However, it seems like that is about to change and Qualcomm is all ready to make the big jump. The American Chipmaker company is reportedly working on a new gaming console that can be very similar to the Nintendo Switch. 

The information was revealed by Android Police and they claimed that the console looked exactly like Nintendo Switch and would run on the Android operating system. The console is being manufactured by an unknown “premium supplier in the controller space. It will come with support like HDMI and will have a 6,000 mAh battery along with an SD card slot and 5G connectivity. Since it will be powered by a battery, it will come with Qualcomm’s Quick Charge technology.
