I tried the TECNO Pocket Go and discovered a whole new portable way to game
 

The PC gaming handheld market has really taken off since the Steam Deck and ASUS ROG Ally first showed up. Now we’ve got Lenovo Legion, MSI, and other brands all throwing their hats in the ring with their own approaches to portable PC gaming. The underlying concept is straightforward: jam a PC chip, a screen, speakers, and gamepad controls into a handheld device you can throw in your backpack, so you can have all the power you need to run your favorite PC games right in your hands.

Of course, the design has to stay fairly portable, and that’s where you start hitting trade-offs. Along comes the TECNO Pocket Go, an “AR” handheld and glasses combo that dares to rethink the entire formula. I’ve spent a few days playing around with it, and the Pocket Go is definitely asking the kinds of questions that could shape the future of these gaming handheld devices, even though the answers it provides to those questions aren’t on point yet.
