So it was shit until now ? lol.

nah, its still shit, but without stutter.

Tried Ys X, and yeah, it's mostly gone and now feels almost like a native game. I saw an occasional stutter few times on camera panning, but it's a night and day difference with constant stutter and slowdowns previously.

I just returned mine yesterday after trying one for the weekend. It worked okay but streaming isn't up to my standards. Playing PGA tour you would have to time button presses way a head of time and that was silly.

same thing for me. got one, played it for about 20 minutes. boxed it back up and sent it back. i have the best home network money can buy (according to Best Buy who installed it for a pretty penny) and 1GB internet. couldn't get a single instance of smooth gameplay. not sure how everyone raves about this thing. guess it just wasn't meant to be!

This was written by Z3mog, one of the few sane dudes in that abysmal, fanboy ridden subreddit, dude, if you're reading this, you were doing God's work all these months

Anyway :
- Apparently, it was an Android thing more than a Sony one (?)

- Users in the cloud streaming beta which released this past August (and were under an NDA) mentioned that the stutter was already fixed but couldn't talk about it (?)

Fuck knows at this point

As someone who correctly called the price of the PS5 Pro at 700 USD and think it is a fair price, 350 euro would be wild for this.

OLED + 120HZ shouldn't be more than 50 dollars.

There is a ceiling on how much a cloud streaming device should cost at 250 is definitely at the upper end of that ceiling, if not surpassing it already.

I definitely think 150 LCD @ 60Hz and 200 OLED @ 120hz is the right move here.

I think $299 is the upper ceiling for a PS Portal Pro with an OLED screen.

Fake Edit: I played the Portal just now and WOW I can play Astro Bot so much better now. I never knew what you guys were talking about with the stutter until now. Now that the stutter is gone, I notice the gameplay is smoother. Weird how that works.

I mean I personally don't see the value, but I also famously said that laptops would never be a thing because desktops were more advanced and cheaper.

I repeated the mistake with tablets.

Sony might be on to something with releasing a streaming only device if the backend tech is performative.

I can't believe you missed the laptop and tablet eras coming and taking over LOL!

Internet speed actually has nothing to do with Remote Play unless you're away from home.

That was a very interesting read that explains a lot, good find!

So a Google kernel issue, not a Sony portal issue. Weird that Sony couldn't just say 'hey, we see it, it's up to google, we are trying' but to just keep their mouths shut and have quite a lot of people pissed off at them is a weird strategy.
