Extra Testing:
If I missed any let me know!
Edit: Added the IGN review which was actually pretty good! Tested it at a cafe outside with their PS5 back at home on WiFi and the experience was good according to the reviewer.
Edit 2: Added Kinda Funny but I haven’t watched it yet. I’ll update my comment below if there is any new info worth adding to my TLDR.
Edit 3: added an extra testing section where SpawnPoiint tested the USBC port for Ethernet and USBc wireless dongles
Considering how well HDR works on my phone I was shocked it wasn’t supported on the portal. Especially because the move from h264 to HEVC makes the connection so much more stable and higher quality
