Razer Edge - Android Gaming Handheld with Kishi V2 Pro Controller (Qualcomm Snapdragon G3X Gen 1, 6.8” 144Hz AMOLED FHD+ Touchscreen Display, HyperSense Haptics, PC, Xbox, and Cloud Gaming) Black

The Razer Edge is a good powerful device. If you are able to buy the combo with the controller for around £200 or under like I did, it's well worth it. The chip inside is slightly outdated, but it depends on your use case. For emulation its powerful enough for Switch emulation, (Compatibiltiy is awful unfortuantely though). For Android games, the GPU is a powerhouse even if it is outdated; I was able to max out Genshin Impact and Wreckfest and it hovered around 55-60fps. Because the phone and the controller were built with both in mind, it's a good experience. The speakers sound good, and they aren't muffled because the controller has cutouts for them, this was a noticable issue on many other controllers because they were univeral. However, the controller is a bit annoying when attaching it and detaching it from the Razer Edge, it's a tight fit which is good when it's attached, but a slight annoyance when connecting it. The two downsides, are the storage (which I have found a trick to solve) and the fact it's outdated. The storage is quite small, but for most people it's enough. Their marketing is somewhat misleading, it says the storage can be expanded, but you can't install apps or games from the Playstore directly to the MicroSD card. However, there is a trick I have seen online that I will be attempting soon where you can move apps and games to the MicroSD, this is how Android devices are supposed to work, but unfortuantely some manufacturers turn this feature off, so some magical people found a way of enabling this feature. Mine came with 128gb which is good enough for most people, it's fits a decent amount of big games on it. If you want to use the device for emulation, you can add games to the MicroSD without doing the storage trick, and run the games off of it. The other "downside" is that it's running Android 12. Natively, this is the newest update available for the Razer Edge. I have seen that there are people working on a custom image for the Razer Edge that's running Android 15, which is pretty incredible, but this is very new, and as I said it's not native, so there are many issues that could come from that even if someone gets it fully working. I like to tinker and modify my devices so this is something I will do in the future but for most people this is too much work for little benefit. It's important to note that on Android 12, this device still runs everything great. I ran into only one game that would not run and that was Warzone Mobile, it only works on Android 13 and above. Every other game I tried worked. It is a shame that natively it's stuck on Android 12, because it has enough power to play very new games, there won't be any Ray Tracing cores inside the chip so that would be bad, but normal rasterisation performance is really good, so emulation is your best bet for seeing what it can really do. The Razer Kishi V2 Pro was a suprisingly good controller. Because I got this in the bundle, the price was worth it for sure. When you first look at the controller, it looks very underwhelming, but as soon as you hold it, it's quite comfortable for a small package. I have large hands and I was more than happy. I have one of the full size GameSir phone controllers and I think I prefer this Razer controller, because you get the comfort in a much smaller profile. The buttons are good enough, they aren't the best for sure, but for me, the profile and size is more important. On the other hand, the triggers felt really good, there's a large range on them which was nice to see. The two customisable bumper buttons on the top are a nice feature, for emulation on RetroArch they work seamlessly. To conclude, I am very happy to give this device 5 stars, but it's important to note that I bought this for under £200, so I am solely giving this that score becasue the value was very good. I completetly agree with others who put 3-4 stars on this product, if you spend £300+ on this, that value drops off significantly. If i bought this device for around £250 I wouldn't be dissapointed. You are basically getting a powerful Android phone for whatever you pay, plus a decent controller. It all depends on what you pay, just remember for the future you are getting an Android 12 device, and small storage. If you are a tinkerer like me, you may be able to solve both and have yourself a great device.

Had it on for 15 minutes. Sounded like a jet engine. Battery mostly depleted. Can only stream from a laptop! Can’t play any steam games from the app! Waste of money.

I’m really loving the Razer Edge! The 6.8” 144Hz display is super smooth, and the gaming performance is top-notch thanks to the Snapdragon G3X chip. The Kishi V2 Pro controller feels great in hand with its responsive buttons and triggers. Plus, the haptics make the whole experience feel way more immersive. It’s super portable, so I can game anywhere, whether it’s Android, PC, or cloud games. Perfect for on-the-go gaming!

Quality product. The controller is great with good buttons and shoulder triggers. The screen is great other than its super wide so it feels squashed a bit. It also has big bezels but they arent too bad once you start gaming. Fast processor. Works really well for Xbox Cloud gaming. I was playing Forza Horizon 5 and it felt perfect. I would suggest that if you want this for Xbox cloud, go for it, but if you want it for retro games I would look elsewhere due to the wide screen, its just not suited for retro gaming. Top tip - remove controllers when in standby Battery life in standby is bad with the controller connected. Lasts two days, maybe three max. Remove the controller and it’s a different story. Battery no longer drains fast. Is better than my tablet now.

This is a powerfull Android console with a nice oled screen. Performance is fantastic and it can emulate a number of games consoles with ease. At first I was unsure about having a removable controller, however the kishi has a very solid feel and the controlls are excelent with nice clicky buttons. The only real downside would be the rounded corners on the display, they are a little exessive but they sit outside of the 16:9 portion of the screen so in reality I do not notice them.

