I would suggest to wait for a lower price but if you want it so bad now then this will save you a few dollars comparing to the RRP of $329.

    Let me know when an OLED version comes out

    • Odin on 03/02/2024 - 13:26

      The screen is actually phenomenal. I'm normally a person who is OLED or nothing, but the portal screen is comparable to the switch OLED. It's that good.

      • beardelune on 04/02/2024 - 09:19

        Yeah agreed; very nice for an LCD

  • seeknsearch on 03/02/2024 - 09:49

    $150 plus back buttons. As someone who suffers from cts, back buttons helps in gaming.

    To anyone, just go out and buy a tablet/phone, a controller phone clip and a controller. This is no different than the Remote Play app and DigitalFoundry tested the latency and quality differences vs the Remote Play app and found there was no difference.

    • The Value on 03/02/2024 - 10:34

      There is a different between this and unofficial apps…it's worse.

      PSPlay is way better on Android and Chiaki is way better on Steam Deck.

      • unifex on 03/02/2024 - 17:58

        ugh wish id known that before i bought the portal

        • unifex on 07/02/2024 - 22:32

          Tried it. Its pretty hard to get working doesn't seem to work for remote play away from the home.

          The PS Portal is really easy to use.

    • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 11:11
      +3

      Because the remote play app and portal use the same crappy setup. If you're playing on mobile as the above said, buy the app PSPlay and you'll see how much better it is. It's not even close.

      Don't know why they don't just hire the creator and implement all his shit, big businesses I guess

      • Telios on 03/02/2024 - 13:39

        I had no idea there was a 3rd party app that let you do this.

        I went and bought it and it really is miles faster than the crappy Sony app wtf lol

        • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 15:47

          Yep, it's night and day

    • Odin on 03/02/2024 - 13:26

      nah

  • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 09:58

    Just a heads up, the portal has 1/2 a second of audio delay when compared to the source, yet the video is basically 1:1. This is a best case cokkdcfij scenario.

    Weirdly enough this does not happen with the PSPlay app on mobile and it's 1:1 with the TV, I'll probably return mine due to this and just use an OLED steam deck moving forward for remote play.

    • Circly on 03/02/2024 - 10:04

      That's weird. What about audio viia the 3.5mm audio jack?

      • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 10:27

        Same thing with headphones.

    • JMxoxo on 03/02/2024 - 10:09
      +2

      Really? That would drive me up the wall lmao

      I haven’t watched any reviews, had any mentioned such a wild audio delay too?

      • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 10:48

        It's noticeable when having it next to the source with both sounds on, most people probably wouldn't even know it's there because they can't even tell (like how sooo many people can't tell the difference between 30 and 60 fps)

        Issue for me personally, is now that I know it's there it's going to eat at me like bad lip syncing on dubbed movies haha

        • Telios on 03/02/2024 - 13:40

          I can't believe people don't notice.

          I've stopped watching entire series because the dub was off by a quarter or half second

        • Goremans on 04/02/2024 - 23:20

          Lets be real, only crazy ppl can't tell the difference between 30 and 60 FPS!

    • robbiey on 03/02/2024 - 10:32
      +1

      I would suggest your setup has this delay and not the device itself.

      I'm pretty sure any performance issues are based on the network of the user that the PS5 is on and also what network the Portal is on.

      • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 10:38
        +2

        As I said, this is exclusive to the Portal. Perfectly fine on the PSPlay app. Even tried it on my laptop and it's fine, so it's not a setup issue. I'm also a network administrator so I've forwarded every port remote play even touches.

        It's a limitation of the device, or the protocol used. If they allowed the bitrate to be changed, it may fix it but I doubt they ever will.

        • robbiey on 03/02/2024 - 10:52
          +2

          I would have thought this would be widely reported in every review?

          Hope it's fixable via updates. I'm looking to get this at some stage so hopefully they fine tune it.

          • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 11:06
            +2

            @robbiey: Most people won't care, and most review are paid so is what it is.

            I haven't seen a single one side by side with sound on to compare, as when people think of input lag, they think of video.

            • robbiey on 03/02/2024 - 11:12

              @naedtrax: Is the lag across all audio do you know?

              As in have you tried 3.5mm jack or even a Pulse Headset? I have the Pulse Explore earbuds, would be interested in seeing if that makes any difference.

              • naedtrax on 03/02/2024 - 11:19

                @robbiey: Lag is through the jack aswell, I don't have the explores anymore as I returned them as they didn't fit my ears at all unfortunately.

