My Favorite Amazon Deal of the Day: Razer Edge Gaming Tablet
Since the release of the Nintendo Switch, it seems like handheld gaming devices are making a comeback (not to mention gaming on your phone). The Razer Edge is one of them – a portable device aimed at Android users and Xbox players – and the Wi-Fi version of the tablet currently costs $249.99 on Amazon after a $150 discount. (According to Price Checker Tools , this matches the lowest price it has ever achieved.)
Razer Edge launched in early 2023 and brings mobile gaming to Android. According to PCMag’s “excellent” review , it’s a powerful portable streaming console that lets you play games from the cloud using familiar physical buttons and joysticks, or with one hand, just like on a phone.
This is the Wi-Fi version of the Razer Edge, so you won’t be able to play cloud games or stream games to it unless you’re connected to Wi-Fi, but you can run games locally via the 128GB of storage (plus a micro SD card tray for extra storage). If you download the Steam Link app , you can stream PC games while you’re near your computer.
The system runs on Android 12 and has a 6.8-inch OLED touchscreen with a resolution of 2880 by 1080 and a refresh rate of 144 Hz. The processor is a Qualcomm Snapdragon G3x and depending on your settings, you can get around 11 hours of gaming time on a full charge.
The Razer Edge uses the same screen as the Razer Kishi V2 , but with some additional features. Controller – Razer Kishi V2 Pro; you can play games using the touch screen or a controller (or both).
