But yeah, it feels fantastic. We have a WiFi 6 network and both the PC and PS5 are on WiFi. I'm sure there'd be an improvement in performance if they were hardwired but I honestly don't notice any lag. I also stream to other devices like a brand new MacBook pro and the G Cloud still offers better performance.

    Russ, just a quick note, you often mix up WiFi 5 vs WiFi 6, which are version numbers, calling it 5 GHz, which is the frequency of the signal. WiFi 6 still operates at 2.4 and 5 GHz, it just has some other enhancements over WiFi 5.

      I don’t also think wifi 6 (or maybe even wifi 6E) would be all that beneficial for a streaming device. I could be wrong but I believe wifi 6 would mainly increase overall bandwidth throughput and not have a meaningful impact to stability and latency. Which matters a lot more for a streaming device. This device streams games a lot better than my iPhone, Apple TV and even my raspberry pi. So I think wifi 5 is more than good enough for this device

      ⁠​⁠​⁠@@jaywylie1995depends on your use case. I love the display on the G Cloud, and the display on the Odin is fantastic as well. You’re getting a 1080p panel with both, but I feel like the colors just pop on the Odin. As for comfortability, I think the G Cloud is still a more comfortable device to hold, but even though the Odin isn’t as thin it is still a very comfortable experience. If you’re wanting to do high end emulation/android gaming then Odin is totally worth it. If you’re more of a retro gamer, then the G cloud will obviously be just fine. Like I say, I still use both pretty regularly so it was worth it to me. Hopefully this helps!

    I like the new reviews and the re-reviews for the Logitech G-Cloud that are currently happening. People are really finally understanding what a great device it really is. Ergonomics, battery life and its cloud gaming capabilities are unmatched. Remember, emulation was never advertised for this product so that is just a bonus. Pairing the Logitech G-Cloud with Geforce Now Ultimate leads to gaming performance that no handheld windows device can match. If you're a cloud gaming enthusiast like me, this is a must buy and worth it's price. I play my Logitech G-Cloud and Razer Edge 5G way more than my Steam Deck. They are superior portable experiences and excel in their intended designed purposes imho. Meanwhile, the Steam Deck is kinda cool but mostly cumbersome in all aspects.

    Sure the chip set is older for roms etc, but most of your power is from the cloud. So technically you have all the power you need from the cloud.

    I got a g cloud for $160, open box from eBay earlier this year. Loved it, but then got a ROG Ally, Odin 2, and RGB30. So, I haven’t had much of a reason to pick it up.

    Hey Russ - What dock are you using in this video?
    Bought mine a little less than year ago during a sale and i still use it! I find its comfort to be second to none,. including the Steam Deck. I think the ergonomics combined with the light weight make it the most comfortable handheld I've ever used

    I literally just got an open box G Cloud from ebay yesterday. I'm not disappointed. The control on screen mapping is actually pretty good. Playing an android device with an attached controller makes it feel like an android gaming console, which is a feeling you definitely don't get from adding an accessory controller to your phone.

    I tried it out for a couple days. I liked the screen, pictures and controls. The streaming was hit and miss for me though. Great when it was working but dealt with some lag with cloud and remote play. I thought I had decent internet too. So I returned it. Made me appreciate the console more. This has potential

    Love these videos. After watching many of your reviews, i concluded on the logitech G cloud. My plan was to mostly use game pass as i am now but now after watching this video i have an itch to try the emulators. I tried following your Android starter guide but that guide is meant for mobile phone set up from what i concluded. Especially since the G does not support file format required for emulation. Wondering if you can build a guide that will support G cloud users in setting up emulation? Would be very helpful for me for sure! thank you

  • @stevenneaves8079
    @stevenneaves8079 Před 6 měsíci

    I’ve been eyeing either the X55 or the g cloud for mostly emulation with some remote play. I don’t wanna play anything newer than GameCube and even then just a couple of those. I realllyyy like my switch and its form factor so these two devices appealed to me quite a bit. Now that I can find the g cloud on eBay around $200, I think that will be what I finally pull the trigger on. Video out plus a dock with Ethernet will be such a welcome upgrade.

