abxylute One Pro Cloud Handheld Remote Play Gaming Console

If you set your expecations right, there’s no doubt that you will love this device. This thing is awesome for what it is designed for. It is not meant to be a bluetooth controller you have on the side of your phone – which not only can be distracting with notifications, but also will burn battery quickly. The only two devices that you should compare this to are the Logitech G Cloud and the Razer Edge – the latter has a great screen but strange aspect ratio that has issues with various things, and is essentially a mini tablet combined with a gaming controller attached to it. The G Cloud is this closest competitor – but this has many improvements over a much older, and outdated G Cloud device. The biggest improvements I see is the support for a later Android version, as well as better joysticks. Note that I will be somewhat using ‘cloud’ and ‘streaming’ interchangably here despite the nuanced difference, but rest assured it is a great device for both uses. Right out of the box, I loved the transparent black color – it gives it some character while maintaining a more inconspicious and clean look. The device is super thin and light – I’ve included a picture of how it compares to the Switch 2, which is already a very thin handheld. The 7 inch screen is amazing. Not only is it larger than most devices, but it looks great when you are streaming a graphically intensive game. It’s not as large as the Switch 2, but it is as large as other handhelds like the Steam Deck and Ally X (as shown in my photo). It’s not as powerful as some other handhelds, but it is not supposed to be the handheld that plays everything. It is amazing for streaming as you won’t find any other device in the price range that has such a large screen, great battery life, and is as thin and light. The joysticks, buttons, and d-pad are also great. The joysticks are a tad small compared to some other devices, but they feel great and operate smoothly. The ergonomics aren’t bad – there is a nice curvature in the back where you can rest your fingers while you hold it. It might not be the best size for all hand types, but it felt great to me. Speakers also sound good, but I’m not an expert and I imagine there’s only so much quality you can get from small speakers. It is not meant to replace my Switch 2 or Ally X, which are great for traveling, but for my own use case – I think this is the perfect device for when I am at home and my pc is on, but I want to spend time in another room or the backyard. If you have a good dedicated gaming PC, a good internet connection, and are looking for a streaming gaming handheld, this is it. I’ve tried several cloud and streaming applications and they work great. I recommend Better xCloud as well as Artemis or Moonlight. As shown in my photos, with high resolution and bitrate settings – games like Starfield, Palworld, Clair Obscure, etc. all look amazing on the screen. Games run better and look better than it would on my Ally X, with better battery as well. Latency almost non-existent, not enough from my experience to distract from gameplay but that is dependent on your internet connection as well. This device also supports many other services where you can get an Android app, such as Geforce Now, but since I don’t have a subscription – I did not try it. It can also run many Android games natively. You can do emulation native on the device as well without internet, but anything more modern would be difficult for it to handle, which is fine as that is not the main purpose of this device. I plan on trying some older classics on this thing to see how games will look. Is this the perfect device? No – but it is the best you can get for cloud gaming right now (in 2025) in my opinion. Of course I wish it was more powerful so it can do other things, and it would be amazing if it had an OLED and/or higher refresh screen. Also hope future versions will include Wifi 6e or 7. Hopefully that is coming up in future versions. Currently, it is understandable given the price point. I love this device so far and can’t wait to continue using it.
