is poor value for money it's just unnecessary extra

                    this is like the PS5 of Android mobile gaming. it's much more affordable than those big time gaming phones but it's only a console. at the end of the day, a gaming phone can still be a phone but this can thing can only be a console

                      Phones fan, 17 Oct 2022Steam deck and Nintendo switch are much better options.You can't be dogmatic about declaring one device "better" than the others because people have such differing priorities. For example, for me, the Switch is virtually worthless because it is insanely underpowered when playing AAA ported games. But for somebody who primarily plays native Nintendo games that were built for the Switch it will seem wonderful. But I love my Steam deck because it plays what I want to play with ease. It's hard to see where this Razer device will fit in but I'm sure it will be perfect for some people.

                        Call the cat small tiger , to sell it expensive.

                                  crispcketlicker, 17 Oct 2022What is Razer bringing up to the table releasing this? I do... moreIts android device, it will play any android games or emulate any game possible in Android. This device offer insane value, for around $300 you get small tablet with same perfomance as rog phone or Blackshark or those Nubia phones, not only you get flagship perfomance it has other features like sd card support, Active cooling (fan to ensure sustainable perfomance) etc.

                                  If you are mobile gamer and interested in highend device nothing offer more value than this.

                                    Steam deck and Nintendo switch are much better options.

                                      YUKI93, 17 Oct 2022Exactly. Still has no idea what G3x is all about and how it... moreWhat device with sd 8+ gen 1 + $100 controller cost around $400?

                                      Like Steam deck this handheld has more value than any phone at current market.

                                        If they want you to use Xbox Game Pass, you might as well buy a $200 phone with a decent screen and a bluetooth controller for like $70. I don't see the point.
