A really great device for streaming games. It's practical and the image quality is excellent!

I was skeptical of this device given my remote play experience on other devices has not been great, in most cases unplayable. Somehow, this device works much better, though not perfect. With my PS5 wired-in I can keep a stable connection while playing FF7:Rebirth. Strangely framerate seems perfect in battles, small areas, and cutscenes. For whatever reason in the field I see regular frame skips or however you want to refer to it (lag?). The device seems best suited to RPGs which is what I bought it for. Racing games are unplayable on this, at least with my connection. When it works though, wow FF7Rebirth looks incredible on that screen. And having the real PS5 controller feels much better on this than any other alternative.

I do like the PlayStation Portal. My purpose of using it was to play wherever I wanted in the house. It accomplishes that. I use this quite a lot because of the convenience of not being attached to one room. I think it works for most games. However, the analog sticks are not the greatest for first person shooters. The analog sticks are smaller and it moves faster than a regular PS5 analog stick. I would have to slow down the vertical look to a 2 speed in order to aim perfectly. If they put the same analog sticks from the PS5 controller on the portal then it would be much better. Secondly, there are connection issues with remoting into the PlayStation 5 while in different rooms. Thirdly, I wish this was more portable so you can play the PlayStation 5 anywhere you go without having to keep the PlayStation 5 on and remote into it. Overall, I do enjoy it and I do use it a lot while at home.

The PlayStation Portal is a game changer! I'm not only able to play my PS5 games remotely in my home but there is seamless transition from console to the Portal, every time! Meaning no issues transitioning when I play on my console throughout the day and finish in my bed!

Got this as a gift from my wife as a way to stop taking up the main TV. Was skeptical at first, but it works great. I have more issues from my Internet provider than the device itself. Plus with the new update you can use cloud gameplay!
