Are you going anywhere this summer? Do you think you'll take the Portal with you? 🤔 Let me know! 👇 This is also my first video filmed outside of my main setup without being a review or guide format. Let me know your thoughts and if you want more videos like this! 😊💙

have had my portal since launch genuinely love it 🙏🏻, it does have some issues in certain instances depending on setting but I love it mostly cause of my love for PS and PS games so to be able to theoretically play them anywhere was always going to be W for me in terms of a portable quote unquote "portable" 😅 Cant wait to see how it performs on an actual vacation not just on a downtown commute.

Glad you like it! 😊 Check out the 2nd half of this video as I test it in Gran Canaria whilst my PS5 is back home in the UK, which is over 2000 miles away, so that should give you an idea of how it'll perform if you take it with you on vacation 😊

Nice video. When are you going to New York for that video 😂

Thank you! :) And haha, will have to wait and see if this video does any well first haha but if I do do it, I think I'll do it as a series of shorts and would likely be in November or December this year or next. Wanna come with? 😅😂

@@Octorious exactly what I was thinking hahaha

I did a trip from LA to NC just now. Had to decide what portable to bring (have Portal, Steamdeck, Switch). Went with the Switch because of it's smaller size than the others. Also, found a cool thing that it actually fits nicely on the mini-tray on the back of the airline seat (Boeing and Airbus 737). This helped remove neck strain as I just separated the controllers from the Switch. It would be cool to know if the Portal would fit, but then would need separate controller too.

@Octorious

Ай бұрын

The Switch is definitely excellent for being portable, especially with the kickstand in that scenario. With the portal, I think you'd probably sort of just be resting your hands on the tray, but there'd be no resting it on it and using a separate controller. Thanks for watching! 😊

@@Octorious The planes now have an additional cell phone style tray above the normal table so that no kick stand is needed, so I'm wondering if the Portal would fit there too. Thank you for the video!

You made this a month ago? They fixed the net sign in thing, at least in the US.. weird you didnt know.. 😅

do you have to connect enthernet cable to PS5 ?

I plan to buy it this summer But i have my favorite games physical so i might have to rebuy them digitally

I hope you like it if you do and hopefully this video sets some expectations for what you can expect when using it on trips. 😊 That is a pain with the physical games! Worst case is buy them again yeah, or just try and think before what you'll play the most and ensure that's the disc you've left in. 😊 Thanks for watching! 💙

Is it required for the Ps5 and portal to be on the same wifi network ? Or it work with different network as well?

@sourabhghosh100 no not at all as shown through this video. Can use mobile data, public WiFi or whatever you need to get a connection to the Internet on the portal. 😊👍

Still on the fence with the portal , apparently Sony are working on an actual portable gaming system for the holiday launch . Let’s hope it is what the PSVita failed to be and as successful as the PSP was .

It is a great little device but yes the fact there is no sort of offline option for it is a bit of a bummer. A native device like the vita would be excellent! Thanks for watching 😊

time to continue the trend... sigma. on a mkre serious note would you recommend the portal for a long plane flight? I'm doing an 11 hour flight in the summer and although it does work in the air how well does it actually preform is the question?

@Octorious

Ай бұрын

Hhahaa thank you for the actual comment in addition to the trend 😂 As I mentioned in the video, I wasn't able to actually test this for myself in the air so really can't say for certain, but if the wifi speed is consistent then I would have thought you'd be okay. If possible, I'd advise packing it into your carry-on (as I'm sure you'd benefit with having it wherever you are flying to anyway), and then do a speed test using the speedtest.net site and also look at the ping. If speeds and ping seems to be consistent with ping below 200 and speeds above 15mbps up and down, then you should be able to play singleplayer games just fine so get the portal out and give it a shot. If not though, just leave it in the carry-on. Hope you enjoy your flight :D
