I'm just curious about how much time it lasts, for lighter setups it could be a replacement for Atomos monitors since they get really heavy with NP batteries.
For bigger rigs it can be charged by USB-C (powerbank or these new SmallRig V50/99 batteries). Seems interesting

So whats needed on the reciver side, a Sony decoder?

Looks like a device from 00s. By now a SIM card should be inside a camera, not in an external huge 2kb box.

What bitrate and resolution does it support?

Those who write comments "My phone can do all this" are students, or at best enthusiasts.
When you need to make a reliable stream lasting several hours over 5G while on set, you won't pull out your personal phone and connect 1000+ dongles.

That looks like it could be great monitor! I wonder what the brightness is.

Ill take it, no one stocks it yet but supposedly its 1099 usd andu need a 3 grand decoder to use it. But you can use talkback and tally as well as ccu feature's but whats cool is it can be dual charged ao it never goes dead

can not bonding internet connections? just use a phone then and install speedify.

[kutiz]

This could be a phone with elaborate HUB dongle lol

[XuJin]

It looks like Xperia V, so Can I use it as a Mobile-Phone also? Lots of Sony Camera Users need that .
