Esa afirmación ahora recibió el apoyo de Digital Foundry, que dijo el lunes, citando fuentes, que ya se estaba trabajando en una computadora portátil Sony. La compañía lanzó un dispositivo móvil el año pasado, el Portal de PlayStationque actúa como disparador remoto para la PS5.
Nuevo informe móvil de Sony compatible
En su última forma DF En Vivo Semanal Ver en YouTube Digital Foundry, conocida por su análisis técnico en profundidad de juegos y consolas, ha confirmado el informe sobre la nueva computadora de mano PlayStation.
“…De hecho, escuchamos acerca de esta computadora portátil hace unos meses de un par de fuentes específicamente. “No estamos en el negocio de filtrar cosas, pero es interesante que esto finalmente esté comenzando a difundirse, porque en cierto modo confirmó lo que. Hemos visto y oído extraoficialmente “sobre esa existencia, lo cual es genial”, dijo John de Digital Foundry Linneman durante la presentación.

La semana pasada Bloomberg un informe Afirmó que la compañía estaba desarrollando un nuevo dispositivo portátil, destinado a competir con el exitoso Nintendo Switch. El dispositivo podrá ejecutar juegos localmente, en línea con los dispositivos portátiles anteriores de Sony, como BSP y PSVita. Sin embargo, es probable que falten años para el lanzamiento de dicho dispositivo móvil.
El último dispositivo portátil de la compañía, PlayStation Portal, solo puede transmitir juegos y medios desde una PS5 conectada a través de una conexión Wi-Fi. Esto requiere emparejar el dispositivo con la PS5, que debe permanecer en modo de suspensión para habilitar el Uso a distancia en el Portal.
Sin embargo, PlayStation Portal consiguió… actualizar En noviembre, agregó soporte de transmisión en la nube para algunos juegos de PS5. Esta función, actualmente en versión beta, está disponible para suscriptores de PlayStation Plus Deluxe/Premium en países seleccionados. Según Sony, los usuarios de PlayStation Portal podrán transmitir más de 120 juegos de PS5 directamente desde los servidores de la compañía, sin necesidad de un dispositivo PS5 vinculado a la consola.
The MSI Claw, released in March 2024, has gotten plenty of negative attention thanks to its poor optimization at launch. But a new PC gaming handheld sporting an Intel processor is coming and may be the answer to Intel’s portable console woes.
The AOKZOE A2 Ultra has been confirmed to sport an Intel Core Ultra 7 155H, according to a report from PCGamesN. This is the same processor powering the high-end models of the MSI Claw A1M, which received plenty of backlash due to its struggling with basic gaming tasks that its competition easily handles.
Unlike MSI, the company behind the device seems to have more experience with manufacturing PC handhelds, though, like the Steam Deck and nearly every other handheld in the market, it usually uses AMD processors. While we don’t know why AOKZOE made the switch to Intel, there’s a good chance that the AOKZOE A2 Ultra could be the redemption story that Intel needs right now.
MSI Claw was disappointing
As of now, there’s no clear reason why the MSI Claw is struggling. Our own preview of the handheld was beaming, praising its consistent and excellent performance with the limited games on hand. However, once in-depth reviews arrived, tales of subpar performance woes quickly spread.
These issues include some Intel-related updates refusing to install properly, the MSI Center’s inconsistent game launching, overheating issues, inconsistent performance, and more. Right now, the universal experience with this system seems to be frustration and disappointment.
And the problem is, we don’t know who’s to blame for this. Is it MSI’s manufacturing process, or architectural limitations with Intel processors? The answer will most likely be settled with the AOKZOE A2 Ultra once it launches, which makes this handheld incredibly vital for Intel to prove that its processor can stand against AMD’s in this market.

If you ever wished you could print on anything, Printisian could be for you. The handheld inkjet printer lets users print on various materials and surfaces, including wood, paper, metals, fabric, leather, stone and even food and skin.
Its modular design allows for easy switching between different accessories, such as an edge positioner, laser aligner, and code scanner, to meet specific printing needs.
The printer has a 5-inch touchscreen, runs on SianOS (powered by Android), has 1GB of RAM and 8GB of storage, and a 300mAh replaceable battery.
Beware ink costs
The device can print text, pictures, date and time, and QR codes or barcodes at 35CM/s. To use it, connect it to your phone via Bluetooth, add a file, and slide the printer across the area you want to print on.
Printisian supports two sizes of ink cartridge and offers variable printing heights and a resolution of 600DPI. It can cover up to 39.3 inches per print, and you can expect “up to” 1,531 yards of print per cartridge.
