Don't Buy A PlayStation Portal Until You See This

Before you buy a PlayStation Portal, you need to know the truth about what this console really is. The PS Portal is actually a PS5 remote play device that connects to your PlayStation 5 only when it has power or in Rest Mode. You cannot play games on the Portal without a PS5. The PlayStation Portal is also NOT as "portable" as you think, as no carrying case comes with this handheld console. The likelihood of "controller drift" or "stick drift" on the PS Portal is also completely unknown. If you own many PS5 or PS4 game discs with few digital games, using the Portal might be a hassle for you. Finally, you cannot use the Pulse 3D headset with the PlayStation Portal, & must purchase the Pulse Elite Headset or Pulse Explore wireless earbuds to hear game sound on the Portal. Otherwise, you need to use the Portal's built-in speakers or connect a headset or earbuds using the headphone jack.
There are some things I really like about the PlayStation Portal. For example, you can game on the Portal while someone else is using the TV that your PS5 is connected to. The size and feel of the PS Portal is great in the hands & comfortable. The screen is beautiful, & responsiveness when using Wi-Fi is great. You can use the PlayStation Portal comfortably anywhere in your home!

It's really confusing because Sony said the Portal is just an accessory. But they also count it as a console sold? In my opinion if it cannot run any games locally it's not a console. All it does is act as a secondary screen when you cannot play on your TV and you have to stream it over your Internet connection.

How’s it expensive? The ps controller itself cost close to 90 bucks. On top of that you’re getting a high end LCD display which is roughly around 100 something and built in speakers. For 200 bucks that’s not a bad price at all.

Or if you’re like me and have access to a balcony or patio in your home it’d be perfect for getting some sunlight while gaming. My only concerns would be frames dropping tbh but besides that I think I want to invest. How has it been treating you so far after a few days ?

I was very iffy on the PSP initially but just had a bad connection that went away after an hour or so. I was able to take it upstairs and play persona 3 and Fortnite with relatively little issue, a tiny bout of stutter at some points but didn’t make the game unplayable. I picked up a pair of 3.5mm apple earbuds (didn’t know they still made these) to use with the console and some thumb grips to make the sticks feel better. Overall I’m pretty happy with the purchase but it does just make me wish they would’ve gone with a true handheld console instead.

Another very important note, your PS5 practically needs to be connected to internet with an ethernet cable for this to function well. You can use this if your PS5 is on wifi, but it's going to have way more latency.

I just love how every single review ive seen of the Portal, not a single review mentions the shitty micro-stutter that happens literally every ten seconds when you're playing a game due to the mismatched refresh rate. You can have the best internet connection available, it's still going to have dropped frames. Until Sony releases a patch to fix this issue, the Portal isn't worth it.

Don't know about anyone else I don't have an unlimited data plan with att even they say it's unlimited and using that with my phones wifi would probably get me banned from att.
