Customers are saying

Customers admire the Portal's ease of use, excellent camera quality, and intuitive touch screen. Many appreciate the device's straightforward setup and the inclusion of Alexa functionality. However, some users wish for a longer battery life and a wider selection of apps. A few also noted that the device's design and the need to remain plugged in are limitations.

    Had everything in it that I was looking for as a gift for my grandmother. Unfortunately, when I tried to set it up her WiFi signal was horrible and I had to return it.

    Doesn’t tell you how to disconnect from apps like pandora once turned on. Not so easy to turn off, had to remove app and reinstall to shut off music. Could not find any other way
