I have a PS5 with disk drive so if i want to play a different game i have downloaded, i have to physically switch the disks in the console itself which defeats the purpose if im going to be away from the console or don’t want to switch it out every time. Curious to know who this would work with a digital ps5 as opposed to the physical disk console. Next issue I’ve ran into is a little bit of lagging. As it’s trying to mirror the console, it can lag a bit and depending on the game being played could cause issues. For what I do it’s minimal and can play through it. Overall it’s pretty cool and the screen size is big for handheld console. This has it’s time and place but would prefer to play on an actual tv if given a choice. Overall, if you’re a PlayStation fan and have a little money burning a hole in your pocket like I did, i’d say give it a try.

I picked up a Portal on a whim ahead of a business trip and was pleasantly surprised by it. The best way to think of it is it's not as a stand alone console but rather a two-way streaming device of your PS5. It does take a little getting used to, especially if you're playing a live service game. But as long as you have at least an 15 Mbps connection you should be fine.
One major downside is it can be tricky to connect. Connecting to a network that uses a captive portal/login page can be difficult as it doesn't have a built-in browser. Using a travel router or hotspot is probably the best way to go to avoid this problem.
