It also has a larger display resolution than the Steam Deck (1280 x 800) and all of the Nintendo Switch models (1280 x 720). The black levels don’t have a gray haze over them, so the contrast looks great. I’m not even mad the Logitech G doesn’t have an OLED display, because every game I tried on it looks stunning. (You can only do this with Nvidia GeForce Now, not Xbox’s cloud gaming service.) It’s truly remarkable to see how just how much more battery life you can get from a gaming device by only playing games in the cloud. I was playing at a 1080p resolution with the graphics cranked to their maximum preset, too. I spent a week using the Logitech G, playing a range of games with varying levels of graphical fidelity like Stardew Valley, Dragon Age Inquisition, Cyberpunk 2077, Banjo Kazooie, Death Stranding, Escape Academy, and Powerwash Simulator, and after about 4-5 hours of playtime, the battery was only at 50%. That’s much longer than the Nintendo Switch (4.5 to nine hours), Nintendo Switch Lite (three to seven hours), and the Valve Steam Deck (two to four hours). Logitech’s new console boasts 12-plus hours of battery life, depending on how often you play, screen brightness, and a variety of other factors that differ from gamer to gamer. But for the casual player, even if you game 10-20 hours a week, the performance is indistinguishable from playing locally on the Steam Deck, Xbox, or even a PC. Loading times are also fast.Ĭompetitive players should stick with playing games the traditional way (on a local machine) because there is always less latency compared to cloud gaming. When the Logitech G has access to a large amount of bandwidth (50Mbps or more) playing games on it feels like playing a game downloaded to the Steam Deck or any other handheld console. The Logitech G supports up to Gigabit Wi-Fi speeds (WiFi 5). What we like Great performance over 5GHz Wi-Fi and 5G This console normally costs $350, but if you pre-order from Logitech or Amazon before 10/17 you can get it for $300. The console also functions as a regular Android tablet, as it has a touch screen, and anything you can download from the Google Play Store can be installed on this device. (It can run Google Stadia too, but Stadia won’t be around much longer.) The Logitech G runs on Android OS and comes with Nvidia GeForce Now, Xbox Cloud Gaming, and a host of Google apps preinstalled.
