Yes that's the problem.
Yes, because Sony wants more of your money.
My guy we have had low latency Bluetooth standards for a long time. You are being duped by corporate propaganda. Do a Google for "AptX LL". I use Bluetooth headphones on my SteamDeck all the time with no observable latency.
Yes, I understand some people wanted it to do or be more, as I said I am not one of those people. I just wanted an awesome remote play device because I was tired of connecting my phone to various things just to get a weak facsimile of my PlayStation.
I won’t be mad if they update it to do more, but I’m certainly not knocking points off the thing simply because it isn’t a Swiss Army knife for gaming. I could use my SteamDeck for that.
And yet when I use it I do notice a tiny bit of latency, which is fine for the most part in nearly everything I play, but I’m not sure I’d want to play a rhythm based game on it.
I’m not alone in this either: Steam Desk - Bluetooth audio latency issues
You can see the solution in the first reply. The Steam Deck is not a ground-up gaming device, it's a handheld X86 PC, and that's great but also makes it harder to do a lot of the things people have come to expect from something like a Nintendo Switch, PlayStation or Xbox.
In short, this is not a limitation of Bluetooth itself, but rather of configuration, which should not be an issue on a single-purpose game streaming device.
Again I would encourage you to look up aptX LL, it's only 40ms of latency.
