You should look into what happened to Vita and PSP to see what will happen to this one. The current Sony leadership is not the best. "It will be dead in a month."
It's very underpowered. Basically all it can do well is stream video and inputs (barely). There's much cheaper emulation handhelds that can outclass it.
You got some good points. Linus did start out saying a lot of really good things that he goes against now. I think it is because he grew his channel to large. Needing to pay all those employees really changes things.
I have a few points to make regarding this video: 1. The Wii U was also used in Joysound Karaoke parlors in Japan, where one could select which song they want to sing to on a Wii U Gamepad. Additionally, Kirisaki Chitoge from Nisekoi (an anime that has its tenth anniversary in 2024) made a guest appearance in Super Mario Maker 1 for Wii U. 2. The PlayStation Portal's cost in Japan is roughly 3000-4000 yen less than the regular Switch, and this is because of the weakening yen as of 2024-01-15. At this point, even the regular Switch is a better buy in Japan, while in the US, the Switch Lite is a better buy. 3. The Steam Deck, ROG Ally, Legion GO, and Logitech G Cloud can also stream games from not only your PS5, but also your PS4 thanks to Chiaki. Chiaki can also send wakeup packets to your PS4 or PS5, so if you're going out of town, you can leave your console in sleep mode and turn it on remotely from your accomodation's Wi-Fi. 4. Many people have made portable PS4s on UA-cam, which plays PS4 games natively. However, it might be too heavy to use practically, and the short battery life (1 hr or less) is a concern. 5. As of 2024-01-15, the price of a PlayStation Plus Premium yearly subscription in Japan does not exceed 100 USD. This is also because of the weakening yen. Meanwhile, Americans have to pay the 60 USD Sony Tax, with applicable state sales taxes on top of the Sony Tax.
In fairness to him those are amazon affiliate links that amazon compensates the channel for, not sony. You could make the argument that a positive video on a new sony product would encourage more affiliate purchases and therefor he's insensitivised to lie but that would be grouping in A LOT of tech reviewers.
The funny thing is that the ps vita did the exact same thing that ps portal does. You can use both, the ps3 and ps4 with the vita in the same way as the portal with ps5, pair your console to the vita and voilà, you can use 2 different gens consoles with just your vita if you are in the same network (that's the only downside to that but is the exact same principle).
Why don't Sony release a handheld console that can play PS1, PS2, and even PS3 games that are sharpened and with improved performance? We have the technology, plus the libraries of these consoles are immense, which would open a market to both old school gamers and younger people like me to be able to experience 00s gaming in higher quality and while on the go? I spent $180 on a PS2 (and about $50 per game) just so that I could experience the PS2 era of Dynasty Warriors (currently on DW5 now, I am very impressed). With a modern handheld console, it can expedite the process.
Anyone hoping this companies will ever help you play the old games is diluted because not only they don't want to but they can't due to licensing issues. That is why the only great solution is if a modern Playstation console took old discs. Anyway you need to pay all that though. You could just emulate. PS2 emulation is quite good. And i don't want to hear about pirating bull. Anyone still eating the "you wouldn't steal a car" hot air is brainless.
1:18 when I saw it the first time I said the same thing it looks like a like a Wii U gamepad. Probably the one who designed it had a Wii U and saw it and say you know what we can make something like this, and for some reason which is kind of blowing my mind why are people obsessed with the portal. Literally the device itself becomes a $200 paperweight if there's no Wi-Fi. The fact that a lot of these fanboys are bringing the portal with them on the go even though it wasn't designed to be that way because it's so big and ugly. I would have rather had Sony released a steam deck clone and with a digital storefront where you can buy psp, ps1, ps2, ps3, and vita games, but sony went to lazy route and made a streaming device instead. They could've called it the vita 2 or some crap like that. 2:38 you can play Hollow Knight on the Nintendo switch, and the steam deck, and I don't need to worry about having a streaming because it's going to be on the system.
Every day I am happier and happier for not buying modern consoles or new games. Got a laptop that emulates and that's it, a lifetime of games. The price tally is definitely comedic, becoming a corporate shill IS a decent career.
Well Linus does design their stuff in house before having a supplier making it for them while Pokimane is just doing what Logan Paul and many UA-camr does used existing products and just change the recipe a tiny bit.
