Most phones released in the 0ast 5 years have no audio jack, you skipped over answering about the controller. You can't really play ps5 games with touch controls, and you skipped over how incredibly small your iPhone 6s screen is. All olthat you describe would make for terrible gaming.
I never said the iPhone 6S would be a desired way to play PS5 games what the heck.
I just approached the battery life/charger subject with it.
The PlayStation Portal pretty much needs to excel at this because it is the only thing it can do LMAO
I mean, I think it is nice to see it has a very tiny amount of userbase, but still, handhelds are a niche to begin with (more these days), the Switch only helped to attract attention to them, so this is a niche item in a niche segment, that lacks over many other devices.
I just mentioned the phone because I'm pretty sure it is a device you have very close to you, have you ever heard of the Chinese emulator handhelds? Some are basically just Android phones with controllers built in and jack ports, they can do streaming as well and gaming, those unnoficial alternatives already add more value than the PS Portal, especially for the price.
