This is NOT a PS5 dedicated Switch. It doesn't travel beyond the boundaries of your home WiFi network. This is made clear in the literature, but often overlooked. That said, it is nice to be able to access the PS5 from anywhere in the house and at anytime, especially if the PS5 is connected to a TV that is used for other purposes. This means that no matter who else is using that TV at the time, you can still play your PS5 games. The unit, itself, has comfortable and familiar controls, and the screen is vivid and easy to view over an extend play-session. If you have strong WiFi through out the house, there is little if any lag or stuttering. I think of this item as a "gadget" to help extend my opportunity to access my PS5. It also helps keep the peace when there is a conflict between the TV watchers and the gamers.

The Portal, in my opinion, is for a specific gamer. One that shares the TV with family but would like to game whenever they can. I enjoy gaming while family is watching TV, and I can go outside too. I have not taken it out of the home so I don't know how true remote gaming works on the Portal, but at home the connection is solid. I have not experienced any lag or drops in rate, it is well executed. For my specific need, need to play while TV is being used, this is perfect. I used to remote play on my laptop but that was cumbersome, now it's flawless and very enjoyable.

I love this PlayStation Portal. So easy to pick up and play all my digital PS5 games anywhere in the house. Wired connection from PS5 to the router helps latency immensely. When I’m playing at home there’s practically no latency, feels like playing directly on the console. Outside of the house there’s a little bit of lag but my brain quickly adjusts to it. Ergonomics feel great, it’s lightweight and easy to hold, no hand cramps like playing on the Switch. Battery life is decent, I can get about 4-5hrs of gameplay on a single charge. It came packaged really nicely. Overall a fantastic product and has me playing my PS5 more than ever.

The Sony PlayStation portal looks and feel better than using the backbone. It has a little weight to it but is high quality construction. It doesn't quite feel like a PlayStation controller but close. The screen and the graphics are very good, just like a miniature experience that one would get on the PS5. Because of this, I would recommend getting some screen protectors and a after market case to store and transport it.
I haven't experienced any latency when playing. It really depends on your connectivity for online gaming. It's a great value.

The PS Portal has a beautiful display with high resolution. The controls feel just like a PS5 controller. Battery Life was longer than I expected. This product only falls short with its WiFi capabilities. Seem that the only way to avoid disconnecting, resolution loss, freezing and pixelation is to be on a strong home WiFi network. Even if your cell phone hotspot reads at 100+ meg net speed. The wireless signal isn’t sufficient to avoid all these problems I encountered. Limiting the portability aspect which is a big let down. Another thing I wasn’t aware of is that you PS5 has to be on at home while you use on the go. I’m leaning more to a 3.5 star rating tbh. The PS Portal would easily be a 5 star if it worked on cell networks without trouble but this is not what I found to be the case.
