Customer Ratings & Reviews

Finally got one by chance at bestbuy yesterday. I have to say its more than i expected and games really do look good on the screen. Ive played Spiderman 2. Assassins Creed Mirage, and a little bit of fortnite. My internet is 350~ down and 50- up. Games run smooth.

Love it, great handheld even with out using my ps5

With a PlayStation plus premium subscription, this device plays the streaming games very well. Very natural feeling in the hands. I wish the blacks on the screen were darker and a wider contrast but this is also only $200 and the display punches above that price point. My biggest complaint is the lack of compatibility with third party Bluetooth headphones. I know they want to sell other hardware, but I already have too many expensive headphone choices at home.

I bought it my brother and he loved it . It is very good

I’ve been having my ps portal for over a year now and all I can say is that it’s worth every penny! Especially with its new update with cloud streaming. I’ve been able to recently play cloud streaming games(in its beta) while my wife plays on the ps5 with her account and haven’t had any kind of interference. Has been smooth out the box. Playing Remote play and now cloud streaming, no latency issues or lag or any disconnects. Definitely will continue using this awesome machine for years to come!

While the presentation of the hardware is a bit janky, the overall software side is very nice and does exactly what it is supposed to do. I am able to stream from my PS5 to this device on my home wi-fi. It's great as I don't always have access to the tv. It's also nice that I can play PS4 games as well (on the ps5 of course). It basically is a mirrored display and works like the remote function from the ps vita. I was able to go into different rooms and the quality pretty much held with little to no input lag what so ever. There were moments of a blotchy image but it was very rare in the few hours I've played with it. Overall, if you are looking to remote play in your home without getting a secondary controller for your phone, this is a good option. I wish I could play games natively on it as playing psp and vita games would have been excellent for this. Oh well, a good remote device overall.

Great way to play my PS5 when im not home. Smooth and easy to use.

I love it. It gives me a chance to play games on the go (depending on the wifi) but it's a really good device. If you have the higher tier of Playstation Plus it will be beneficial for you as well

i enjoy using this everyday on the go at work in the car at my cousins for holidays

Works great, bought it for my husband for xmas hasnt put it done.

Great product. If you have PS5 and play a lot of single player games or quick matches to play without TV. This makes my TV free and still game while watching mvovies on TV.

I love the idea of this product, however its not what I was hoping for. It is a great concept, similar to the steam deck, but it isn't quite there. It works pretty good around my house with my internet, however there is still input lag. At my house I tested the portal by playing madden 26 and Call of Duty Black Ops 7. Both games with great internet connection, I have input lag. My second test I spent some time at a relatives 7 hours away from my console. I experienced minor connection issues (took a little longer to connect than usual), lag, and still have the input delay. Now my relatives internet is not great, explaining the lag, but the input delay is what is lowering my rating. Despite being 7 hours away from my console or 2 feet away, the input delay seems to be the same. This product might not work the best for games like madden and Call of Duty, but those are the games I play. I would not recommend this product if you plan on using it for these games. Unfortunately, I don't know how well it functions with other games. Overall, I think this product could be great in the future with some updating. I look forward to an improved version.

PlayStation Portal is a comfortable, well-built handheld that streams PS5 games with a sharp 8-inch screen and DualSense-style controls. On strong Wi-Fi, it feels smooth and responsive, perfect for couch or bed play. However, it can’t play games locally, and performance drops on weaker networks. Audio options are limited.

Great product, very good with new cloud gaming abilitity.

The PlayStation Portal is a sleek, portable way to stream your PS5 games anywhere with strong Wi-Fi. Its crisp 8-inch screen and full DualSense controls feel premium. However, it lacks Bluetooth audio and only works via remote play—no cloud or native apps. Great for dedicated PS5 users seeking flexibility.

Honestly surprised with how well this looks, plays, and feels in the hands.

Great for getting away from the couch and playing my game in bed, on the go, or at a friends place

I like how I can just lay in my bed and play but it’s mostly better for single player games you can play multiplayer but you may lag overall I Enjoyed this purchase

I like it and it's definitely cool but I don't think you absolutely need it. It's very convenient of you travel or like to watch TV and play games but it can be a little slow and is very dependant on your internet. Cool product tho and $200 is a reasonable price.

After making a few adjustments! My portal runs great!