As is the case with all printers, you need to factor in the cost of the ink. A small color cartridge for the device will currently set you back $59 (usual price is $79), while a large cartridge is $129 (usual price $169). The creators say you can use any compatible ink cartridge from other manufacturers – it’s designed to take standard size cartridges – although they (obviously) recommend their own cartridges as some inks may not print so well on certain surfaces.
As with any crowdsourced projects, you should be aware that backing a product doesn’t mean that it will be completed or that you will receive the item you backed. That said, at the time of writing $65,601 had been pledged, well above the $6,385 goal, so it’s looking positive.
Sign up to the TechRadar Pro newsletter to get all the top news, opinion, features and guidance your business needs to succeed!
You can pledge for a choice of available rewards, with the basic Printisian Standard coming in at $399, for which you get the printer itself and one small black ink cartridge (0.5 Inch). The price increases significantly if you want to back a version with the various accessories included, but extras can be purchased separately.
Console modder Hairo Satoh has posted a video to Instagram that appears to show a working PlayStation gaming handheld constructed from an obscure PS1 controller.
As explained by IGN, this isn’t the first time that Satoh has tinkered with gaming tech. His Instagram profile is filled with photos or videos showing off interesting creations ranging from a custom Tamagotchi mobile phone to an incredibly bizarre looking Game Boy Advance SP with two folding displays.
This latest creation, which Satoh describes as a “PS1 on the go,” appears to be built using the obscure Takara Roulette Controller. In addition to many of the usual PlayStation controller buttons, the Takara Roulette Controller, which was released exclusively in Japan, originally featured a prominent color spinner that was used to play the PS1 version of The Game of Life.
Satoh seems to have managed to replace this spinner with a small color display that shows a functional emulator, presumably alongside plenty of internal changes to run it. Combined with working controls, it seems to be a fully-fledged handheld video game console. He even posted some short clips showing the handheld in action, playing through the first few moments of PlayStation titles like Resident Evil 3 and Mega Man 8.
In another post he detailed some of the device’s specs, which includes USB-C charging, a memory card slot, left and right triggers, a volume wheel, and dual stereo speakers. It’s clear that the handheld is a personal project, but its apparent offline functionality does pose an interesting point of comparison to Sony’s latest official handheld, the PlayStation Portal.
While Satoh’s pocket-size custom creation seems like it would be perfect to take out and about, the PS Portal is a remote play device that requires a constant internet connection to use. While this limitation might be disappointing for some, we still think the PS Portal has plenty of merit. Our review praised its comfortable ergonomic design, not to mention the seamless performance when you’re connected to a high-speed internet connection.

There are all sorts of things that could make Xbox a success over the next few years: the launch of The Elder Scrolls 6, Fable 4, expanded Game Pass options, a killer expansion for Starfield, and a host of exclusives. But the one thing I don’t think will change the success of Xbox and the position of the Xbox Series X in the market is a handheld console.
Murmurs of some form of Xbox handheld have been bubbling away for years, but few rumors have really ignited. But more recently Jez Corden from our sibling publication Windows Central reported that Microsoft has handheld prototypes, and Microsoft Gaming boss Phil Spencer has told Polygon that the company is exploring “different hardware form factors and things.” So this would pour some fuel on the smoldering rumor fire.
The simple fact is that you already have a handheld Xbox console in the form of your smartphone. If you fork out for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate to get access to Xbox exclusives, games spanning multiple generations, and PC games – which means Game Pass Ultimate remains one of the best deals in gaming – you also get access to Xbox Cloud Gaming, which lets you stream games to all manner of devices, but most notably phones and tablets.
All you need is the Game Pass app and you can access a suite of Xbox games, old and new, on one of the best Android phones or an iPhone; the latter does need an app that points to a web browser bookmark, but it’s trivially simple to set up.
Ideally, you’ll have a Bluetooth Xbox controller and some form of bracket to attach your phone to it, or a controller accessory that turns your phone into a pseudo-Nintendo Switch. But if not, there are some games that Microsoft has retrofitted with on-display controls – think virtual buttons rather than custom touchscreen controls – which work reasonably well for a brief gaming session. And with access to 5G, even cheap phones can tap into Xbox Cloud Gaming.
Now I’ll admit the service isn’t perfect, especially in terms of lag, but it’s far from bad. And even if you don’t think a smartphone is big enough for a good handheld gaming console, well there’s a solution to that in the form of Valve’s Steam Deck.
Steaming ahead
(Image credit: Valve/Future)
With a little bit of manipulation on the Steam OS desktop, you can coax the Steam Deck to not only access Xbox Game Pass via a web browser but also recognize the Deck’s controller. Once I set it up this way, I actually finished Starfield on my Steam Deck.
