Probably the best gaming purchase I've made after my PS5. Cloud gaming also syncs my progress on console and on the go. A must have for gaming while on vacation.

I live in a one bedroom apartment with my wife, which is fine but we only have one tv. On nights when my wife’s friend Jake comes over I have to be secluded in the bedroom away from my PS5. Having the portal has helped alleviate this problem as I can now game while he is over. I plan on buying the headset next so I can mute out the panting from the other room, they say the are working out but my wife doesn’t look any fitter. Oh well 10/10 would recommend.

I really enjoy using this, especially when the TV is in use by other family members. I'm a dad, and being able to play PS5 handheld is great when anyone else wants to use the TV.
I wouldn't use it to play frame dependent games like Street Fighter 6 due to input lag, but it's great for something like Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth, where timing doesn't need to be perfect.
8/10 definitely recommend it to parents that want to play PS5 and share the TV.

Ever sifne the update withh cloud gaming it has been so smooth. No ps5 needed ajd they added games every week when i travel I can take my portal with me. Even though its in beta one day we can play our games or maybe download them but no lag or nothing when I play

I get that the Portal is somewhat divisive but I kind of like it. I get to keep on playing when my girlfriend wants to use the TV and that's all I really want it for. I personally wouldn't use it for anything competitive (EAFC for me) or any game that requires quick and precise movement (any FromSoftware games) but it works well for anything else.

Great resolution can always be better. Also great if the other features of playstation would work, not just online games and the one disc inside console.

It’s made by Sony-so of course it will outshine the 3rd Party Competition. Yes you could use a Steam Deck to get close to the same experience on OLED, but let’s be honest why would you pay more? I wish the screen was OLED, but it’s simple and it works. It lags on occasion when out of home network, but it’s to be expected. Overall it’s new and I’m sure Sony will release future updates to alleviate issues.
PARENTS I’m sure some have discovered you NEED a PlayStation 5 for this work. This is not a Nintendo Switch.

Once I was finally able to get it in my cart I thought it was a fluke. Kind of like a unicorn sighting. I hit buy without hesitation. I couldn’t believe it. I had been trying to purchase this for my husband since November when it came out. He was over moon! The graphics are amazing. Has the feel of the PS5 remote, rather than backbone. So far I feel it has been pretty good especially for traveling. If you can ever get one with out over paying online for one get it!

The PlayStation Portal is a game-changer (pun intended).
I've been using it for a while now, and I honestly can't believe how much I love it.
With my internet connection (500 down and 100 up), I forget I'm even streaming games. This is my new favorite way to experience my PS5 titles.
The screen is gorgeous, the controls feel fantastic, and the experience is seamless.
It's basically a PS5 in your hands, and it's amazing.

As always the folks at Best Buy show day after day that they are the best in the business. I had a myriad of questions and the young lady had answers.(wish I would have gotten her name) Described what I wanted and she took me to the PS Portal. What a great device. Thanks for everything miss!

Excellent device. A must if you’re having to share the TV. A bonus if you have PS plus premium and play streamed games from anywhere. If it can be helped, make sure to have your PS5 hardwired to your router/modem. Happy gaming!
