This is a great asset for Dads that can’t sit in front of their TV. I gifted this to my brother in law with a set of Edge Pulse earbuds because sometimes he has to make sure the kid goes to sleep, which could take some time and away from his TV. Just make sure you have a solid Wi-Fi connection at home.

This thing gets used daily. Obviously can’t compare to sitting in front of a larger TV but it’s great if lounging on the couch, killing some time. We’ve taken it on vacation using remote connection. We have found this works well for the most part though games that require instant response may/may not have a seamless experience due to some network lag.

To get the best out of this device you need 2 things:
1. PS5 plugged into your router via Ethernet.
2. Good wifi signal.
In my experience, you can play most games at full speed without any issues. It's great for 3rd person action games, RPGs, platformers, etc. I assume twitchy online shooter games are less-good compared to just playing them on a console. But this is a streaming device, not a portable console.
The screen is nice and big - a big win if you're used to playing/streaming games on your phone.
The controller itself is basically all the same tech from the DualSense controller. Your hands might get uncomfortable after a long play session. Not sure if that's from the added weight of the device or the ergonomics of the device itself.
It takes USB-C and has a headphone port, which is more than you can say about most devices nowadays.
People like to compare this to handheld computers that cost much more and take much more work to set up PS5 streaming. This is a no-frills streaming device that works right out of the box. It doesn't promise to offer more than that.

Got this for someone as a gift and they love it. The only thing that is off putting is that in order for it to work well with no lag you have to have really really good WiFi. If you have amazing WiFi and a ps5 I would say to get this but if you don’t have $200 but want something like this the backbone works just as well.

I got this for travelling. The connection time varies depending on the network you have access to, but once it connects, you’re golden! The games available on the cloud for download and play are great as well. However I do wish they’d have more sports titles.
