Just FYI in case any haters come in, the recent firmware update added the ability to stream select games directly from the cloud if you have PS+ Premium and also fixed Remote Play streaming issues. It feels borderline native at almost all times now, even with my PS5 connected to WiFi. Well worth the $150 price!

Bigger screen, haptic feedback, DualSense features, cloud streaming. A quick google would tell you this.

The fact that you can play Xbox and Steam is irrelevant. This device is a dedicated device to remote play your PlayStation 5. It's very simple. Is everything you own multi-use? Do you use your shower towels to wipe your ass? Your hand soap to clean your hair?

Quote from TheBaumSquad :
Same happened to me. I suspect that we got on the chat starting right before they closed Chat for the night, so by the time they went to get approval for the bigger than normal price adjustment, those folks that approve it were closed up too, and so they did what they could, and said we can adjust tomorrow (assuming that the price doesn't go up tomorrow at Brandsmart)

Either way, they gave me a discount down to $169.99 which is still a good starter discount, and a promise that I can adjust it the rest of the way post purchase tomorrow when they are available.

Here's the exact verbiage on that chat:

Customer Care agent: XXXX, as this price match is eligible for $149.99 which is below than the allowed discount value for his product, we are unable to adjust the price for $149.99.

Customer Care agent: However, no worries, I can adjust the price for $169.99 now and once the order is placed our post purchase team will help you with the refund of the remaining $20.

I was originally told to chat back tomorrow with the case ID for the price match. But according to this thread, some reps are able to PM now. Instead of waiting till tomorrow, I started a new chat and the new rep was able to issue the credit.

For those who already ordered on BestBuy. You should be able to login into BestBuy. Go to Purchases. Click on See Details under the purchase you are wanting to price match. Click on Return Options. And then select I Found A Cheaper Price under the Reason for Return drop down box. And proceed from there. Never done this myself. As I've always either done it in store at Customer Service or through Chat on the website.

Why does this product feel like it's trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist?
What do you mean? It's a great product for playing ps5 on the go or even just in house when you don't have access to the TV. It solved pretty big problem I would say.

Best Buy rep said they would price match and had me buy it only to say afterwards that the appropriate "team" that could give me the adjustment wasn't available until tomorrow morning at 9:00am. Seems fishy, but she assured me I'd get the adjustment and I have a case number. We'll see in the morning, I suppose!

Great price, thanks OP.
I had a same exact experience with BB chat and received my refund adjustment before I posted this deal. Glad you were able to snag one! Enjoy it!

It does everything your phone does with the PS app, but better. Not that hard to understand
How is that not hard to understand? How is it doing it better? I have a pixel 9 fold and a controller that it mounts to. Is there any way in which this is better than that?

I can also play Xbox and steam games with this setup. so again, I'm just asking if this is a device that actually solves a problem, or is totally unnecessary. you did not give an answer. please give one.

For someone with kids this absolutely solves a real problem lol my kids dominate the TV with kid shows almost all the time, so playing ps5 on the TV is a thing of the past, but now I can enjoy it on the couch while the kids watch their shows. For parents it's definitely amazing
This is the perfect pitch for buying this device and it's the main reason I begrudgingly bought it a couple of hours ago.

No you can't. Phone is a smaller screen and you need to carry a controller to be able to play, not to mention now you can't use the phone. Who wants to deal with all that when I can just easily use one device to play like a proper handheld?

Yup. I did the same thing. I just had to place the order, then immediately hopped into chat. They price matched, issued the difference as a refund, and I'll be picking up my Portal on my way home from work on Monday. Easy peasy.

There are plenty of controllers that hold cell phones, and even mounts for Xbox controllers to hold your cell phone. Also, there are plenty of cell phones bigger, such as the folding phones. Regardless, even if it's a smaller screen, is it really worth $150 to pay for a and extra device that is bulky just to stream something you already have and be limited to a singular platform?

Also, the PSP can stream still.
