I've had exactly one problem using the built in remote play with Steam, and that was a bad update that was put out just a few months ago. I've got a few Bee Links with the 680m iGPU (I'm not home to check the model right now) so they were a few hundred bucks apiece which is a huge con for some folks. But that also allows me to play a variety of emulated games and games that aren't graphically intensive locally if someone is streaming from another room.

So if I have a friend with kids over, we can play BG3 couch co-op in the bedroom or garage while the kids play Mario Kart or Hollow Knight in the living room. That's worth it for me.

However, cheap Android TV devices work for a lot of people and I'll never knock them.
