This is the best summary I could come up with:

The handheld device will stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi and features an eight-inch LCD screen running at 1080p resolution at 60fps.

“PlayStation Portal will connect remotely to your PS5 over Wi-Fi, so you’ll be able to swiftly jump from playing on your PS5 to your PlayStation Portal,” says Hideaki Nishino, senior vice president of platform experience at Sony Interactive Entertainment.

“PlayStation Portal can play supported games that are installed on your PS5 console and use the Dualsense controller.”

They support adaptive triggers and haptic feedback, so PS5 games will feel similar to using a dedicated DualSense controller.

Strangely, the $199.99 handheld won’t work with Sony’s upcoming cloud streaming for PS5 games.

The PlayStation Portal was previously known as Project Q and was officially announced in May, with a rumored release date in November.
