If you ask me, the fact that it requires a PS5 makes it a non starter. I was really hoping for a standalone handheld, maybe not as powerful as the PS5, but something to compete with the Switch and Steam Deck. Like the PSP was a less powerful PS2 but still a standalone handheld providing a console like experience. Or even a phone handheld, the N-Gage was ahead of its time!
This device would benefit greatly if it had 5G service compatibility, just thinking if it had that I could use it on my long commutes on the train. But with WiFi only definitely makes it a no-buy for me. Which is a shame, I loved the Vita and wished Sony would being out a true new handheld!
