    When i heard about this device i immediately knew i was the demographic. As a dad im often unable to go to my game room until the kids are sleeping. With the portal im able to play while the kids are playing. It feels like a duel sense. Id much prefer the portal over other remote play options. On home wifi its seemless for single player games. I connected it to my hotspot and the quality wasnt as great and i had a few frame drops but it was playable. Id recommend for any parent.

    Gaming when the TV is being used by the family

    I thoroughly enjoy using the PlayStation Portal. I bought it to be able to play while my wife and son watch TV in our living room. Single player games seem to be fine, a little bit of input lag in MLB the show when pitching and swinging. I have not tried FPS games yet. This may not be the best option for competitive games, but if you want to get a gaming session in and you're trying not to always alienate yourself from your family. This is a great option.

    Another excellent Sony product. Perfect for my gaming needs. After becoming a father it gets harder to find time to game on your PS5 console. So being able to bring the game to my bed or anywhere I want to be and wifi is around and enjoy the same comfort of the PS5. I couldn't be happier.

    Its just a handheld controller with a screen it does everything you would expect has good visuals and pretty solid frame rate when on a good wifi it’s basically just a switch in handheld mode. But when on iffy wifi it doesn’t work great it has bad visuals lokking very blurry and the lag is rough haven’t tried it out of the house to see how long connections work for it but if you have bad wifi it will not work well so if thats your situation then definitely should pass on this one.

    I liked, definitely is not for everybody but if you are looking a secondary experience for your Playstation 5 set up is a good deal.

    Its for us poor dads who get bullied by our little loved ones and took our TVs away for cocomelon or whatever these kids like now adays, with the playstation portal our problems solved , this is your new nintendo switch but with ps5 power and exclusives, and as far as performance its flawless … i played in the bathroom, living room , dining room and most importantly 2 states away from where my ps5 is and it was still perfect , of course internet connection is required !!!

    The Portal rocks!

    At first I was skeptical due to the Portal being cloud streaming only, however I’ve been thoroughly pleased with my purchase. I do want to add that I have a stable and high speed fiber connection, so your experience may differ from mine. Also if you’re on a network with lots of pull on your WiFi bandwith, I would use a second router attached to your ISP modem via Ethernet to give the PlayStation Portal first priority. It doesn’t take long at all to pair to my PS5, and the quality of my game streaming is excellent. Hardly any input lag for me and almost identical to native gaming.

    PlayStation portal is a fantastic local streaming platform. Controllers feel like holding a ps5 controller and the screen is a great size and looks fantastic. Connectivity and latency work surprising well and was able to play games like persona 3 reload with no issues at all. Highly recommend
