Handheld gaming has had a resurgence in the last few years, largely thanks to the Nintendo Switch; not to be left behind, Valve and Sony have got in on the portable action with their own portable offerings. The Steam Deck and PlayStation Portal aim to make gaming more convenient by letting you play your game library on the go. But how do they compare to one another?
In a way, it's a bit like comparing apples and oranges. Yes, both are handheld devices, but while the Steam Deck is a handheld console/mini gaming PC, the PlayStation Portal is a remote-play device - in other words, it's a PS5 streaming device and doesn't run games natively like the Switch or Steam Deck.
