I have a PS5 and have encountered burning ass and lower back pain sitting in pretty much any chair for more than 30 minutes. Does anyone here use a Portal? How well does it stream? Also, is it comfortable to hold in bed? I know the Switch 2 exists but I dont want to play toddler games.

You can just watch movies on a tablet, no need for this hunk of crap.

It has no reason to exist. If you have a phone (or some other android gaming device equivalent), you can just stream it there via PXPlay app, which comes with more customization to tailor your second screen experience.
Sony literally made a cheaply made overpriced Xperia tablet with two halves of a dualsense grafted to it with less functionality than a Wii U Gamepad, and it forces you to connect via Wi-Fi rather than remote connection directly to the console. It can't even function without internet + even emulating anything on it is pointless.

If you have great internet it can‘t be too bad. There‘s always gonna be input lag through streaming but according to reviews as long as the game is in performance mode the input lag is fine

Have you tried a back hyperextension program? There's this youtuber telling people we have weak backs and our injuries don't heal, because we're not training the muscles closest to our spines.

Like, just use your fucking phone with a controller peripheral. That's cheaper than this hunk of shit.

I dont know what to do at this point. This might be why handhelds are doing so well. As you age it seems like your body just becomes more antagonistic. Its fucking unbearable. Any chair burns my ass and i get lower back pain like my spine is coming out of place. How do people sit in chairs?

My brother had something similar because he sat in a chair at work all day and going to the gym and strengthening his back helped

With their butts. In some circles, they're known for having poop come out of them.

You can use remote play on your phone instead if you get a little fake joycon controller for it, or if you wanted to you can get a Steam Deck (or even a Retroid Pocket emulation handheld) and that could increase the amount of games you could play on top of being able to stream your ps5 games to it.

Literally cheaper and better value to just buy an average phone and a generic USBC or bluetooth controller bone to use PS streaming that way.
Likely higher quality too, on top of actually allowing you to use bluetooth earphones if you have them.

only boomers like this piece of junk because they're blind and need a large display. they also can't understand that their phone could do the same fucking thing and do even more WITHOUT an internet connection. but if you try to explain that to them they just say.
>duhhhh i only use my phone as a phone, the product just isn't for you!
so yeah, it's just a product meant to scam older people who don't know any better.
