Possible new PlayStation Portal model pays homage to the Vita's OLED

While much of the focus on PlayStation's next steps is the PS6 and PS6 Portable , the two-year old PlayStation Portal could be getting a revamp according to those pesky internet rumours.  Update : Hints at pricing are around £/$250-299 for the new model, but everything remains deeply in rumours territory. Presumably to hit the 10% (currently 7%-ish) adoption rate among PS5 owners that would make it a bone fide hit gadget.   As the improvement in connectivity and streaming tech, proven by many gamers enjoying their PS5 or PlayStation Plus streamed content from around the world, an updated Portal Pro could be on the cards.  Possibly featuring a 120Hz display and an OLED screen in honour of the mighty Vita, that'd be cool.

Acer unveils a gaming tablet Predator

With rumours of a new Nvidia Shield handheld doing the rounds, Acer is getting busy in the gaming market with a new dedicated Android tablet for players. Being shown off at Computex in Taiwan, the Predator 8 has an aggressive design, to match Acer's similarly-named range of notebooks and desktops.


The device features a quad speaker set up for booming audio, is driven by a chunky Intel X7 CPU and a 16-core eighth-gen Intel HD Graphics GPU, all wrapped up behind an eight-inch HD screen. It will presumably come with 3 or 4GB RAM and plenty of storage.

Due for release in the winter, as long as the games are there to support it, it should do well. Most Android reviews focus around the latest iteration of Asphalt (in the picture) above, Modern Combat and so on - anyone know if there's much in the way of gaming innovation on the platform?
