I love my Portal when I’m home but outside of it I think it was a huge waste of money. I can’t connect it by using my hotspot and that’s the main reason I wanted it, to use it away from home
It wasn't designed to use away from home.😂
I've used mine in another state with my mobile Hotspot 😊
thats strange, mine works fine on my mobile hotspot too! What phone do you have?
Some network providers use NAT 3, i think, so this can stop you. Also, i have seen videos of people lanually typing in their hotspot SSID rather than just connecting from the wifi list, and that seems to have worked. To get the best out of mine out of the house, i set up port forwarding on my ISP router, and that has made a huge difference
@@purepsx same here , I’ll lose connection to the console once & a while but I expect that, especially at a hospital lol
I've got one, works fine for me, only use it in the same house as my PS5, so far.
Awesome! What games have you been enjoying playing on your portal?
While the battery life is certainly a concerning issue, I think people have unrealistic expectations of this device. It is a very niche product, has a very specific purpose. I don't even play on my PS5 anymore, just through the portal which is perfect for me. I have a fiber network, 1 GB download and upload; and the upload speed is the most crucial element to this device. So a fiber network is probably the best option for connectivity stability. I would like to see a game streaming option, even if it is a separate cost or higher tiered PS Plus expense. I don't even buy games anymore, just wait for them to be added to PS Premium and add them as available, but streaming certainly opens the amount of game options tremendously. Anyway, I wish people would have a better understanding of this device, it isn't what most of us actually want, it's for specific people. What we want is a true portable device and I think Sony is working on it and I believe we'll get our first look by the end of summer or early fall.
would you like a vita 2 for portable play of playstation games without having to stream the games?
I purchased the PS PORTAL strictly for use at work when I’m free. I work at a hospital and in most areas there’s no mobile network reception. You can only use the WIFI. I had no idea that there wasn’t a web browser on the PS PORTAL. $200 down the drain.😞 I’m praying 🙏🏾 for an update otherwise I’m going to have to return it.😢😢
No video streaming is not a big miss when you think of why it cost $200 & the Bluetooth latency, again why it’s $200 & not $4-$500 like steam deck & others
yeah I hope they add the video streaming in a future update! did you pick up a portal for yourself or give it a miss?
Nintendo switch fanboy alert 🤣
@@EnaTenkiyoGamer pretty random thought, seeing last Nintendo I had was the 64🤔🤷🏻♂️✌🏻🤡
Seeing I’m actually siding with the portal…
Good luck even connecting to a hotspot brought it with me on a work trip and hasn’t connected since I’ve left my house what a waste of money if you want it portable
That’s sucks, what kind of hotspot was it?
Iam using a 11inch tablet works great ,,same problem its the internet
Cool! What tablet are you using? Do you want to get a portal in the future?
@@purepsx aim using samsung A9+ snapdragon 695 i think
nice! playing any good android games recently too?
For the Bluetooth you can connect a USBC Bluetooth adapter to the back of the portal to use any earbuds including airpods
True but it would be cool if it was just build into the device i feel, have you been enjoying your portal so far?
I just bought my Portal for my birthday present later this month (will wait to open it till then). I have my PS5 set to use the 5GHz network while other stuff runs on the 2.4. I previously tested the Remote Play on my tablet using the PSPlay and Dualsense controller and it works great in my home. I was able to play a good bit of Resident Evil 2 Remake with no issues so I know if it works with the tablet I should have no issue with the Portal.
awesome! make sure you check out our accessories video for some cool stuff to protect your portal!
I only have 60mbps internet download speed
And my router is Archer ax23 and i bought it in walmart for 25$ only. I don't have any issue with the connection with my ps portal and no lag at all, It is very smooth to play 60fps.
That’s brilliant! What games have you been enjoying on your portal recently?
@@purepsx spider-man 2 and diablo 4
Had my since launch inhave 500 speed viber internet and have no issues
Awesome! What games have you been enjoying playing on your portal?
Mesh WIFI ftw.
I love mine but what I wish it had was a damn internet browser so I can use the hotel WiFi
True! I think they are worried about it being hacked if they put a browser on it! But yeah that would be awesome! WHat games have you been playing on yours?
