PlayStation Portal: Hands On With Sony's New Remote Play Handheld

As a reminder, the PlayStation Portal, or Project Q, is (according to leaks) based on Android. It doesn't run the games itself, it merely streams them from your PS5 and your handheld then serves as a controller with its own display.

I'm wondering why anyone would prefer that over simply using a regular Android phone with a good controller and the PS Remote Play app?

"rooted" and "jailbreak" are exactly the same procedure: obtain root access to low level hardware. The only difference is Apple fans trying to be different.

I know they do the same thing, lol. But I've never heard someone say they're going to jailbreak their Android. It's just semantics.

They even mean the same thing technically! The “jail” specifically refers to a jailed shell, as BSD jail, so both jailbreaking and rooting (as in Unix root) both quite literally mean the same thing, privilege escalation.
