The pleasure is mine. Thank you for pushing the limits of streaming gaming, I'm excited for your next product and would love to have the possibility to use larger sticks! :)
@@Rahul-y6o8o Hey, you can but you have to be very mindful of the games you'll be able to play. 2D non-graphically demanding Android games will be playable, maybe some lite 3D too and some emulation and from as well up to approximately PS1 and N64 (some titles). All in all, it's a trial and error kind of approach but as long as you're not picky, yes, you'll always find something to play locally and natively on the ABXYLUTE.
Note: If you wish to use the abxylute with a more traditional Android interface (which will also allow multiple apps at once), it can be done by switching it to "tablet mode" in the settings.
Nice review. You're the only reviewer I know who shows game streaming video decoding latency. Would like to see upcoming reviews showing decoding latency as well.
Glad you liked that aspect, I'll keep it a thing to redo in the future. In case you care, it was 4-5 frames delay on a 60fps feed. It's probably too much for competitive play but leisure? It's definitely more than fine.
@@GameTechTalk 4-5 frames delay seems normal on a 60fps game. Or you mean another additional frame delay with the delay from native? Comparison of native and game streaming is also nice to see.
I don’t know why but I love the G Cloud at home and the abxylute when I’m on the go. I pre-ordered this for funnies and didn’t expect it to play some of what it can
I do wish they offered a "stick upgrade kit" or even a "Pro" model at this point. It's been a bit of time since it released by '"handheld standards". We'd be ready for a redesign I think. Because the abxylute did A LOT of things right! That screen? "Chef's kiss"
I'm sure if there ever was a study, there would be a logical reason as to why some like asymmetrical and others symmetrical. And if I'd put my money on something, it's how different people use different brain hemispheres. With that said, the asymmetrical definitely seems to have the upper hand on the general market. 🙁 I learned to appreciate both but I get how that bothers you, hopefully more companies will as well.
It's a nice versatile device and the price can't be beat. With that said, it is, for me personally, a handheld with polarizing qualities on both end of the spectrum but I do hope that they come out with a future version where they upgrade sticks and I'll be sold 110%. Cheers!
It's a great device, you just have to know exactly what you intend to do with it, the value certainly can be really really good! I've seen it discounted quite generously lately too!
...was a fine citizen. By night, Robinson Ruth Hernandez Jason Martinez Kenneth was a bartender, by day, an artist, quite specifically a painter. But it wasn't until...
Nice review but it not a full review you forget to mention does it have “button mapping” ALOT of reviewers of abxylute never ONCE mention it. So in the settings under “Labs” they should be a “Key mapping” the Logitect G Cloud has this feature it allows one to play games like CoD Mobile or Google play stores when the game doesn't have controller support. And a lot of reviewers always to seem to leave it out. Because if this was a feature than yeah 100% I’ll go with this. Than the Logitect G cloud. Because 1. it Looks Cool in terms of design and the pricing is amazing
Unfortunately, that device has since left my company as I sent it to another fellow creator. I think most reviewers don't talk about it due to how inconsistent native-Android gaming performance is with the chip. So we all focus on what abxylute themselves market the device for: "Streaming". With that said, I do remember a Labs tab but can't say I remember abxylute including a native screenmapping solution. Nonetheless, you are right and I'll seek to do better in the future. Thanks for pointing out a very important feature that should've been addressed, be it that it is missing or is present.
Not locally on the device as it's running Android, but if you mean from a PS5 or a PC, yes you can using Moonlight or Remote Play. Now if the question is: "should you?" I'd say no. The sticks are not ideal for shooter games, or even just to control the camera overall.
Does it have same "fps drops" android phones have ? I tried every possible setting on my phone but it looks like 30-40 fps while playing steady 60 fps on my pc, wired connection might i add + gigabit ethernet and wifi6 connection which my phone does support... Does same happen to you on and android phone ? I really fear it might happen... the steam deck for example doesnt even have wifi 6 on the lcd version which is the one i tested and i honestly cant tell a diference from native to local stream.