@@purepsx right now I’m on a business trip in Miami FL
I’ve been playing helldivers when I have chance those quick 15 min mission are perfect
So you can play games outside the range of your houses wifi? I thought you can only play when it's connected to the same wifi as your ps5?🤔
Nope. You can play, provided your PS5 is in Rest Mode, on any wifi network. They don't have to be the same.
yeah it works on your mobile phone hotspot too, check out my video where i tested the portal out on vacation - ua-cam.com/video/t2V1R9iC9Oc/v-deo.html
Quick question since nothing has been mentioned in this video or previous videos for that matter or did I missed out on something? What I truly wanted to know is for those people with poor eyesight or are having hard time read font sizes on small screen... Is it feasible? Please let us know. Thank you and Happy Gaming.
Mines fine on my standard network using PS5 on WiFi 😊
Awesome! What games have you been enjoying the most on your portal?
A "ranDu"m thawt 🤔... ppl that have one, it may be wifi only, but take your device with you on the next haircut or lady gamers out there that own a ps5. Log into your device on your next visit and wait for the reaction 😆 😄 😂 🤣 😅
It's overpriced, extremely limited, ugly design and reeked of anti consumer practice all over it.
I got one on release planning to get a PS5 very soon.
Awesome what model of ps5 are you going to pick up?
@@purepsx I am waiting to see what the Pro’s design, if I don’t like it then will get the slim most probably without the disk drive I started to go digital towards the end of the PS3’s lifecycle and almost all my games on the PS4 pro are digital I did buy a couple of games when I bought the PS4 pro but since then my library has been digital.
Can you make a video about using a portable travel router like the gl inet to be used on hotels etc to bypass the captive portal / logins?
Been enjoying the hell out of this thing have an unlimited 5g+ data connection and have been tethering when not at home.. playing PS5 wherever I want is awesome! Gig internet at home with a wifi 6 mesh network works so great! Definitely situational, could see it being a bad time for someone with a bad home network.
Good to hear! What games have you been playing on your portal?
Honestly, I love mine. I did buy a really nice mesh WiFi router. My portal runs perfectly 95% of the time.
nice! what mesh router did you go for? glad its working well for you fam!
All my portal issues I had were solved by getting a cheap wireless router and only having my PS5 and portal on that network I don't need to mess with settings or unplugging the HDMI don't even need to change performance mode
amazing! what game have you been playing on your portal?
Do you have a seperate wifi plan for this new router or is it connected to your old router. If it is, how is it connected?
@@splashydiamond it's plugged in to my Internet service provider router via Ethernet then my PS5 to the 60$ wifi 5 router dlink 1200 series via Ethernet no separate plan or anything I think it comes down to bandwidth passthrough on lan u need like 740 MB/s for gta5 mine does 840ish and my portal doesn't leave my house so don't know if this solution works for on the go gaming
@@purepsx just finished burning shores expansion now about to start nfs unbound
Awww nice how was burning shores!? That’s on my backlog!
Love the portal. Always surprised how well it works compared to using the PS Remote play on my iPhone. Currently playing through NFS: Unbound and the gameplay feels amazing as if I am playing it off the PS5 itself. It does suck it has no Bluetooth but if it's for the reason of improving the remote play experience, that is okay.
Yea its an amazing bit of kit, I played Hell Divers 2 on it last night for hours and it was perfect! What games have you been enjoying on your portal?
If a 3rd party released the exact same thing but Android based for £200 I'd grab one. I have PC/Xbox/PS5, buying one streaming device when my phone and a backbone does all my devices and cloud/emulation on top of that for less money just makes this redundant to me. Or you can buy a Switch OLED and pay for it modding and get a lot more usability.
Cool! Make sure you sub to the channel as I’m working on a video that you might find very interesting!
I love mine. Use it at home with no issues.
Awesome! What games have you been enjoying playing on your portal?
@@purepsx hogwarts legacy and some street fighter 6.
