Logitech has announced the Logitech G Cloud, their newest handheld device that puts a focus on cloud-based streaming services such as Xbox Cloud Gaming, NVIDIA GeForce Now, and more.

The Logitech G Cloud is scheduled to launch in North America on October 17 and will retail for $350. Featuring a 7″ 1080p IPS touchscreen, 60Hz refresh rate, and a whopping 6,000mAh battery for over 12 hours of gaming, the handheld is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G processor and 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM.

Strangely, the Logitech G Cloud handheld will only support Wi-Fi, as there will be no 5G or SIM card support, which greatly limits its usability outside of places with adequate Wi-Fi.
