      You can buy a $15 phone clip to attach your phone to your controller, and enjoy remote play that way.

          You can connect the phone via USB-C to any hdmi display.

          I use it often to stream games from my PC to a different room

              It is if you get a tablet with a case that can prop it up and then use a wireless controller. You’re being inflexible, there are options out there other than a portal. My Lenovo tablet was 99 pounds brand new and a case came with it to prop it.

                  You’re right, they aren’t comparable. If you get a tablet you can basically use it as a computer as well as for streaming games within your own house.

                  Don’t worry, I get what you mean. They’re really nit comparable. When you have to do a bunch of extra things to compete, you’re not really competing.

      I think the Logitech G Cloud would fit in that category, when on sale (otherwise it’s $350 USD, so at that point you might as well get the 64G Deck).
      Afaict it’s $250 USD with a promo code now and since it’s basically a tweaked Android ROM, you can stream Game pass, your PS4/PS5 (via PS Play) or Geforce Now and even do some light emulation (up to DC just fine).
      Ergonomics and screen are pretty great from what I recall, after testing one a few months ago.

          That was on Logitech’s website and after adding it to the cart, no idea about Amazon.
          It might not look the part, but I’m talking from experience and it was just a notch below the Deck’s ergonomics tbh.
          I think that’s debatable, as many still prefer the Xbox controller design and layout, but I’m biased towards the Dual Sense (as well?), sure.
          And please, for the love of every other real handheld that came before it, don’t abbreviate it as PSP…

              I would debate it. The xbox controller puts the sticks in the thumbs natural resting position, whereas the PS requires some thumb or grip repositioning.

              Granted the latest dualsense are the most comfortable, but I always had issues with dualshocks.

                That’s entirely preference. There are just as many people who prefer the PS’s layout.

                There’s no comparison on function.

                    It doesn’t even have gyro, and that’s ancient at this point lol. Let alone the adaptive triggers that are entirely game changing or the way the vibration allows for extremely precise haptic feedback.

                    Many PS5 games are massively worse with any other controller.

          The PlayStation Portable was the best controller ever? I hope that is a typo because that horrible nubbin position gave me wrist problems for life.

            I still can’t get over how much of an obvious blunder it was to only have one analog stick on the PSP.

      Backbone One PlayStation Edition will make use of your existing phone screen.

        I actually have a backbone gathering dust. I think it might have seen more use if I wasn’t using an iPhone mini with a tiny screen and bad battery.
