    I like the idea but the controlling on actual gaming is off and you must have a strong internet connection to play

    Playstation portable remote review

    I recently got my hands on the Sony PlayStation Portal Remote, and I have to say, it's a game changer for any serious gamer! From the moment I unboxed it, I could tell that Sony paid a lot of attention to detail. The sleek design is inviting, boasting the iconic PlayStation colors while still being comfortable to hold for those extended gaming marathons. Setting it up was incredibly straightforward! It seamlessly connected to my PS5 without any hassle—thank you, Sony, for keeping things user-friendly! The remote gives you direct access to all your favorite applications and games, making it so easy to switch between them without fumbling through menus. I absolutely love the dedicated buttons for popular services like Netflix and Spotify; it saves me tons of time! One of the standout features for me is the responsiveness of the buttons. They have a satisfying click that provides a tactile feedback which helps improve my overall gaming experience, especially during intense real-time matches. The remote is also surprisingly lightweight, so I don’t experience wrist fatigue after hours of gripping it while snugged up on the couch. One of my favorite aspects has been the ability to power on my console from the remote as well; it's perfect for those spontaneous gaming moments—imagine quickly turning on your PS5 after a long day at work and diving into your immersive world without the extra effort of getting up! As for troubleshooting, I’ve faced no hiccups whatsoever. The signal range is excellent, and I can control my PS5 even from a different room, which is impressive and adds a level of convenience that keeps me coming back for more use. In conclusion, if you're a PlayStation enthusiast like myself, the Sony PlayStation Portal Remote is a must-have. It not only elevates your gaming experience but also makes it more enjoyable and comfortable. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to enhance their setup!

    I've had my Playstation portal for about 2 months now, and it is amazing with a few hiccups. The games look and run beautiful for the most part if you have a stable wifi connection but playing multi-player games is a bit awkward.

    Streaming issues are there even with decent Internet. I love the ergonomics and controls if the system. Being a streaming system hurts it. I've had worse play remote playing my ps5 as compared to the ps plus streaming beta. If you don't have the Internet didn't buy this. I currently have spectrum and still stutters and disconnects.

    Im a video gamer. It's a smooth way play games even when you are away. You don't necessarily need the PS5 console as long as you subscribe a PS plus. Very good item

    I don't normally write product reviews but this one is pretty cool. Yes just like anything it has its quirks and bugs that need to be tweaked but the fact that you can have your PS4 or PS5 in your hand and play whatever is on it or in its library, all you need is a good wifi connection and you can play anywhere. I think this is a great product.

    Given that (when I had it) you were only able to stream directly from your PS5 - it worked well. The screen looked good enough, and it is super comfortable to hold and play with. However, since then they have updated it to be able to do Cloud Gaming I'm pretty sure, which is actually a pretty big game-changer.

    Really liked this product! I’m not gonna get into the techs and specs about it, but all I can say is that this little device is very versatile. There’s times where I just wanna chill in bed, or on the couch and don’t want to be facing a big screen the whole time. So with this device it gives me the ability to play it anywhere I’m connected to Wi-Fi. I had my doubts about it, but I mean instead of being on my phone in the toilet, I can be on my Portable lol

    Works well. Good price. Tough latency for some of the faster paced twitch games, but works well for games like Minecraft. Not terrific for platformers or fps games though. Battery life is excellent. Screen is bright.
