    Honestly, at first, I didn’t have much use for the device because, let’s face it, if you are at the same place as your physical console you’ll just rather play on a bigger screen. However, I had to travel for work and, as you all can agree, it was impractical to travel light with good old ps5 in a carry on. That’s when I tapped into the full potential of the PS Portal. Imagine going through Elden ring withdrawal light years away from your console and then being able to access it (as long as you leave it in rest mode) from afar and, as long as the wifi is good, play seamlessly on your PS Portal. It became the metaphorical last coke on the planet and I enjoyed it as if I was playing on the actual big screen at home (yes, at nearly 60 fps). Give it a shot. I highly recommend it!!!

    The portal is amazing device to use for remote play. Whenever the main TV is taken, I can connect to my PlayStation five easily and play complex games such as Elden rings without any lag. Also a perfect companion for when you were out and about or just want a quick break between work! I highly recommend it, it’s allows me to finish rpgs at my pace, whenever and wherever. The instruction to cloud gaming is also a huge benefit for people with PS+ premium.

    First off, it’s beautiful! I recently bought a PS5…my first PlayStation since getting the original PS1 back in the day. The first game I got was Spider-man and OMG! This game was beautiful! Upgrading the storage was a breeze! I’ve been with Xbox for the longest and now PlayStation is bringing me to the dark side. I love the remote play. Since I bought my portal, there’s been about two huge upgrades that makes you want this to be your main form of play. This thing is awesome! The screen is beautiful and I love the controls!

    I love my PS portal, but just know what it’s uses and limits are before purchasing. When my main tv is in use being able to lay on the couch and play my PS5 is priceless. Also the quality of build is excellent and the screen is immaculate. If you’re on the fence go for it!

    We purchased the PlayStation Portal Remote Player, and both my husband and our 8-year-old absolutely love it. What impressed me most is how intuitive it is. Neither of them needed a learning curve. They picked it up and were playing within minutes. The portability is the real game changer. It allows gaming to move off the main TV without sacrificing performance or comfort. The screen is bright and clear, and the controls feel just like a full DualSense controller, which makes the transition seamless. For our family, it’s been the perfect balance of flexibility and quality. It gives them the freedom to play anywhere in the house while keeping the full PlayStation experience intact. If you’re looking for a way to make your PS5 more accessible without compromising on gameplay, this has been a fantastic addition. Five stars.

    First time trying this device and its actually quite nice to being able to play the ps5 games in like a handheld mode. You just need good wifi signal and such to avoid blurriness!

    Bought the Portal to actually be in the living room and the family while gaming. It's great to relax lying down on the couch. It works great for that function and I can play all my favorite PS5 games (Stellar Blade, Helldivers) seamlessly. The UI animation for connecting to the PS5 is super cool. Small thing but it adds to the premium feeling. No connection issues, including with the Pulse Elite headset. There's stutters here and there but I hardly notice it. Input lag is minimal, and I can perform well in the above mentioned action games. This is definitely one of my best gaming purchases. At $200, it feels like a steal.

    I love it! I wish it were able to operate better when further away from home , but I truly love it. It’s nice to be to play not in one area.

    Love this purchase, I use it everyday. Works fantastic with the new update where I can stream games with just my ps plus subscription. If you are on the fence just get it.

    Let’s talk about what this thing ISNT to clear confusion. It’s not a standalone game player, and it’s not even the type of device you take with you to play on the train, plane, or even on crappy hotel WiFi. If you want to buy for those reasons, you’ll be disappointed. IF you’re a parent who doesn’t have the TV available in your home network, you want to play while laying in bed, or want to have quick sessions while holding a baby in one arm, then this is the device for you. With a strong local WiFi connection and a wired ps5, you’ll get excellent performance, true controller functionally, and a high fidelity screen. It’s worth it if you’re a member of a relatively slim target market.

    I didn’t expect to love this thing as much as I did. It runs shockingly well and way better than I expected a streaming device to. I’m genuinely impressed how well it works with any game I’ve played on it so far, from fps, RPGs and even MMOs (FFXIV). There’s nothing more I can really say about it. It just works. Just keep in mind, as with any and every streaming device, your experience and enjoyment with it will depend on your ISP. If you have a good internet provider and speed, your experience will reflect mine. If your internet isn’t quite up to the task, your experience will most likely not be as robust as mine is.

    So at first when i bought this beauty it kept disconnecting and lagging. Time and a few patches later and it rocks! I looked up videos to optimize the peformance and by switching off HDR, and a few other tweaks it works well. Sometimes my orbi router needs a reboot to get this device rolling well, but it does. Its perfect for short gaming sessions for that gamer with a busy life. When it works its pretty awesome. Its just subject to internet bandwidth is low, during peak hours. Disconnects still happen but its nowhere near as bad as when it first launched.

    surprisingly good battery life. screen is vibrant, and the lag time is minimal. i have the ps5 on wired connection, and the Portal on the 5Ghz home wifi, and COD Campaign was very playable.

    This device became more interesting to me once Sony opened up the cloud. It has great visuals, Sony Sound, and if you have a great internet connection will connect to your PS5 and the cloud. The software has been updated for ease of use but the lack of bluetooth hurts those who may have other devices they would like to connect to the device. Overall a great added peripheral for your PS5 or PRO experience to play anywhere at home or away if you can connect to a great wifi on the road.