                I don't see it changing the audio unfortunately, again I'm sure most people can deal with this delay, but it is there

  • Kammi on 03/02/2024 - 10:08

    This is like the wii u right?

    • JMxoxo on 03/02/2024 - 10:09

      Long story short, basically.

      • Circly on 03/02/2024 - 10:16

        Nope. It's not.

    • 9674784 on 03/02/2024 - 10:36

      No, the Wii U broadcasts it's own signal to the handheld and didn't require a router or internet connection.

      Absolutely unforgivable Sony didn't do the same.

      • Circly on 03/02/2024 - 11:53

        Also the Wii U actually plays games either physically and digitally. This is purely streaming. Which is spotty at best.

        • 9674784 on 03/02/2024 - 20:25

          No different to the PS5 having digital or physical but it needs wifi and internet which is (profanity) disgraceful in 2024 given the WiiU did this better a decade ago.

    • Magical Sound Shower on 03/02/2024 - 18:20

      If you mean playing your games at home without a TV, then yes it is the same. It's not as good as the Wii U did it as it doesn't have custom hardware so it's reliant of the quality of your home Wi-Fi.

  • Damannation on 03/02/2024 - 10:15

    I've been looking at the Backbone one and waiting for it to go back down to $120. Still seems a better option than these.

      Few on gumtree for half that.

      • Damannation on 03/02/2024 - 23:50

  • SydStrand on 03/02/2024 - 13:12

    Other than old Sony proprietary shenanigans, no reason this shouldn't support standard Bluetooth headphones. I suspect they must be digging very deep in the old parts bin for this to have WiFi 5 when the rest of the market is transitioning from WiFi 6 to 6E and 7.

    • EnterTheShiftKey on 04/02/2024 - 17:23

      It's the "no bluetooth audio for Switch" all over again.

  • ummmz85 on 03/02/2024 - 16:28

    PS Portal

    Best way to sum it up is either you hate or love it.

    I love it, previously travelled with an iPad/Controller/Backbone One, so this just makes it simplier.

    Relies heavily on network and now the kids can have the main TV full time while I game anywhere in/out the house. (Mainly play single player games)

  • HunterDes on 03/02/2024 - 18:51

    Regardingthe alternative of just using a phone and the app, do the ps5 controller and Android devices pair flawlessly for renote play or is it still an issue?

    You’re better off saving $100-200 more & buy 64GB steam deck LCD model or even score 256GB model. With Chiaki or Chiaki4Deck you’ll get superior performance, better bitrate stream controls, resolution adjustments, custom key bindings, and you’re not constrained to PS only ecosystem.

    • BigPeeper on 04/02/2024 - 08:00

      Where are you buying a steam deck for $120?

      • flashi007 on 04/02/2024 - 09:34

        Think they meant 100-200 dollars more than this deal.

        • BigPeeper on 04/02/2024 - 16:05

          Makes sense. $100-$200 isn’t a small…

    • Circly on 04/02/2024 - 11:58

      I agree Steam Deck can do the same thing and much more.

  • Drj55 on 04/02/2024 - 10:27

    I have a S23 Ultra and razor plugin backbone thing. The issue I find is that the phone screen is just a bit small for on screen text. Particularly noticeable on single player adventure games with lots of quest info. I hoping the bigger portal screen will make that easier.

    Also kind of worried about performance. As people of said the unofficial PSPlay app is so much better than Sony's. Even still, with my Ps5 plugged into lan and my phone pretty much under a ceiling unifi AP I still get streaming artefacts which seem to increase with game session. Will this work flawlessly?

  • EnterTheShiftKey on 04/02/2024 - 11:08
    +1

    I have this. I like it, but cannot recommend it to anyone as it is a single purpose device.

    I might return it and get a Meta Quest 3 instead as it may offer better experience for remote play than this. if anyone else tried this, please let me know as Im very interested in the whole MixedReality thing.

  • sandman20104159 on 07/02/2024 - 09:30

    so apart from a built in screen, whats the differance between this and a backbone? at least backbone is $120 slot your phone in and bam, remote play over my data.

    • Odin on 08/02/2024 - 10:01

      This feels like a really quality product. the controls are the same as the dual sense. Full feedback triggers. Screen is huge. Whole thing is solid. You can hold it from on side one handed and the whole thing still feels incredibly solid. No flimsiness
