Remember when Android gaming was in its heyday? Back then, there were dozens of gaming phones and even specialized gaming tablets like the Nvidia Shield. After a while, the trend sort of died down a little, largely due to limitations with mobile gaming hardware.

What exactly is the Razer Edge and how is it different from the others?
