If you have access to a fast, reliable internet connection, then the PlayStation Portal will work awesome for you. I love the Midnight Black finish and the ability to not hog the main tv at night, but still enjoy my Playstation. I have been quite impressed and the battery life is better than i expected.

This PlayStation portable is a very good product. Just make sure that you have good Wi-Fi to backup this product. Just so everyone isn't aware, this is an add-on to your PS5 not a substitute for your PS5. You do need a PS5 system to play this PlayStation portable. That going ahead setup is super easy. I just jumped into a quick YouTube just to make sure that I did it right and then signed into my PlayStation on the PlayStation portable and jumped right in the gameplay. Initially it was a little laggy until a portable was able to get onto my Wi-Fi and play. So it is very Wi-Fi dependent. Gameplay seamless. Fantastic. I had black myth wukong and The new Star Wars outlaw as well as destiny. And it was able to keep up with the gameplay. Fantastic system. Enjoy taking it on the road. But just remember the further you get away from your system. It does take a little bit longer to connect. But overall fantastic by

I purchased this PlayStation Portal with a bit of skepticism thinking that it was going to be just a waste of money and without any value. But I’m going to be honest. This is the best addition to my PS5 any should have. This is so easy to use that it requires no effort to connect to your console and start playing. The feel of the controller is just was of you were holding the controller and the screen is so big that it is just perfect. I do have issues with conectivity when I’m outside of my home but the is also because of the internet I connect to. When connected to a reliable internet, the games are flawless just like if you were playing directly from the console. Another perk about this that I love is that when my wife wants to watch tv I can grab my Portal and play while she is watching tab. No more being upset of not being able to watch tv while I’m playing. At the end of the day. Yes this is a remote play like if it was from your phone but the feel is so much better. Thank you Sony for such a device. You can’t go wrong buying this.

Overall, a really nice successor to a PSP. It is easy to grab on the go and play some PS5 games on trips. The online connectivity can be a pain sometimes, as it can be difficult to get to work on some hotel wifi. I mainly use it for non-competitive sports games and rpgs. Build quality is questionable. I had some horrible joystick drift that I had to do a lot of troubleshooting for. Eventually, I was able to fix it without replacing the joycon module, but I almost did. The gaps for the joysticks seem to be larger than on a dualsense allowing more dust/ crumbs in.

The Playstation Portal is one of the best handhelds I have used. Yes it is a streaming device, ensure you have a great internet connection, otherwise the device is pretty useless.. I have used it with my PS5 and as a standalone device streaming games from my playstation plus library, both are very solid, I did have a few issues with stream quality when network traffic was high, but the game was still playable, visuals took a hit, looked like the resolution drops to 480p but the gameplay stays relatively smooth unlike xbox gamepass that adds in loads of packet loss issues, stutter issues, rubberbanding.. I suppose this is more on the servers Sony and Microsoft use and how cluttered they are vs the device itself, but it's a good point to note that games arent interrupted as much as they are with Xbox Gamepass.. Games play smooth, the device is a bit heavy, but im just not used to gaming on a handheld is all, I have tiny baby T-rex arms so it becomes slightly bothersome to hold up on its own for too long without resting my arms on something. All in all, this device saved my mental health.. I went from having a PS5 and never touching it due to the location i have it in, to now playing more games than I have in the last 10 years.. Executive dysfunction and all.

So happy I was smart enough to pre-order this. I have a very nice TV but it's much more comforting to play on this little screen. It certainly does have the occasional connectivity issue (less than 1% of the time). But it's a very nice add on for not a horrible price. But it's fast, comfortable, and very high quality

Easy to connect to our PS5 and works exactly as intended. I don’t mind that we can’t take it out of the house because it’s meant to be used when our toddler wants to watch something else on the TV. Screen quality is good, no latency issues with the controls and the battery actually goes on for a while. Would definitely recommend.

This PlayStation portal is awesome. It is exactly what my husband wanted. He wanted something he could play his ps5 on even away from home, he originally got a backbone for his phone from another place, but it would not work very great. Then when he saw this at best buy I got it for him for Christmas and he said it works great! He can play it anywhere with wifi or a hotspot and the quality on the device is perfect. Even I have started to enjoy it as well. Highly recommend!

