A lightweight gaming handheld that runs on the cloud.

The Logitech G Cloud portable gaming device is marked down to $250 (normally $350) at Logitech when you use promo code LOGISPRING.
This tiny portable gaming console sports a 7-inch 60hz 1080p display, up to 12 hours of battery life, 1TB storage space, and only weighs 463g--figures that eclipse similar devices like Nintendo’s Switch lineup or Valve’s Steam Deck.
However, true to its name, The G Cloud is a cloud-only gaming device; it doesn’t run games natively on the hardware. Instead, the G Cloud is compatible with several major cloud streaming services, including Nvidia GeForce Now, Amazon Luna, Xbox cloud streaming via Game Pass Ultimate, and other streaming apps available from the Google Play Store.
The G Cloud also works as a remote play device, so you can stream games from your PlayStation, Xbox, or gaming PC over Wi-Fi, and it supports 2.4 and 5GHz Wi-Fi for strong, stable internet connections necessary to maintain optimal visuals and performance while streaming games via a cloud service or an external device.
In other handheld news, Asus announced its entering the portable market with the Asus ROG Ally, a Windows machine with a 7-inch IPS display.
