After acquiring smartphone-maker Nextbit earlier this year, Razer – the gaming laptop and peripheral company – is slated to debut its first smartphone on November 1.

“The company has been teasing the announcement for a few weeks now and the device has also appeared on GFX Bench. Now, a picture shows that it appears to be a device very similar to the Nextbit Robin, but with a Razer logo on the back,” Android Headlines reported late on Sunday.

The smartphone will focus on gaming and given the Nextbit acquisition it may feature some cloud-based infrastructure too.
