In a few years, it will be obsolete.

For $289, you could get a Odin 2 whose all most specs are way better than Logitech. The only thing Logitech wins is the screen size 7" vs 6".

For what it's worth, the system isn't bad. Good screen, good build quality, good concept and wayyyyy underpowered. It can run a bunch of emulators all the way to Dreamcast, and with the right settings even a couple of PS2 and GameCube games. It's just overpriced and underpowered for what it is. Something like an Odin2 at the same price is a way better buy and much more powerful. I'd this was under $150, it's a decent buy for the quality, but there's better bang for your buck elsewhere (Trimui Smart Pro would be an example)

It is for streaming game services (such as Gamepass) from the "Cloud" without needing a console running at the same time.

This isn't an emulator but can emulate if you force it to. Really shouldn't be judged as an emulator because it wasn't designed to be one.

Got one for $180 refurbished and think that was a good deal. $260 new is not great but…okay, if you're really really itching for a handheld streamer.

For its niche purpose of streaming with a strong wifi connection, this device is unbeatable and ~$200 price range is adequate if you consider it a luxury gaming accessory. The screen is big and beautiful, the joysticks are better than a Backbone or Switch, it's light and comfy, and its battery is great.

My one wish for this is the ability to accept a SIM card so I could use a spare line's data plan vs needing wifi.

Snagged an open box Rog Ally for $280. Non extreme but works damn near equal to the msi claw I returned that cost me $680. I personally think this should be below $200 because it cant play any PC games without streaming.

Yes I've heard that. Luckily I don't play anything that requires it so I'm fine with it lol

I have this and love it. That said it's a $200 machine all day, I don't know why Logitech has been so stingy with the price of this

Completely disagree. It's just an Android tablet with a controller. It emulates up to PS2/GC and Wii well. It's in between a Retroid Pocket 3+ and 4 pro in terms of power.
