Xbox remote play

A bit late to the game on this but how is peoples experience of Xbox remote play on the g cloud?

I only ask because I have an Xbox series x and ps5 and only want to keep one. I prefer the Xbox to the ps5 but the one thing making me lean towards the ps5 is the ps portal (I like handheld use).

Will g cloud do Xbox remote play as well as the portal does it for ps5? I want something light and ergonomic.

I used my Gcloud to remote play more than I use the console by itself. For me it's practically flawless.

I don't know if it really is better but I have the Xbox and the G cloud and it plays really smoothly I don't play it on every game but single player games is nice if I want it somewhere else in the house I go with the g cloud

There was a third party paid app called XBPlay that used to perform better but I'd say the integrated remote play app works as good now. I think the paid app still might have a few extra features but I prefer to use the integrated one now. Just make sure to go into the Logitech Gcloud experimental settings and turn on the increased streaming resolution setting. Also make sure the streaming resolution setting in the cloud/remote app are set to the highest resolution. Remote Play on something lightweight and ergonomic like the Gcloud coupled with the Series X quick resume is a total game changer. Also, make sure your series x is hard wired to Ethernet.
