That fact that it can't even play direct from the PS+ cloud gaming service shows what a half-baked device this is.

In order for me to be interested it would have to be able to stream games in from my PS5, PS+ cloud gaming, and my PC. Maybe add Xbox GamePass streaming as well.

Realistically it's going to have to come from a third party if it wants all that, at which point you might as well just have a controller grip for your phone.

I got a razer kishi for my phone and prevented me from getting a steam deck. If I didn't have a switch already the steam deck would have been awesome though

Steam Deck is revolutionary compared to a phone with a controller. You can actually play PC games without an internet connection…
