Definitely worth it! I was skeptical because I seen reviews talking about WiFi issues…I have decent internet at home. 800mbps and my ps5 is connected via WiFi, when I’m at work I use my phone (T-mobile service) as a hot spot and its connects with no issues sometimes it may disconnect but I work inside a office that has bad signal anyway I can still
Play GTA online and nba 2k24 (NBA a little laggy when shooting) but I have no complaints!! Definitely worth it! Also if your family man this is perfect! Can disappear from the wife and be in the basement or in the yard playing the game when she get to nagging lol.

Was skeptical about buying the PlayStation portal because all the reviews I saw online , I decided to give it a try & it surprised me on how well it performs , The PlayStation Portal Works Really Well for online games! I recommend having a stable internet connection at home , to prevent any lagging and have a smooth gaming experience.

Hi speed Internet needed for best experience and I wish the picture quality was better for fast paced games even and for the best experience you MUST set your PS5 to 1080p and performance mode but you can only do that on console not the device it self but for what it is it works good enough to play away from your console IF you have good Internet.

Hear me out. The thought behind this is awesome but there are lot of people who complain about this not working and some of them are valid. One of the things that you need to understand is that this will deliver high quality graphics and for that you need a good connection. You also need to make sure that your PS5 and portal are both connected to a 5ghz network because its now the standard. If your router doesnt have 5ghz then get one because 2ghz is outdated.

I love this thing. I think its priced great for the quality. I do have some connectivity issues occasionally, but I think I need to buy a WiFi extendor for my basement as the PS5 is pretty far from our router. All in all it has worked great.. I probably have more screen time on this thing than my actual PS5 that's hooked up on the big screen downstairs.. the portability and convenience makes it way easier for me to actually chill and play at the end of the night.

System works great. Experiencing no connection issues. Now I'm able to play my PS5 anywhere in my home or on the go. Please note you have to have a dependable Wi-Fi network and a ps5 to connect to in order to play. I give it four stars because you are not able to connect any Bluetooth headset. You have to buy a special PlayStation link headset for that. However, it does have headphones jack for corded headset. All in all, I am glad PlayStation made this accessory.

The Sony PlayStation Portal Remote Player takes gaming to the next level by offering smooth remote gameplay, easy-to-use controls, and improved connectivity. It makes gaming more convenient than ever, letting players dive into their beloved games from wherever they are, whenever they want. Plus, its stylish design and ability to work with both iOS and Android devices make it an essential addition for gamers who value freedom and flexibility in their gaming setup.

I wanted something that would give me the freedom to play my Ps5 if I couldn’t be on the couch in the living room and this was the perfect solution, I was actually surprised how well it works having delved into cloud gaming and other options before.

This thing rocks,as long as you have internet where you are you can play your favorite games. Of course faster internet the smoother the experience. I have noticed minor skipping seldomly which will no doubt be fixed with a patch im sure. Overall though games feel more emersive than ever and often preform flawlessly. Picture quality and haptics are top notch as well as the triggers its like taking your controller with you on the go even has the blue light up the sides- a nice asthenic. If you can get your hands on one do it ignore the people that say it sucks they clearly dont see its true purpose

I've been using this for the past couple of days now and it's honestly great to use around the house. I have my PS5 hardwired in our office, but sometimes I want to continue playing my game on the couch or even in bed. There is a SLIGHT delay, but the graphics and everything is amazing. You have to get used to the delay for games like COD, NBA 2K, and FC24. Overall really great product. Can't wait to use it while traveling!

Your experience will completely depend on the quality of you WiFi. But it is a surprisingly decent device… We have 1gb fiber with eero WiFi 6e routers and it works amazingly…. However I had the portal for a month when we had pretty crappy internet with stock routers… and the experience was MISERABLE

Love this thing it connects well when I’m at home ‘I haven’t used it outside of my home yet but I have a trip coming up and I plan on bringing it along
But for the most part it works well while at home

I wasn’t sure if I was going to like the Portal at first, when I realized that this device was just for remote play and not one for streaming games or the like. But I quickly found myself really enjoying using it. The screen is awesome and great quality and the controls work wonderfully. I’ve been playing my PS5 so much more thanks to the Portal. That being said, you really do need to make sure you have access to great wi-fi or it won’t work at all. So, no playing on hotel wi-fi or at the coffeeshop, unfortunately.

I like it a lot but your PS5 needs to be connected to the internet via cable or you’ll have a hard time connecting to the console. The picture is great and the size is good for viewing and the grip is comfortable for both hands.

Purchasing the portal was definitely smooth. When I was picking up my order the employee acknowledged me immediately and ofcourse made sure I had the right info to pick up my product

I like the design of the portal by having the ps5 controller design. The connection was stable as long as your near your router. I recommend for people who share a tv where their ps5 is connected and can still play their ps5 anytime while another person is using the tv. I don’t think it will work well outside or traveling depending on the internet connection. The portal is a companion device and don’t expect much other than being able to walk around the house and play your ps5 games.

Its a good device for office type or home settings. Not good for on the road travel. Unless you have starlink internet lol.
But overal not bad for a quick play.

When you’re laying in your bed and don’t feel to get up and play - ps portal ps portal!
All I got to say is this is perfect for those busy fathers that are on the go and when night time comes and the bed is calling….. you can put in a little bit of hustle on your favorite game before you shut eye. Idk that’s me. Anyways I am satisfied with this and couldn’t ask for better.

I was hesitant about this product. However I have used it almost daily since I got it. I have alot of digital games and that is how you make the most of this product. The graphics are incredible and I have played online. Online gameplay drains the battery life quicker but for the most part you can get a solid amount of time gaming, online or otherwise! Highly recommend if you want to game and not have to haul your PS5 around. 10 out 10 must try again!!
