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.

My grandson loved the game he got really exited when i got home with it.
He plays the game after he gets from school but first he needs to finish he's homework and then he can play the game for only 2 hr.And he is very happy after he plays the game connected to the PS5.
And i'm happy also to se my grandson happy as well.
I thank Best Buy for my grandson happiness.
Tks.

The item is what I ordered. There was some confusion in the beginning, but the representative was able to inform me on the process to clear up the confusion on my part.

Love the ability to use it anywhere. Only problem is some connection stability issues depending on your home WiFi strength. Also wish there’s more options for cloud gaming.

In despite of all tech reviewers, this is a surprisingly good idea from Sony. By capturing the basic need of anyone who owns a PS5 and can barely play on it because you as an owner insists to show it off in the living room. Well, problem solved! It feels like a tied sale, but what the heck? I can now play my PS5 with a fair quality and great ergonomics from the comfort of my toilet. A pity it can’t connect to PS4

Kids excited to get the Playstation for Christmas but had to leave to visit relatives.... Blew their minds when we pulled this out for them to play in the car.
Excellent accessory, but may not be useful for all

If you have the PSN streaming feature, this becomes extremely valuable since then you can continue using this independently of the actual Play Station, so you can stream something directly while the PS is being used for something else. The screen is a decent size, and the controller still manages to feel very natural despite the wider grip.
I personally found playing racing games difficult just because of how I move my hands, but RPGs especially are super fun to run on this.
That being said, my brother returned his purely because he hardly used it. It is somewhat of a niche for this to actively be used. If your usage is still primarily the main console or you don't move around enough to justify this, then it will just gather dust. So I think it's worth checking out your play flow to see if it's actually useful.

Now that you can stream playStation games without the need of a PlayStation, this handheld opens up an entire world of Gaming. The ergonomics are great and the screen is vivid and bright. I would definitely recommend this if you have a PlayStation account.

It's actually a fairly solid device that has surprised me. It can still be better. For the price and the functionality, it is pretty impressive. What really surprised me was that I was at my friends house 50 miles away in the next county. He has very good internet and solid wifi connectivity at his house. I was trying to show him the thing by connecting to his PS5. And that did not work well at all, in fact it got stuck and I had trouble getting out of an error screen. Then when I finally was able to get back to the home screen, it did something I wasn't expecting.
After about 30 seconds. It told me that it had connected to my PS5 back home. A bit surprised I connected and proceeded to play a Contra demo, which requires some decent quickness to play the game well enough to beat it. And then I showed my friend the FF7 Rebirth demo, set the game to performance mode because there's no point playing a 30fps mode when the resolution is set to 1080p. And it ran at a slightly stuttered 60fps mode. Some odd artifacts from time to time, but overall. I was playing a very nice high production game at a very smooth framerate. My friend immediately took notice and became interested in the device.
Obviously it boils down to you being somewhere with a good wifi connection and also having a good overall inter et connection. But for $200, you can play some really nice games that run good enough to actually play them.
The only thing I am still disappointed is the battery life. Bit eventually you will go somewhere where there's a wall plug

Best thing PlayStation has ever done!
The fact that you can play online, play games from PlayStation plus and it mimic the actual PS5… I recommend everyone that’s a PlayStation fan to buy one
