    Surprising how much I like this device

    I was reluctant in getting this device since you can basically do the same thing with any mobile device - but there’s something about having a dedicated unit with familiar dual sense controls/feedback that makes it worth while. I’ve been using my iPad pro paired with a dual sense for remote play and this portal is much better. I’m clearing a lot of my backlog with this thing. Games look awesome, haptic feedbak is just like the dualsense. I would love it if it was more than just a ‘remote play’ device or if you could pair any set of earbuds, but those small complaints aside, this thing rocks. There’s finally enough availability so if you’re on the fence (like I was) so go get yours!

    The overall build quality is solid. Functionality so far is good. When games are streamed the quality of the graphics is like looking at my TV at home. The sound is perfect. I will eventually get wireless headphones and I know the sound will stay perfect.

    If you have a wired internet connection to your PS5 then the experience is great for slow paced games.

    I get its a remote player and not an actual handheld console. Graphics are great when connected to really good wifi. I bought it too try and game on the go with my mobile hotspot, but even with full service of 5G+ I still had connection issues. Great handheld for gaming at the house when TVs are occupied. All in all its a decent handheld.

    I wouldn't really recommend this remote player. From its announcement, it was promised to be a dedicated and more reliable remote player than the app or another form of remotely playing PS games, but it doesn't really deliver. I have a decent network at home with really good down/up speeds (AT&T Fiber). My first issue was that the remote player did not want to connect to my PS5 console. I had to make modifications to the WiFi network. When it finally connected, all the games I tried appeared blurry even though my console and Remote Player were both in the same room right next to the modem. To make the remote player work a little "better" would require me moving the console even closer to hardwire it to my modem. I would still be limited by the Remote Player's WiFi and any interference around my house, and I refuse to move my console from the room its currently in. There are many devices in my house that can cause interference (all the cell phones, other consoles, computers, TVs, sound systems, etc.) Finally, I decided it wasn't worth the trouble, and I returned the Remote Player. Most people have told me they've had "okay" experiences with it or have had to move the console, buy a different router, etc. The reality of it is that this remote player should have WiFi 6 to be a more reliable Remote Player and most people don't have the home network to pair with that if it did have it. Build-wise, it's good. I would've paid double its price for an actual dedicated mobile console from Sony. As it stands, I rather not have this remote player.

    Great device for my ps5!! Easy to set up. Definitely need to hard wire your ps5 to the internet, to reduce the lag/latency between the ps5 and portal.