I'm leaning towards your FPS drop is not because of the device but something in your network rather, or the host device (PC, PS5, Series X/S, etc..). Now, I'm not saying the occasional dropped frame every 5 minute or so never happens, it does occasionally, but it's hardly a distraction. The way you make it sound, it's a lot worst. I realize it might sound like dumb suggestions but have you tried rebooting your router? Maybe check if you have a firmware update as well. I would've suggested a wifi frequency scanner for your phone to check if you have 5ghz interference but if you tried wired, then that's not the issue. Try to see if it's the same with cloud solutions as well? I've heard/seen GPUs where the encoding chip was defective and having constant hiccups, maybe that is what you are experiencing? Hopefully not... But to answer your immediate question, the abxylute does not perform better, nor worst than other equivalent or more capable devices like a phone or a tablet. The one difference is that the abxylute provides a well put together package. Also, while it is not exactly identical, you could think of MIMO to be like having wifi6 capabilities on wifi5, so if you have a wifi6 router and same on your phone, you shouldn't expect better from using the abxylute due to MIMO. I hope this helps!
@@GameTechTalk i tried wifi 6 and also 5ghz both presents same problem. But only on my phone, cloud gaming isnt as bad but still not perfect, and the reason i mention that is because the steam deck runs it basically native of how smooth and delay free it is. If steam deck runs it perfect then it isnt network related, what i wonder is if it offers same stream performance of a steam deck or my phone XD, maybe my phone just sucks at decoding idk, i just know that 60 fps looks like 30 on my phone with stutters or fps drops and on steam deck it felt smooth af. I really wanted to know since i sold my Steam deck to a friend due to only using it for local stream, so that device would be great if proper smooth 60fps. But in your experience at least, was playing at 60 fps looking like 60 fps ?
@@GameTechTalk just done some testing now, idk if u have an iPhone but if u do please tell me if the stream on abxylute is same as an iphone. I tested my phone and my fathers phone and both android, both snapdragon, not smooth gameplay and some stutters, tested my brothers and my mother phone one is iphone se, and the other is iphone 13, both incredibly smooth like the steam deck, no delay, no stutter and no "fps drops"
It might be the phone yeah, at least you got a host and network that works well. But yeah, when I stream from my local network, it plays and looks like 60. In fact, when using my phones or tablet, it feels 120fps when using panels that support such framerate. However, I have yet to see an encoder that supports a 4k120fps signal so I drop to 1440p@120fps and it works fine. 4k seems to cap at 100fps, it's a lot of bandwidth to encode.
@XxViperMortalxX That is so weird... I do actually, I have many phones and devices, comes with the career goals and ambitions. Right now with me, I have a Fold 4, a Redmagic 8 Pro and an iPhone 14 Pro Max. Got a few more but those are not charged. All of them worked absolutely fine using Moonlight to stream from both my PCs. One has a 3090, the other has a 4090 but to be perfectly honest. Even when I had series 1000 and 2000 GPUs that use the older NVENC, it was just fine. In fact, streaming was fine 9 years ago on my 970s using a Nvidia Geforce Shield. Like, it's almost always been as reliable as the Wii U gamepad, they broke it every now and then with some bad updates but it's been pretty reliable for years now.
My ABXYLUTE One arrived. My OneXplayer S1 is better for game streaming in every way. Full "fall on my knees" retraction of every damn comment I made and lesson learned for the old teacher. It's not a bad device but unless you're willing to make a lot of sacrifices such as game streaming at 720 (unless you want unforgivable stutter), NO vibration in Nvidia GeForce Now which is also unforgivable, really, really, really small analog sticks, a mediocre interface. The good is that I managed to get 16 systems emulated with a high degree of confidence whilst not running Retroarch for any of them. More complaints to come lad. 😮
Talking about OXP, I received the 1X Friday but I haven't opened it yet, I might try to do an unboxing/first hands-on. As for the ABXYLUTE One, the thing is it lacks so little to be so much more, as I'm sure you can also visualize for yourself. But, I believe they hinted at a new product in their finished crowdfunding campaign update they did less than a week ago. I hope they listen to feedback and are looking to make the slight changes that would make a future hardware revision that much superior. To give you an idea, I paid a Stadia subscription during the entire time and probably played a grand total of 2-3 hours, but was still happy to spend that monthly fee because I really wanted to support the product. I believe in cloud gaming even if I don't consume it as much, it gives opportunity to so many that otherwise might not... I love the idea of the ABXYLUTE, they just need to revisit certain aspects and it'll be a far more viable product. I salute your curiosity and openness in trying these devices first-hand. It has become such a passion for me over the years!
