Nah, it makes sense. He’s saying it’s a VERY specific piece of hardware. Hardcore gamers will hate it since it will not compare to playing from a PS5 but people like myself, married, not a lot of time, sharing the couch with my wife, I’m gonna love it. He’s saying there’s no in between for this hardware
any wifi will do as long as you got a good connection. I got mine for almost a year and I travel a lot, it works well. Just check the internet speed first
I love the portal ngl I love all handheld gaming consoles that’s probably the biggest failure in the portal it can’t really connect to other WiFi’s but everything is so fire nice videos too btw 👌🏿
It can connect to other wifis! I play from my work office and on my phone's hotspot. I travel a ton for work and love bringing my portal with me and connect to hotel wifi all the time. Love it a ton. Just wanted to share😁
I travel all over for work and hated calling hotel services to connect my ps5 to WiFi. Got a cheap router and solved the issue. Works in all Hilton, ihg, and marriott hotels.. I may buy the portal to see how it works leaving ps5 at home.
I do recommend it. Again it does need an internet connection but it does a lot better then when it first came out. It had an update that allowed you to use public wifi. The short answer is yes.
Been amazing at home so far. I love that I can sit out on my deck and enjoy it and my garden while gaming, too. Very interested to test it on my vacation in a few weeks over 2k miles from my home. They did the recent update so you can connect to public wifi now, but in many instances those will suck, so just tether your phone.
@@rodgerpeoria3040 worked very well actually. I was with family so I had decent wifi. I can't say what the experience would be with hotel wifi. One thing I would say from experience is every once in a while of it seems like your connections haven't been as good lately just restart your PS5. That seems to solve it.
@@rodgerpeoria3040weird, my reply didn't post, or somehow censored by YT, though can't imagine why Either way it worked well in vacation. I was on family wifi, so I can't say what it would be like at a hotel. If you do notice your connections start to get worse over all, try a restart on the PS5 itself. That usually works it out for me.
How is your PS5 connected to the internet and what kind of internet do you have at home? I have standard cable internet at home, and I found connecting my PS5 up directly to an ethernet cable made a huuuge difference in how smoothly the games ran as opposed to WiFi.
Never mind - I just went to the beginning of the video and saw you connected with a cable. Thanks for making this video! I’m looking forward to my next trip to see how the PS Portal works for me.
Using my iPad Air 5 via the PS remote app, I can connect to my PS5 from a friend’s house 13 miles away and have a fairly smooth experience. Meanwhile the PS Portal won’t connect at all giving me dns errors
Works well with a travel router...You need one of these to tap into hotel (etc) wifi and "get around" all the sign in nonsense to then connect to your PS5 back home...There's some good Reddits about how to do this (and even peeps doing it when traveling overseas using two travel routers so it "looks" like you are still in the US). Happy gaming.
not even go lie the ps portal is like buying a $200 controller with all them special features n mods to it only difference you got a screen and features. I bought one recently i like it t enough to keep it around cant wait till someone mod it
If Sony just marketed the PS Portal as PORTABLE PS5 PLAY ANYWHERE WITHIN HOME DEVICE, then it wouldn't receive so much hate. It's how most people use it and actually works perfectly if your wifi is setup correctly.
I haven’t tested mine away from home but its pretty solid connected locally. I only got one cause I dont wanna plug up my tv to the ps5 😅 I love my PlayStation U
I love the portal I never use my TV I just played it on the bed it's soo convinient Also any1 know how to connect while ure outside cuz i can't play anywhere else
Excellent video - the only reason I caved in and got an Xbox Series S to travel with and easily hooks up to hotel TVs - PlayStation 5 is always my preferred and if I was driving the new digital could possibly work but the Carbon Black S 5 is my go to and worth it IMO.
Dude what are you talking about? You just set the parameters…you said you either love it or hate it. But your “in between” so by definition there’s more options then just loving or hating it? Oh ok got it lmao smh 🤦♀️
I Don't Own One Yet Hell I Don't Own Other Models Of Portables But I Think That If You Have Your Cell Phone Connection Using WIFI And Hotspot And Perhaps A Router Or Two It Should Fix Issues And Perhaps Sony Will Upgrade To Download Load Storage Add Bluetooth And Browser,If Storage Is A Problem A Portable Hard drive For Storage Could Be Added
I hate the fact that you have to have a disk in the PlayStation in order to play games,,, you can’t just play all your game.. the disk must be in there.. if your away from home, you can only play one game?? How do you play other games on it?
It's 2024 and Sony are the leading brand for gaming consoles. Why is this a remote play device and not a portable.. Switch have managed it so why not them, it's just ridiculous need to hire better people.
"The portal is one of those things where you're either going to love it or you're going to hate it and I'm kind of in the middle of it". What????
right 😂

@@JoseKeepRunniing except he says he is in the middle so clearly there is a "in between "
Bruh
@@joaomilao4230you thinking too deeply into this.
Just use Bluetooth tethering, it connects your phone to the WiFi, and shares it to the portal. That way you can bypass web browser.
No Bluetooth
I travel for work and I’d like to use this just to play single gameplay games. Most of the hotels I stay at have really strong wifi
While ps portal can still connect over hotspot. The best experience will be on the same wifi network inside your house
Mine will never link to the PS5 if not on the same network...
any wifi will do as long as you got a good connection. I got mine for almost a year and I travel a lot, it works well. Just check the internet speed first
@@nathanwalker00002whats a good internet speed
@@nathanwalker00002you’re able to use your portal away from the house?

