Many PlayStation fans have been clamoring for a true successor to the Vitar, and while the Portal is an excellent gadget, it’s not quite the same. Features of DIY YouTube Channel It argues that Sony has everything it needs to make a portable PS5 tablet in the console itself, voiding at least one warranty to prove it.
With technology and skills (to our eyes) indistinguishable from dark magic, DIY Perks Frankenstein is building a redesigned, smaller PS5 motherboard with a custom heatsink design, 3D printed plastic, and a beautiful OLED display. The process obviously takes weeks and requires knowledge and skills acquired over a lifetime. So maybe don’t try this process at home unless you consider yourself an S-rank welder.
It has incredible performance and the form factor is very attractive. DIY Perks points out that the reason we haven’t seen anything like this before is because it has question marks. Are you going to sell? What is the right price and is there an audience for it? These are questions we hope Sony finds answers to in the future, and in the meantime, we can always dream.
