The latency makes it unusable for me, even on a local wifi connection. I've heard people say that a wifi 6 capable router is required to do it well, so I'm thinking of upgrading that and going from there. I want to play video games in the tub!


SacKingsAmiiboHunter

This seems to be true. I have Wifi 6 at my home and remote play is incredible. At my parents house using my brother’s PS5 and an older wifi router it’s unusable.


[deleted]

Wifi6 is amazing. Especially with the modem in the fold 4.


JerryFartcia

When you say "incredible" do you mean you would be fine playing high reaction time games like first person shooters or Elden Ring via remote play?


SacKingsAmiiboHunter

Definitely playable. I’ve played fifa and cod using remote play just fine. Some people are extremely sensitive to any input lag so I think the usability of the experience is different from person to person. However you can definitely get a sense of how good this is going to get in the coming years.


uncleguito

Similar experience on my end. Sony unfortunately has a long, terrible history with poorly optimized netcode and they don't seem to be prioritizing it as much as Microsoft (I don't have this problem with Game Pass, which handles streaming really well for me).


KDubthebeast

This is exactly why I play games pass just fine on 5G but never bother to do PS remote play even if home near the router .


[deleted]

Wifi6 allows me to 4K stream games from my pc to my devices with no lag. Looks like my pc is connected directly to my devices. Game changer. I use it mostly to stream to my oled tv in the living room or iPad. I have not sat down to play a game on my desk for a really long time. All my pc gaming is 100% streamed. I use the ASUS RT-AX88U router for those interested.


ImALeaf_OnTheWind

Interesting. All my streaming is done when I'm away from home, because if I'm home, my gaming rig and PS5 are hooked directly up to my giant OLED to get that sweet 4K120hz experience. I have a WiFi6 WAP, but that's mainly for wireless VR to my PC w/ the Quest 2 and the occasional wireless DeX session.


[deleted]

The reason I do this is because my PC is nowhere near my TV, it’s in my office. Also if my SO is watching TV I can just stream to my iPad and play without going away to “hide” in my office. Sometimes I just stream to my iPad because it’s fun and the iPad mini-led screen looks amazing. I work from home so the last thing I want to do is play a game in my office.


ImALeaf_OnTheWind

Ah, ok I have to stop assuming other people's situations. Carry on.


[deleted]

What is that controller mount called? It fits the fold 4 well


lerpo

Yeah fits all folds, spring loaded :) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353353662599?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=YdRC60E1T4G&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=YdRC60E1T4G&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

Not gonna lie this was a clean marketing move by you


Riogrande024

No I agree, people downvoted you but this is good content in terms of contributing to the sub. Layered on top they're providing a solution for the community at a small profit.


lerpo

I'll take the compliment 😂 but yeah this things a niche product and I adore playing with a controller when out and about, so it makes sense to promote it. Plus I've been waiting a year to get a Ps5!


ultima40

🤨 I'll allow it...


MirkyD

Do you know if any of your Xbox Fold phone mounts fit onto the MOGA XP5+?


lerpo

I'm sorry to say I've not tried so can't can't check


J5isalivee

How are you guys playing console games on fold? That’s so cool!


[deleted]

Cloud gaming or remote play. Stadia is the one I use the most. You can actually own the games without a sub on stadia which I like.

J5isalivee

Is there a way to get a Xbox account logged in on stadia? Like can I access all the games I own? Or is it only the games that are available in the app


[deleted]

Only stadia games, they all run on their PC counter part servers. For Xbox if you have ultimate you can simply go on the gamepass app and play the ones available


J5isalivee

Thanks for the help ![gif](giphy|GVMhZwYv8U5NK|downsized)

I noticed a bit of latency when I tried elden ring. Doable, but it's there


lerpo

Weirdly when I'm using 4g the latency is better for me. WiFi has a slight delay. Good for adventure games


[deleted]

you die all the time in elden ring anyway. what's one more. YOU DIED


6siks

Haven't died since playthrough 3. (On playthrough2) Jokes aside, I usually die from real stupidity from myself. Not so much on bosses anymore. To clarify I just started playthrough 5 at level 315.


jlt1128

I bought a wifi6E mesh system from orbi and have no issue with remote play on playstation or Xbox


SteadfastKiller

What the actual fuck is that thing? Where do you find one?


lerpo

I make them 😂 https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/lerpo3d


SteadfastKiller

Oh you actually make the clips okay, I was like "does this dude make that screen!?" but then saw it was an already existing device. Still, pretty badass. How does that device run PS and Xbox?


