CES 2015. Razer Forge - console on Android 5.0 for $ 100

CES 2015. Razer Forge - console on Android 5.0 for $ 100


Razer’s remained in the shadows at CES 2015 and showed a very interesting device to which you should pay attention to all lovers of games – an inexpensive console Razer Forge TV.


Information that Razer plans to release its own console, appeared in June, somewhere right after Google I / O. And it was not the rumors and confirmed information from the company itself. And in early 2015 a miracle happened – the world saw Razer Forge TV. In fact, it is not just the console on Android, and more, but more on that later, for now let’s learn specs.


$100 users get a small box measuring 105 x 105 x 17 mm, inside which there was a place for the Snapdragon platform 805 (quad-core Krait 450, 2.5 GHz), Adreno 420 graphics accelerator, 2 GB RAM, 16 GB of memory for storing data, Wi-Fi module and Bluetooth. From here there is a port connectors Ethernet, HDMI and USB 3.0. The most interesting – Android 5.0 is already “out of the box” (and this is for a device that costs $ 100, and your top-end smartphone another six months will work on 4.4.2).

But, as I said, the launch of games – not only purpose Razer Forge TV. How do you support the technology Cortex: Stream? If you do not know, it allows you to broadcast games with a standard PC. This opportunity was and Nvidia Shield, but there needed GeForce GTX 650 (at least). In the case of Razer will be enough GeForce GTX 580 or Radeon HD 5000. It supports Google Cast.

For the console itself company asks some $100, but if you’re willing to shell out 150, you get a set of Razer Forge TV and gamepad Serval (separately it costs $ 80). A true fan of Razer (and all games) will be interesting to be able to purchase separately (for $ 130) set Turret, which includes a keyboard and a special surface for the mouse.
