The G-Cloud has become my portable Xbox and Playstation handheld thanks to remote play, and it is now my retro go device as I now have all of the retro emulators running flawlessly. It is now my portable Dreamcast, N64, PS1, Gamcube, Mame, Super Nes, Genesis player on the go. I love the G-Cloud.
I just ordered one of these. I don't have it in hand yet, but from what some people on Reddit said, you can put larger files on the SD card, but you have to use the G Cloud to format it as internal storage. You won't be able to just remove the card and use it on a PC, you instead have to leave it in the G Cloud and plug that into the PC. Some said the file transfer speed was slower, but at least you can put larger files on it.
Yes this is correct. It just takes forever to transfer the files to the SD via usb cable. If it takes an hour to fill a 512gb card on your pc it will take something like 24 hours to fill via usb cable
Wow pretty neat. And it seemed over price but was curious about it. I think this one is the one to get though. Nice screen! No mumbo jumbo! We'll see what I do
Love the GCloud. Take a look at Best buy returns they are often in there from people who don't know what they are and you can get them pretty cheap as an open box
Hmmm well I've got an Odin 2 and the RP4 Pro just like you and I can't decide if I want to grab the G Cloud to replace the Odin 2. I want the bigger screen for the streaming aspect which is what I use the Odin 2 for 95% of the time. Do you think it's a much better streaming device?
Nah it would get terrible battery life and overheat or need a fan and that would drive the price up as well as weight, etc. if there’s a newer version of the same processor then that’s all it needs with some better sticks and a lower starting price. $250 for a v2 would be perfect and people would buy them.
It’s just a 7inch monitor hooked up as a secondary monitor and for devices I review I make a quick gif in procreate to run on that screen. Now you know my secret 😂
Yes 1080p 60fps. But the images often look either muddy or washed out a lot of the time depending on your Internet connection which is unfortunate. We need a public jailbreak and a dev team to take it to another level
It may now support exFat after the latest software update I haven’t seen anything. The only way you could really do it is set you SD to internal non-portable storage and transfer via USB cable which would take a lifetime to load the card but is possible.
Like a device with a low-end processor. It can play a lot of 2D games but I wouldn't buy it for Switch. If you want to stream there definitely not a better handheld for that
ya know I was seriously about to buy one of these off of Ebay for 200, but I realized that using my phone (z fold) with a gamesir X2S ( NOT THE PRO NOR THE X2), I achieve better results, and ok battery life as you're not playing natively on the phone. and nowadays any new iPhone or android will demolish the g cloud in emulation/ native games. Just a thought to any out those like me, you never know, your phone might even support Wi-Fi 6! Mines does 6e and I just found out. with my wifi 6 router, golden. $40 controller for phone tailored to you vs $200 g cloud, you choose. EVERYBODY HAS A G CLOUD ALREADY IN THEIR POCKETS, JUST MAKE YOURS ONE WITH A CONTROLLER.
It’s a valid perspective. It really comes down to things like feel, comfort, longevity, battery, and a handful of others for me. I personally can’t get myself to game on my phone. If I’m going to have to carry around a game pad then I’m going to get a dedicated handheld. Being able to optimize a handheld once and have it setup the way you want it not spending that gaming time making tweaks every time is a big win too. But my biggest thing is notifications. When I’m gaming I don’t want my screen getting blocked out by phone calls, text messages, notifications and calendar reminders. With the GCloud I use it in bed most the time and have to charge it about once a week. My phone is charging during that time. If I bring it on the go I’m not carrying a game pad and battery charging brick for my phone in order to not worrying about everything dying on me and again using something optimized to give me the best possible experience every time. To each their own friend nothing you said was inaccurate. I got super excited to not have to use the Alt Store with the delta app on my iPhone. Played it once then remembered I hate playing retro games on a touchscreen. I do however have dedicated tablets I use with telescopic controllers and love those too, but I only use them for gaming.
That G-Cloud...needs an update heart transplant... Snapdragon 8 gen 1+ or 2... And a good cooling system... Thanks for having the Best Android base Handheld on Deck... AyN Odin 2... Transparent Blue Editio... Top left of your screen... 🫠🙃🧐🤓😎🥸🤯

It got a bad wrap at launch and I couldn’t agree more. It can really do most everything I want it to do

I got mine last week for 140 from mercari. Had case and the grip case. It's amazing.
Awesome deal

Awww such a cute baby
Thank you
$299-350 is a tough sell with the Ayn Odin 2 at $330-400
I agree. Always been hard to swallow. Can often find it open box for $200 at BestBuy
Nice vid man. Didn't expect the HDMI out update. Does it have a camera for vid calls?
Thank you. N0 camera but oddly 2 microphones lol. It’s awesome that Logitech keeps adding value to the handheld.

@@CellPhish bummer
I feel like they were planning to do something with the sd card slot but things didnt go well
I dunno I’ve wondered that. Or that it costs next to nothing no put it in and they were like let’s see what the people do with it
You can put larger game files on there if you select the card as internal storage. There’s a RUclips video on it, and I have done it.
That is correct but then you spend a lot of time transfers g with the cable. I’ve tried it before things that take minutes often take hours
@@CellPhish That may be true, but the point is you can do it. And for most people, it’s one and done.
yo can you send a link of that video.. there is still no update for the exfat support on G Cloud..

If Logitech refreshed this to a snapdragon 8 it would be seriously one of the best android handhelds period
Yes it would
Nah it would get terrible battery life and overheat or need a fan and that would drive the price up as well as weight, etc. if there’s a newer version of the same processor then that’s all it needs with some better sticks and a lower starting price. $250 for a v2 would be perfect and people would buy them.
what is the white box that is flipping between animation that sitting on top of the red handheld device and where can i get one?
It’s just a 7inch monitor hooked up as a secondary monitor and for devices I review I make a quick gif in procreate to run on that screen. Now you know my secret 😂
PS Portal is a 1080p screen. 👍🏼
Yes 1080p 60fps. But the images often look either muddy or washed out a lot of the time depending on your Internet connection which is unfortunate. We need a public jailbreak and a dev team to take it to another level
Overpriced with a wonky d pad is kind of a dealbreaker. If they want to charge 300, got to get those things right.
I rarely use the DPad, I mostly stream Tripple A games with it
Ive seen video of people moving larger than 4gig files onto their sd card. Im confused now 😅
It may now support exFat after the latest software update I haven’t seen anything. The only way you could really do it is set you SD to internal non-portable storage and transfer via USB cable which would take a lifetime to load the card but is possible.
What is the racing game being played?
Hot wheels
How does the switch games plays on this device?
Like a device with a low-end processor. It can play a lot of 2D games but I wouldn't buy it for Switch. If you want to stream there definitely not a better handheld for that

RUclips, netflix, tiktok, facebook?
You forgot Prime 😂

Oh yes I have all the Odins. In the GCloud’s defense it’s a streaming handheld. They could have put a weaker chip in it lol.
The chip in the G cloud does not need cooling.