$250, while high, isn’t unreasonable for the (alleged!) materials and quality of construction. I kid almost that for mine and it’s lasted 9 years of everyday use so far
OP is out of his mind. So Backbone is what 99$ and you STUCK with TINY phone screen and black bars because most phones are not 16:9. My pro max is huge but the screen still be smaller than Portal. Portal is JUST 100$ OVER Backbone and for the 100$ you get SCREEN and Sony original gamepads: WinWin People that NEED such device will be happy, I DON'T NEED, but if I NEEDED, i would buy one. Its all about YOUR NEEDS! There is a group of people that like playing in their bad, going 1-2 hours before their sleep time and play, i come from PC handheld community and thats what i hear alot, i play in my chair near my main PC [yeah also sounds idiotic why not just use the 4090? because older games and emulators of old consoles look the best on small screen]
I dislike the shilling, but this video is super straw man and shows a lack of understanding of manufacturing. Yes there are no licensing fees for Sony to use their own software, but they have to pay their employees for the hours spent designing, coding, and testing it... Though the controllers on the portal are similar, they probably still required some new custom tooling and manufacturing. Though the plastic doesn't cost much, the custom machines to create an assemble the parts cost a lot. Ask for bulk ordering components, this doesn't always give as much of a discount as you expect. Sony's vendors still need to make a profit and if they already have tight margins they can only do so much to reduce the price for bulk orders. Yes if you break down the individual cost of the plastic, chips, and screen, the device it's not worth $200. But if you consider the upfront cost to develop software and create new manufacturing processes for the device, In addition to the relatively low volume they'll probably sell to recover that cost as well as trying to make a profit, that's where the additional cost comes from. The portal is a dumb niche product, but If it fills the niche you're in, $200 is not an insane price. As for the LTT bag, I don't know about the business decision to sell a $600 backpack, but it's made out of Apple leather. I don't know if you ever looked up Apple leather products, but even a small wallet can cost over $100. I'm not saying it's a good idea to sell or buy one, but it is priced in line with other similar products.
And you can add the price for a upper class Backpack, wich usually sit between 200 and 300€/$, then you are pretty reasonable. Not that this is a backpack for everyone. Like with their screwdriver: They were upfront with it and said: This is a expensive screwdriver, we wanted to make it the best it could be for our purpose, now it just costs quite a bit more than competitors. But of you look at the comparison between theirs and what others do, they were spot on with their marketing.
A Shill will remain a Shill no mather the apology. Linus has become a gready shill and no video or apology can take that away. He simply is not trustworthy anymore . The part where he says the Portal is designed to be carryed in a backopack cracked me up :)). Designed to go into a backpack and take it to the other room =))...........
You know what could have been better. instead of selling garbage for 200$, price it 400$ and allow native gaming. no need for 4k upscalind dynamic resolution. 720p 60 does work and if you can cram the power 1080p 40 hz at the very least. keep that haptics but allow native gaming. for now this feels like 700$ down the drain.
they wont ever make another real handheld cause they know it would 100% fail. Why? because they wouldnt be able to help themselves and add stupid things to it that are anti consumer like a proprietary charger, proprietary memory, ect.
I do think you're over blowing it a bit. Now, to defend Linus. He is the only company that sells desk mats at reasonable prices. The stuff he sells is expensive because he is bad at business and spends money where he shouldn't thereby inflating manufacturing costs, not because he is gouging. And one of their secondary channels does S on it in their own video on it. The points Linus raises are legitimate, even if far too charitable to Sony. Pre-Xidenflation the portal would be like $90 which isn't that bad.
Would it not be prudent to assume that different folks have different means, and different needs? And that hence, not everything needs to be for everyone, but can also be made to serve a rather niche market? Which incidentally is something he mentioned in said Portal review.
@@aweirdwombat Gee timelord, how did you manage a 1000hz monitor? That's centuries away at the rate we've been going. That 1ms rating is the time it takes to change from one frame to the next (actually just 1 pixel shifting by 1 value), a meaningless metric for the discussion at hand. 1ms is not the time between frames like you think it is. You clearly don't know what you're talking about. 150ms is bad, but it's good enough for most console games.
