    honestly really do enjoy the portal alot. the audio quality isnt the best & you do need good wifi in order to play it but i do recommend it for story based/single player games. i havent tried multiplayer games yet but if you do ply story based game i strongly recommend if you get the chance.

    Playstation portal.... Great device

    The PlayStation portal is a Great device. It allows you to play your PlayStation 5 without being tethered to the TV. Since I've had it that it's been my favorite way to play my PlayStation in a way. However, that comes at a cost sometimes. If the internet is not great then it suffers because it is a remote player, not a stand-alone console. If you're downloading something else while trying to stream at the same time, your game play suffers. However, when things are great with this device, things are really great. The visual quality is great. The gameplay feels like a PlayStation. 5. Dual sense in your hand. The screen puts out very well, so I think that if you were to buy it, knowing that this is not a Nintendo switch, where's a standalone device okay? If you're okay with that, then you should have no problems with this device because it is quite fine.

    This thing blew away my expectations. After a few updates they added the ability to play games streaming from PS Plus without the need for a PS5 and that took it over the top. The wife and kids usually are using the TV so this allows me to play PS5 or classic games while they are watching TV.

    Absolutely love the portal it works perfect with my ps5 pro. Just make sure there's a great wifi connection and you can play anywhere! (Also if you don't have a PS5 to remote play, you can use your PlayStation plus premium account and stream games over the cloud.) My experience buying through best buy is easy and the workers are knowledgeable, easy find easy check-out.

    if you can somehow get perfect wifi connection, then it would be perfect itself. But it's using a WiFi 5 chip and the stuttering and scream tearing is relentless, even with the best routers. Tried everything.

    Great Device with room for improvement

    At it's core. This device is FANTASTIC for streaming PS5 games in(or out) of your home provided you have a sufficient wireless network and/or knowledge to improve it. That said, your streaming performance is based on that ALONE. The device itself could use some NATIVE cloud streaming which would make it WAY more attractive for the $200 price point. Lack of Bluetooth is not a complete deal breaker for me personally but I can understand why others would have an issue with it. Controller is best in class(obviously the dual-sense features are top notch) and trump all others configs/controllers on that alone and streaming has some minor hiccups here and there with regards to dropped frames(which seemingly are due to HDR and/or unplugging the HDMI cable as per reddit) but I am sure that knowing sony the device will be improved upon over time via firmware updates. In short, temper expectations with this device and look for great PS5 game streaming and/or cloud streaming (in the future hopefully via firmware update) and forget any thoughts of doing anything on the device natively due to mid tier(Qualcomm) chipset.
