My use case is playing a handheld device on my couch for 15 minutes at a time. I want to be able to turn the device off and then instantly resume the game a week later, like the Nintendo switch. I also value a really nice screen.

I intend to never use this device outside the house.

I already have a nintendo switch oled for older/retro and want something to play AAA games handheld on the couch (Baldur’s gate).

I don’t have time to fuss around with the device.

Thinking of getting a PS5 and playstation portal.

Any reason I should go for steam deck (or other handheld PC) over PS5 and portal?

I think the PS5 and portal will be a better idea, because PS5 can run all aaa games, and there is no fussing with it although slightly concerned about how well the sleep function works on it. Looking for alternate viewpoints.

Thanks.
