    This works great for some. It didn't really fit what I was hoping to get from it, but it worked fine, display was nice, no issues with it after 9 months of owning it. Best if your console is hardwired. If not, there will be some input lag esp on FPS.

    The portal is a great product for playing your PS5 on the go. I petsit a lot and sometimes you just need some sort of entertainment, so I got this to keep me busy when I'm bored at other people's houses. It's so much better than trying to use your phone for remote play. 10/10 recommend.

    Probably one of my favorite pieces of tech. Being able to play when I travel or somebody else’s occupying that TV I can still play my game and not watch love is blind. Definitely with all the updates that they continuously push.

    When it works it is the best accessory to the PS5! Depending on your internet setup, it may not always be able to connect to your PS5 in every room. But for me, I have the PS5 hooked up to a Ethernet in one room. And then I play in another near my router and 90% of the time I have no issues and love being able to play my Playstation games in front of the TV.

    Love my Portal

    I've greatly enjoyed my PS Portal. It's been convenient to be able to play my PS5 games around the house and not have to always be in front of the TV. My kids like to take the Portal with them to their grandparents' house, and it's worked perfectly for remote gaming there. We've used it a few times remotely with my phone's wifi hotspot, and it's hit or miss if it works. Sometimes it works perfect with the phone connection, but sometimes not at all. It depends how good your phone connection is. The screen quality is fantastic and all the buttons feel top quality. I am a little disappointed that you can't connect Bluetooth headphones to it, although the Sony Pulse Elites work great with the Portal. I can't wait to see what features get added with future software updates. I feel like the Portal is at the right price for the high quality and I would recommend it.

    I was skeptical on how well this would work but ended up loving it. Great quality, easy to use and game plays great from another room in my house (haven't tried it from a different location)

    I have a PS5 with disk drive so if i want to play a different game i have downloaded, i have to physically switch the disks in the console itself which defeats the purpose if im going to be away from the console or don’t want to switch it out every time. Curious to know who this would work with a digital ps5 as opposed to the physical disk console. Next issue I’ve ran into is a little bit of lagging. As it’s trying to mirror the console, it can lag a bit and depending on the game being played could cause issues. For what I do it’s minimal and can play through it. Overall it’s pretty cool and the screen size is big for handheld console. This has it’s time and place but would prefer to play on an actual tv if given a choice. Overall, if you’re a PlayStation fan and have a little money burning a hole in your pocket like I did, i’d say give it a try.

    Fully console experience in the palm of you hands

    For all Dads out there, the PlayStation Portal is a solid option for remote gaming. It connects seamlessly to the PS5, allowing you to play your favorite games away from the main TV when it is occupied by Bluey or Sesame Street. The screen is sharp, and the controls feel just like a DualSense controller. However, it’s limited by requiring a constant, strong internet connection, and it doesn’t support cloud gaming or local apps. Overall, it’s great for PS5 owners who want a fully console experience while their main TV is occupied or while laying in bed, but some limitations may not make it ideal for everyone.

    It's a Device that no one asked for but definitely needed. I'm a father of 2 and i use this while they sleep. It feels great, fast response and my favorite factor is the big screen. It is not the same as my OLED C1 LG but it gets the job done. I highly recommend it. Worth $200 plus the tax

    Best gift ever given. My little brother was stoked to have this game sent to him. He couldn’t wait to break it in while sitting on the toilet. Perfect for on the go gamers.

    Love the ability to play PS5 games without being tied to the TV. I’ve ready that some have problems with connectivity, but I’ve had zero issues at home, haven’t traveled with it yet. Very happy with this purchase.

    Drops connection constantly

    Amazing when it’s functioning as intended but it drops network connectivity nearly every time I use it, regardless of the strength of the WiFi signal or configuration. I have a google 6e tri band mesh router with three access points, along with 1 gb per second fiber service (1gb both upload and download) and it still repeatedly drops connection. Pretty sad because the screen, sound, and build quality are all top notch but that isn’t worth anything unless the wireless connection is stable. It’s worth noting that no other devices on my network ever drop connection or lag whatsoever. Also, my ps5 is hardwired directly to the base modem in the google config.

    A really good devise for relaxing in bed or if you share a TV with someone. Requires a strong wifi connection especially if you're on a different network. Even though the joysticks are supposed to feel like a Dual Sense they fell off to me. Just a little too tall.

    The portable beats the switch on comfort alone

    I have been waiting for a sony portable gaming device that fits in my grown up hands. Tge psvita was slmost goid enough but not quite right. This thing is great. It is lite weight and has a beautiful screen. Make sure you create a separate network on your router to connect both your ps5 and playstation portable to. This will help lesson the glitching that will sometimes happen. Network over crowding ( phones, tvs, ipads, computers, devices that use your internet) cause the speed slow downs and glitches. You shouldn’t experience this on a deficated network running top speed. Tye device is basically a dual sense controller with a nice sized screen where the touch pad woukd be. Its bigger and better thsn the switch 2 screen. I love Nintendo but tfe switch 2 is heavy ttats hard to hold for long periods. The portable beats the switch on comfort alone.

    I enjoy it for the most part. It gives me the opportunity to play while my wife can watch TV. I like the portability and another option of gaming that it provides. Nice to travel and still be able to play your games without having to pack up the whole system. Only downside is the lag or connectivity due to various internet speeds.

    I was hesitant to get this, I'll be honest. When I first heard about Portal, I was like, "Just play on the PS5." But I also have kids who use the TV. It's actually nice to be able to play games while they're on the TV. PlayStation Premium also has streaming games, and that works beautifully on the Portal. I'm thinking about taking this with me while traveling to see how well the streaming works. The screen is very high quality. The audio from the device isn't spectacular, but it's better than the on-device audio of my Legion Go. It's hard to get good quality mobile audio and Portal's is acceptable.