@@GameTechTalk Agreed and I'm also looking forward to the next product release from this company as hinted in an email I received yesterday from the company. Also, there's a firmware update for the Model one coming in April so we'll see what that revision brings in additional functionality.
No need to be sorry, I'm happy to assist. So local games, some you can get from the Play Store, some you may have to load external APKs, but if you're talking about AAA budget games, that's from tethering off of my PC/Xbox/PS5 using various remote play solutions.
@@lh7266 With pleasure, for apk sideloading, you'll have to google as I think dropping names would be against ToS. But also, for streaming the abxylute comes with just about everything you'd need already pre-installed, they really made it quite effortless to enjoy their device. Cheers! :)
@@lh7266 Sorry to say, I'm in the middle of a very aggressive crunch time, filming right now, just taking a break. Google is your friend, there are thousands of videos online on how to operate Android, it's very simple and much like a Windows PC. Sorry, I'm too tight on time, you got this!
Ok lad. I ordered and FINALLY received my addition molded grip "apparently designed" by Abxylute for use with the ABXYLUTE One. Very hard plastic designed moderately well EXCEPT for the the end user's complete inability to plug audio or power into the ABXYLUTE one while the grip is installed however the holes do exist for them on the grip but they're just not big enough to accommodate ANY audio or power accessory you may want to use with your console. In terms of it's additional comfort provided by the grip, sure, it kind of works but only with the additional analog caps which do improve overall analog stick control by a conservative 20 percent for FPS or Racing titles.
I wanted to get it but I ended up sending the unit I had to a friend in case he'd review it. By the sound of it, it looks like I avoided a "not so great" accessory... That's unfortunate, if anything, I've been lurking in abxylute's discord and they do seem to really be listening to their community, which gives me hope for their controller, they even acknowledged the sticks being not ideal when as small as on the abxylute One. Fingers crossed that their second time around, they'll really knock it out of the park! Unfortunately, I think it won't support more than 9" 16:9 tablets but nonetheless, I'm excited for it.
@@GameTechTalk The new controller sounds just about perfect for my Lenovo Y700. 8 inch happiness. Ok, that's not meant to be mixed messaging on my part. 😉👍🤭
Man idk why but the device lacks behind bad from my phone, gfn is so jittery at 1080 60fps, but phone can do 2k 120fps like a champ, the device just keeps jittering, not obly this but psplay i can max 50mbps bitrate on my phone and its immaculate, but the abyxlute lags at 50mbps big time, really wish this wssnt an issue as i love the form factor
Could it be that you have GFN highest subscription tier? The one that unlock 4000 series GPUs? Cause if so, I'd reckon Nvidia sends a signal that is higher than 1080 60fps and that means that the abxylute needs to work harder to decode the signal. Usually, it's no big deal for most devices but the chip powering the abxylute is quite weak. The other thing is, the higher tier of GFN also supports 120fps if I'm not mistaken so that's another big deal in terms of decoding. I'm pretty sure you can set it in your GFN to limit to 1080p 60fps but that would also mean lesser quality for other devices you use GFN with.
@GameTechTalk oh my gosh, you sir are a genius... I lowered the Mbps down from 75mbps to 34 which is default it gave me at 1080/60 the results were so much better but not perfect, I lowered it down to 18mbps which I believe the requirement is 16mbps to adequately stream the bitrate of 1080/60 and would you guess no more stutters, packet loss or lag! Looks like you're entirely right, the device just can't handle the high bitrate decoding, seems even more legit as in psplay I can force 50000bitrate on my phone and it looks 100% like its mot even streaming, near 0 latency, but if I do the same on the abyxlute it's a stuttering mess! Thank you so much, even though this has fixed it I think I'll be getting a tablet for 120fps and 2k rez!

@GameTechTalk you've most certainly helped heaps! I was constantly scratching my head this past week thinking there's an wifi issue despite my decent speeds! Absolute legend, keep up the good work brother!
Thank you for the great review and your recommendations. A bummer about the joy sticks, as that’s what’s helped me make my decision. As someone who only has a PS5 I’m currently weighing between the portal and g cloud just in case I do branch out. Unfortunately, the G cloud isn’t sold in my country but something to keep in mind. Thanks again!
Glad I could help! Something like the RG556 might be a much better alternative. The screen is smaller and it'll run you a bit more expensive but it is infinitely a far superior device. Not that the ABXYLUTE is not decent in its own right but we're looking at tremendously more power to play natively, an AMOLED panel and overall very decent ergonomics and components for like 70USD more. Cheers!
