This purchase has been a very large leap 8n gaming for me. I know that this device is not a stand alone portable gaming device, but it has truly given me the ability to clear my back log of games. While at the same time allowing the rest of the family that same alloted time for shows or movies. A big win all around.

As long as you got a good stable wifi its great! Nothing like joining in fighting for democracy on Helldivers 2 with friends no matter where I am at. Comfortable to hold, great battery life and ensures im not using my phone for remote play and wasting its use.

Had this on the wishlist for awhile. After watching plenty of reviews and having a $100 gift card, I decided to buy this. It is easy to set up. Connect WiFi and make sure your PS5 has remote play enabled. It can also play physical games as long as the disc is inside the PS5. It is a great alternative when you want to play PS5 games in handheld mode. Especially when the TV is being used by someone else. Definitely worth the purchase!

I am so happy with this purchase I can't recommend it enough. I do think to get max use of the portal you should have the PSN premium. Which allows you to stream directly to the portal.

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.

When other members of the family are watching tv and i want to play my playstation games, i just grab the portal and start playing anywhare in the house or outside in the patio. also, i can play my stream games anywhere as long as i have internet.

I've been really enjoying it recently, although you need a internet connection at all times to use, its nice being able to play my PS5 games while im in bed

5 Stars all the way! This product solves all the problems I had with getting downtime to play. I typically play when the kids go down for bed. This enables me to play while not taking the television from my wife while still being in the same room with her. I highly recommend this product, please keep in mind as I told my wife it is essentially a controller with a screen. I have played a number of online games with no issues such as Destiny 2.

This thing is awesome! It has a screen with excellent graphics and the sound quality is amazing. You can connect your PlayStation and play your games on this handheld device. It’s the perfect size and the battery life is great!

I love it — definitely worth it for travel or gaming on the go. Even if you don’t own a PS5, you can still use it by getting PlayStation Plus. It’s honestly a must-have.

The PS Portal is certainly not for everyone. I think it only appeals to a small variety of people. Remote Play seems to be only popular with hardcore Playstation gamers. I got it because my parents watch a lot of TV, sometimes they binge watch shows for hours and I get bored and sometimes want to play a game or if i'm playing something that is inappropriate or something not of their tastes I would play the PS Portal on that specific game. When it works it works, but I recommend connecting it to a 5G network as I ended up doing, not a 2 GHZ network. While the overall functions are good it's a shame the Streaming services seem to be blocked and that would have been a great selling point to stream shows on the PS Portal as it has a really great screen and very useful when you need it. It isn't perfect but there is certainly room for improvement.

The controls fit perfectly in your hands unlike the switch. The battery life is really good. The graphics are amazing and I didn’t really see any lag while playing as llong as you have a good WiFi connection.
If you are someone who wants to play while your tv is in use, or just to play on the couch or elsewhere in the house vs being front of the tv or monitor its a great device.

Love having my ps games portable. The screen is the right size compared to my iPhone previously. I think the WiFi issues are not great. The portal uses ps remote same WiFi as your home network which competes with others using the same WiFi. My internet is gigabit but my slow Google wifi creates network contention. It has pretty poor WiFi reception on top of that.
When no one’s streaming it works great.

I think this product has some very good pros. The screen/sound is great, and the fact you can play games on your console without actually being on your console. Unfortunately, I did have one pretty deal breaking con, and that would be the streaming latency. The streaming latency isn’t always bad and isn’t necessarily horrible, but it is enough to make games not as enjoyable.
