I only play one "Vita" game on my Vita, and that's Persona 4 Golden. The rest of my use on my Vita is the remote play when I'm at work, in bed, or the kids wanna use the television. 100% worth it for me. I have no obvious input lag I ever run into. It's great.
EDIT: Here are two accessories I bought for my Vita, due to my large hands I felt these were necessary. If you've ever felt like your hands were too cramped using a Vita, look into these.
HORI "Remote Play Assist" Case I bought this before I realized you cannot change controller layout when using remote play. Many game devs put the extra buttons (like L2/R2 L3/R3) on the stupid touch screen, and you're stuck with it. The gray buttons this case adds only touches the back of the Vita. It did save my butt on games like Uncharted and Last of Us. Plus it makes the handheld thicker and has palm grips. So even if you don't use the triggers much, it's a great feel.
Analog Stick High Covers Again for my big hands, the low profile sticks wasn't cutting it for me. I did find after a month I had to take off the Right Stick cover cause it was too tall and hitting X would often push the stick down. The Left Stick cover is PERFECT for me.
I bought this one, works very nicely
as long as long the game doesn't force you to use touchscreen controls (like FFXV).Edit: just found out if you mod the Vita you can set the grip compatible control scheme for all games.

It's pricey, but found the back touchscreen completely unusable without it. The grip makes using those buttons much easier.

This will be your new best friend. I promise.
They came out with a casing that added R2/L2 and R3/L3 buttons instead of using the rear touch pad.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01ERA94BY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_2ZJNAbQAB4993
Got one of these, and I love it. Pretty much a must have for me for any game with heavy L/R 2/3 usage. I’m garbage with rear touchpad accuracy.

Use this case every single time I play remote play and I absolutely love it BUT there is a better one: https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
This one has support for L3/R3 compatibility as well. Both are extremely comfortable, but I will say even with the 2000 model the one you posted can get pretty heavy over time. I think it's weighted a bit off, but that being said, I played a majority of my playthrough of Nier using the case you posted and it worked flawlessly. That game requires a lot of R2 mashing and it never skipped a beat.
my bad, here is the link https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
This thing is worth its weight in gold my friend!
As far as I can tell, sadly no. You could try one of those grip cases that add physical triggers. Here's one for Vita 1000, and another for Vita 2000.
What I did was a lot cheaper and janky. I just took a couple strips of scotch tape and stuck them on the rear touchpad, covering the area that R&C uses for strafing. The tape still lets your touch inputs work, but it adds a bit of tactile feedback that really helps compared to just flailing around with no purpose :P Make sure to use matte tape instead of glossy, so it actually feels different!
I recommend this one.

Yup. The one I'm referring to is the one that /u/Rufio6 mentioned. This Hori grip has buttons for L2/R2 triggers plus L3/R3 on the back.

I just bought this and it is really comfortable and it works perfectly for remote play with ffxiv so far
I can confirm Playstation Vita w/PS4 works pretty good too. I did get the trigger case a long time ago off Amiami and its really expensive now.

I've got the Nyko Power Grip. Feels pretty good on the hands, and has a battery of its own that keeps my Vita going through the days in and out of sleep mode.
There's also this one particular grip that I've been eyeing that's geared for Remote Play users, adding 2 sets of triggers for the rear touch pad. It's import only, and a little pricey because of it, but real useful for PS4 titles that use the default Remote Play configuration.
Is this the one you're talking about? https://www.amazon.com/HORI-Vita-Remote-Assist-Attachment/dp/B01ERA94BY
The cheap Nexilus / CTA grip works well enough for me. The trigger grips seemed expensive so I held off.
eBay has the Hori trigger grip as well as another one in the $30 range that I'd consider if looking for triggers.
Here's an amazon link as well

Free shipping to US and cheaper. Not to mention shipping is actually really fast.
I have two differebt grips. One that has l2/r2 on the front and back to help with what ever gane uses those touch screen sections.
Then another one that has an l2/r2 and l3/r3 all on the back.
I also brought some extenderds for the analog sticks cause i have big hands and they help with targeting in Destiny and other shooters.

Fyi: these grips work only for the ps vita slim versions.
Here's one. Play Asia has a few but this is an Amazon link. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01ERA94BY/ref=pd_aw_sim_sbs_63_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=ST74YTY7EWAXR9Z1DBZE&dpPl=1&dpID=61Gf7aUqW%2BL
Who made this one? I'm confused...
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01ERA94BY/ref=cm_cr_arp_mb_bdcrb_top?ie=UTF8
I use it from time to time. Definitely wouldn't recommend going into a 24 man dungeon or even an eight man ex trial. But ya I've used mine to do PotD, daily quests, even dungeons. 2 things I will say is that the buttons kind of suck for it, so I bought an attachment for mine which gives me the r2/l2 and r3/l3, definitely helpful, if you dont want to invest in that: just put your main buttons on that first HUD, don't try to have multiple bars because its kind of a nightmare to play. And the script is hard to read, like during a cutscene, because the screen is just so small but if you dont mind that, then this will do fine!
Here's a link for that attachment I was talking about:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ERA94BY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Don't you want the one that comes with the l2/l3 buttons? I just got them from amazon for $31. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01ERA94BY/ref=ya_aw_oh_bia_dp?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I have tried Remote play with:
In terms of usage, I use the PC the most followed by Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact + DS4. But they all work...
In terms of ease of use / portability, I'd say it's a toss up between Tablet/DS4/Mount & Vita then PC (Laptop) + DS4. Vita isn't bad, but the screen is too small for my taste for remote play, and the grip, even though helps to add extra buttons, isn't as natural as using the DS4.
You can not remap buttons on remote play which is annoying to say the least.
There are grip add-ons for the Vita like this one which do work great, but are useless if the developer decides to have L2/R2 mapped to the front screen instead of the back touch area.