Of course, if some code wrangling isn’t your scene then you can opt for one of a growing crop of Windows 11-based handheld gaming PCs, like the ROG Ally, that run Game Pass out of the box and can also run Xbox games natively.
So with such hardware and streaming capabilities, I don’t really see a place for a dedicated handheld Xbox device. Unless Microsoft can make such a console at a cost that undercuts the aforementioned Steam Deck, I’m not sure there are a lot of people clamoring for such a device.
The fact that Sony‘s PS Vita never really found its feet on a large scale, and the PlayStation Portal is a niche device, shows that even PlayStation struggles with handheld consoles. So one would be forgiven for asking “Why would Xbox ever bother?”
And before you say it, yes I know people will look towards Nintendo as an example of making handheld gaming work. But Nintendo has decades of experience and goodwill to call upon, starting with the Game & Watch, then the iconic Game Boy then the various DS models, and culminating with the Nintendo Switch OLED – and potentially a Switch 2. I’d love to be proven wrong, but I can’t see Microsoft coming up with a device that would get within spitting distance of even Nintendo’s ‘weakest’ handhelds.
However, if Microsoft revealed a mobile Xbox device made with the same care and precision as its Surface machines, I’d be all over it. But putting aside gadget lust, I feel the current options we already have mean that there are already handheld Xbox consoles available in different form factors.
Instead of pursuing new hardware, I’d much rather Microsoft and the Xbox division worked to make cloud-based game streaming even better and optimize games for use on the Steam Deck and other handheld PCs. Heck, it would be amazing if some older Xbox exclusives even got ported over to the Switch, though that could be a bit pie-in-the-sky thinking.
In short, I don’t need or want a handheld Xbox console. But I do need and want Microsoft to build out the Xbox experience on handheld hardware; I don’t think that’s asking for too much.

The release of Valve’s Steam Deck caused a massive shift in the gaming handheld market, with other manufacturers releasing their own versions of a PC portable machine. Devices such as the Asus ROG Ally, MSI Claw, and Lenovo Legion Go have all been aiming to unseat the Steam Deck.
The Lenovo Legion Go, in particular, is set up to be the Steam Deck rival in aesthetics, specs, and performance. But how does this PC handheld hold up against the current champ of PC handhelds? We’ll compare both to see which is superior in performance and which is the overall better purchase.
Steam Deck vs Lenovo Legion Go: price
(Image credit: Valve)
Valve’s Steam Deck costs $399 / £349 for its entry-level 64GB model, which is the closest match to the Nintendo Switch OLED. There are also OLED models, which are $549 / £479 for the 512GB model and $649 / £569 for the 1TB model.
The Lenovo Legion Go retails at $699.99 / £700 (inc. VAT) / AU$1,299 and launched on November 2023. The cheaper model comes with 16GB RAM and 512GB of storage. The more expensive $749.99 ups the storage to 1TB. Lenovo has stated that a version with the AMD Ryzen Z1 CPU is set for a future launch.
In terms of pricing, Steam Deck is the winner. Even the OLED models are cheaper than the most expensive Legion Go model and both have 1TB of storage.
Steam Deck vs Lenovo Legion Go: design & features
(Image credit: Future)
The Steam Deck and Legion Go have similar designs, with dual analog sticks, a black-heavy chassis, a large screen, and tons of buttons in the front and back of the system. Both also have ventilation exhausts on the top of the system to compensate for the massive amounts of heat generated by their components.
The Steam Deck is lighter and smaller, with a screen size of 7 inches. The OLED version upgrades the display even more. It’s an efficient design that makes it comfortable to hold it up for several hours.
The larger and heavier Legion Go has an 8.8-inch QHD+ screen. The side controllers are removable joy-cons, with one able to mount on a base for FPS mode, and there’s a built-in kick-stand for balancing on a flat surface. The analog sticks even have light rings that flash colors depending on battery life.
If you prize weight and size the most, the Steam Deck is the clear winner. However, the Legion has far more features built in, making it more flexible for multiple types of gaming styles and genres.
Steam Deck vs Lenovo Legion Go: specs
(Image credit: Future)
Here’s a full breakdown of the Steam Deck’s vital statistics:
Size: 298mm x 177mm x 49mm (W x H x D)
Weight: Approx 669 grams
CPU: AMD Zen 2 4c/8t, 2.4-3.5GHz (up to 448 GFlops FP32)
Battery life: approximately 2 to 3 hours of gameplay
Charging time: approximately 3 hours
Steam Deck vs Lenovo Legion Go: performance
(Image credit: Future)
In terms of performance, the Lenovo Legion Go is objectively stronger. It has superior specs and resolution and is capable of ray tracing, all while matching the Steam Deck in terms of framerate. Visually, games look absolutely stunning on the Legion Go thanks to the 144Hz refresh rate and QHD+ screen, though the Deck’s OLED is a nice boost from the original.
