Mysterious Logitech mobile console sighted
The hardware manufacturer Logitech, known primarily for PC peripherals, promised a new mobile console at the beginning of August. It is a device for cloud gaming, i.e. streaming video games from the home network or the Internet. The design initially remained classified, now the first pictures have appeared.
These were published by the notorious hardware leaker Evan Blass via Twitter – and already reveal many details about Logitech’s “cloud gaming handheld”. This is how the interface of the Android console can be seen – with prominently placed streaming offers from Microsoft (Xbox Cloud Gaming), Nvidia (GeForce Now) and Steam, where the games are not rendered in the cloud data center but on the home PC. Play Store contains many emulators The fact that the interface also shows the Google Play Store gives hope for a good supply of software . In Google’s Android app marketplace, there are numerous emulators for old console games, for which even a comparatively weak main processor should offer enough power. The images also allow initial conclusions to be drawn about the ergonomics of the Logitech console. The button layout is reminiscent of a Nintendo Switch. Where the Logitech console is held, it is a bit thicker, which should ensure comfortable handling during longer gaming sessions. Especially interesting for home use Although Logitech advertises the console as mobile in its announcement, the device should be a priority for most users to be used at home. After all, in order to fully benefit from the cloud gaming functions, you need a fast and stable network connection in order to stream games with as little delay as possible to the mobile device. Booming market for mobile consoles The market for mobile gaming has recently picked up speed. In addition to the immensely successful Nintendo Switch, Valve’s Steam Deck is now also courting customers. In addition, there are some Chinese hardware manufacturers such as Anbernic or Powkiddy who offer affordable mobile consoles with the Android operating system.
