Got this for my son, specifically to keep the peace in the house as I watch college football on fall Saturdays and he’s itching to play on his PS5. What sold me is the ability to now stream games (with PS+ online membership) from a growing library of games. Some slight latency issues, as with all streaming game systems, but it’s been a great experience. Well built. Basically a controller built around the screen.

Let’s talk about what this thing ISNT to clear confusion. It’s not a standalone game player, and it’s not even the type of device you take with you to play on the train, plane, or even on crappy hotel WiFi. If you want to buy for those reasons, you’ll be disappointed.
IF you’re a parent who doesn’t have the TV available in your home network, you want to play while laying in bed, or want to have quick sessions while holding a baby in one arm, then this is the device for you. With a strong local WiFi connection and a wired ps5, you’ll get excellent performance, true controller functionally, and a high fidelity screen. It’s worth it if you’re a member of a relatively slim target market.

Really love the controls and the design overall of the device, however, my Internet is not reliable enough to consistently hold a signal with my PS five. I found that streaming games over the cloud was actually better than remote play. However, remote play was the primary reason I bought it. For some reason, the remote play app on my Lenovo Legion go S actually performance is way more consistently than this device did. I’m not sure why it could just come down to the Wi-Fi chip being more current. Still I would recommend this device if you have a really solid mesh network in your home.

I purchased this not thinking I would use it is much as I have. This frees you from being tied down to the TV in the spot you have your PS5 hooked up at. I can be laying in bed playing games, while my wife is watching TV.
It does have some limitations. You do need a stable WiFi for it to work flawlessly. It can lag at times, but for the most part it works great. I do not play many PvP games on it, as there can be a slight lag that can pop up can make or break your game. But it works great for single player games.

All i would say is save your money and wait for an upgraded version. When this device works well and has no lag its the best handheld you can buy for the money, but when it disconnects snd lag consistently you start to wonder whats the purpose of this…

There's pros and cons but you have to remember it's $200. If you have weak wifi, don't even bother playing, it's horrible. However, if you're connected to fast wifi the portal works great. It's a bigger Nintendo switch with better graphics and better games. If you want something that's versatile and media app friendly, spend the extra money on a steam deck or the aids rog. Those are about triple the cost but can do more. This is cheaper than a switch, so yes expect it to do less. It's advertise to be a remote play controller, and it's good at doing that. On good wifi, latency is fast. Lag isn't really there

I like the design its easy to use as a long time playstation and controller user comfortable to use and easy to set up, some annoyances that come with it is nothing major or bad enough not to recommend but a bit of a pain when it comes to visual quality dropping with me playing it in another room with constant unstable network connection dropping remote play visual quality

The device works great and has a decent time streaming games and works without a ps5 console however a 160 subscription per year on top oh needing wifi all the time is annoying for $360 id rather spend $400 on a steam deck
