Microsoft opens a US preview of the Xbox Nano’s direct cloud connection

Xbox says US players can now try connecting the Nano directly to the cloud server running a game, over Wi-Fi instead of Bluetooth to the TV. The direct connection may reduce input latency and make gameplay feel more responsive, but this is an early test and it doesn’t work with every cloud-gaming experience. For now, the preview is available on supported smart TVs and the web. Setup goes through the Xbox beta app on Android or Xbox Accessories on PC; anyone using the PC app needs to be enrolled in Xbox Insider.
