As a reminder, the PlayStation Portal, or Project Q, is (according to leaks) based on Android. It doesn’t run the games itself, it merely streams them from your PS5 and your handheld then serves as a controller with its own display.
I’m wondering why anyone would prefer that over simply using a regular Android phone with a good controller and the PS Remote Play app?
Bigger screen than a regular android phone. Especially because your 6" 21:9 phone means a 16:9 picture on it will only take up ~5".
Also better controller. Those mounts for a phone on a regular Xbox/Playstation controller always make it too top-heavy since your phone has to be on top of the controller. And I love the idea of a full-sized controller over a Switch or even Steam Deck’s tiny buttons that just aren’t comfortable.
I’d probably only be interested if it lets you run actual Android stuff though. Have you seen the Logitech G Cloud gaming handheld? That one’s even more expensive, but it does run local games too.
I always think this is funny because that sums up /r/sbcgaming
