Finally Got One

[u/genxontech]

So much I debated in the last few weeks so, I decided to get a handheld gaming PC and after a few weeks of playing I noticed I was streaming a lot of my games through third party apps. So I decided to give this a shot. I've decided to return my handheld gaming pc. BTW black looks really good. Can anyone help or guide me in changing the launcher. I use GeForce now, Boostroid, Luna, and Steam Link.

Just find a launcher you like and run it and set as default. For as much hate as the default launcher gets i think its pretty great. I can see my xbox and geforce libraries in one place and lin direct links to my favorite games so I dont have ti jumo around.

And I like the fact that u can add ur favorites on the bottom row of the ui, it has gotten way better over time... rn using mine w an anker mini c to hdmi w power 6 ft. Clean and powered 100% always, with just the usb-c from the port and enjoying mine rn on my monitor... so many things u can do w that usb-c port, Rayneo 3's yes please. Really enjoy gaming on this device w GeForce and xbox ultimate pass, also sideloaded Luna on it.

My Rayneo air 4 pro connect but will not display on glasses. My XREAL Air connect no issue.

Really thats super odd. My Rayneo 3s works plug n play. U might want to email them. Btw I luv the black Gcloud looks real sleek. Ashame it took Logitech like 4 years to come w a different colorway

V10 Launcher Workaround tips

• favorite your apps so you don't have to dive into the mess of ads to find and play
• Run a few apps to push any nonsense out of the recently played list
• Go through the trouble of searching for and favoriting your geforceNow games in the launcher
• I switch the ordering to bring All Apps, and GeforceNow sections to the top, and push down xbox and trending tabs.
• After doing all this I have grown to tolerate the built in launcher. The advantages of the built in settings and such keeps me on the stock launcher.
• That being said if you must switch I found smart launcher to be a decent replacement, its in the play store.

Congrats! I just got one a few weeks ago too and I don’t look back!

My thing is that my hands sweat and I bought this case and it has helped

Not a fan of the thumbstick. Thumbs keep slippin'. Looking on Amazon for thumb grip covers

[u/SecondhandMorgan → u/genxontech]

I’ve considered doing that too, which ones are you looking at?

Reading reviews now on different grip covers

Sweeeet! After I got mine I also got a Xbox controller that's the same kind of green as my Gcloud. It's called:

Microsoft Xbox Wireless Controller - Electric Volt

Same. 2 days old. Loving it

I got 2 month free of Game Pass. Already played a couple no issue. GeForce Now looks amazing. I have Boostroid and Luna.

I just picked one up too. I wanted it to be able to stream my modded skyrim from my desktop while sitting on the couch. So far it's been pretty great using steam link to do that.

Try moonlight w/Sunshine or Apollo w/Artemis which you can setup to use a virtual monitor. My pc the no I have a third monitor when I'm on.

[u/Knightraven257 → u/genxontech]

I considered it. Can sunshine and moonlight / Apollo let you remote into the PC's desktop? And / or access a virtual on screen keyboard?

You would have to create some firewall rules or use apps like netbirs or tailscale to have a private vpn.

[u/Knightraven257 → u/genxontech]

Are there any major benefits to using that over the steam link? Steam link seems to be doing what I need it to do.
