Qualcomm may launch a new product that will surprise users.
According to a report, he would be working on a Nintendo Switch-style console, which could be released later this year. It is not clear if this product will be aimed at consumers or just be a prototype to encourage manufacturers to test new horizons with their products.
Qualcomm will be developing its own game console
According to a report shared by Android Police, Qualcomm is preparing a product similar to the Nintendo Switch to bring a new option in gaming devices to users.
Although they have not shared any image of the product or its prototype, they mention that it has removable controls that are attached to the central body of this device. A central module that looks like a mobile, but more robust.
Other data they mention is that it has a battery of about 6000 mAh with Quick Charge, running on Android 12 and the possibility of having a 5G connection. And of course, the star behind this product is one of the best Qualcomm CPUs considering the demands of this device.
Although the download of video games can be ensured through Google Play, it is not ruled out that users can turn to other popular video game stores, and perhaps they can even benefit from other platforms such as Google’s Stadia. And maybe even content from Qualcomm itself.
Continuing with the features, AP also mentions that it will support the ability to play games on any external monitor, and a slot to use an SD card to expand storage. According to the report, it is not posed as a direct competition to the Nintendo Switch.
It may not be a consumer-facing product either, only being developed as a prototype to inspire manufacturers to design new devices around their products. Qualcomm has not confirmed or denied this data, so we will have to wait to see if there are more details about this mysterious gaming device. If the leaks are right, and this product becomes a reality, we could see it by the end of 2021.
