I remote play on my phone with a backbone sometimes. The problem is remote play itself. I’ve got pretty good wifi in here and in high intensity gameplay it stutters and resolution drops so it can cope. And thats at home. If actually consider this thing if it did rock solid remote play. But remote play doesn’t work like that. Not even close.

Vita battery life is insane, and you can leave the thing in sleep mode for like two weeks before it starts to run low

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?
If I'm already at home, with a PS5, why would I need this? just for 5 minutes when I'm taking a dump ?

Get 5ghz wifi. Than it works fine.
This device is for in home remote play only. So it must use direct ps5 connection otherwise you could remote play from any where. As i understand this device is not for remote play over the internet. It must be way better than phone + controller for Sony to go ahead with it. Even direct controller connection to ps5 reduces latency. We will se.

thinks Halo Infinite is a new graphical benchmark
If they’re going to follow Nintendo go right behind them especially after years of doing homework and seeing switch a home and portable console ascend.

This device is a piece of shit... I wouldn't give 80 bucks for this.
Nooo... Sony should have released the PSP 2 or PS Vita 2.... not this rubbish.

As of now, yes, Cloud gaming is not in any position to replace console gaming. ~3-5 years down the road, the market may start to shift. A device ready to go for that situation would be a good idea.

Under. This ranks up there with the PlayStation TV as a WTF are they thinking device.

I think you're being incredibly optimistic if you think this device will have a 3-5 year shelf-life.

It's just an accessory man. It's not a standalone device.

In this current form, absolutely. I don't see it surviving at all.
With PS+ integration, things might be different. But who knows honestly.

I might end up with one (probably when they hit clearance). That still does not mean it was a good decision or good design. IMO, for something like this they should have partnered with someone that already makes tablet devices. I believe this will be about as successful as the PlayStation TV. Not very.

What time is it?
Maybe you or your family member want to watch a movie or show and you'd like to continue playing a game or you want to play a game in another room away from your PS5.

This piece of shit will be on fire sale for like $100 within a year. But it's not even worth owning for that much or any amount really.

Well when using Vita it would be the first time when it lives up its own name - Vita means battery "life"

Two RnD workers on break in Sony HQ finished a co-op game, placed down their controllers then one of them drops their phone. It's the penicillin of handheld design.most likely the literal design process of that thing

It’s fine. Hasn’t been an issue for me at all.
I logged in, for the first time in almost 10 years, just to say this thing looks fuckin awful. I haven’t kept up with the industry for years but holy fuck this is one of the worst product announcements I’ve seen in a long time. Who the hell would buy this thing? It’s borderline pointless
What were they thinking? Why weren’t any execs responsible enough to speak up and say ‘we need to reevaluate the viability of the project’ ? What an obvious failure at the highest levels of SCE
I’d bet anything a bunch of Sony employees think it’s shit, knew it was shit from the get-go, and know it’ll be a waste.

Considering what this thing does, that sounds fine unless you take some really big shits or hate your spouse that much.

You probably should waited and have logged in after we get 100% details.

If it's over $150, certainly dead on arrival. Why even bother, focus on those resources on something else