@@GameTechTalk Thank you, I appreciate the recommendation! This has opened me up to a whole world of handheld gaming that I never even knew existed. I'm from a relatively small market so I've never even heard of most of the handheld devices on the US market. I'm surprised, and honestly, overwhelmed with all the options so your recommendation goes a long way, thanks! My only concern is the screen size. I'm currently borrowing a PS Portal from a friend, and really enjoy the screen size.
@@kingdumb9692 It's definitely a rabbit hole if you let it ahahahaa! Lots of options for sure, if you like the 7" form factor, a small tablet with a Galileo G8 would also be a very robust contender. If ever you have questions, please don't hesitate, I love to help! Oh and welcome to the handheld space! :)
Hey @Twoxerofour , yeah you would. Unless you use a service that boots the game for you on their local PC such as Geforce Now or Shadow and then you stream online. Tks for engaging! :)
That alone would've made a world of difference. I'm hoping they are already in the process of redesigning a new model. Honestly, they only need to change that, everything else is fine as it is and I would buy it over again. Thanks for engaging! :)
@@GameTechTalk I am looking for something to Steam Link game besides using my phone and PS4 controller with mount but I have not found anything that will work as well. Samsung S22 Plus.
You can, as it runs on Android, most peripherals supported by the OS will work. As controllers do not require special hardware, yes, they work just fine on the abxylute.
Before I answer, let me ask you this young lad. What is the sole purpose for this device to exist and this is not a trick question. Rather than bias, grossly disingenuous would be more a apt description of your review.
The sole purpose is streaming. Now can I understand in what way you find this video to be grossly disingenuous? Do you feel that I should've praised the device more? That I was too harsh with it? Edit: My apologies then as I did not mean to come across as disingenuous. Our opinions may differ certainly, but I assume the best out of people, surely you wouldn't judge this content based off of the fact that we may think differently of a device. I don't know what I did to offend you, but I practice sonder and with that, I have to receive your experience and consider it. Now to provide you with mine, I try my best to fit in this online community, to offer something valuable and meaningful. Obviously, you did not interpret my work as such but thankfully, there are many creators out there that will give you exactly what you are looking for, my content simply is not it.

I wanted to get it but I ended up sending the unit I had to a friend in case he'd review it. By the sound of it, it looks like I avoided a "not so great" accessory... That's unfortunate, if anything, I've been lurking in abxylute's discord and they do seem to really be listening to their community, which gives me hope for their controller, they even acknowledged the sticks being not ideal when as small as on the abxylute One.
Fingers crossed that their second time around, they'll really knock it out of the park! Unfortunately, I think it won't support more than 9" 16:9 tablets but nonetheless, I'm excited for it.
@@GameTechTalk The new controller sounds just about perfect for my Lenovo Y700. 8 inch happiness. Ok, that's not meant to be mixed messaging on my part. 😉👍🤭
Man idk why but the device lacks behind bad from my phone, gfn is so jittery at 1080 60fps, but phone can do 2k 120fps like a champ, the device just keeps jittering, not obly this but psplay i can max 50mbps bitrate on my phone and its immaculate, but the abyxlute lags at 50mbps big time, really wish this wssnt an issue as i love the form factor
Could it be that you have GFN highest subscription tier? The one that unlock 4000 series GPUs? Cause if so, I'd reckon Nvidia sends a signal that is higher than 1080 60fps and that means that the abxylute needs to work harder to decode the signal. Usually, it's no big deal for most devices but the chip powering the abxylute is quite weak. The other thing is, the higher tier of GFN also supports 120fps if I'm not mistaken so that's another big deal in terms of decoding.
I'm pretty sure you can set it in your GFN to limit to 1080p 60fps but that would also mean lesser quality for other devices you use GFN with.
@GameTechTalk oh my gosh, you sir are a genius... I lowered the Mbps down from 75mbps to 34 which is default it gave me at 1080/60 the results were so much better but not perfect, I lowered it down to 18mbps which I believe the requirement is 16mbps to adequately stream the bitrate of 1080/60 and would you guess no more stutters, packet loss or lag! Looks like you're entirely right, the device just can't handle the high bitrate decoding, seems even more legit as in psplay I can force 50000bitrate on my phone and it looks 100% like its mot even streaming, near 0 latency, but if I do the same on the abyxlute it's a stuttering mess!
