Sony is poised to unveil the PlayStation Portal, a handheld gaming device tailored for streaming PS5 games through Wi-Fi connectivity. With a price tag of $199.99, the device boasts an expansive eight-inch LCD screen, delivering a crisp 1080p resolution and a buttery-smooth 60 frames per second experience. It seamlessly links up with the PS5 console via Wi-Fi, effectively mirroring the console's gaming content.
Notably, the Portal's controllers closely resemble the acclaimed PS5 DualSense controllers, complete with adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. However, it's important to note that it won't support cloud streaming for PS5 games, which typically requires a PS Plus Premium membership. For optimal gameplay, an internet connection with a minimum of 5Mbps is necessary, with 15Mbps recommended.
Interestingly, the device opts for a new proprietary wireless technology known as PlayStation Link rather than traditional Bluetooth connectivity. It's also equipped with a 3.5mm headphone jack and aims to offer a battery life that aligns with the highly regarded DualSense controllers. While the exact release date remains undisclosed, the PlayStation Portal promises to redefine portable gaming experiences for PlayStation enthusiasts.
