Perfect for emulating, No issues, long battery life, excellent crisp screen. Get it, save money.
Update 11/20/24: Enter Winlator. Yes open source Windows emulator for Android. Again side load it, and then play actual PC games from the GOG (Good Old Games) store and now PC games on the go. Classic games work well, like RTSs and city builders and you can get some 3D games to work well on it too. Perfect for us low budget / right budget people wanting to game on the go. There are lists out there floating around of what 3D games work, so search around or ask on Reddit.Update 5/28/24: Switch emulation is hit or miss. Emu needs 8 GB of video ram to work correctly, and this device is detected as having 5.1gb. I can get wee tiny Roms to load and play, but forget the real deal stuff. However, Dolphin Emu works and looks amazing. Also the device charges slightly quicker but not by much without the controller attached.Original Review:At the going price of 250.00, and then add a 1TB U3 MicroSD card (not included, but costs 60ish bucks here) you can't beat this little bugger. I even purchased a case here for 20, and then screen protector (3 included) that is tempered scratch resistant glass for 8 bucks.I can't speak on the cloud stuff, because I could care less, but as far as emulation, this is a holy grail handheld.Boot up is quick, and after the updates everything is working flawless for me with no issues. All the release date kinks have all been fixed.It will emulate everything that RetroArch / Lemuroid states, which in my case I am using Lemuroid (Ad free, no purchase needed on Android app store). Lemuroid, is simple, clean and perfect and detects all the roms, and controls and you'll be gaming for say possibly 10 hours straight if your emulating classics and using low to normal lighting. Classics up to N64 / PS1 era and a few handhelds that came after.Now current consoles and handhelds like the 3DS PS2, and another that was taken down can also be emulated at like 4k, and they look unbelievable. However, the fan will kick on and the little beast will go into overtime, so you'll get about 5 hours of game time, instead of say 10. Reduce back to 1x rendering and you'll get about 7 hours.Download all your stuff from the Android app store, including your video subscription stuff and you'll be set. Citra, PS2 and Switch emus have to be sideloaded, which is pretty simple.Does videos and that lasts a long time too.Cannot do USB-C extras, like HDMI out, USB-C audio cable out, or an external drive with the controller attached. Controller attached you can only do power pass through. If doing the tablet straight, then yes to all the latter. Daughter and I connect to the TV via HDMI out and two bluetooth controllers and we are console gaming!Does not come with an AC adapter or lens cloth, which I found odd, but does have USB C to USB cable included.Man I used to commute from NYC to Woodbridge and back, and where was this handheld back then? It would have helped kill so much time. Worst part was missing the express and getting on the local.Worth every penny. Don't waste your money like I did on a bunch of retro handhelds from unknown makes that either work subpar, or have subpar controls and screens. Some can't even access the Android store. Some the battery or something else dies like a few months later. For the price of 250.00 it is a done deal and with Razer's reputation, you can't go wrong. Now get yourself one.

Well Done Razer!
First impressions, very nice. One main reason I chose this over other gaming devices like the Odin, is the fact it has removable controllers, so it can be used like an ordinary Android tablet without the extra bulk.The razer edge has a decent build, people have complained about the screen bezels being slightly large, but I don’t have a problem with it. I believe the larger bezels help with accidentally touching the edge of screen while gaming.As expected, having an oled screen it looks great, the higher than normal refresh rate is really good also.I will note, the fan is moderately loud after a bit of gaming, but not too loud it’s going to annoy someone. This also brings me to thermals, it does run quite hot due to the high power chip inside, and the screen does get quite hot on the left side, sometimes too hot to hold and touch. If you have the controller connected this isn’t an issue though cause you’re not touching the device itself.The inclusion of the 5mp front camera is also nice, it supports 60fps video even. But I don’t see myself using the camera.It’s also nice to see the feature of HDMI over USB-C, this allows it to function like a Nintendo switch, and connect it up to a TV or computer monitor.Game Performance:Genshin impact: Flawless Max GraphicsZenless Zone Zero: flawless max graphicsFortnite: Epic settings 60fps, slightly stuttery but high at 60fps worked really well.3ds Wii, Wii U, Switch emulation: 3DS and Wii worked great, Wii U was ok quite laggy though,Switch emulation….not good. I was able to get into menus and things like that, but when I actually tried to get into the game, it just crashes.Really good handheld, well done razer!

Low Quality Tablet on a Decent Controller
Razer products are usually good but their tablet product is lacking for what describe as a gaming product. The resolution of the display is odd and most games have black bars to adjust for this. Games consistently crash. And the worst part was the light bleed on the edges. While I really enjoy the Kiishi controller, the tablet is severely lacking.