this one is better. It's makes a controller grip and you now have buttons more like a ps2 controller
Your mileage may vary due to your connection speed but overall its a pretty decent experience on the vita. I've been running PS remote play on my vita, PC, and phone on a 100mbps/20mbps connection with only occasional hiccups at 720p streaming.
The biggest issue is the controls are a little tough as the l2 and r2 buttons are digital, so some weapons are harder than others to combo for sure. It's not comfortable for long sessions. Also the screen can be a touch hard to read in menus. I played MHFU on the PSP though and I'd still say that was harder to play control wise hah.
I'm looking at picking up one of these as they seem to have great reviews (there's a model for the 1000 as well).
I preordered this grip from PlayAsia but looks like you get just get straight from Amazon now. https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY It's pretty bulky but I love the fact they you can use trigger buttons for L2/R2 and L3/R3. Works reallly well for remote play! It does add weight to the system and impede portability, however. But the hand grips and trigger buttons might be a good choice if your hands are starting to ache from the grip. If you never use the rear touch pads, then any of the other grips already mentioned should work fine. Good luck!
Is it because the particular grip you are using scratches your Vita when you take it off or you are worried about damaging it?
If so, https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_63_t_0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=45V82Q8ND55FPVHM85GT is a good solution as it only holds the vita in with a latch. The buttons aren't the best but it gets the job done.

I have this grip for my Vita 1000 and it's a good step up but somehow it has made me hit the back panel way more, which in some games is a problem. It's not a bad grip, especially for the price, but if you have a 2000, then I STRONGLY recommend the Hori grip with L2/R2 L3/R3 triggers. It feels better material-wise, it is super comfortable, and the triggers are a great addition especially if you want to try some Remote play.
Here you are!

It is for the slim model. It's $33 on there and when I bought it there were only 14 left. I'm half tempted to buy a second one as a backup. That's how much I love it lol.
EDIT: I guess it costs a little more through Amazon but I'm not sure how much shipping costs with play-asia. Hopefully this helps!
The easiest way to get L2/R2 and L3/R3 is to get a trigger grip that will push the areas in those for you.
This is the best one, IMO, for that purpose (assuming you have the non-OLED version.) https://www.amazon.com/HORI-Vita-Remote-Assist-Attachment/dp/B01ERA94BY
I've been using this to play Soul Calibur VI on the vita.
For the 2000 this is what I use....

Awesome for remote play.
It's been a while since I played darkest dungeon but I remember the back touchscreen being very hard to use in that game. Was really fun.
Q2 though, i'm just wondering what people think is the best model out there so I can buy one. I can find some on amazon like this but this is a pretty niche product. I'm basically asking in case something is out there I might miss is much better than something like what I find.
It's not quite the same thing, but I found this:
https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY/ref=pd_sim_63_5?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B01ERA94BY&pd_rd_r=367DW37CCMMEBPZ56FC8&pd_rd_w=jKkOD&pd_rd_wg=CMVPc&psc=1&refRID=367DW37CCMMEBPZ56FC8
Basically it adds l2/r2/l3/r3 for your vita for games that uses the back touch pad in remote play
https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
I have one of these, helps me hold the Vita a lot better than w/o.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01ERA94BY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_egyeAbWKKKENH
That or other similar. Default L/R 2/3 buttons on vita are just parts of the touch panel on the back of the device. Totally unusable for me
> Also, how does remote play work exactly? If my PS4 is on and connected to WiFi and I'm away from home, say at a friend's house and connected to their WiFi with my Vita, can I still use remote play? Basically, I want to play Persona while my friends take forever with their turns during our Dungeons and Dragons campaign... ;)
More or less. The internet at your home (where your PS4 is) and where you are at (with your vita) needs to be fast enough.
Since Persona doesn't have much "fast reaction" it's a perfect game for it (I've logged a handful of hours on it from my vita, though usually just from other rooms in my house), as even if there are hiccups they won't result in instant death.
One thing to note is that the vita doesn't have L2, R2, L3, and R3, (which don't matter much for Persona as you don't need fast reaction for those buttons) and instead requires you to tap on the back touch screen to activate these buttons. You can get a plastic case thing which adds these buttons (via levers and such) and also adds some nice contouring for adult sized hands: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ERA94BY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o05_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I'd also recommend some stick extenders, personally: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00XXSONHM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I got mine from Amazon. It's an import item so they're all 3rd party sellers but as long as you pick one of the "fulfilled by Amazon" ones it should be fine (and not end up shipping from overseas).
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ERA94BY
Try using this, makes a world of difference.
The Hori grip is generally considered one of the best, you'll see if recommended around here pretty often. You can get them over at Amazon or Play-Asia.com.
Yea i'm ok with that. $100 for both shipped? I'll put pics tonight if you'd like but this is the grip~ https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
This is not the one I bought, but is one option: https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
This is closer to the one I purchased: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/E-house-Matte-Hand-Grip-Handle-Joypad-Stand-Case-with-L2-R2-Trigger-Button-For-PSV1000/32823680414.html
Lol, you describe Vita Remote play in the list of things you wish.
Something that really helps Vita Remote Play
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01ERA94BY
No matter how much I tried I could not get used to the back touch pad for remote play. It really helped adding physical buttons that can be pressed.
https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
Is this the one? I want to get a grip for Remote Play, but I want to make sure I get the right one.

