    Playstation portal.... Great device

    The PlayStation portal is a Great device. It allows you to play your PlayStation 5 without being tethered to the TV. Since I've had it that it's been my favorite way to play my PlayStation in a way. However, that comes at a cost sometimes. If the internet is not great then it suffers because it is a remote player, not a stand-alone console. If you're downloading something else while trying to stream at the same time, your game play suffers. However, when things are great with this device, things are really great. The visual quality is great. The gameplay feels like a PlayStation. 5. Dual sense in your hand. The screen puts out very well, so I think that if you were to buy it, knowing that this is not a Nintendo switch, where's a standalone device okay? If you're okay with that, then you should have no problems with this device because it is quite fine.

    Loved the idea of playing on the go or just in other rooms of the house, but I honestly noticed too much of a lag to use it. My PS5 is hardwired and I followed all the recommended networks setting I could find but couldn’t get it to work well enough.

    This device is great overall but literally you need a ps5 and it just like having a fancy controller with its own screen, it won’t work if your are using the ps5 can’t used it at the same time.

    It has helped me tremendously. Not more waiting until my wife is done watching her shows to be able to game. Now I can game right next to her while she uses the tv.

    Bought this primarily so my wife could use our living room television and I could still play something in our living room. Had some connectivity issues at the start but for the limited time i do use it I really love it. Very happy with it!

    I leave my PS5 hooked up to my livingroom TV and occasionally move it to my bedroom. I bought the Portal with mild expectations as I knew the latency might be an issue. Tbh, when playing Spiderman 2, i cant really tell there is a delay but when playing Call of Duty I notice it. My PS5 is hardwied and I am using a Ubiquity UniFi UAP-AC-PRO.

    After reading reviews and checking out videos, i was lucky to get this before it sold out. It has helped me put in 30 hours of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. I am a full time worker with a wife and kid who has a disability. I dont have to feel guilty about taking the only tv when the wife or kid wants to watch something. It is easy to set up and get working. Its very seamless when using it and the performance is great. My internet is 30 mbps and i have not had an issue with using it at home. Can be charged with the same cable for the PS5 remotes and have been able to play it for a little over and hour before i put it down to do other things. Its very comfortable just like the PS5 remotes. It also feels light but not too heavy. The volume is really loud for this particular unit. It has been a purchase i dont regret getting.
