    The PlayStation Portal is one of the most underrated gaming devices Sony has released. It delivers a smooth, immersive PlayStation 5 experience without being tied to a TV, which is a game-changer for convenience and flexibility.

    Overall, the Portal is great. It takes some tweaking of your PS5 for optimum running, which isn't ideal if you are traveling when you discover the connection is unstable. The cloud gaming access makes this a solid handheld option for PS5 gamers. The open box unit was definitely worth purchasing.

    Very great product. The graphics are just as good as the actual console. You’re able to access your account on this device without even having your console. The screen itself is so big , it makes my switch look like an iPhone mini . lol This made a great gift ,

    MVP in my PS setup

    I was a little skeptical at first about how much I’d actually use the PlayStation Portal Remote Player, but now I can’t imagine gaming without it! This device has completely changed the way I play, and it’s perfect for those moments when the TV is tied up or I just want to game from the comfort of another room. The setup was super simple—just a quick connection to my PS5, and I was good to go. The gameplay experience is incredibly smooth. The crisp display and responsive controls make it feel just like playing directly on the console. Even games with more demanding inputs handle perfectly, with minimal lag. What really surprised me is how comfortable it is to hold for extended gaming sessions. The design feels well-balanced, and the buttons and triggers have the same premium feel I’ve come to expect from Sony. It’s like having the DualSense controller and a beautiful screen combined in one seamless package. One thing I love is the flexibility it offers. Whether I’m gaming from bed, the kitchen, or even out on the patio, I’ve got my PS5 right there with me. It’s also great for keeping the peace in a shared household—I can still enjoy my games without monopolizing the TV! If you’re on the fence about this, I’d say go for it. The PlayStation Portal Remote Player is an absolute game-changer for any PS5 owner. It’s been worth every penny for the added convenience and freedom it provides. Highly recommend!

    I love the PlayStation portable. I definitely love the fact that you can take it anywhere with you. Or you need to set an internet connection. Play all the games from PlayStation in the world.

    Love this project, it’s got great graphics and we love the size and capabilities. They only down side and the reason I didn’t give a 5 star rating is it seems to have trouble connecting and staying connected to the WiFi/PS5 at times.

    Cloud Streaming update really made this thing, as long as you have Premium PS Plus, it’s a great addition to the PS5. If you have premium, you don’t even need a PS5, you could get away with just cloud streaming games.

    This is a very nice device. The only thing i don't like is that I can't use it remotely without the Playstation 5 being on & also don't like that if i am using it, the console itself can't be used for someone else to play a different game. Other than that, it’s really awesome!

    As a father that constantly has to let my kids use my tv or follow them around the house to make sure they’re safe. This remote player is amazing, so addicting , I don’t even care to play on my tv anymore. I take this thing with me to work, family gatherings and even to ER visits

    The portal is a great way to play your ps5 around the house. It gives the flexibility of a handheld around your house. The only downside the battery life. It only last 3-4 hours and then takes a minute to recharge.

    Bought one for my son to use around the house AKA in the restroom or sitting in the livingroom. His worked as intended. I decided to buy one for myself and take to work to mess with during downtime. I was worried about internet connection, lag and overall functionality of the device. I left my PS5 on rest mode got to work and at lunch linked the PSP to the internet and it only took a few seconds to connect. Now, the wifi at my work sucks but the games played flawlessly with no delays, lags, pixelization or disconnects. I played the downloaded ninja turtles collection from the monthly games for about 10 min and I played Star Wars Outlaws for about 20 min. No problems as of right now. Im guessing that for others that had trouble it was user error because i was ready to return mine if it didnt work as intended but it did work so i will keep this in my desk for when ive got downtime and or just need something to distract me. I will update if i have problems down the road.

    The PlayStation Portal is a revelation for PlayStation gamers! Forget being tethered to your TV – this device lets you take your PS5 experience on the go, and it does it brilliantly. The screen resolution is absolutely stunning. Details pop, colors are vibrant, and it truly does justice to the incredible graphics of modern PS5 games. You're not sacrificing visual fidelity here; it's like having a high-quality portable display dedicated to your games. But a beautiful screen is nothing without performance, and the Portal delivers in spades. The near-zero latency is a game-changer. I was blown away by how responsive the controls felt. It's so smooth and seamless, you quickly forget you're not playing directly on your console. Whether you're engaged in a fast-paced action game or carefully navigating a complex puzzle, the Portal keeps up flawlessly. And let's talk about battery life. It's genuinely impressive. You can get a solid amount of playtime on a single charge, which is perfect for long commutes, travel, or just chilling in another room. No need to constantly worry about plugging it in. The PlayStation Portal hits the sweet spot of portability, performance, and battery life, making it an essential piece of kit for any PS5 owner. It's a true game-changer!

    The PS Portal is everything it is hyped up to be. I was skeptical, but it’s universally praised views on youtube(a platform where the tiniest flaws turns into an hour of non-stop complaining) sold me on getting it and it did not disappoint. Allows the family to watch something on the TV while I’m playing a game of NCAA 26. Go get it!!!!
