Despite being remote play only, the PlayStation Portal ended up being a surprise hit thanks to how convenient it was to use and how comfortable it was to hold. As someone who’s tried over half a dozen of the best mobile game controllers — from the Razer Kishi to the Backbone Pro — I can definitely see why. But what if PlayStation isn’t your platform of choice?
Instead of reinventing the wheel with the PlayStation Portal, Sony essentially cut its DualSense controller in half and put an 8-inch screen in the middle. This way, you got the same larger handles PS5 players were already used to without having to adapt to something smaller and ultimately less comfortable.
