Razer Edge Gaming Tablet Review: A full-blown PC trapped inside a tablet

Razer Edge Gaming Tablet Review: A full-blown PC trapped inside a tablet
  • Posted April 2, 2013, 1:30 PM by Mike Fahey | Filed in TechSpot, Hardware With Video
  • Like many PC gamers, I've often wished a machine capable of putting the power of a gaming rig in a portable device. Gaming laptops are lovely and have their place, but that place is often on top of a desk. After a week with Razer's new Edge gaming tablet, I realize what I really wanted was to play Bioshock Infinite in the bathroom without burning my thighs. All hail Razer, deliverer of dreams.

    Razer's only review guidelines before sending along a Razer Edge loaner was that I not tell them I used it in the bathroom. I am a review guideline freedom fighter, deep in the trenches, pants around my ankles, balancing a $1,499 gaming tablet on the side of the tub before redeploying to less secluded front. And why not? I don't have to stop playing until the batteries run out.
