You can buy a $15 phone clip to attach your phone to your controller, and enjoy remote play that way.
There are controller cradles for tablets as well. The best display I have is the 10" 1600p 120Hz display of my tablet.
You can connect the phone via USB-C to any hdmi display.
I use it often to stream games from my PC to a different room
6" is huge my computer monitor was barely bigger 20 years ago
But i get your point but to save you money homey get you a old Samsung Oled Tablet probably way bigger screen too
It is if you get a tablet with a case that can prop it up and then use a wireless controller. You're being inflexible, there are options out there other than a portal. My Lenovo tablet was 99 pounds brand new and a case came with it to prop it.
You're right, they aren't comparable. If you get a tablet you can basically use it as a computer as well as for streaming games within your own house.
Don't worry, I get what you mean. They're really nit comparable. When you have to do a bunch of extra things to compete, you're not really competing.
