Bought it and never regretted it. Especially after latest update good job Sony
What did the latest update unlock?
@@GearsAndTechmore issues
@@GearsAndTech it’s much smoother it still stutters but it’s less and latency has improved
@@houman2009 stay butthurt to sony portables Nintendo switch fanboy 😂
@@EnaTenkiyoGamer tell us more about how you feel😭😂🤣🤧😂
This is definitely a game changer for dads for sure. I have multiple ps5 and each ps5 has different games in them and with the portal I can choose which ps5 I want to play and that is awesome and the graphics are insane.
True
Never had a problem with my portal. It's awesome 👍
Glad to hear it
What a pure xbox fanboy cope "please dont buy this sony product" lmaooooooo
Lol. I thought I made my alegience clear
Does Spawn point know you’re using his video clips to show this off?
I think so
Why caant u use i ternet on the playstation, or the netflix on playstation
Can it be used with PS plus premium?
yes. but still needs to stream from your ps5
My Protal worked on and off, I returned it with in 2 weeks. I ordered a Steam Deck oled 3 mounts later. My Steam games and PS remote play.
lol yea right.. so let me get this straight. You spent 7-800 bucks to play steam games that don’t even run great on your device and I know this personally because I own an rog ally. Or you bought it to stream? Etheir way you’re dumb doesn’t matter how you look at itn
That's what I did. Except I got a legion go
Someone is still butthurt that ps portal is selling and you cry about it hahaha
Waiting for mine to come into the mail today 🤷🏻♂️
Sweet
Maybe it's a U.S issue that I've noticed with problems, I only have 70gb with Sky here in the U.K and works flawlessly with no latency and it's on WiFi not even a wired connection, as said maybe it's a U.S internet infrastructure issue?
Big brother watching causes issues with latency and ping
I've had the PlayStation portal for about 2 weeks now worked okay at first had to mess around some settings Make sure my Wi-Fi was running okay after the newest update a few days ago definitely been running excellent. and if you want the sound core VRP 10 Bluetooth with dongle just plug it into your PlayStation 5 directly
If you're close enough that works
@@GearsAndTechworks long distance I had mine on in the garden opposite side of house with thicks walls....didn't stutter
Yup I am one of them sadly just bought it last Friday and my internet was down as well and still down haven’t been able to use it yet but so far not liking it but I’ll hold on 2 it
Give it a try. If it works for you then it works good
@@GearsAndTech I will do that as soon as that reconnect are Wi-Fi construction ppl cut a few fiber optic cables and 1 of them was ours ! accident thy say but anyways just playing the waiting game now thanks for ur info and advice.
I just watched this video after purchasing the portal😅
Its not perfect but its perfect for me😊
Glad to heat
Just ordered one too. Accept it for what it is for use around the house or in bed & it's perfect. With most people having iPad or whatever with bigger screens, who cares about watching Netflix on this thing LoL. Why would I surf the internet on this thing? Why would I want to only use it as a standalone controller with my PS 5? Wired headphones are still widely available so who cares about that either? The first month's video reviews showed everyone exactly what it was so why are people still acting surprised? This thing is going to get a lot of use from me because I accept it for what it is instead of complaining about what it is not. Game on 👍
@@beelikemizu604 you couldn’t have said it any better. I don’t know what it is that people don’t get about this device.
Man, my shoulders are wide so I just wanted to use this as a wide controller, like a Nintendo Switch HORI SplitPad controller.
It'll do that
HI I had a Mad Moment and Caved In to buying one , I just use it occasional in bed. I'm lucky enough to have 1 gig isp so hopefully it will be ok
Yeah, I have 1 gig as well.
I have a similar issue I bought it and it sits in a box, hopefully in the near future I get the PS5.
Yeah
@@GearsAndTech I bought the device knowing that I needed a PS5, however I didn’t want the PS5 just yet because I am still enjoying games on the PS4, I will consider getting the PS5 in the near future depending on my situation.
Did you use spawn poiints footage instead of your own during this video 🤣🤣
My editor gets footage as needed to help show what we are talking about
@@GearsAndTech stay butthurt that Playstation portal lives rent free in your head 😂
I ordered one and I’m looking forward to trying it out. You should know what it is and what it does ahead of time. Its your own fault if your not happy with its functionality. Do some research first.
I'm pretty sure I know exactly what it is and what it does
I was saying it seems a lot of people are confused though
Then why did you get one? Apparently you were confused if you’re selling it.
Mine is fantastic no latency works flawlessly, I have noticed that most of Issue's are owner's in the U.S I'm in the U.K and I don't know anyone here with problems, maybe the Amarican internet is designed differently, I only have 70gb here and no hard wired connection WiFi only and works great 👍
Internet is better over there
Bought the Portal and i love it,
Never liked the backbone plus my phones battery was getting so’ hot, and my phone is for texting and picking up calls 😂, so’ i love my PS Portal , just hotspot and go…
Honestly i was super skeptical and hated the idea of this portal.
I barely like remote play on the backbone , the quality sucked and was super uncomfortable.
I bought this yesterday and blew me away! Make sure you connected to 5ghz .the quality is unbelievable and i have been playing non stop, i even returned my ROG ally , the graphics are much better on the portal.
I was the same. But found the legion go a suitable alternative
@GearsAndTech yes the legion go is dope too!I have one as well but I have been playing more on the ps portal for me the graphics look much better.
You cant use it at mcdonalds??? If youre at mcdonalds THAT much you probably need to re😮evaluate your life...
