    The idea/ concept is great but connectivity is limited and all the changes and settings you have to make to get it to work properly creates a new headache. Does it look nice yes does it feel nice yes but it constantly buffers I would not recommend this. People say if you have a PlayStation plus premium account for streaming games directly to the device it works better I don’t have that I use it solely for remote play and EVERYTIME I Turn it on I have issue ( 1gb/ mesh router)

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    The New PSP

    It's an amazing portable device that acts as an extension to the PS5. The only issues anyone will have with this device will be attaining good wifi connections while away from your home wifi. If your wifi connection is slow, the game appears grainy, but it's still playable. The speakers are good enough to hear everything from the game. I have no issue this part of the device. My issue is with the fact Sony did not make Bluetooth available to connect to head phones or earbuds of your choice. Is you want ear buds, you will have to pay for the ones sony will release soon that will only work for this device and the PS5 but the catch is the $200 price tag you will have to pay.

    Fantastic! Now I can play my games, while I ignore my wife as she watches her Drama shows and Documentaries. Just make sure you connect your PS5 via Ethernet to avoid a headache of figuring out why you keep disconnecting.

    User experiences it great when it’s working well however definitely have a few complaints. No bluetooth which is silly and seems like a money grab to use the proprietary Somy link technology. The initial connection to the PS5 is very wonky when the PS5 is in restmode. Other than that very enjoyable

    I love my playstation portal. Being able to play on the go as well as in other rooms or while my partner is using the TV is amazing. There's a reason these are so challenging to get and its because if you're someone who is more on the go it allows you to continue playing your favorite games.

    While it has its obvious limitations of needing a PS5 to source the content, it's absolutely fantastic for those who want to be able to play games either away from their PS5, or when family is monopolizing the television.

    Does exactly what I wanted it to. I can play my games while my fiance watches her shows. If you have decent internet, there isnt any lag at all. Ive had a hitch here or there but thats more an internet issue, not something on the Portal. Definitely recommend hardwiring your PS5, helps the experience a lot.

    Great product and would recommend it to anyone. I will say though that you need to have good internet connection and a decent router to play it outside of the house. I have a gaming router and high speed internet. So it is an amazing product to get.

    Good product from Sony, but to use you need good wifi and can not play it at all unless is connected to your ps5 via wifi with playstation on rest mode back home. Would be good to have an offline option to play it like the psp.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