I bought mine on day one release & I use it only when Im away for work in other countries & honestly Im extremely disappointed with it. The internet connection sucks & most of the times it disconnects & lags.
That sounds bad, did you contact support or return the device?
The home router is definitely the main problem for most people. You hit the nail right on the head. My Portal sucked until I went and bought a beast mode, top of the line WiFi 6 router. And I also plugged an Ethernet cable directly into my PS5, as you mentioned. Made all the difference in the world. My Portal runs just as smooth and reliably as the actual PS5 console now.
Literally you don't need a piece of a router I'm in Alaska I have 500 downloads be 20 upload speed and the default router that my internet provider gave to me which is about 70 to maybe 90 bucks if you look it up online no issues..
With me saying that I will say reading the comments on Reddit it seems like a lot of people are having issues until they go and buy a new router..
@@azarfe11Life25 Not all of us live in Alaska on top of a mountain, bud
glad its working well for you fam! What games have you been enjoying playing on your portal?
@@adam3797 lol You might want to visit Alaska, then you would realize how far behind they are compared to the low 48 states..
The last five to eight years they've gotten fiber which isn't available everywhere.
It cost $200 for a 2 gig download and 80 upload and it's not even fiber...
@@azarfe11Life25 My wife just took a vacation there back in August. She was GLAD to come home. I’m good, thanks.
What game is that your playing where your shooting the helicopter it looks like a matrix game also very helpful video
Thanks, did you pick up a portal? Yeah its the Matrix Awakens!
I love my playstation portal and I can use it away from home on my mobile hotspot😊😊😊
awesome! yeah its so good! What games have you been playing on it?
So I need to move my router and modem and PlayStation 5 on to a table.Get an Ethernet cable that are short,and connect the router modem to the PS5.I will not be able to hook it back up to the television if I move all of this stuff.Is that okay?Do I have to hook it back up to the TV to use the PlayStation Portal?
it doesnt need to be hooked up to the tv to be used with the portal
Hi, can you please tell me what was the game presented in your video , liked them too much , I also have the portal and adhore it .
Awesome! glad to hear you are enjoying your portal! At which time in the video was the game shown so I can get you the answer?
Do you think port forwarding is necessary to play the portal outside of home? gonna be leaving the US for london for a few months and want to be able to play the portal in the UK
I dont think so but might be worth doing anyways just in case as anything to help out why not? Worth giving it a try away from home first of all to see how it goes, if it works it should be fine when you go to London I would think
I bought on day one release & I use it only when Im away for work in other countries & honestly Im extremely disappointed with it. The internet connection sucks & most of the times it disconnects & lags.
I hope you have a better experience than I did when I was in London. I was able to connect to the wifi in my hotel in London but I was NOT able to connect in my hotel in Vienna
ah that sucks! Did you return it for a refund?
@@T-M-N-TNo! Your internet sucks. I’ve been away and used my phone’s hotspot for flawless gameplay experience.
I do want one. The most annoying aspect is I can't use a bluetooth headphone on it. WTF? I have an awesome set of B&W headphones that I can plug into though. I would like this mostly for traveling purposes, so that's a huge plus. I don't do multi-player gaming or streaming so don't care about that stuff. I love the recommendation of an ethernet cable for home use if you don't have a strong router. Ultimately, this is the best review out there. Thanks so much!
I know I really wish they had Bluetooth too but like I said after a while you don’t miss it if you can use your wired ones! Will you be picking one up? Thanks for the support & kind words! 😎👍
@@purepsx I will be picking one up within the month hopefully. I like your recommendations for accessories. I am very happy one can use these while traveling. I recently picked up a PS5 to play Ghost of Tsushima as I can't play it on my Xbox. I have missed playing God of War and Unchartered series as well
10 seconds in whats the game your playing
The matrix awakens! Did you pick up a PlayStation portal?
@@purepsx yeah I really like it
@@djtaz316 awesome! What games you playing on it?
@@purepsx Spiderman 2 & WWE 2k24
Check your upstream, even with an ethernet connected PS5. If the UPLOAD is weak, you'll get lagged gameplay on the portal - even in your own home. I upgraded my cable wireless (which included a better UPLOAD) and...problem solved - no matter where in the world you are, as long as the WiFi DOWNLOAD is better than 15mb.