  • @givemhades
    @givemhades Před 6 měsíci +1

  • @Loriborn
    @Loriborn Před 6 měsíci +1

    I own a G Cloud that I use specifically for GBA games. Smaller handhelds are tough to see for me, but the larger screen makes those games much more tolerable, and the ergonomics matter more to me than performance. Besides, if I want to play super demanding consoles like PS2, I don't think there's a single handheld out today that really fits my pick-up-and-play mentality with these older games. Also, they tend to be slower, longer games, not well suited for playing on the go, so better to play on a real console or PC and get a perfect experience, than use a handheld and get a hampered experience with the convenience of playing on-the-go, when generally, if I'm on-the-go, I'm probably too busy to game anyway. G cloud is nice middle ground for playing in bed or something, where the portability is less important, but the ergonomics and battery life make it very nice.

  • @PC-ONE

    I got mine for $199 used and its great. The battery life is excellent. I will say it's been largely replaced by the ROG Ally but if your use case is just Moonlight/Local game streaming and emulation then its a really comfortable device that's great to use. The yellow under the joysticks is really ugly though.

    It's kind of interesting to find this video I found out about the Logitech Cloud Wednesday when my dad & I were walking around Best Buy before heading to his house(was visiting him for the weekend early), I thought it was interesting that there's posters & stuff about it but I was recovering from a cold so didn't think much on it nor tried to look for it. I kinda forgot that I wanted to look it up later until now so oddly good timing.(Maybe since it's been a few days) I didn't even know this was a Logitech device cause I didn't check past seeing it was called "cloud" so that's interesting.
    This is interesting but I think I'll just stick to the Odin 2 when I get the chance, be nice if the sd card format was changed

    Good review! Yeah, the Logitech G Cloud doesn't seem too bad at all if you can snag it on sale. I've seen it on sale at various stores.
    I don't remember seeing a setup guide for the Logitech G Cloud on Retro Corps. I might have missed it, though. Though, I'm guessing you would set it up like any other Android device.

    I love my G Cloud. Find myself playing it more than my PS5 or XBSX. I wanted a device where I could stream GFN. GFN ultimate tier is God.
    I’m not one for local games on a handheld that only last 2-4hrs, tinkering with settings just to get low-med graphics and a hot loud brick.
    The G Cloud is a premium tablet in my opinion. The IPS screen is amazing and the feel of the device is top notch.
    Who doesn’t have fast internet these days lol. G Cloud is an amazing device so far.
    While Steam and ROG ppl play at low to medium settings, I’m on GFN maxed out settings.
    Say what you want.

  • @GRIMEYtheFATMAN
    @GRIMEYtheFATMAN Před 6 měsíci

    My second biggest point of contention about this device(obviously the primary is price) is that I have yet to see whether the triggers have rumble, since I would be using this for console streaming with a focus on racing games, where the rumble would let me know to ease up the throttle or brakes, as it indicates the limits of grip...

  • @srfeger
    @srfeger Před 6 měsíci +11

    So pleased to see you re-reviewed the device. I bought it 6 months after your initial video and always wondered about your take on it post-updates. Now I know. 😁 My one question remains on the FAT32 limitation. Yes, it's disappointing, but you can circumvent that limitation by formatting the SD card as internal storage. Now this makes transfers a lot slower as you've pointed out elsewhere and you can't move your SD out of the slot without re-formatting it. But if the only negative is the transfer speed, then that's a one-shot issue, right? Once it's on the SD card, it doesn't matter. It works like it always would, fast as it always would have been. I guess I'm wondering why that makes FAT32 such a big deal. Does everyone move the SD cards around a lot?

    • @Justin-qp1co
      @Justin-qp1co Před 6 měsíci +3

      Good to know the limit can be circumvented, but actually I don't think there were many use cases I will need files bigger than 4GB on this device.