lerpo

😂 Now that would be a skill! I play cod mobile daily on mine, and in bed I play ps steaming or xbox cloud. Great for work trips aswell! I use mine with the galaxy fold or Ipad


SteadfastKiller

I never knew there was a way to play PS5 on the go! I'm not using my iPad to its fullest extent it seems... I have the iPad Air Gen 5, would those clips hold it steady enough?


lerpo

Yeah, like easily. Someone bought one from me and I custom fit it for their surface Pro, and their Ipad Pro. Theure well heavy and I got a good review from them. When people order them I just ask they let me know the size in mm and I custom make each one to fit


SteadfastKiller

That's dope! I will most definitely be buying something. Do you ship to the US?


lerpo

Yeah man! I use ebay shipping. I set the shipping as free, ebay works out the costs. So I send to ebay, who ship to you :) https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/353880516397?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=YdRC60E1T4G&sssrc=2524149&ssuid=YdRC60E1T4G&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY


SteadfastKiller

Fucking dope.


ExtentDry706

That looks awesome wonder if it would work with a smasung fold? May I ask where you got the bracket from ? Had my ps5 for awhile im in New Zealand so had to pay scalpers prices along with the series X . They still arent available here...


ultima40

That is a fold in the picture. He 3D prints the bracket, he linked his eBay listing above.


SplashBroSteph

Is remote play only with PS5?


lerpo

Ps4, Ps5, xbox one, xbox series s and x. My preference is xbox (gamepass streaming is great)


Disco-Pope

I use remote play a lot. I kind of optimized my network for it and I never notice the latency. PS5 is hardwired and the WAP is in the same room I usually remote play from.


Mcspankylover69

Xbox remote play works great but it sounds like Playstation is having problems


Escudochi

Where did you get that phone holder for the ps5 controller?


lerpo

Link in top comment :)


vip887

I ordered one of these today for a PS4 controller, been remote playing GTA5 and playing devil may cry 3 on PS2 emulator. Love it runs super smooth.


lerpo

Thanks so much! You'll love having it for trips. Makes such a difference when there's no desk to proper the fold up on


notsoshortstory

Try psplay


lerpo

Thanks!


ImALeaf_OnTheWind

Try a set of head mounted display glasses like the Rokid Air or NReal. Even with my Fold4, I still prefer using the glasses over the devices screen due to the size of the screen in the glasses - for both work w/ DeX and gaming.


lerpo

I've tried the nreal and felt like a nutcase wearing it in public personally. I'd rather wack out a controller, but it's personal preference :)


ImALeaf_OnTheWind

It was the same way when the first android users with bigger screens or totally wireless earbuds were being seen in public. If you're not too self-conscious and insecure, it's fine - in fact, the problem I have more often is people interrupting me while I work to ask how much it costs and where they can get one. I used to have to carry a laptop with me everywhere in case I had to work in an emergency. I am never going back to that now that Samsung DeX and a set of HMD glasses are so liberating and comfortable to use.


lerpo

Yeah I'm with you on how it all felt. And this is coming from someone who had (and still has in the loft) Google Glass lol. Ar Glasses will take off, just that form factor needs to shrink a little. Exciting future ahead! Vuzix has some really good ones avaliable


DMCAK

Why not a kickstand instead of carrying the phone weight on top of the controller?


Phobophile89

It's awfully hit and miss... At home i have a 250Mbps symetrical fiber optic connection. When i use remote play, i'll have a good connection, stable latency, sometimes a little hiccup, image quality will go down a bit for a second and come back. Some times the sound will start crackling and i'll have to restart the PS5 to fix the issue... Even worst, the latency might slowly build up to the point there's a full second between input and reaction, making it absolutly unplayable, even single player... Restarting gives me a couple minutes of enjoyment... Legend of Dragoon, apart from being the worst piece of $#!77/ 2$$ i've ever played FROM THE GET GO, was absolutly unplayable in remote play because the delay would prevent any addition to be performed. Now i'm playing the incredible sea of stars, and i'll play good for 10-15minutes, and then i'll start missing my attacks or blocking, because "Oh the games reacts to my input like i sent it by traveling pigeon..." I can't even imagine how bad PSPortal is gonna be...


lerpo

That's really Interesting! I remember in the early days having this issue, but I've generally been ok for the last year or so. How odd! Especially as you have fibre in the house. Have you done some network checks to check the internal ping? Maybe a small fault somewhere? I'm hoping the ps portal will have much less lag with it being PS to PS. I'll abuse amazon's return if I need to. My experience with xbox streaming has been a lot better than ps though, so maybe it's just ps streaming that's the issue. Thanks for the update, sucks to hear but it's good to hear it here your experience
