sorted byCan he use this to play games on my PS5 whilst he is away?
What if I am playing on the console at the same time?
From the faq. Just needs to be on a WiFi. Network (edited)
Either;
Steam Deck with Chiaki (Where you have a useful device for playing games locally / not just locked to PS)
Mobile device with something like a Razer Kishi/Nacon MG-X Pro/Backbone. (edited)
I am someone who understands all of this - Have PS5 connected by Gigabit connection/cables, have WiFi6 router and still I am less than impressed with the performance of PS5 Remote Play when tried with iPad/Steam Deck/Backbone even locally. It can be OK. But any game that requires precise input - Shooting/Fighting/Rhythm games or anything with precise timed input is impossible to play properly..
Your standard household, with less than good WiFi, is going to really struggle with performance of this device in my opinion. Unless they've implemented some sort of magic with it that you don't get with the other Remote Play options. (edited)
There will be minimum requirements for internet speeds but that’s the same as if you’re in the same building as your PS5.
I've not always got access to the console and remote play on phones suck.
All your alternatives you list are always compromised in some way, like using my phone, that I actually frequently use for communicating... not smart! Or using the big bulky deck with 800p screen.. no!
Portal is perfect for me, big screen, no compromise on controls and can still use my phone. It won't be useful for every one but the amount of people pooing on it just coz they don't have a use for it is weird. I don't have a use for a plant pot posted a few posts above this, I've not gone in there to post that it's useless for me.
Just don't understand why people come to comment on a device they have no interest in. I have one preordered from Sony already because it cuts out the inconvenience of either locking up my phone with an add on, or connecting my one PS5 controller to a tablet.
Yes, it's over-priced ... but in 2023, £199 really isn't that bad. People don't think twice about spending £800+ on a new mobile phone that does pretty much the sane things as their old ones every 1-2 years, so it's not really that big an ask.
Anyway, I'm off to comment on a load of microwaves and dishwashers I don't fancy the look of
Now we know why.
And the gaming experience will depend greatly on the strength of your internet package and connection... So it's only portable in the sense that you move it somewhere with excellent wifi speeds and stablility - So can't really be used on public transport, many hotels etc etc.
For the love of all that's pure, don't encourage Sony by buying this... (edited)
The freedom to play PS5 games on a screen with full Dualsense features is just what we want. I’ll play a lot more games instead of waiting for the TV to become available.
Preordered.
Decent discount so voted hot.
I admit it's a very niche product, but as a dad with two young kids, I game exclusively handheld (Switch and Steam Deck), just because it's much more convenient. I can play for 15-30 mins anywhere in the house and put it in sleep mode put it down and come back to it later, and when I have got a bit more time, I can chill on the sofa or in bed while the wife watches TV.
I have a Series S that I haven't turned on in about six months. To have a lightweight and portable handheld with the graphical fidelity of a PS5 is a win for me. £188 is just about reasonable for me. (edited)
I can see why people don't want it. I can also see why people do. Personally, the dedicated device aspect, with dualsense controls and 60fps gameplay with (reportedly) better connection to your ps5? It's expensive, but thats ticking a lot of boxes for me.
Haters will always hate.
releasing a dedicated handheld halfway into the ps5 doesnt make sure, from the publisher to developer investment point of view. it would appear to be more financial suicide.
I feel sony are testing the waters with this device, understanding the demand and need for it (via pre orders) will give them a better understanding to the demand for a dedicated handheld, which they can look into releasing around the start of PS6 lifespan.
Hopefully Sony change course a bit with Jim Ryan leaving.
That's a Sony for you - whatever price they come up with - they think it's a good price for every consumer
