Native Spanish-speakers: do you understand Portuguese or Italian more easily?

[HelloGuys]

I understand both but I studied both for a while. Italian and brazilian portuguese are equally easy to understand for me. Portugal portuguese is harder to catch.

Yeah; portuguese from Portugal is harder, at least I didn't understand anything when I saw/heard a video lol instead the portuguese from Brazil I could understand almost everything xddd

Written Portuguese is easier to read but Italian phonetics are closer to Spanish.

Portuguese speak with a shoe within the mouth, as we say in Spain.

Lexically Portuguese is undoubtedly closer, but phonetically it is much more debatable.