Why did you choose this product over others?: Brilliant item. Brought for my son he loves it, he can connect to his PlayStation 5 and play remotely. He can Play fortnight you can also access Xbox and many more by linking your accounts.

Initially I loved this product, it had a fantastic screen and was powerful enough for anything I could throw it it. Unfortunately though the tablet has started to produce a whining noise and has began overheating even though nothing has happened to damage this device. I can only assume that the fan is defective.

I really wanted to love the Razer Edge, I really did - and there is a lot to love if you’re willing to put up with the compromises but ultimately there is more minuses than pluses for me in its current state and I personally would recommend you wait until Razer’s next generation. The Kishi V2 is a great mobile controller add on in itself but it’s a bit of a unfortunate miss that Razer didn’t choose to integrate it into its own Razer Edge design. As such, you don’t get any bonuses of built in controls and all of the negatives you would with a Kishi V2 in that it’s never going to get around being a plug in controller kit to a relatively powerful tablet. Speaking of its power - the SOC\CPU of the Razer Edge is impressively powerful but it does end up being held back by the limited RAM available. This has stopped me from really being able to push it to its limits, especially in areas like emulation. The fact the controller drains power even when the tablets turned off is super annoying, as is the super weird aspect ratio of its display - making for a lot of unnecessary boxing around the edges in all but the most modern apps. It’s also not on the latest version of android, so there’s a few incompatibility and annoyances here and there. The screen itself is lovely - bright and very responsive. The controls are so-so as you’d expect from the Kishi really. All in all I don’t hate the Razer Edge but I am left disappointed by a lot of its left over potential.

Quel monstre de puissance, je l'ai eue à 250 €, un super deal avec sa puce embarquée Snapdragon G3X Gen 1 développée spécifiquement pour la Razer Edge, qui est en fait un Snapdragon 888+ légèrement modifié, 6 go de ram qui sont suffisants vu que l'appareil ne servira qu'à jouer (je vous conseille vivement de ne pas installer d'applications sociales ou même de lier une boite mail afin d'avoir le moins de notifications possibles et de minimiser les applications en arrière-plan car ce qu'on veut ici, c'est du gaming ! La compatibilité cloud gaming (Xbox Game Pass, Steam Link, PS Remote Play, etc...) est bonne mais cela ne sera pas le focus de cet avis, car je ne suis pas convaincu de cette technologie (encore), et préférai toujours jouer en natif avec des gros pixels calculés localement sur ma machine :-) Pour moi, le gros plus de cet appareil est vraiment son ventilateur, qui permet un refroidissement actif de l'appareil, et non un passif, comme sur la plupart des téléphones qui n'ont d'autre choix que de baisser leur fréquence d'horloge pour garder des températures stables, ce qui réduit les perfs au bout de quelques minutes, mais ici nous n'avons pas ce problème : à vous les sessions de jeux de 1 heure, 2 heures voir même plus, sans aucun problème, assis confortablement dans votre canapé ou votre lit, ou même ailleurs *tousse* aux toilettes *tousse* L'écran est magnifique, avec une belle luminosité offrant une lisibilité correcte en extérieur, mais surtout ses couleurs avec la technologie AMOLED et une fluidité top avec sa fréquence pouvant aller jusqu'à 144hz (même si je déconseille de mettre une telle fréquence, très peu de jeux le supportent et cela drainera un peu plus vite votre batterie, autant le mettre à 120hz, qui est un bon équilibre). Si je devais donner un défaut, car oui rien n'est parfait, ce serait la manette Kishi V2 Pro incluse avec la tablette Edge, les joysticks sont tout petits (comparables à des joysticks Switch) et ne permettent pas des mouvements amples ou précis à mon gout, de plus les boutons A/B/X/Y sont très "clicky", ce qui ne sera pas au gout de tous, pas au mien en tout cas. Mais bon point : vous pourrez toujours changer le controlleur par un autre USB-C et ça fonctionnera parfaitement (vous n'aurez juste pas accès au mappage de touches qui est une feature sympa du Kishi V2 Pro, vous laissant jouer à la manette aux jeux android ne le supportant pas nautivement, coucou Genshin Impact !). Je l'ai testé et eu des performances incroyables sur les jeux suivants : Warzone Mobile : 60 fps constants en Qualité Très basse et Upsacling et Résolution en Très élevé Diablo Immortal : 60 fps constants en Full Ultra Star Wars Hunters : 60 fps constants en Full Ultra Snowbreak Containment Zone : 60 fps casi-constans (drops quant beaucoup d'effets à lécran) en Full Ultra Battle Prime : 60 fps constants en Full Ultra War Thunder Mobile, campagne Chars : aux alentours des 100 fps en Très élevé

Como dispositivo de juego deja mucho que desear. Te esperas de esta marca un software más pulido profesional, es solo anuncios

Ottimo dispositivo per giocare su Android e non solo, Display ottimo con refresh rate a 144 hz, cosa che nessun top di gamma ha,e con una ventola attiva per il raffreddamento. Ottimo il controller kishi v2 pro che lo rende simile a una switch. Ottimo per giocare in cloud