I canceled my subscription at LTT yt channel for this and other reasons. It's just horrible. The channels is biased as hell and they try hard to hide the fact they're reviewing sponsored material. It's disgusting. Add the annoying constant self marketing is just a bad joke. The other tech channels are no better. Nexus caveman makes no friends because he's just not a likeable person. I mean, I'm waiting for this tech channels to just implode one of this days.
Yeah, we get it. Corporations found out it would be more profitable if they virtue signaled, so they put in everything and now you accept it because it's part of your identity. You got brain washed and now you want to pretend right wing ideas magically disappeared after 2016 (which was actually the peak of these types of videos).
After Linus were all over Portal, i knew for sure he can't be trusted. He isn't more respectable than IGN. In fact IGN gave Asus Rog Ally and PS Portal same score... And there is that 600$ backpack that he probably got made in Taiwan for 30$.
I don't think that is reality. I saw the whole review instead of cut bits like here and he wasn't all over it, he said bad and good, he wasn't praising it as something excellent you must get. But unless a video is a full on hate video about the portal it seems it can't be accepted.
@@ManicMekka not only that, Raspberry Pi not only different device but also more powerful, more portable, more versatile and cheaper than PS portal, so that comparison not make any damn sense.
So if I dont have phone with controller then it is not a scam? If I dont want to play on tiny phone screen it is not a scam then? If I have phone with camera I don't need my gopro? Wee U didn't invented that. I was streaming PS4 to my Vita before it. After 15% I stopped watching your video it is enough incompetence.
the majority of families have multiple tvs in their home. one of the only thing this could be useful for is for a parent watching their kid while they watch whatever cartoon on the family tv. but then again I bought a 4k 42" TCL with a great picture for $200 bucks too that could also be used. put that thing on a rolling tv cart and you could also game any where in your house.
The cope and simping for this device is mind boggling to me. Sony really could take a literal dump on thier fanboys and they'd be like " yeah it was pretty warm for a bit so that's great, 8/10".
Listen, I’m not going to say the PlayStation portal is a must have especially for anybody that already has experience with remote play. However, if you have an extra $200 and you want the smoothest PlayStation five remote play experience, I don’t see why not. Even though it looks ugly, Should have came with an oled screen, I was surprised on how well it felt when I did get my hands on it. For those that don’t like it don’t buy it. For those that buy it. Enjoy it.
I am defending linus here, The ps portal is for a very niche market. For me it works seamlessly and I love it. It's a portal. It's not supposed to be a gateway. Also, Operating systems cost millions of dollars to develop. They have to take it back.
If there's licensing for audio/video codecs or other patents, Sony has to pay for those... also, they have to pay people to develop the OS, and the OS is made specifically for this one device, so I think it's fair to factor in a (small) percentage of the device cost for it
It's sad but you didn't even need to limit it to his review of the PS Portal. I noticed them falling back into bad habits almost immediately after public push back died down. For example, on one video he yelled "who cares" to the idea that PC gamers would need a new socket for their CPU every time they upgrade to the next generation. It's clear they've got a captive audience who are too invested in their parasocial relationship with him. For the record PS Portal sucks and I say this as a person who likes my PS5
He's right though. Unless you have more money than sense, you're sticking with your CPU until you change motherboards. For the past 4 or 5 generations the only CPU bound application that anyone would reasonably run into is CS:GO. Meaning no one cares if the socket changes because no one is upgrading their CPU because the average mid tier CPU is more than enough for almost everyone, and those who it isn't good enough for already have high end CPU's where a 2% performance increase for spending another $1200 isn't worth it.
Completely agree here Manic . I like Linus. He is a paid shill. That ps handheld is gonna be trash just like the game gear ⚙️ if you're old enough to know about that.
