What is the target audience for this product? I don't expect it can be used reasonably when travelling as it needs internet to work. Is it simply for when the TV is taken up by somebody else who really doesn't want to watch their movies or tv series on a laptop like children perhaps?
Mostly yes, it's for people who share a tv with others and don't want to monopolize the TV just because the playstation is connected to it.
Yesterday they probably just played nintendo switch, now they can also play playstation in those situations.
After sitting 8+ hours a day in front of a laptop, I hate sitting more, even if it’s on a couch in front of the TV. Portal gives me the flexibility to game from whichever room I want, lying on my back, or however I feel like. Truly a needless luxury product, but this allows me to turn 30 mins phone/tablet doomscrolling on my back into 30 mins of progress in one of the games I barely have time to play. Well worth the price for me (so far), and I don’t even have kids, where my freetime would be even more scarce and valuable.
Don’t understand too. I’m just using my iPhone pro max/MacBook Pro + PlayStation remote play + AirPods Pro and it works perfectly.
