The Portal, in my opinion, is for a specific gamer. One that shares the TV with family but would like to game whenever they can. I enjoy gaming while family is watching TV, and I can go outside too. I have not taken it out of the home so I don't know how true remote gaming works on the Portal, but at home the connection is solid. I have not experienced any lag or drops in rate, it is well executed. For my specific need, need to play while TV is being used, this is perfect. I used to remote play on my laptop but that was cumbersome, now it's flawless and very enjoyable.

ITS WORTH IT!!! The streaming quality is surprisingly smooth as long as you have decent Wi-Fi. Games look sharp, the controls feel exactly like a DualSense, and there’s basically no learning curve. It really feels like you’re holding a full PS5 controller with a screen in the middle.If you have a PS5 and want more freedom in when and where you play, the PS Portal is absolutely worth it. It’s simple, it works, and it makes gaming way more convenient.

A great product when I want to play PlayStation on the living room tv and my girlfriend wants to watch her shows at the same time. Before you buy though the product cast to your PlayStation so you’ll need good internet to use this product.

Took a while to be able to get one but I understand why. Machine works great. Makes the PlayStation more portable within your home. I would say plus you PS5 into a LAN cable and then you would never notice it's streaming. 10/10

Thanks to the ststem update on 11/19/2024, you can play stream from the cloud server without connecting to PS5 if you are a PlayStation Plus Premium member. The choice is limited, and they say that this is still a beta test, but it works! The save data are stored in the cloud and synchronized to PS5, so you can play seamlessly with both consoles. I am on a vacation away from home, but I can play at the hotel without flustrations. Hope this would be the official function and the choice of games will be increased.

Very good condition for an open box like it was hardly used! I personally use it almost everyday. I enjoy how it portable so I can use it on the go. Sometimes it does have connectivity issues, but otherwise it works fine.

Very well put together system. Graphics are good. Was worried about screen size but it’s actually a good sized touch screen which was a plus as well. Aside from needing WiFi to use it’s a great product. If you questioning rather you should purchase the PlayStation portal or not, my suggestion is to make the purchase.

I bought this thinking it was the second coming of the PSP. My intention was to be able to multitask with the PS5 by playing games on the portable and streaming on the tv. Did not know it could only mirror. That was disappointing for me. I like the concept, but it wasn’t what I was looking for.
