Although Sony has launched a PlayStation Portal™ remote control game console for PlayStation 5, allowing players to continue playing their favorite PS5 games anywhere, but it is only for remote play and requires an Internet connection, so it is different from some handheld games. Compared with the machine, its convenience is still inferior. Recently, a foreign YouTuber successfully converted the PlayStation 5 into a tablet. The size has been greatly reduced, and it can be easily carried out for travel. It looks really good.

Recently, DIY Perks, a well-known foreign YouTube channel, shared a video of him successfully putting a PlayStation 5 into a tablet. DIY Perks said that the PlayStation 5’s motherboard is not large. Although it is impossible to convert it into a handheld game console, a tablet computer is feasible, and it does not require any changes in circuit design. Just find a tablet computer that can fit the entire motherboard. size:
The most difficult part is that the heat dissipation design of PlayStation 5 has many heat dissipation components to help this powerful game console effectively dissipate heat. For example, the heat dissipation fins are very thick, so he had to find a new one. Method to reduce heat dissipation design without overheating:

Look at the cooling fins and heat pipes. They are really thick and have a very special shape:
In the end, he used this one-piece cooling fin, which is not only smaller in size, but also easy to drill holes on:
After installing the bracket, it can be combined with the PS5 motherboard:
The difference between before and after modification, the overall thickness difference is huge:
The next step is to connect the heat pipe to the processor, which is very difficult. You need to use some chemical principles to get it. I recommend watching the video for details. I don’t think it is recommended to try it yourself:
After installing the four small fans, they first conducted the first power-on test to see if the heat dissipation was sufficient. It’s a pity that it failed. After playing for a while, an overheating warning will pop up, which means that the cooling needs to be improved:
Finally, they strengthened more cooling fins and made minor adjustments, and finally successfully solved the heat dissipation problem. When the PS5 console is fully loaded, the temperature is about 42 degrees:
The last step is to assemble the casing and screen. To make it easier to play, they also added a support bracket on the back, which looks really cool:
However, please note that this tablet does not have a battery, so it needs to be connected to a power source when playing.
In order to significantly reduce the size, they have also modified the power supply part, replacing the transformer with one smaller than that of ordinary laptops, but with higher power:
The final boot test was successful:
This screen has an OLED 4K resolution, so it can showcase the PS5’s graphics capabilities:
Although this PS5 tablet is still very large compared to ordinary tablets, its portability has been greatly improved, and it can be easily taken to other people’s homes to play together without having to worry about screen problems:

DIY Perks finally mentioned that since they can make it, it must be easier for Sony, and it may be thinner, but I don’t know if such a product will sell well.