I tested two titles on both portables, Cyberpunk 2077 and Forza Horizon 5, to see how each fared. With Forza Horizon 5, the Legion Go had ray tracing enabled on Medium settings and was able to match the Steam Deck with above 50fps.
When it came to Cyberpunk 2077, both systems on Medium and Low matched each other at around 26fps. When I enabled ray tracing on the Legion Go, the framerate dipped to 15fps but it was still able to run.
The Steam Deck does have a better OS. While Windows 11 on the Legion Go feels more natural and easier to navigate than the Asus ROG Ally, Steam’s OS is built specifically for the system, so it’s faster to start up and more intuitive to use.
Overall, I have to give the victory to the Legion Go, as games look and run much better on that portable.
Steam Deck vs Lenovo Legion Go: verdict
So which is the better PC gaming handheld? It depends on what you want from one.
The Steam Deck is still king for a reason, as it offers the best balance between portability, price, and performance. It’s well-rounded, allowing you to play the best PC games with an intuitive UI and decent battery power for its specs. If you’re just starting out with this kind of handheld, the Steam Deck is the easy choice.
The Lenovo Legion Go is heavier and larger but with better specs and display. Games look and run smoother, and can even handle ray tracing depending on the title. It also has more features that make it more flexible for various genres and gameplay styles. However, the pricing is a big downside and it has a slower UI thanks to Windows 11.

Current public perception of Microsoft within the console wars paints the Windows developer as a unique loser.
Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S sales comparisons to Sony’s peaking PlayStation hardware aside, it’s interesting to see how both gaming rivals approach PC gaming. Going as far back as the formation of their PC table, we’ve seen Sony trickle down first-party developed games from Horizon Zero Dawn to the current successful dual-platform release of Helldivers 2. It even makes sense for the PSVR2 to eventually add PCVR support as that platform has been notably dormant since launching last year.
Meanwhile, Microsoft has continued to make PC Gaming the core of its strategy once Game Pass hits PC in 2019. Between cross-play, cross-progression, cloud capabilities and respectable rotation of third-party games outside of first-party exclusives, the monthly subscription service has become a standard as the “Netflix for games.”
While Sony navigates their way through the PC gaming market, Microsoft has made Windows core to the Xbox’s brand DNA since the beginnings via Direct X. One could say that Xbox has been significantly more pro-consumer than Sony when it comes to gaming on desktops, laptops and the rise of handhelds more recently.
Where PC gaming handhelds fit within Microsoft’s strategy
As both rivals place various focuses on PC Gaming, hardware has evolved and changed following the release of both Nintendo’s Switch and Valve’s Steam Deck. Though Nintendo’s hybrid gaming console uses a proprietary operating system, its chipset comes from Nvidia.
On the other hand, the Steam Deck is an AMD chipset-based device that runs SteamOS but can be easily modified to run Windows. This allowed the user’s gaming library to be extended outside of Steam’s system to allow the usage of GamePass or other launchers like Epic Games.
The potential for Microsoft really opened following the release of Asus ROG Ally which came packed in with Windows 11. Through Gamepass, it’s the best way to play big-budget AAA titles like Forza Horizon 5, Starfield, Halo Infinite and the like on the go alongside Steam.
Sure, GamePass Ultimate does have a cloud service that allows users to stream games. However, playing games natively is the better way to go. When The Verge asked Xbox boss Phil Spencer about the possibility of an Xbox Handheld, he gave praise to Nintendo for the success of the Switch but called himself a big fan of the Ally and Legion Go. Most importantly, he said the company has to do “real work” when it comes to those handheld gaming PCs.
“One of the weak points in the experience on a ROG or the Lenovo [Legion Go] is Windows” Spencer said. “How Windows works on controller input only on that kind of DPI, on a smaller eight- or seven-inch screen. That’s a real design point that our platform team is working with Windows to make sure that the experience is even better.”
The interview was released around the much-talked-about Official Xbox Podcast. It came after many questioned the future of Xbox within the console hardware business.
During that time, Microsoft Gaming executives also announced that Game Pass hit 34 million subscribers. That number also includes Game Pass Core subscribers who make up old Xbox Live Gold customers. Those subscribers should grow as Microsoft releases new games through its first-party studio roster that’s grown significantly since acquiring Activision Blizzard.
With various YouTube videos demonstrating how to install Windows on the Steam Deck that are in the 50K plus view range, it’s clear Microsoft knows it has to be better in the space for the long-term sustainability of Game Pass.
