Playstation 5 Portal Remote: Introducing the PlayStation Portal, boasting an 8-inch LCD screen that delivers a smooth 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second. Seamlessly connecting to the PS5 via Wi-Fi, this device serves as a remote extension. It excels in playing supported games already installed on the console.