How do you play without your ps5? I got mine yesterday and it’s not letting me play even when my ps5 in rest mode
@user-ft7nu1ss7k did you connect it to your ps5? Maybe a restart of both could help
I love my PlayStation Portal

Works for me because I'm not a competitive player. I'm casual with all my single player games.
Do you play games away from home with it?
Yes I do. I've been traveling a bit more to see extended family and I bring it with me plenty.
I am thinking about getting one these holidays. I am mostly a single player games gamer. Do you recommend it then ?
I do recommend it. Again it does need an internet connection but it does a lot better then when it first came out. It had an update that allowed you to use public wifi. The short answer is yes.

@@potentatewags I’m going to be traveling outside the country for a month and I was wondering if it would be worth it to get one of these 😅
How do you tether your phone?
But i have a question tho. When you go out or travel is your ps5 off or in rest mode? Cuz i cant see myself travel and not close the ps5 🤷🏾♂️
Side note, whether widget on your iPhone. Need that
It’s called !weather in the App Store. That developer has other apps with that aesthetic too
There’s no way. You have the PS5 plugged in the AirBnB bc I have mine plugged in, rest mode, and I’m only 6 minutes away and I can’t connect!
Is there strong wifi in both places?? In your air bnb and where you’re at?
Love the style of your vids
it sucks like im 50 meters away from ps5 and im on hotspot and it lag

it sucks ive been home and i was like 50 meter away from ps5 and it lag as hell and disconnecting even when i was on hotspot
How does game pass work or ps plus. Because when I play on the cloud I get no noticeable lag and I’m hundreds of miles away from there servers.
Why does it link my to with it as well how do I turn that off
Love my portal. Relaxing in my back yard playing some games with a cup of coffee in the morning.
Using my iPad Air 5 via the PS remote app, I can connect to my PS5 from a friend’s house 13 miles away and have a fairly smooth experience.
Meanwhile the PS Portal won’t connect at all giving me dns errors
Just returned it. I liked it but lack of Bluetooth and I could use my fold 5 for the same thing
Crazy to play ps5 by the pool, fire
Can you play 2k on it fine? Against computer
? How can you keep your ps5 on rest mode but still play the portal? Every time I turn on the portal the ps5 turn on as well ???
Yea
I sure will get one. It looks great.
Can I use the portal on 4G Hotspot?
I rarely have an issue connecting to my ps5. Travel a lot and my portal plays no problem
What WiFi provider do you have?
Works well with a travel router...You need one of these to tap into hotel (etc) wifi and "get around" all the sign in nonsense to then connect to your PS5 back home...There's some good Reddits about how to do this (and even peeps doing it when traveling overseas using two travel routers so it "looks" like you are still in the US). Happy gaming.
So u can’t put your ps5 on rest mode and use the portal the system has to be on ??
You can
we got the same carry on case bro.. very sturdy case
It’s not portable if you can’t use it while on holiday, I’m looking at buying one for the aeroplane but it seems useless
Next month I will get PlayStation portal
Getting it on Black Friday or Christmas 2024.
not even go lie the ps portal is like buying a $200 controller with all them special features n mods to it only difference you got a screen and features. I bought one recently i like it t enough to keep it around cant wait till someone mod it

Wish everyone would get off “you need great net’s” booteh.. as this is common sense for this device.. 😅
You left the ps5 in NY?
Yep
Helpful

@@johnnybaboon8166 sad part is I had the digital ps5, I sold it and kept the one with the disc.. smh
@@CINEMAWORX I have the disc one too. But I feel your pain if you’ve already purchased a lot of these games physically.
@@johnnybaboon8166 I did.. smh lol
This dudes electricity bill is a ps5 every month 😂
“Shameless plug”
Just want one for the fuck of it , you know , love the video though
Unless you have a strong wifi where you are it is useless
thats slow wifi though
Bro you talk to much tell us something new that we don't know
You’re gonna love it or hate but in the end I(the content creator) am somewhere in the middle🤨👀?!
Why yall be doing this kinda nonsense

You know ps remote play is the same thing.? 😂😂
Worse review ever and waste of my time.
