It can be an android tv device replacement
Buy a $20 goose neck tablet mount, and now it’s a way to play streamed steam games or use the android tv jellyfin client to watch/play stuff without using the main TV
Bedside clock/radio with loads of extra features
Dedicated HomeAssistant remote
Or, the basic use case - Play emulated games on a neat handheld package with a decent screen on a plane or something, without needing to carry or buy another device.
