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

Does anyone know if these come with a full manufacturer warranty otherwise when they're open box?
Just use any smart device and use moonlight
Would have sold way better if Sony didn't Sony this like all of their past products... (ie: Allow App Store, Android apps, browsers, other cloud gaming services, and let you connect any bluetooth items that you want to.)

I also have one of those Backbone iPhone things for PlayStation. I prefer the Portal over it because the screen is so big. I only bought the Backbone because it was $30 and had a $25 PlayStation card at Costco. It rarely gets used.

Useless... unless you can use it in the way it's designed and intended? Neat input!
Some claimed that you can install emulators on it
