Logitech G Cloud Review | VS Steam Deck, Switch OLED & AYN Odin.

Not noticing anyone on here letting you know that almost all of your issues have been addressed as of this point. There's now proper key mapping, the Fat32 limitation has always been a non issue simply add an SD card and set it as system storage, done. Lots of options for front ends now as well for emulation (it's been made a lot easier). Video out is also now possible. Finally, there's an app that is better than the standard Xbox streaming app that allows the games to be played at 1080p instead of the standard 720p. Nice. All told I love this for streaming and emulation capabilities, it's still overpriced, but there are tons available on ebay's bigger sellers that sell open box versions now for around $200, well worth it at that price, period.

I picked up the G Cloud over the weekend from my local Best Buy for $299, and I already love the device. The screen is big and amazing, while being lighter than the Switch Pro. It runs Emulator, and I LOVE streaming via Steam. It's shockingly good. I've been using it to go through Final Fantasy VII Remake on Steam, and like, save for some home router nonsense, the experince has been stellar. I really am glad I didn't listen to reviews, because all of them told me not to get this, but.. IDK.. I guess I am the audience for this.

I have both the g cloud and steam deck and find myself using the g cloud 8 out of 10 times. The battery life is amazing and streaming PS5 is much better than anything else I have tried. It’s so good that I think it’s funny that this is marketed with Xbox but is best at streaming PS5 thanks to PS play app. Def worth $300 to me. Also PS Play actually works well outside of your home and tethering to my phone in another state felt similar to being at home on Wi-Fi. Pretty awesome stuff.

Can’t underestimate this device its more than just a streaming device. You can emulate a good amount of ps2 and gamecube games on this. Its advertised as a streaming device but its more than that.

Great honest review..thanks Subscribed*

Thanks man for using and suggesting my app PSPlay. Glad it works so well on the G Cloud. Nice video, thumbs up 👍 Florian

I just purchased the G Cloud for streaming from either an online service (I have GeForce now and sad to see Stadia go because it works great on this) and to stream from my PS5 and PC to play in bed. For its use case as a streaming device it’s amazing. I kishi (I have) and backbone and small screen on phones make the playing very undesirable. I have a switch OLED and I like it too. But the quality of a game streamed from a ps5 is way better than switch can do. Anyway, I think I’ll keep this as the ultimate remote play and streaming device on the market.

I have the console and I use it to play through Geforce Now, and it's honestly impressive. When traveling, trains with 5g Wifi are perfect for this terminal. I am happy with the purchase and for my part if they find it for €250 they will understand it.

You can use an SD card as internal storage and download any size roms. All android devices have issues with apps in portrait mode there are easy ways to force rotation lock. There's a update to this device that adds screen mapping and joystick sensitivity control.

So some the negatives have been fixed now with updates - no key mapping - no hdmi out

You definitely want tablet mode for multiple reasons. I have no issues with xcloud. I also have non-issue with ps5 remote from anywhere on earth with at least adequate cell signal. Also the gcloud cannot really play any games natively that would be larger than 4gb. With very few exceptions. I really logitech would have found a way to sell at major loss. This console would sell like hotcakes at 199... the new Sony remote device would have had to change their approach in one way or another. Dang it logitech!

By far my number one gaming device. And i have them all. This is the one. Definitely worth the $299. Actually makes android games feel like actual real games. Definitely amazing for remote play.

Can i play Enshrouded from steam on this without actually owning a pc? I have a steam account

Tablet mode makes this even better. Also you can unlock the device in tablet mode with the controller.

The psplay mention is money! Thank you!

I got the G cloud instead of a steam deck. But I don’t know if I’m satisfied yet, if I had gotten an steam deck in the first place I would spend way more money than the G cloud. The base steam deck cost $399 and I would have to start building my game library since I had never had one. On the other hand I can play PS5 games on the G cloud but I still notice some latency on some games. Like for example, I was playing Kena the other day and I was missing the jumps, it took me twice as much to pass a level. I don’t know I just wish PlayStation would just release a proper handheld device.

Think it might be perfect for me. I have game pass but don't enjoy playing it on my phone much. I love certain android games like pubg but also not as fun on my phone. Even using those controllers your phone goes in. All my efforts have basically been trying to recreate this. Expensive af for sure. But it's 50 bucks off and I just got an Amazon gift card so looks like I might be ordering it

I had an odd experience where I ordered the G Cloud, cancelled it, bought a Steam Deck, and was then sent the G Cloud by accident anyways. I’m glad I got the Deck because streaming on G Cloud was a lot blurrier for some reason. The Deck streams Xbox Cloud Gaming through a desktop web browser, so I’m wondering if the G Cloud is using an upscaled mobile app that streams at lower resolution.

Which Batman game is featured at 11:11?

You buy this for streaming games, and if you're good with that it's awesome. I got it for gamepass and got it on sale for 300. Better than gaming on an ipad