Thank you so much, even though this has fixed it I think I'll be getting a tablet for 120fps and 2k rez!
This makes me way happier than you'd know. My motivation to start this channel was helping people make informed buying decisions for their gaming needs. So any way I can help, it gives me purpose and validation. Thank you greatly! :) @@reececozaa9328
@GameTechTalk you've most certainly helped heaps! I was constantly scratching my head this past week thinking there's an wifi issue despite my decent speeds! Absolute legend, keep up the good work brother!
Thank you for the great review and your recommendations. A bummer about the joy sticks, as that’s what’s helped me make my decision.
As someone who only has a PS5 I’m currently weighing between the portal and g cloud just in case I do branch out. Unfortunately, the G cloud isn’t sold in my country but something to keep in mind. Thanks again!
Glad I could help! Something like the RG556 might be a much better alternative. The screen is smaller and it'll run you a bit more expensive but it is infinitely a far superior device. Not that the ABXYLUTE is not decent in its own right but we're looking at tremendously more power to play natively, an AMOLED panel and overall very decent ergonomics and components for like 70USD more. Cheers!
@@GameTechTalk Thank you, I appreciate the recommendation!
This has opened me up to a whole world of handheld gaming that I never even knew existed. I'm from a relatively small market so I've never even heard of most of the handheld devices on the US market. I'm surprised, and honestly, overwhelmed with all the options so your recommendation goes a long way, thanks!
My only concern is the screen size. I'm currently borrowing a PS Portal from a friend, and really enjoy the screen size.
@@kingdumb9692 It's definitely a rabbit hole if you let it ahahahaa! Lots of options for sure, if you like the 7" form factor, a small tablet with a Galileo G8 would also be a very robust contender. If ever you have questions, please don't hesitate, I love to help! Oh and welcome to the handheld space! :)

Worcestershire sauce?
Can you play playstation five games on it.
You can stream your Playstation 5 to your abxylute, so in that sense yes you can. If you mean natively on the device without being connected, no.
Does my pc have to be on to play my steam library?
Hey @Twoxerofour , yeah you would. Unless you use a service that boots the game for you on their local PC such as Geforce Now or Shadow and then you stream online. Tks for engaging! :)
@@GameTechTalk thank you very much for the response 👍🍻

If this had the full sized sticks I would 100% get this.
That alone would've made a world of difference. I'm hoping they are already in the process of redesigning a new model. Honestly, they only need to change that, everything else is fine as it is and I would buy it over again. Thanks for engaging! :)
@@GameTechTalk I am looking for something to Steam Link game besides using my phone and PS4 controller with mount but I have not found anything that will work as well. Samsung S22 Plus.
Indeed... Sir...
Happy New Year... 2024
Thank you, likewise to you Gregory!
Can you use a controller with these??
You can, as it runs on Android, most peripherals supported by the OS will work. As controllers do not require special hardware, yes, they work just fine on the abxylute.
Yes you can I’ve used mine with it a few times
100th like 😀
Legend!
Ridiculously biased review.
I respect your opinion just as I respect mine, I'd be curious to have you elaborate why you think it is biased. Thanks
Before I answer, let me ask you this young lad. What is the sole purpose for this device to exist and this is not a trick question. Rather than bias, grossly disingenuous would be more a apt description of your review.
@@GameTechTalk And I'm Canadian as well so I do "civil" without issue.
The sole purpose is streaming. Now can I understand in what way you find this video to be grossly disingenuous? Do you feel that I should've praised the device more? That I was too harsh with it?
Edit: My apologies then as I did not mean to come across as disingenuous. Our opinions may differ certainly, but I assume the best out of people, surely you wouldn't judge this content based off of the fact that we may think differently of a device. I don't know what I did to offend you, but I practice sonder and with that, I have to receive your experience and consider it.
Now to provide you with mine, I try my best to fit in this online community, to offer something valuable and meaningful. Obviously, you did not interpret my work as such but thankfully, there are many creators out there that will give you exactly what you are looking for, my content simply is not it.
I wish you all the best, from another Canadian.@@STR82DVD
@@GameTechTalk You've certainly presented your argument for fairness and transparency in your channel. Here's the thing, would you review a hammer on the merits of being a poor screwdriver?
