The Playstation Portal is finally here and I’ve spent every spare minute testing it in as many places as possible. This is my Playstation Portal Review, it covers the following:
How well does it work at Home?
What kind of network do you need?
How stable is the Playstation Portal?
How well does it work on mobile data?
Does it work on public WiFi?
Does the portal work away from home?
Can you use it whilst commuting?
Is the Playstation Portal worth it?

The Playstation Portal is a handheld device that connects to your Playstation 5 and streams whatever games are on there directly to the Portal. It’s a divisive piece of tech with people either loving or hating it.
This review is less about the hardware and specifications and more about the experience and convenience of having a dedicated device for remote play. The biggest question being… Does the Playstation Portal offer a better experience than just playing on your phone or other devices via the free remote play app?

Thank you so much for all the love on this video, it's absolutely made my year! I'm still using the Portal most days and am still thoroughly enjoying it, it's by no means perfect but it's certainly earned it's nickname of 'The Dadstation'!

Best review I’ve seen yet. Well rounded and balanced. Would love to be able to have one but didn’t preorder as I didn’t think they’d be this popular & I missed out on the restock on Wednesday. I had it in my basket, clicked to pay & while it was processing, it went out of stock! I wonder how many of these units sold are by bots and scalpers hoping to make profit but I won’t pay them over RRP for it as it only encourages them.

It's definitely a win as far as convenience goes. Some game play on it better than others, GT7 I find a bit fiddly with the smaller sticks compared to the full size dual sense ones.

@pooger7778 6 месяцев назад
@@TheGameFatherUK it’s funny, I’ve been playing a lot of gt7 on the portal and for me it’s been fine! I honestly don’t notice the stick size all that much. I did watch some videos on gta and someone mentioned when using a controller joystick to press forward continually then roll the stick left and right to turn, I can say that made a really big difference for me! Last time I played a GT game was on ps2 I think and I’m pretty sure I just used the dpad. Most games have felt really good, with the exception of destiny pvp and cyberpunk. While cyberpunk is passable, online multiplayer on such a small screen and even with a tiny amount of input delay can really be felt! But for $200 it’s been an awesome experience, it’s so nice to sit in the living room with my family and still play something in the background. Since my phone is an iPhone mini remote play was way too small on that screen, and my other option was my MacBook Air but that’s just way too many moving pieces and I rarely did it for that reason. Portal for me was a great purchase.

I think there is a misunderstanding in regards to the Networkspeedtests. Mbps (MegaBITS per sec) != MBps (MegaBYTES per sec) BYTES is a unit of data composed of eight binary digit (8 bits). So for example: the roughly 100 Mbits measure on the mountainside are actually 100/8 MBits which is roughly 12MBytes per second and not 100 MBytes per second as mentioned in the video.

For the price double it and give us the portal pro basically a portable digital ps5 1440p oled display 1 tb internal storage with ability to upgrade the storage . 6-8 hr battery life . And ability to replace the sticks or use Hall effect sticks and triggers . I would gladly pay 399-499 for that they should call it the portal pro or re brand PlayStation vue to this potential handheld of mine . Or simply call it the ps go aka PlayStation go

Well, I followed your steps with the Portal and setting up static IPs from the linked video. Now I have a much better experience within my home network. Also, I set up the Portal's network manually. Much smoother now and less lagging. Thank you.

Great video and sums up my experience with the Portal well. I can't emphasize enough that the simplicity/convenience of the Portal is what elevates it above other devices I have that support remote play. As demonstrated in the video, you just wake the Portal + press the PS button and it connects to the PS5. That reason alone has me using this device way more than my other remote play capable devices. I'm actually playing my PS5 more than ever now. It's also a much more comfortable device than my other handhelds (Steam Deck, Switch, Retroid Pocket, etc.). I plan to only use the Portal on my home network. I have a mesh wifi system with four hubs around my home + workshop. I have a PS5 connected to one of the wifi hubs via ethernet. With this setup, I'm having a great experience playing anywhere in my home.

I’m having a blast with my PSP 2023 whether I’m at home, work, and dining at Panera for example. 😂 I initially couldn’t connect to one of two PS5s I have at home due to it being solely connected via wifi; however, I purchased a decent WiFi extender from Amazon during Cyber Monday and now it connects flawlessly anywhere at home. The wired PS5 connects instantly to my Portal, naturally.

Thank you very much for this review! I think I will buy a backbone one for the remote play. Since I'm not going to use it in my home, I think that it's more convenient for the Wi-Fi and the data situation.
