So... could someone explain to me what makes this better than just using the Remote Play app on whatever device you want? That has existed for years and has always worked great.

Probably not much, especially if you already like the controller. I have a crap controller that I use with my phone, so it would probably be an upgrade over that... but even so, I’d rather just buy a better controller.

Yeah... Even then, it basically just uses a PS5 controller with a tablet in between it. If someone likes the controller here, they can use literally any other PS5 controller. They can't even use the argument that it's more portable when it's a hefty 8" tablet lol. What a strange device...

Much larger screen - 8”. Has the haptics of the Dual Sense. Less clunky than trying to connect a controller to your phone. Won’t have phone notifications interrupting your gaming/covering any portion of the screen. Lots of things. This will be a much more comfortable experience overall. I use remote play around the house on the Logitech G Cloud all the time and it is great.
