The thing that bugs me the most is it's not even purpose built "well".

It doesn't directly connect to the PS5 console while at home to guarantee a stutter free high resolution feed video (ex: Wii U gamepad did it 10 years ago, no wifi required) and instead relies on your home wifi network which can be bad/flaky regardless of your ISP or even router. With PLENTY of online complaints from users wasting countless hours unable to get a smooth streaming experience.
It doesn't have WiFi 6 which is wild for a dedicated streaming device.
It's streaming quality is no better than if you used your phone or laptop. In fact, Portal quality is often worse if you use Chiaki on mobile/PC. (I don't understand how some internet randos know networking and decoding better than Sony)
At $130 though? I think it's definitely worth a shot to see how quality is on your home network. Albeit I'm shocked how many owners gloss over these issues.

Yeah but that would tie up the phone / laptop / tablet and use their battery. And you have to putz around with controller pairing. And bringing two things with you.

I get what you're saying but this is more purpose built vs your solution.

I love mine. Bad info from people who know nothing about it. You are getting a full PS5 controller with feedback, rumble, ext. Stream your console anywhere with good wifi (best at home of course), no ps+ needed. Stream games with ps+ from cloud (no ps5 needed). No need for phone attachments and eating phone batteries. For $200, it has resulted in more gameplay for me, and overall statistics provided by Sony support this as well.

If you have total, it covers up to two years on it (if that provides any peace of mind).

Does anyone know if these come with a full manufacturer warranty otherwise when they're open box?

Seems like a fair price, grabbed one to play with. I usually stream to my steam deck but the bigger screen, higher resolution, and haptics seem like a perk

Why would you spend $3 less for worse condition?

Maybe the other one isn't available near them, or they want to pinch pennies.

Sometimes its not even worse condition. You could put excellent condition next to fair of the same item and not be able to tell why they labeled it that way. Also availability vs distance.

The most useless device of all time. Literally any smartphone using remote play or pxplay can do what this does. As can any laptop or tablet. And you could just buy some joysticks or use Bluetooth controller for 1/4 the price.

No clue, I'm thinking it's in a random brown box.

Also, this was the only one at my store listed online.

That's not true unless you want to play multiplayer games on it..
