    Decided to buy one because of the PS plus streaming capabilities now and it was well worth it. No lag or glitches and it's not even fully released yet. I don't really use it for remote play but even that works pretty well. Highly satisfied with this purchase.

    Honestly I was surprised I was even able to get one! I was on the website at 12am & was seeing it was unavailable, then around 12:20 got on the website again & it was available to add to cart! As soon as I placed my order, I refreshed the page and it was then unavailable! I was so happy I was able to get one! Overall, the Playstation Portal is great, love how big the screen is & super easy to connect to my PS5. There is a bit of a lag on it, don’t know why but not too much of a difference.

    Overall I like my portal but its usability is completely reliant on your internet. I have a gig speed wifi and sometimes that isn't enough for my PS5 to broadcast out to my portal. It would be nice if my ps5 was plugged in via Ethernet but sadly my router is on a different level. When everything is running smoothly the portal is a joy and is crisp but when everyone is streaming in the house my games look like something out of the 16-bit days.

    Love this device. It feels like you are playing locally versus streaming from another device. The form factor feels great in your hand.

    Great item, especially with the cloud syreaming feature being implemented (hot spot from phone for wifi on the go). But more importantly the gentlemen who assisted me went above and beyond with the service to best assist me.

    Connectivity isn’t the best through the device itself but overall it’s a great concept and love how Sony added the cloud streaming option now but you still need internet requirements for both cloud streaming and console mirroring.

    Gaming when the TV is being used by the family

    I thoroughly enjoy using the PlayStation Portal. I bought it to be able to play while my wife and son watch TV in our living room. Single player games seem to be fine, a little bit of input lag in MLB the show when pitching and swinging. I have not tried FPS games yet. This may not be the best option for competitive games, but if you want to get a gaming session in and you're trying not to always alienate yourself from your family. This is a great option.

    I got this for my boyfriend for Christmas and he’s been hooked! This little portable PlayStation is so easy to set up and the PlayStation console can be in rest mode while he plays on the go. Super affordable and makes game time with my man super easy!

    When i heard about this device i immediately knew i was the demographic. As a dad im often unable to go to my game room until the kids are sleeping. With the portal im able to play while the kids are playing. It feels like a duel sense. Id much prefer the portal over other remote play options. On home wifi its seemless for single player games. I connected it to my hotspot and the quality wasnt as great and i had a few frame drops but it was playable. Id recommend for any parent.

    This device is great to have on the go. Works best if you subscribe to Playstation premium and have a MYFI or Hotspot that gives off enough speeds to stream.

    For a streaming portable it does exactly what it should. I personally haven't had any connectivity issues and the quality has been great.
