Photo Credit: Gizmodo The first gaming handheld from Abxylute has hit the market. The Abxylute claims up to 8 hours of cloud gaming between charges and features hall effect joysticks and triggers in addition to a 7-inch, 1080p, 450-nit display. Two months after giving a sneak peek of the Android 12-based device, Abxylute has released its self-titled gaming handheld. In essence, the Abxylute is a rival to the Logitech G Cloud, which Logitech still offers for US$299.99. The Abxylute costs one-third less than the Logitech G Cloud right now, but when it reaches its MRP, the difference might be as little as 20%.
