Playing on it so someone else can watch TV is great but has no value outside your home if it relies on your PS5. For gaming like this I will stick with the Switch.
Feels like PlayStations version of the Wii U not the switch
Except without the GamePad's uses for giving one player exclusive information in local multiplayer or the touch screen actually being used in games.
There's a a hands on post that says it will work outside the house. It just needs to be on a wifi network still.
Not to mention all the same utility can be had with say a small TV or computer monitor and like a HDMI switcher for a little over $100. Maybe less if you find a good deal. I had a Wii U. The gimmick of the controller screen got old fast and it sucked pretty hard overall. Not looking to retry that failed concept.
Even comparing it to the WiiU, at least some games took advantage of using both screens.
This is just the tablet as a single screen, with none of the utility.
Yup. That and, if a little more distance or wireless is needed, you can remote play to android/ios devices via PSPlay w/ dual sense and 3rd party controller support.
This is basically the non-techie or expensive taste version of the remote play experience as the WiiU screen added more functionality than mirroring.
I use my Switch exclusively for this. If this handheld can eliminate lag, I'd love to get it. But it's priced a bit too high.
I already use Chiaki on my Deck to play my PS4/PS5.
Sometimes my wife is using the TV for something else. Sometimes I want to be out on the porch, or in bed. Sometimes I just don't want to put my glasses on.
This thing has a better screen and, for PS5 in particular, better controller features than the Deck.
It's a bit pricey, but not as bad as I was expecting. If it goes on sale I'll be tempted to grab it.
Weird that PlayStation named their device the Portal and valve didn't though lol.
