Can the ps portal work if you don’t own an actual ps5?

his argument is far better than trying to claim the ps portal is a console?  It’s an accessory. A controller with a little tv on it. 

PSPortal can work without a PS5 with the most recent Cloud update. I actually threw this question around a few days ago, and it seems the consensus is this: All units sold prior to the Cloud update were accessory purchases and thereby do not count toward to overall PS5 total. All future purchases should not count toward the PS5 total unless Sony begins marketing the device as a PlayStation 5 Portable. Otherwise, you could make the argument for Switch 2 counting toward Switch 1 sales figures, with Switch 2 merely having a few QoL & technical enhancements.

I mean, even with cloud, if we start counting PS Portal as a PS5 because of cloud games, then Xbox has been right all along about everything that has Xbox games being an Xbox.