This one ads all the buttons to it like a controller so you can actually play it and not use that stupid touch screen in the back
Don't forget Vita has remote play for PS4 & PS3. That's quite a few additional games. U may even be able to stream PS5 games in the future. Pretty sure if PS5 is touting backwards compatibly, that remote play would be in included for the Vita, but I could be wrong. Also, make sure to get this . I personally find it mandatory not only does it give you R2 & L2 buttons, it makes the Vita much more comfortable to hold. Cheers 🔥
Okay. The VITA is actually better for Remote Play than the app you run on Mac/PC in terms of connectivity. I've been places where the VITA connects to my PS4 no problem, but the program on my Macbook Pro deems the connection too weak.
The complaint most have about using the VITA for remote play is the controls. For reasons I cannot understand, the joysticks cannot be pushed as R3 and L3, so those buttons end up on the front bottom corners of the touch screen. Meanwhile, R2 and L2 are the touch pad on the bottom, which are very hard to control. So, if you do go this route, you may want to purchase THIS
25 down and 5 up is adequate on the VITA's end most of the time, but you should definitely have the PS4 receiving a better upload speed. I started getting noticeably more stable remote play connections only after upgrading my Comcast to 10mbps upload and hardwiring the console.
When my Macbook does connect to my PS4 Pro, the quality is 1080p, which looks amazing on the 15" screen. If you can get this to work, go with it. The image quality combined with being able to use a DS4...awesome!
https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
My wife ordered the blue one through Amazon. It's beautiful!
The remote play assist has triggers that tap the 4 corners on the back for games that use the default remote play control setup:
https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-Remote-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
I haven't got it yet, but the button in Oval, so I am guessing that's a 1000
EDIT: A quick search on google images reveal it's a 1000, I don't think that Hori Grip works with the 1000
https://www.amazon.com/HORI-Vita-Remote-Assist-Attachment/dp/B01ERA94BY
This is the one I went with:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01ERA94BY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
There is another one that was recently added to Amazon but doesn't include triggers for L3 and R3.
Edit: the one I linked is only for the slim, I believe. If you have the first gen with the AMOLED screen, you might have to go with the other one: https://www.amazon.com/Psvita2000-r2button-Load-Grip-Cover-Black/dp/B00TP8KBJI/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1498237858&sr=1-1&keywords=vita+l2+r2
You may want to consider buying a grip with L2/R2 and L3/R3 buttons if you plan on using Remote Play a lot. Some games have a very spotty control scheme. The wiki has a list of them. Personally, I recommend this one
I play persona 5 and ff14 with remote play with this

You need one of these guys to get yourself a good L2/R2 on Vita!
https://www.amazon.com/buttons-mounted-attachment-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000/dp/B01ERA94BY
I haven't tried that, and I mean sure you CAN play any game, but some are better than others becsuse of control scheme. Get one of these

If you get a slim model, which personally I got because the oled on the original can get burns on the screen.

Since you made it a point not to mention your model I will assume you are using a vita slim. The 2 big trigger grips for the vita slim are the following

and
www.play-asia.com/remote-play-assist-attachment-for-playstation-vita-slim/13/70a3hf
I have the vita 1000 version of the first one and it's pretty good. I have heard some complaints about build quality when it comes to the shoulder buttons but mine is pretty good. The Hori one I haven't tested but Hori is top notch when it comes to accessories. The Hori one is out of stock on play asia but you can find it on ebay and Amazon Japan (they will ship to the US but it runs about $15)
https://www.amazon.co.jp/【L2-R2、L3-R3ボタン搭載】リモートプレイアシストアタッチメント-PlayStationVita-PCH-2000専用/dp/B01ERA94BY/
If you're just looking for a smaller but still good grip I would check out the PDP Vita slim grip. The vita 1000 version is pretty great but not 100% on the slim version. Might still be worth checking out
This is really good to give you the l2/r2 and l3/r3 buttons. I find it more comfortable than holding just the vita.
Grip
I have trouble with remote play in my house if I'm not relatively close to my PS4. Honestly, I haven't really tried to improve it or find my exact range. Most likely due to my wireless network. So just know your mileage may vary depending on your network setup.