I get you’re Linus hater at least don’t take video out context. He said niche market and doesn’t trust Sony track history for ps portal, for sponsorship called them out live every time
Bro...I really don't know how he got the "hard r", and the word "retarded" confused. I don't know, that's just me. Also, if I'm paying $200 for a backpack, it better heat up my chicken strips, clean my kitchen, or give me a freakin' happy ending.
haha.. Sony Portal is total failure, is a joke.. steaming gaming device, not work for me, got xbox game pass, most of the time, bad connections and we have a decent high speed internet plan then the basic. Myself have almost all sony portable handheld since psp , psp go , psp vista ,, and i'm good with just the vista with ps4 performance and recently got the Legion Go, and the Ayn Odin 2 Pro. and my older version Steam Deck 512GB , i'm all good, just the fact to me , the Portal is just bad overall machine, ugly and useless machine, waste of money, i rather play my Retropocket 3 + then this shit ,,
hes actually not wrong. bluetooths got noticeable latency since ever. you'll never hear it on your phone when watching a youtube video because it actually buffers for but anything in real time + streaming is gonna be real bad.

The Vita mention reminded me that Sony made this with a Straight face and didn't give us a Vita Successor.

The Vita was the last Playstation system with soul
You should look into what happened to Vita and PSP to see what will happen to this one. The current Sony leadership is not the best. "It will be dead in a month."
The engineering behind the PSP was quite incredible. We don't really see that gusto from Sony anymore
The Playstation Portal is useless in 90 percent of public wifi spots, see? they really did include a brick, just not a charging one
what?
Until someone manages to mod it, and turn it into a decent, portable emulation machine. Nobody will care.
It doesn't even have a browser so modding it will be a pain
I do have MAME in my original PSP !!!
It's very underpowered. Basically all it can do well is stream video and inputs (barely). There's much cheaper emulation handhelds that can outclass it.
And why bother when there's a bunch of alternatives out there that can do it natively?
But at that point, your own damn phone will make a better portable emulation machine.

After Linus were all over Portal, i knew for sure he can't be trusted. He isn't more respectable than IGN. In fact IGN gave Asus Rog Ally and PS Portal same score...
And there is that 600$ backpack that he probably got made in Taiwan for 30$.
I don't think that is reality. I saw the whole review instead of cut bits like here and he wasn't all over it, he said bad and good, he wasn't praising it as something excellent you must get. But unless a video is a full on hate video about the portal it seems it can't be accepted.
"Garunteed revanue"
It's all about the money with Lienus.
Hard R tech tips
I wish there was a mod to take the wii u gamepad internals into the portal
What a REGARD…..
whats funny is the portal uses a mobile chip, so it can support Bluetooth, Sony has just disabled it in software
yeah linus has questioned this too
Holy shite 250 dollars for a freaking backpack? :( thats just f'ed up
Another day, another LinusShillTips video 😂
Linus's piracy stance alone speaks volumes.
The PS portal is truly one of the worst things sony has ever put out. Literally less functionality than the PSP, a nearly 20 year old handheld.
Wait2 what? Did that L dude comparing Portal with Rasberry Pi? Really? He say the most stupid thing for tech reviewer say.
Funny thing is the Rasberry Pi has more usb ports
@@ManicMekka not only that, Raspberry Pi not only different device but also more powerful, more portable, more versatile and cheaper than PS portal, so that comparison not make any damn sense.
i don;t like the d-bag anyway..
What was even the point of this video?
Immediately turned off the video once I heard the same opinion about the portal everyone on the Internet has been spouting
I love my portal
Man $200 great GPU deals out there instead of spending $250 on a backpack....... and at $600 entry level 1440p gaming pc be built in my pov btw
So if I dont have phone with controller then it is not a scam? If I dont want to play on tiny phone screen it is not a scam then? If I have phone with camera I don't need my gopro?
Wee U didn't invented that. I was streaming PS4 to my Vita before it. After 15% I stopped watching your video it is enough incompetence.
the majority of families have multiple tvs in their home. one of the only thing this could be useful for is for a parent watching their kid while they watch whatever cartoon on the family tv. but then again I bought a 4k 42" TCL with a great picture for $200 bucks too that could also be used. put that thing on a rolling tv cart and you could also game any where in your house.
The cope and simping for this device is mind boggling to me. Sony really could take a literal dump on thier fanboys and they'd be like " yeah it was pretty warm for a bit so that's great, 8/10".
try it before having an opinion from the internet
You sound like you like that warm feeling. Good for you.
Sounds like jelousy to me
Listen, I’m not going to say the PlayStation portal is a must have especially for anybody that already has experience with remote play.
