Picked this up at $299, 250 is prob the sweet spot, but I don't regret it! For streaming, you can't beat the specs. Been waiting for so long for a 1080p screen in this form factor (no black bars or stretched out video, like you would get in a phone) it just makes sense for streaming. Pairs great with Moonlight at 60fps, and works just as well with all of the other services. Very comfortable, light, and good ergonomics. I don't like that people are hating on the specs, this is perfect for the use case. I too have a Deck, but this "just works" better for streaming and is equipped with a better screen resolution. Moonlight can't be beat for local or remote streaming, this is the perfect companion device for it!

I agree completely. Grabbed it for the same price. I've only used it with excellent internet so far, but I've been so happy with the purchase. It works beautifully. And honestly, the ergonomics and design are super appealing and comfortable.

I may plan to get a G-Cloud later and I'm speculating the price will drop down at approximately $275-$299, a more fitting price from my perspective. I've had plenty of experience with cheap handheld consoles in my past, some even 7 inch cheap handhelds. So, I'd know if it's trash and not worth picking up. For specific reasons, I don't see the G-Cloud as a cheap handheld. Therefore, I believe $200 is too low a price to properly benefit the production and gaming company of the handheld. If the G-Cloud was just a streaming device and had a 5 inch display, then I'd say it's way overpriced. Though, because the G-Cloud also runs local emulation on a 7 inch display it's close to the price it should be (just slightly overpriced). 7 inch displays is somewhat rare when it comes to these retro handheld consoles. We already have more than enough 3.5 - 5 inch handhelds to choose from.

Also to note as shown by Taki Udon. It don't allows for exfat on the SD card and the chip is either misconfigired or nerfed so it doesn't gives 100% of its possible performance. . And it does not has button mapping software built in either. Add that to the lack of Hdmi-out and the price becomes even more egregious. If the device had been $199, it would have sold like crazy. It maximum price should had been $249. At $349 it is just crazy given the specs. For that price it needed to have all the missing features I mentioned, a better dpad and at least a D1200 with 8gb of ram. Then I would not have had any objections because of the screen, sound and build quality. As then you could have played up to any new Android game and Emulated up to 3DS, Wii and PS2. Apart of great game streaming. It would had been the very best Android based handheld console so far. Instead it is just too expensive for the market it is supposedly targeting.

Its worth it. Up to 12 hours of battery life, 1080p @ 60fps, 7 inch very bright screen, a ton of retro games. It runs great streaming from my Xbox and pc. Gamepass games run smoothly. The G cloud allows me to get most out of my subscriptions. Once you learn how to use it and take advantage of its capabilities, you can see its value especially if you have cloud subscriptions.

I think this device could have a niche market, but not at this price. For game streaming, emulation, and it’s form factor, I like it much more than the Steam Deck. The price really isn’t competitive tho right now. I think if this is at $150-$175 it’s a sweet spot. Logitech hardware should be great and durable. I think the form factor looks much better than steam deck. I really think if they had priced this lower, added Video out, and sold an optional dock that got their total package price up to this amount, it would be more compelling for me.

The G Cloud is lighter with a better display and battery, but so are many recent smartphones, and those have 5g so they actually make sense as a cloud gaming portable. The G Cloud isn't really competing with the Steam Deck it's competing with phones, and in that context it really has no reason to exist over something like an iPhone and a Backbone One or an Xperia and a Razer Kishi. Obviously a smartphone is more expensive but people buy them anyway on monthly installments already so really the comparison is just buying a whole handheld system that would drain even the most expensive T-Mobile plan's hotspot data in just a few hours or just a controller that could allow one to game anywhere with unlimited 5G data.

Who knows, maybe “cloud game streaming” handhelds and boxes will become a thing just like “retro emulation” handhelds and boxes are and completely oversaturate the market, and we get significant decrease in price. For now, I am failing to see the point in this handheld as you can already have everything you need with “mobile gamepad” attached to your smartphone. It will most likely go onto sale few months from now, and you could get it for half the price…
