The market is definitely ready for one, with all these companies coming out with handhelds from steam, asus, Lenovo and Logitech to name a few Sony could definitely capitalise on the handheld trend and dominate the market. If done correctly and by correctly I mean make a ps vita 2 that allows physical games it would sell incredibly well. The technology is there the exclusive games are there if anything they would be losing money not making one.

@@ryans413 yes....that is exactly what I would expect. And its the most logical choice. Because people want a portable device that is totally integrated with their console if not a hybrid system ala the Switch. If you are holding out for a portable device with a new physical media platform then you are only setting yourself up for disapointment. The only way to integrate a handheld device with a console is through streaming. Especially if you want said device to run the same games. With cloud streaming the console does the heavy lifting freeing the portable device to run the games. Just look at how under powered the Switch is and how it can barely run many games because of its limitations. Thats not what Playstation owners want. They clearly want a way to play the console games on the go, and the Portal proves that.

I love this thing ever since i bought it. Ppl was trashing it until they actually hold and play it 😎

In regards to feel: it’s weighted perfectly, and as a bigger person with bigger hands than normal, it actually feels better than the regular controller, having my hands separated more is just so much more comfortable and I never thought it would be

Your setup is awesome, I think I will get a PlayStation Portal soon when it's in stock near me ^^

You should be able to connect to it via hotspot if the connection is good enough, it’s not as reliable as home WiFi but it should still work yes

Do you think a 350ish MB speed would be on par with your latency? Seems to be doing quite well for you

do i have to be near my ps5 if i want to connect my pulse headset to the portal?

Really good review! Can you livestream from it?

Sometimes my portal sucks and sometimes it’s smooth. When it’s good i actually refer it on the portal, when it sucks, I wish I returned it haha just depends on the day.

So can you play on this at work on your break as long as you have your ps5 on at home and have a hotspot from your phone?

Would you recommend buying a 2 year warranty? I’m pretty okay with taking care of devices but wondering what others recommend?

I was debating between getting one of these and just getting a Backbone controller. The about using a Backbone w/ Remote Play is that it still doesn't work unless you're on the same network as you're console. I'll prob pick one up next week 😄

What happens when you get stick drift on it? How do you replace the sticks?

Are you telling me i can connect wireless earbuds (sony wf1000xm5)to this PSP?because I’ve been reading everywhere that you need an adapter
