Its gonna be a niche product like Steam Deck or PSVR (or any VR matterfact).

It'll likely sell less units due to its limitation as just a streaming device.

Think of the "Cloud streaming" versions of Switch games - they are obviously the worst versions lol.

In the case of the Q your using your WIFI to stream your installed  PS5 games to the device and its up to 1080P 60fps which should look alright considering the screen size so while you are correct in that it is a niche product, there are differences between products that target the mainstream and need large numbers to succeed and those that are  targeted at a specific segment of the audience like the Q.

It seems to be targeted at PS5 gamers who like the idea of a PS5 small screen experience and not being tethered to the TV  being able to play their PS5 games in different rooms. now if Sony was after large scale adoption for the Q and tried to push the Q as a fully portable PS5 experience I would be shaking my head along with you and everybody else.