Far exceeding expectations. Screen is gorgeous, controllers are comfortable. And freedom to play without any significant lag delay is really impressive.

I love the PlayStation Portal. Playing PS5 games anywhere (nearly) is fantastic! Great sound, great screen, no real negatives

As a frequent traveler, I was looking for a convenient way to enjoy my PlayStation games on the go and during downtime, and the PlayStation Portal has exceeded my expectations! Being able to play my PS5 games in bed, without having to set up downstairs every time, is a game-changer. The device is lightweight, easy to carry, and the screen quality does justice to the games’ visuals. The battery life is impressive, which is crucial for those long travel days. I found the setup to be straightforward, seamlessly integrating with my existing PlayStation ecosystem. The price point is also very reasonable, offering great value for a high-quality gaming experience. I highly recommend the PlayStation Portal to anyone who wants to keep gaming while away from their main console setup. It’s like having a portable PS5 at your fingertips!

The PlayStation Portal is an incredible device for remote gaming! It's sleek and portable, making it easy to take my PS5 experience on the go. The 8-inch screen is vibrant and delivers a crystal-clear picture. The DualSense controller integration is seamless, providing the same immersive experience as playing on a PS5. The battery life is decent, and the setup process is quick and straightforward. Overall, the PlayStation Portal is a fantastic way to enjoy PS5 games on the go, and I highly recommend it to any PS5 owner!

The PlayStation Portal works exactly as advertised. Setup was fast, the screen looks great, and the controls feel just like a DualSense controller. With a solid Wi-Fi connection, gameplay is smooth and responsive. It’s perfect for playing PS5 games when the TV is in use. Highly recommend for PS5 owners who want more flexibility.

I’m very happy with this purchase. The product works exactly as described and feels well built with good quality materials. Setup was quick and easy, and I didn’t run into any issues using it. Performance has been smooth and reliable so far, and it does what I need it to do without any problems. For the price, this is definitely a solid value. I would recommend it to anyone looking for something dependable and easy to use.

As someone with limited space in my room, I cannot hook up a TV to play the PS5 so this device is amazing for playing in bed. I own a Steam Deck that can do the same thing but requires a little bit more setup, and I personally prefer first party as it was an easy to connect and fluid experience. The screen is also pretty big which is a must have for me, so I think this is the perfect device. My internet router and modem are both in the room so connectivity is strong.

I absolutely love the PlayStation Portal. It’s a great handheld gaming system, especially if you already own a PS5. The screen is beautiful, the controls feel just like a regular DualSense controller, and it’s super comfortable to hold for long gaming sessions. Being able to play my PS5 games from anywhere in the house is a huge plus. That said, there are a couple things to keep in mind. Your PlayStation has to be on (or in rest mode with remote play enabled), and your experience really depends on your internet connection. If you don’t have strong, stable Wi-Fi, it can get laggy and impact gameplay. With a solid connection though, it runs smoothly and feels almost like you’re playing directly on the console. Overall, if you have reliable internet and want flexibility to game away from the TV, the PlayStation Portal is definitely worth it.

What i can say about the ps portal, its good for casual on the go gaming. Story based games isnt too bad. If your looking for on the go competitive play type of experience this isnt it due the fact of input delay depending on your internet connection but most of the time itll be decent. Its a good streaming device

Don't get me wrong portability is there. But in terms of graphics the quality does take a dive and it's pretty noticeable. Of course I'm not expecting the same quality you would get from a 4k or higher standard TV but you just can't unsee it. Another thing to keep in mind this is useless without a PS5 nearby. Don't expect to play this for cloud gaming because it doesn't have that capability. Unless it is added in the future. But the build quality is great, lightweight and obviously portable. If you want to play on the go then this is not it. Get a steam deck, ROG, MSI or Lenovo handheld for that.

Do you have excellent wifi? And do you often find the tv your PS5 is connected to hogged by other family members? Then this is for you. I find that runs really well about 60% of the time where it's gorgeous and HD looking, about 30% of the time it runs well enough, and 10% it looks like a blurry drunken potato. Your wifi will effect this.
