Size is the least of the problems…
I can already do what it does on my Steam Deck, Android tablet, and phone.
With no games of its own, what even is the point?
I’m getting this and I have a steam deck. For me I don’t ever remote play the PS exclusives on the deck because 720p does them such a disservice. Larger screen, higher Res, and full featured dual sense will be great for me. Especially since I share the main TV with the kiddo and the wife all day long.
This is definitely not for everyone, but for those of us who it works for, I think it’ll work really well.
I admit I’m pretty intrigued, but I wonder how the battery life will hold up under the dualsense features, what level of risk stick-drift is, and if the colors of the LCD are decent.
Can I by an Android tablet with the same quality screen for $199?
8" and 1080p resolution?
Let’s see here…
10.5" at 1080p, $190:
SAMSUNG Galaxy Tab A8 10.5"(32GB, 3GB) Full HD, Fingerprint Secure, All-Day Battery, Android 11 Wi-Fi Tablet, US Model SM-X200 (w/ 64GB SD, Gray)

Too large for a controller mount and 16:10. Is that just an old model? Android 11 is a couple years old no?
Might be a few years old, but the goal was to come in under the $200 price tag of Sony’s unit. ;)
I meant more than it just being a 1080p screen though. The iPad is too heavy / cumbersome to attach to a controller mount and phones are too small. This product seems to fit nicely.
Plus the need for an internet connection to really do anything.
It really seems like Sony was thinking “we’ve got to get into handhelds at all costs” and completely missed what made handhelds desireable
Does it really need an Internet connection? Wifi I get because it has to see the PS5 SOMEHOW.
