The media could not be loaded. Absolutely loving the abxylute handheld for some great gaming time! The build is solid, and the graphics are spot-on.

I'd say I'm more of a casual gamer, mostly hopping on the PlayStation for some big titles or dabbling in indie games on the computer or Switch when I've got the time. It was all the PlayStation Portal hype that got me thinking about remote play, especially when I'm on the move and not at home. I stumbled upon this one in a Reddit thread, and after a few days of tinkering, it delivers exactly what it promises with fantastic quality. Exceeded my expectation!

Design:
This thing is sleek, just about the size of a Switch but with a nice curve on the back that makes it comfy to hold. The Amazon's package was big, but if you stick to the case they provide, it doesn't hog space in your bag. Overall, the design is on point, no cheap plastic vibes. I'm not a fan of that blue joystick though, but it pairs nicely with the blue lights.

Buttons:
I don't play a ton of action or shooter games, but for the games I do play, the D-pad and ABXY buttons are more than okay. I dig those big shoulder buttons; they're super comfy to press.

Gaming Experience:
Overall, it's a winner for remote play. Setting up Steam Link and PS Remote Play was easy, and I hardly notice any latency in most of my play sessions. I even took it home for Christmas holiday, a good 150 miles away, and it worked out well! I started to play Rachet&Clank and did not feel lag or stutter (just for reference, I've got around 500 Mbps internet at my place, and at home, it's around 100 Mbps). I didn't bother with that forum advice about plugging the PS5 into a wired connection for better results, but the current setup suits me just fine.

I also turned off the TV at my place and play on the handheld before bed. One thing I really appreciate is that a lot of text that's kinda hard to read on a TV looks super crisp on the handheld. I especially love the screen's colors and details; it's absolutely brilliant!!

On top of that, I tried Xbox Game Pass for cloud gaming on this device for the first time. Phones are a tad too small for me, but this handheld's just right. No need to download, which is super convenient. It lets me dive into many Game Pass games I haven't had a chance to explore yet. This device has expanded my gaming time, and I'm looking forward to more gaming action.

Pros:
- Fantastic display. I love the screen (again :D)
- Setup is pretty straightforward, even for someone like me who's not totally familiar with Android system. Remote playing is a breeze. (quick tip: during my initial search I also found a few tutorials and demos from gamers on YouTube for setting up, definitely worth checking out.)
- Solid craftsmanship; it's a good-looking handheld.

Cons:
- I noticed that when downloading certain apps from Google Play, it defaults to mobile rather than tablet, which makes them only run in portrait mode.
- A bit more power would be great for running more Android games.
- Charging isn't exactly speedy; it takes a while to go from 0% to 100%. I haven't timed it precisely, but having a fast-charging option would be nice.

Budget friendly counsel that will impress even the most snobby gammer. It's light and compact with an interesting though annoying interface. It is Logitech cloud but better. Why better bc it's cheaper. Just remember your counsel is what you make it not how much cash you throw at it. Though cash does help. Lol

If you stream games and use cloud services, this is a solid device. It simply works well. Great screen, good sound, feels good in hands, and easy to set up! It handles every streaming service you throw at it well!!

I received mine few days ago, I love it for what it's worth. When you hold it in your hand, it's just so comfortable and premium. The RGB ABXY buttons just feels great. It does what it was designed for which I'd Cloud gaming and remote play. I experienced no problems with either the PS5 or XBoX. I love the looks compared to the gcloud. Note: I'll be mentioning a lot of the Gcloud for comparison bear with me. so here goes.

Wallpapers?
There is no option to change custom wallpapers. That just one downside but I think they will implement this in the future.

Cases?
Unfortunately, there's nothing much you can do about protection except for a tempered glass and thumbgrips. They give you a free bag but that's it. I just wish a case also exist. The G cloud has an official case from Spigen and a bunch of Chinese cases that are ubiquitously available. Tempered glass is the same as the Gcloud and Nintendo Switch Thumbsticks also works with this. However, if you opt for the skull n co versions, those will interfere if you put them in the included bag.

User Interface
The UI is a bit laggy compared to what G Cloud has. Hoping that it would be optimized in the future.

Charging?
You are warned on the first time you plug in the device to use a type A to type C cable with a rating of 5w/3a. You only get a cable inside the box. The Gcloud has an included power brick. Fortune's, it's perfect for charging the abxylute as well so I'm using that. Mind you, a lot of users in ths US has already migrated to type-c to type-c so this could be a little bit inconvenient.

Price?
Again, get it if you have extra. It will offer a good experience. However, The G Cloud went as low as $149 and most of the time $249 which is almost the same price as this considering the shipping rate and time you'll have to wait to get it for this device.

Overall, I love the device. I don't regret purchasing it. It has its downsides but I don't care I'm still giving it 5 stars. Enjoy gaming guys. Cheers.

This device is my first game streaming console and it's good at what it does . Streaming !!! I had to adjust the joy sticks they were way too sensitive but nothing some kontrol freek can't fix also there's an app called keylinker which you can adjust the joysticks
