Project Q is the upcoming streaming only device that will allow you to play games installed on a PlayStation 5 remotely.
It has not been announced if the handheld will allow streaming of games from the cloud and is rumoured to cost between £250 - £300.

Will you be picking one up later this year?

Absolutely not. If it’s a streaming device that means I have to be near high-speed wifi to use it. For the same price you can get a steam deck which can play thousands of games.

Yeah it’s why I’m on the fence about a Steam Deck. I’m stuck between a Project Q and gaming PC or just getting a Steam Deck with a dock and monitor so my gaming PC is like a Switch. Is that possible with a Steam Deck?

Yes it is possible. You should look at the ROG ally since it runs Windows which may be more to your liking

The rog ally has had micro sd issues, make sure that is resolved if you choose one over the steam deck. The deck boots right to steam so you don’t need to touch the Linux os unless you want to branch out.

I thought the Steam Deck was Windows too.

Yes you can plug the steam deck into an official deck or just a USB hub with hdmi. It will then display on TV and allows controller input. So yes, it works like a switch in that respect.