Awesome, is yours working well? What games have you been enjoying playing on your portal?
That is completely false. When on the same network, besides initial checkin with Sonys servers, the portal does not use the internet. All streaming is done within the lan. If you are having issues, it’s the network.
why the feck would you play sony in a coffee shop , just stay home and drink a coffee your already tuned out of reality dont go out in public and look like a loner , what a stupid idea , i see its main use is if you dont own 2 tv's and the wife or kids want the tele you still have access to your sony , seems to be the main reason , if your single dont get one just use your tele , just my two cents on the topic
LoL. I bought one to use while going to bed and hanging out in the living room with family while the kids have the TV. My PS5 is in my guitar room though, so I can play it anytime. This just allows me to be able to have family time too. I've actually done almost 100% of my gaming on it now.
haha same I do all my PS5 gaming on my portal pretty much now too! What games have you been playing on it?
Bought one last week. The lagging makes it totally unusable.
have you tried any fixes? Check out my video it might help - ua-cam.com/video/OHHbj8ZREoI/v-deo.html
im on EE in the UK and you cant connect to mobile hotspot its stupid
thats strange! did you contact EE?
What would you recommend doing first in regards to buying a WiFi repeater to hard wire the ps5 or upgrading my home router to a gaming router? I have a very good download speed of around 700-900mbs. Maybe the standard router isn’t very good?
Thanks
how is the portal running on your network just now? worth looking into powerline adapters or extenders if the router is decent? Ideally a mesh setup would be the best as you get great covereage all over your house, maybe worth looking into one
@@purepsx it runs really well most of the time, like when I’m in certain rooms close to my router (in the hallway) but when at the far end of my house it lags and sometimes drops.
A mesh setup may be the answer to allow a strong signal throughout.
Thanks
I got one i use in the house as my ps5 is connected to main tv in the house so i still game while sitting in the same room as wifey can watch her crap winner winner chicken diner as they say 🤔👍🤣
Haha it’s ideal for that! What games are you playing on it just now?
Farming simulator 22, Snowrunner, Truck & logistics, remaster tomb rider 👍🤣
They needed to be called out. Hope there is new firmware update soon for the portal
Did you pick up a portal? How have you been findining it so far?
@purepsx I pre-ordered it off Amazon and I love it. Sony just gotta fix the patches for microstutter
What game is that he’s playing?
hey, At which time in the video was the game shown so I can get you the answer?
Hmmmmmmm, I think I'll give the portal a big miss for now then.
I’d honestly recommend it I play mine everyday! But again that’s just me it might not work as well for you depending on your internet setup, would you like a vita 2 for portable play of playstation games without having to stream the games?
Now PS Vita 2, Ian what should have come out before the Portal along time ago, yes I would, myself and my friend were the very first people to grab a vita day one at launch, we both took days from work to grab one lol
aww the Vita is STILL so good, really hope the noise around a new one is true!
@@kelvinpayne5224 sorry but ps vita 2 is all your fault fot not buying the ps vita in 2011. The market has spoken kid hahaha
Hey man I just thought a PlayStation portal. I cannot get it to work away from home. I have a hotspot that I bought! It’ll connect to the psp but it won’t let me turn on the PlayStation 5
Help
thats strange, does it give an error message? maybe your network provider does not allow tethering devices to your phone with the contract you have? some phone networks are funny about it
I’m not buying the buds
I used this channels idea and used a Bluetooth transmitter. I already had one. But I use my regular ear buds and works perfectly. Now I haven't tested out my house, but the link in his video for accessories works.
Awesome glad its still working well! Any other accessories you are looking to pick up soon?
@purepsx I got em all. I chose a all black silicone case, and a matte finish screen prot3ctor so no glare. And as I said the rf transmitter and thumbs ticks covers. I'm set and also did the settings that you recommended. You were spot on and I haven't played my p5 since just the portal. Thanks for the great videos I subscribed as well keep up the good work
I just purchased a Bluetooth transmitter
There is one problem you didn't mention, the stutters that happen every 10 seconds, even on a perfect network condition, all portals experience this issue, but not everybody notice it
Really I hadn’t ever noticed that?
