Pretty but the motion blur was too much

While a very nice looking device, it failed to deliver what it was designed for: remote play to my PS5.
The good;
It’s a beautiful device. The OLED makes the interface really pop, and was a delight to configure and setup. The latter being very smooth and simple.
The bad:
Horrible refresh rate for game play, which results in terrible motion blur. I’m not a professional gamer and I don’t need a 120 panel, so I figured this would be good enough for me. I’ve played with a 60Hz panel (with low response times) connected to my PS for years and have been fine with it. The refresh on the portal is so bad that FPS games are unplayable, which is unfortunate since it affects all of the titles I enjoy playing.
This is not a result of network lag. This issue occurred even when paying on my home WIFI network (I’m a EE with a very well tuned network at home).
The lesser gripe are the analog sticks. They feel more like joy cons than playing with a DS5.
If motion blur doesn’t bother you, or you play games that are more static and do not require much of a refresh rate/response time: This may be a good fit. For now, I’m sticking with remote play on my phone and will wait for another solution.

I love the concept and the screen is really nice. I also love the controllers but the WI-FI 5 on the device is awful. I have WI-FI 7 in my home and the gameplay was not good. For this reason, im returing it sadly. Hopefully they will update it and ill buy it again.

Large display and full suite of DualSense controls make the PlayStation Portal the ultimate remote play device for your PS5 – but consistent performance depends on your Wi-Fi
