The ultimate aim of bringing PC gaming to everywhere has come true with the new Razer Edge. It's a hybrid mix of tablet/laptop and features a unique gaming controller.

The new Razer Edge is a Windows 8 enabled tablet having PC gaming guts. A dedicated graphics card, i7 processor, 256GB SSD hard disk and 8GB RAM is all required to convert this Edge into a 10.1-inch handy gaming console.
 

Talking about its design, the Edge is a thick tablet packed in a plastic and aluminum case, giving you the comfortable feeling while holding it. Even though it has a matte finish and a curved back rim, it's still too heavy. The gamepad controller made of anodized black aluminum, alone weighs 2 pounds and when attached to the tablet, it weighs up to 4 pounds, which makes it quite difficult to hold and play games. The gamepad has two large bars on both the sides with Xbox controls framing the tablet during landscape mode, adding joypad like functionality to the tablet and you don't have to even tap your fingers on the screen. Even though it's a Windows 8 enabled tablet, you can attach an external keyboard to it and can use it as a laptop. The last interesting mode of the new Razer Edge is a dock that allows you to connect this tablet to a bigger display, game controllers, keyboard and mouse using the USB ports at the rear side of the dock.

The gamepad controller uses Xinput tech, which means that all the PC games that works with an Xbox controller can be played using this gamepad controller on a Razer Edge tablet. The only issue attached is the combined weight of the controller and tablet, which makes it difficult for you to hold it and play. Even the battery life is not too great, which is a disappointing factor for such mobile and handy gaming device. To use the Edge tablet as a console, you need to purchase a Console Dock, which supports an HDMI port, 3 USB ports and charges the tablet. Using this dock, you can pair Windows 8 to a big display and by plugging in controllers in available USB ports, you are all set to experience PC gaming at better display.

While using the Razer Edge as a tablet, you won't find it satisfying because of its heavy weight. Even though it has better graphics quality but the fact is that PC games are not optimized for touch option and gamepad controller will be required for playing PC games. Even though the traditional laptop case for this Razer Edge tablet isn't out yet, using a 10.6-inch tablet as a computer screen is not a great idea, especially when you have already experienced bigger screen sized laptops.

Overall, it's a great piece of gaming gadget designed by the Razer. With so many in-built features and additional supports, the Razer Edge tablet is a must to go for. But when we look at its heavy weight issue along with its whopping price tag, we really doubt - How this PC gaming enabled tablet will set its place in the competitive market.