Uso o meu numa boa .. nunca tive esse problema tá falando bobagem
A mesh wifi with high data transfer up and down. Boom. No problems. My internet down is 1 gig, upload 50 mb. Away from home the same data transfer is needed.
nice! it’s ideal setup for portal! What games are you playing on it just now?
What game were you playing at 0:19?
Matrix
Yeah its the Matrix Awakens
Anybody got the click problem wit the sticks? Its so annoying
No not me, What problem is that?
I do, its when you have the stick turned in an certain angle and when u move it a little bit it makes a click sound
damn that sucks, i hadnt heard of that one, have you contacted Sony about it?
@@purepsx Ive tested oder 10 portals and euch one had sich defect... it sucks and it is a production failure.
My luck ive bought the portal for 130eur in ebay
Better just getting a switch oled lol - way more games and none of these issues 👍
Got a swith OLED too, its awesome, been loving super mario wonder lately! what games have you been playing on yours?
Stop being a Nintendo switch fanboy 😂
Switch is 30fps and underpowered 🤣
Switch doesn't get tekken 8, Final Fantasy VII Rebirth and FF XIV Online hahahha
Tried almost everything, changing settings etc etc.
it’s wired with an Ethernet now too but still get a slight bit of lag , which just makes it unplayable.
Contacted PlayStation support and they say a discrepancy in the refresh rate between the ps5 and the portal could be the issue.
Hopefully an update release can sort it
What is your upload speed on your network? The Portal needs a minimum of 10 mb/s, but in reality it needs to be quite higher. If you don't have fiber try seeing if it is available in your area. Also, change your PS5 network settings to use 5 Ghz.
thats interesting sony said that, can a factory reset help with that?
Speed is 75 download and 19 upload so fairly good. Should be good enough in my opinion.
Yes very interesting mate. The portal refreshes at exactly 60hz the PS5 refreshes at 59.94, this little difference apparently causes this slight stutter as they re-sync with one another
I’m guessing an update that locks the devices exactly at 60hz with each other 👍🏻
Did playstation support really told you that?, or you saw it on reddit?, please tell me is true, because if they acknowledged the issue there is hope they release a fix.
There will always be input delay. Thats the nature of playing a stream.
A waste of money
Ah damn, did you return your Portal after using it and thinking it wasnt worth the price?
@@purepsxits not worth the money, 200 $ + 200$ head phones! With 400$ u dont get even proper internet connection, no net browser, bluethooth... nothing. This portal is one more money sucking tool for Sony. Pay a lot, get little to return!
lol still sold out. I love mines. Play my shit miles away from my ps5 with my phone hotspot and I face zero issues.
Stay butthurt that it sold out continuously Nintendo switch fanboy 🤣
A waste of human oxygen and comment lmao
Obviously yall got McDonald's wifi but the latency is still trash even with a good Internet I won't accept anything under 7ms
Ah damn, did you return your Portal then since it wasnt fast enough for you?
@@purepsx nah I seen the specs why would I waste money it's not 120hz and the latency isn't good enough to play somewhat competitively its 2024 we have the technology to have a 120hz screens and mini game consoles in our pockets why would they not add this to the portal if the PS5 supports it also moonlight and Nvidia game stream already have this if you have a PC you can utilize the 120hz screen on your phone and even stream in 4k 120 and the latency is actually playable in competitive games the PlayStation streaming app only allows 720p 60 and the latency is garbage and they only do this to try and force you to buy this garbage product
Stay butthurt about portal living rent free in your head Nintendo switch fanboy. Touch grass and get a job kid who is poor to afford everything including a ps portal lol
@wcghavii7625 Have fun coping that you are salty about a third sony portable after the ps vita hahaha
You just mad that sony didn't make a ps vita 2 when the vita in 2011 failed because you don't buy enough. Speak with your wallets, not your keyboards kid lmao
