Razor Edge
What’s next? The Razer Edge for Android device – built with snapdragon d2x gen1 gaming platform – active cooling for sustained performance, designed with Qualcomm for Razer Edge.
Paired with a 6.8inch AMOLED FHD+ Display – it is the best in class and can’t find a better screen on the market. Razer says because of this screen, there is less power draw on the battery so you can play longer. Graphics have a 144hz refresh rate and features immersive controls.
“The core concept of every product we put out always boils down to one thing, our ‘For Gamers. By Gamers.’ motto,” said Richard Hashim, Head of Razer’s Mobile & Console Division. “With the Razer Edge, we’ve created the ultimate handheld gaming platform. Together with Verizon and Qualcomm, we designed the Razer Edge 5G to be a true gamer device, capable of supporting gamers’ entire catalogues of AAA games or allowing them to stream endlessly online, taking their gaming experience on the go with near-zero latency.”
Ultrafast 288Hz sample rate touch screen with gorilla glass, the controller has, and also microswitch buttons, ultra-precise D-Pad and hyper sense haptics. None of this matters without connectivity – features wifi 6e uncongested 6hz channels.
When not connected to Wifi, the Edge can use Verizon Ultra Wideband 5G (10x faster than 4G) – it’s about cloud gaming for Razer and the device can load native Android games. The Edge comes preloaded with Steam Link, Xbox Game Pass, and the Nexus app.
