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. Assuming the 120HZ streaming is solid, an OLED would be the more welcome addition, especially with the latest generation of technology offering QD-OLED (Quantum Dot-OLED), WOLED (White-OLED) and other buzzy titles for smarter display.  Whatever ...

Plus, there could be some huge surprises to come as we get to see the Helghan side of the conflict.
More opinion from PSU:
Guerrilla claims that Killzone Mercenary was designed from the outset to mirror the visual fidelity and unyielding immersion of its console ilk. After playing through an early section of the game, I can confirm that both claims hold true. Running on a slightly-downscaled version of the Killzone 3 engine, Mercenary impresses with dynamic lighting, stunning aesthetic, and a myriad of post-processing effects.
