Sony Project Q
Sony’s recent revelation of its forthcoming handheld console, Project Q, along with its design and key specifications, has garnered attention. Rather than a fully-fledged console, this device will serve as a game-streaming platform, relying on Remote Play via Wi-Fi to stream games from a connected PS5 console.
To utilize the Project Q console, users must possess a PS5 console and be in close proximity or connected to the same Wi-Fi network. This particular requirement has left many gamers perplexed, as they contemplate the target audience for this product. However, one potential aspect that could have been appealing is its expected extended battery life, considering that the console does not process games locally. Unfortunately, leaked information from Tom Henderson at Insider Gaming suggests that Project Q’s battery life is projected to last around 3-4 hours. This duration is comparable to other devices like the Steam Deck or Nintendo Switch, which handle game processing directly on their hardware.
The relatively short battery life of Project Q may be attributed to a few factors. One potential reason is the presence of a diminutive battery capacity. Additionally, there is speculation that the console might feature an OLED panel, which could contribute to heightened power consumption. While IPS displays theoretically necessitate more power due to their always-on backlight, in practice, OLED displays tend to consume more power due to the need to illuminate a greater number of pixels, particularly when displaying bright content.
Although the inclusion of an OLED panel remains unconfirmed and currently exists as a mere rumor, what we do know is that the device will boast an 8-inch FHD screen, likely with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,080, capable of delivering games at a smooth 60 FPS.
