It's been over 6 months since the PS portal came out and If there's one thing to take away from my time with it its this: After using the PlayStation portal for a long period of time. I can say I was VERY wrong with my initial opinions.

Thanks to you, I can see that it's not even required! I can just follow your simple "copy this folder to this folder" method and boom. Already I got rid of the opening videos when you start the game.

    The Portal is a CONTROLLER!!!! Name a controller with BLUE TOOTH capability.... The Portal is not meant for gaming on the go and is for exactly the situations you mentioned in this video. I wouldn't recommend using the Steamdeck outside of the home because of it's battery life and the fact that it too is fragile. AR glasses and a controller of one's choice is the way to play on the go. Cool vid though! Keep up the good work. 👍

Also I just thought about this. Are you under the impression that the portal streams from the ps5 while it’s in rest mode. But the ps5 actually turns fully on to let you stream content. Then goes back into rest mode when you disconnect the portal. (As long as you have the proper settings)

  • @aceospades7
    @aceospades7 5 дней назад

    I've been using my portal for a few months now and still love it. I only play it at home though. Another pro for using it over the backbone or any phone is that anytime you navigate away from the remote play app on the backbone, to check a text for instance, you're disconnected and have to reconnect again. One thing I wish Sony would add is some type of night mode or warm screen filter. The blue light can be a bit much when playing at night even in the dimmest setting

Emulate up to Gamecube and stream PS 4 and 5 games as well as xcloud and steam link since it just runs android with a skin in top. Or just save some extra money and get a base steam deck which can emulate up to Xbox 360 and switch, local gaming, ps4 & 5 streaming, Xcloud and steam link.

    Well, I have used my phone's hotspot and it works very well. I have no issues there. But did you know that they released a new update yesterday that allows you to use the PlayStation portal anywhere including in hotels that have that authentication feature on their Wi-Fi. You cannot use it via the QR code that pops up in your PS portal. So you scan it and everything is done through your phone. So now when you stay at hotel rooms or play in a public place, you can use your Wi-Fi. That's a big plus for me because I travel to Vegas here and there to have fun and when I go back to my hotel room, I would be able to connect to the Wi-Fi with ease.
