Customer Ratings & Reviews

To get the best out of this device you need 2 things: 1. PS5 plugged into your router via Ethernet. 2. Good wifi signal. In my experience, you can play most games at full speed without any issues. It's great for 3rd person action games, RPGs, platformers, etc. I assume twitchy online shooter games are less-good compared to just playing them on a console. But this is a streaming device, not a portable console. The screen is nice and big - a big win if you're used to playing/streaming games on your phone. The controller itself is basically all the same tech from the DualSense controller. Your hands might get uncomfortable after a long play session. Not sure if that's from the added weight of the device or the ergonomics of the device itself. It takes USB-C and has a headphone port, which is more than you can say about most devices nowadays. People like to compare this to handheld computers that cost much more and take much more work to set up PS5 streaming. This is a no-frills streaming device that works right out of the box. It doesn't promise to offer more than that.

Nice quality handheld. Love the new streaming functionality. Feels nice in the hands.

My son love ps portal thank you And also he does like iCloud and stream plus all the games he tells me this is the best ever!!

Extremely convenient for mobile gaming has to have a good connection but when it does. Works amazingly. The midnight is super clean too

Love it so far, just wish it had native Bluetooth capability.

Very cool and nice to have since the beta release. Just wish you could at least listen to Spotify while you play games.

Got this for someone as a gift and they love it. The only thing that is off putting is that in order for it to work well with no lag you have to have really really good WiFi. If you have amazing WiFi and a ps5 I would say to get this but if you don’t have $200 but want something like this the backbone works just as well.

Awesome addition to my ps5. The screen is super crisp and the console shockingly has pretty good speakers.

It is very nice to have since i can lay in bed and play my game now

Great lil device with some warts. The concept and the price are perfect for what you get. But you MUST have rock solid Wi-Fi in order to maximize the value of this thing. I wish you could tether this device via a wired connection. That would be dope.

Was a gift. Was a little difficult to get connected and has to have a strong wifi for it to work well. It has worked great since we were able to connect it to home wifi and the PS5.

Amazing screen size!!! Super comfortable to use and super convenient!!

This was awesome for the family road trip we took. My son loves it and rarely leaves home without it

My spurge for the month. I’ve had my head down in textbooks the past few semester. I was finally able to come up for air and decided to reward myself. Perfect for ps5 on the go

The PlayStation Portal is great fun! It serves the purpose I bought it for, which is to be able to play a game while the tv is being used someone else AND to play in bed. I used to rarely turn on my playstation, but now I use it all the time. Really a great device. It would be perfect if it had Bluetooth to connect wireless ear buds.

I gotta say i love this thing you can go as far as you want as long as your ps5 in power save mode and its linked to it

The Portal has been working well on my home network. Currently have Spectrum wigh 500/20 and the steaming has worked well in most locations in my house. Have not yet tried a cellular connection. Have really been using it with single player games and when try to play online (such as MW3) can notice some lag. Happy overall, thoigh.

Lovely item, just thought there should be a way to play the games in library without having to pay for subscription.

needs improvement for it to be a native remote player for ps5. a better/stronger wifi chip and higher bitrate could improve this. cloud stream is nice and offers a better consistency than remote play. if you have strong really good wifi with no network interruptions this can beat out the cloud stream. negative side is needing ps plus highest tier to use cloud play even if you own or bought the games. also if you’re gonna remote play from your ps5 please make sure to connect your ps5 via ethernet and put the portal on 5ghz network indefinitely with not a lot of congestion

Easy to pair and streaming good grafics ergonomic control volume its good can be better Will be great if you can connect to another tv if your not at home