However, if you have an extra $200 and you want the smoothest PlayStation five remote play experience, I don’t see why not.
Even though it looks ugly, Should have came with an oled screen, I was surprised on how well it felt when I did get my hands on it.
For those that don’t like it don’t buy it. For those that buy it. Enjoy it.
thank god i didn't waste 11 mins watching this video. you lost me at 1 min.
Why are you getting mad at him agreeing with you in portions of this video? Comes across very childish.
He's doing just fine, but nice try...
I am defending linus here,
The ps portal is for a very niche market. For me it works seamlessly and I love it. It's a portal. It's not supposed to be a gateway.
Also, Operating systems cost millions of dollars to develop. They have to take it back.
If there's licensing for audio/video codecs or other patents, Sony has to pay for those... also, they have to pay people to develop the OS, and the OS is made specifically for this one device, so I think it's fair to factor in a (small) percentage of the device cost for it
It's sad but you didn't even need to limit it to his review of the PS Portal. I noticed them falling back into bad habits almost immediately after public push back died down. For example, on one video he yelled "who cares" to the idea that PC gamers would need a new socket for their CPU every time they upgrade to the next generation.
It's clear they've got a captive audience who are too invested in their parasocial relationship with him.
For the record PS Portal sucks and I say this as a person who likes my PS5
That's very interesting. Do you know which video exactly he yelled "who cares"? because I may have to make a follow up video with a wider scope
He's right though. Unless you have more money than sense, you're sticking with your CPU until you change motherboards. For the past 4 or 5 generations the only CPU bound application that anyone would reasonably run into is CS:GO. Meaning no one cares if the socket changes because no one is upgrading their CPU because the average mid tier CPU is more than enough for almost everyone, and those who it isn't good enough for already have high end CPU's where a 2% performance increase for spending another $1200 isn't worth it.
Completely agree here Manic . I like Linus. He is a paid shill. That ps handheld is gonna be trash just like the game gear ⚙️ if you're old enough to know about that.
I get you’re Linus hater at least don’t take video out context. He said niche market and doesn’t trust Sony track history for ps portal, for sponsorship called them out live every time
The Linus video was anti ps portal.
Bro...I really don't know how he got the "hard r", and the word "retarded" confused. I don't know, that's just me. Also, if I'm paying $200 for a backpack, it better heat up my chicken strips, clean my kitchen, or give me a freakin' happy ending.
haha.. Sony Portal is total failure, is a joke.. steaming gaming device, not work for me, got xbox game pass, most of the time, bad connections and we have a decent high speed internet plan then the basic. Myself have almost all sony portable handheld since psp , psp go , psp vista ,, and i'm good with just the vista with ps4 performance and recently got the Legion Go, and the Ayn Odin 2 Pro. and my older version Steam Deck 512GB , i'm all good, just the fact to me , the Portal is just bad overall machine, ugly and useless machine, waste of money, i rather play my Retropocket 3 + then this shit ,,
You cherry-picked one really bad take against many other good and great takes he has and spent the latter half agreeing with him
I unsubbed after the second wave of drama. Shame, he used to be OK.
I thought the hard r clip was Ai BUT ITS REAL HAHAHA
Did linus really say bluetooth struggles to stream audio 🤣🤣🤣
Have you played any game with a Bluetooth headphone? Yes It struggles, a lot…
hes actually not wrong. bluetooths got noticeable latency since ever. you'll never hear it on your phone when watching a youtube video because it actually buffers for but anything in real time + streaming is gonna be real bad.
bruh... if you don't what the crap you're talking about, keep your mouth shut.
This video was annoying
Your tiny brain can't comprehend different opinions huh?
BACKPACK ahhahah nice video!
It's a glorified PS5 controller with less options and a screen.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Shill Tips ehh
Naw you just seem salty af, imma keep watching him.
Even if you are mostly right, which I'm not sure if you are... you lied far too many times so I'm disliking.
This is informative and unfortunate
Lying @ss 😂😂😂
How dare you compare the portal to the wii u
The wii u actual had good games and isnt a brick if your wifi gives out
Pls Xbox never make a portal…
Id rather buy the steam deck
I swear the only people who like the ps portal are parents who have kids that hogs the tv to the point where tjey cant play their ps5 on the tv.
