    I see a lot of comparisons to steam deck but none to Xbox.

    You can literally use any phone or tablet for the same function as this with an Xbox, in addition to cloud streaming most game pass games without needing an Xbox at all.

    If we saw Microsoft releasing an identical device I bet there wouldn’t be a single person defending it.

      You can also use any phone or tablet to remote play on PS5.

      What you’re buying here is convenience. A dedicated device with the exact same controller setup as an actual PS5, with the same features (haptics, triggers) and a nice screen with basically plug and play setup.

        The article doesn’t seem to mention what OS this has, but if the earlier leaks are correct and it’s android, you could even use this to do that very same Xbox streaming.
