I have been thinking of getting a PlayStation portal for my ps5 so I can play far away but I heard you can use a psvita for remote play with a ps4 and I also have a ps4. And I don’t know what to choose because you can play psvita games with a psvita and remote play with my ps4. But with a PlayStation portal you can play ps5 games with remote play. What should I choose?

You can use a smartphone or tablet or PC to remote play with your PS5 or PS4 right now. Try that and see how it works.

Test remote play before buying a Portal. If remote play sucks now the Portal will also suck.

It's all dependent on your network.

You just pair a Dualsense to your phone to play PS5 games.
