An Xbox handheld console is still a few years away, Xbox chief Phil Spencer told Bloomberg.
Spencer added that the company is working on prototypes but is primarily focused on improving the Xbox app on existing handhelds.

But when will Microsoft cut out the middleman and develop a dedicated Xbox handheld?

Well, Xbox chief Phil Spencer told Bloomberg (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-11-13/microsoft-s-gaming-chief-is-still-looking-for-acquisitions-sees-future-growth?accessToken=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6Ikp XVCJ9.eyJzb3VyY2UiOiJTdWJzY3JpYmVyR2lmdGVkQXJ0aWNs ZSIsImlhdCI6MTczMTQ5OTU0MSwiZXhwIjoxNzMyMTA0MzQxLC JhcnRpY2xlSWQiOiJTTVcxQ01UMEcxS1cwMCIsImJjb25uZWN0 SWQiOiJCMUVBQkI5NjQ2QUM0REZFQTJBRkI4MjI1MzgyQTJFQS J9.UjaVdB-1hJKO1VKY0-vUQaOjf2cpmUgGaLSXNqqYnHU) in a wide-ranging interview that the company was working on prototypes and thinking about its plans for the segment.