Totally valid point. But sometimes you just need to game
😂
Its ok for me. The problem isnt necessarily the portal but, you need GREAT internet to play away from home and that's my issue.
Yeah it's hard to find good internet that isn't saturated
still planning to buy 😅 in marketplace they low price it up to 120euro gonna check all the review like this 😂
Marketplace is a great place to buy
Sorry, the problem with the Portal is that it's not meant for everyone. But for who it's made, they love it. It's a niche product. People who don't need it hate it! That doesn't make it a bad product.
The reason it doesn't have a random Bluetooth headset support is because every bluetooth headset has a different version of Bluetooth. And ensuring the sound quality remains top notch means restrictions.
That's a weak reason to not support bluetooth
It's only about protectionism
Not to sound harsh, but Sony should be absolutely ashamed of themselves for this thing. Wii U did it better. I understand the logic, but for $200, this thing should work flawlessly. I got one a few days ago, and the stick drift is awful, and when I try to scroll down a menu with the directional pad it acts like the buttons are stuck and it scrolls too far up or down. If anyone has a fix for this, please share, I have the current update and even completely reset it and it still does it.
Sounds like connection issues. Try optimizing your ps5 and portal wifi to make sure you're not experience lag which feels like stuck buttons and drift
If you could play like the steam deck this thing would be amazing
Yes
Normally when I do Remote Play on my iPad, it's pretty good. But yesterday it lagged so much that I couldn't use it at all. I had to go upstairs to my PS5 and play directly (I was trying to play in the same house, just 1 floor below, so the distance wasn't an issue). I don't know what the issue was, but the Remote Play yesterday was really bad.
Weird. But also typical for a lot of people
If I could install a few games on it I would probably buy one.
That would be cool
Playstation PORTAL. I mean, that word describes it perfectly what it is. Some people need dictionaries I guess 😂
This guy is just doing clickbait for money 😂😂😂
It's surprising how many people don't realize the purpose is in the name.
I understand what it is. But many do not
Not nearly enough money my friend. I could make more selling my body on the weekend
@@EnaTenkiyoGamer Not really, everything he said is true and it makes sense. I own one and I am a bit disappointed, but I will not get rid of it for historical/collection purposes.
@@GearsAndTech someone is butthurt to a sony portable 🤣
Lol there’s nothing confusing about it if you can read u know what it does. Jees click Bait at its best
I'm not saying I'm confused. I'm saying as I have it for sale it's obvious people are confused
The only ppl ik that have had trouble with the portal is because they had crappy internet and no gaming router. so basically your vid says portal does exactly what sony says it will do. thx love mine
Yes. It does what you think it will
I like playstation, I like Sony (sometimes) but ain't no way I'm dropping $200 on this thing. I'd rather use that $200 to buy a switch lite
You're going to love one of our future videos that are coming out really soon.
Just like many others. This item has solved my dad issue.
I hear you
@GearsAndTech no you don't Nintendo switch fanboy 🤣
I put mine in the box too. I don't mind the low bitrate streaming all that much, but the constant stutter is just not acceptable. I tried two different router setups, hardwired the PS5, port forwarding and lots of other tricks, but nothing solved it. Unless and until Sony fixes this issue, it's a no go for me. Unfortunately, it seems Sony won't even bother looking at the issue.
Probbaly not. Too many variables
i sold my portal earlier than you
Sweet
Steamdeck > ps portal
Yes
Bro I want to watch your videos but the ads are over the top. Shame
What do you mean? Like too many ads?
@@GearsAndTech yeah. It’s like every 15 seconds. Just your channel too. Mad.
Shocking you can’t watch youtube and movies on your gaming accessory. The portal does what it says on the tin. Don’t tell people w(at to buy and what not to buy. If I bought products by reviews I’d never buy anything.
There are a lot of great products out there,any worry buying.
If this one works for you then I'm happy for you.
Better buy a device with better wifi connectivity, It turns out the worst portable remote play.
Yes
It's the best remote play device by a mile.....loads of tech reviews will tell you that
Switch lite for the same price and better 😊
Except switch games aren't that good
Very good device. I call
Cap on the sissies that say otherwise.
No cap
Purchased it through Walmart, had it delivered yesterday........and just returned it today. Really wanted to like it too but my Steam Deck OLED offers so much more.
Oh yeah, if you have a steam deck already it's the better option
Love mine, no connection issues with standard WiFi in my home and my mobile hotspot. For £200 its a great bit of kit.
Thanks for sharing. I really wanted to love mine
@@GearsAndTech Nintendo switch fanboy alert hahaha
Lower display to 720p works great
That would help for sure
Utter bollocks
It's not that bad. It's just not for me
Its awesome at your in home network but not so good outside the house for me
Yes
Yep! That's why I'm returning it
Not true at all but ok
The PS Portol is another Sony pile of garbage. You have remote Play which you can use on any phone tablet or PC. PS Portall can't do online streaming da, cloud streaming no. no Bluetooth,, and can't use on demand apps. portal has old WiFi 5 ps5 has WiFi 6 da. To Sony fanboy s. It's £200 pile of crap, Use your phone ect you already have.
Yes. There are other options
Your a oversensitive person bro tha device is amazing like dude its user error if you cant get it to work thats your problem its made for you to play your games bro not be a freaking computer
Probbaly true
You probably don’t know what the word “portal” means.
Oh, I do
Why it don’t just have the Wi-Fi that’s already connected to the ps5 connect to the portal instead of having new Wi-Fi connection if I’m away from home😒
Like a direct connection? It's a good idea, but limits the use then.
