There are a couple ways to use it:
If you have a PS5, you can "remote play" (stream games from your PS5 to it -- n your home, at work, etc..)
If you don't want to use a PS5, you can Stream from the internet if you have a PS+ subscription (some of these are PS1 games, some are modern games). No PS5 required, it runs off the 'cloud' and streams to your portal in real time letting you play games from the internet.
There is no built in storage, so no MP3 Player, Browser, games.. it's essentially useless if there is no internet connection.
It's an interesting device. I don't get any lag at all with it. The fact it can run play PS5 games is a big advantage over being stuck to portable-games powered by the handheld itself. I use it at my desk when I work (from home) to do little things like grind in games between tasks.. It's also useful if you want to play a game but someone else is using the TV (if that's an issue) or if you just want to keep your game going while taking a dump.
With that said, where it kind of fumbles are if you have a poor internet connection it can lag.. and for most big PS5 games, you'll want to play them on a big TV with a sound system and not a 7" streaming device. I wouldn't want to play "The last of us 3" on this, but I wouldn't mind playing Tetris or re-playing The Last of Us on it for a 5th time.

I still stare at my Vita sitting in front of my 3D PlayStation monitor the past several years from time to time.
I charged it the other day and piddled around on NFS for a bit to get me sleepy enough to go to bed. Forgot I had a password on it.
