Looks like people aren’t exactly impressed with Portal in general, although the hands-on experiences are more positive (tho they don’t really say much).
The lack of Bluetooth is a particularly sore spot - that’s 150-200 $€£ extra for a compatible pair of headphones… I was hoping Sony grew out of their proprietary nonsense, but apparently not.

Main questions for me at this point are:
Does it have HDR? And does it support usbC dongles for headsets like the Arctis 7 and others? If the answer to either is no, then I probably won’t get it. If the answer is yes, then I might consider.
Apparently Sony is somehow adamant that it’s a normal LCD screen, if it was in any way HDR capable, they’d probably make a deal out of it.
USB-C headset - doubtful, considering it has a 3.5mm jack and even BT is unavailable so they want to push their proprietary headset so hard. But it does have Android, sooo maybe they forgot to disable the USB audio output…
And I’m guessing this will be rooted and hacked in no time, but then what’s the point if one can buy a bazillion Android devices of all shapes and sizes for remote play.
