    Love mine! If you're having latency or a connection issue just look up how to put all your devices on 2.4 Ghz and your Portal on 5Ghz via your router settings (your PS5 should be using ethernet). Something so great about putting down the controller in the living room, and then picking up the Portal in the bedroom and the game didn't skip a beat.

    While the handgeld has some comfortable controls and came in at a steal during Black Friday, the portal has issues baked into its design that diminish its potential value. The handheld is streaming only as opposed to being able to download your library onto it directly. Not only that but the analog sticks can be fragile, a disapointing fact when considering the cost of the handheld when bought at its MSRP.

    Screen bigger than anticipated, Image a little blurry when you first connect to your PS5 using remote play, but after that it is nice and sharp. Sound good, both on the device and while using headphones.

    What an amazing piece of hardware this is, when I’m traveling and there is wifi present i am gaming, your console has to be left on in rest mode in order to connect to your ps5 at home.

    Fun portable in the house when needed, and somewhere with good wifi, so you can play console games or stream games.

    Works like it says. Need to have good wifi connection and have the ps5 conmected to LAN and works perfectly fine. You cant use it with public wifis such as hotels where you have to sign in separately on web. The device itself feels light and comfortable to use for long periods of time. Overall happy with the purchase

    when i first purchased, i was skeptical. You do need an really good internet connection and it does require your ps5 to be in rest mode, and connected to wifi, but if your ps5 is hardwired to the router, it should be no issue. There was a recent update that makes the portal its on device persay, as long as you have the Premium tier of PS Plus, you can stream games directly from the cloud, no PS5 needed. The catalog right now isnt to big due to it being in beta, but it definitely makes it worth it now

    Great way to play PS5 games remotely. The screen is big and has great picture quality for an LCD. It runs very smoothly. Would've looked better with an OLED screen, but that would increase its cost. Overall excellent product.
