    Was skeptical for the longest time due to the bugs when it originally came out, but the updates overtime prove that it's a legit product.

    Over a good device, beta streaming is nice but limited game selection at this time. Once that expands, it will be 5*. A little awkward for the center button as it is on the touch screen, takes some getting used to. ,,,

    PS5 suffers from the shackles of console gaming. Ur stuck in one stationary location. I have put half a dozens hours on the PS5 vs the hundreds on the Switch. The portal acts as a Nintendo Switch: go where ever, play whenever (strong WiFi required). I’ve had little issues with lag and slow connection, granted I’m near high speed WiFi spots.

    I got this so that my brother can play remotely without being in my room. Although depending on your network connection it could be a little choppy, when you have good connection then it works great! I went with this over the backbone because of the dualsense feel and still getting all the features of a dualsense controller.

    Is a nice item to have to play PlayStation games on the go. Wish it would hold a internet connect a bit better though

    In general, this seemed pointless … until I got it. Now, I am very impressed with it. It’s lightweight and on my WiFi6 mesh network it’s seemingly without lag. Suddenly I can take the PS5 to another room without physically moving it.

    This thing is awesome at what it does. The most authentic way to play remotely. You just need fast stable wifi and the right ports opened. Tried to use it at a Marriot and their onsite router had the requisite ports blocked. Had to use wifi hotspot from phone which wasn't ideal.

    It’s a very fun handheld device for the PS5. I found myself playing my games more because I could be anywhere to play as long as I have a reliable WiFi connection. I did noticed that FPS games doesn’t run as well on it but all other games I’ve played in different genres works great. Definitely a must-buy if you like playing games in another room than where your console is.

    Absolutely love this thing. For it to work to work its best you will need to connect an Ethernet cable to your PlayStation. it wouldn't work for me without it. But I love that I can play my games in bed without keeping the hubby up

    With the new updates you dont even need the a ps5 to play. You can now stream. But lets be honest its 2025 who doesnt have a ps5. I am going to but the midnight black version and the 30th anniversary edition.

    Works better than anticipated. If you are looking for a way to play your PlayStation without being connected to your tv/console, this is the device you need. However, you need strong internet, preferably connected via Ethernet to get maximum efficiency.
