Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great for playing plenty of games, with a particularly great screen, though it's not quite seamless for competitive games due to frame rate drops and other streaming hiccups. In my experience, games like Madden are fun on here... Fortnite, not so much.

What I dislike about it is the fact of its limited functionality and capabilities.

I usually do not do reviews, but I absolutely love this device and the Midnight Black color! It is a great way to play your PS5 games in handheld mode and catch up on that nagging backlog. My PS5 console had been collecting dust recently due to my busy life schedule but since buying the portal I have not picked up my Switch 2 in days. I also love the cost of the device as well given how expensive gaming has become as of late.

I've owned the portal for about a month now. I haven't turned on the TV my PS5 is connected to since then. Yes its that good and immersive. I played the whole game of ghosts of tsushima, now cyberpunk and some overwatch. Everything feels native as if there was a cartridge system like the switch. And the screen is the absolute perfect size and its absolutely beautiful! I've not have any network issues like I do with ps remote play on third party devices. As a father this has been such a joy yo have and I can play games in yhte same room where family likes to spend time at. totally worth it and a fine extension to the ps5

With the new updates the ps portal is so worth it. You don't need a PS5 even anymore to play it. Just get a subscription to playstation plus and as long as you have ok wifi you get a huge amount of games to play! Works amazing. I was never a fan of cloud gaming but this has changed my mind. And it's at a great price! If you have a PS5 it works out even greater cause you can play your library basically everywhere now

I was skeptical about "Remote Play" devices, but the Portal has exceeded my expectations. With my PS5 hardwired to my router, I get almost zero latency while playing in other rooms. The 1080p resolution looks incredibly crisp on an 8-inch display honestly, it looks better than some of my older monitors.

I like the idea but the controlling on actual gaming is off and you must have a strong internet connection to play

My son loves this product, he plays with it everyday.

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.

Works great for PS on the go. I travel 70% of the year for work so using this to continue gaming in downtime is great.

It’s been great for gaming away from the tv. As others might have noted there may be some mirco-stutters and occasional loss of connection, but this usually depends on your internet set up. Hard-wiring your ps5 to the modem usually produces the most stable connection. Also, it might just be me but if I’m not holding the ps portal in a very specific way, then my hands get some pretty nasty cramps. I suggest trying to getting hands on with one first before purchasing to make sure it feels comfortable for you.

Overall, I think the portal gives a pretty good experience. It's great for people who want to game while the TV is occupied with something else, and want the full experience you get while playing directly on your PS5. The biggest surprise for me was that there's almost no lag. Even side by side with your TV, the difference is hardly noticeable. One of the biggest reasons I purchased was the ability to remote play on other wifi networks, and it definitely exceeded my expectations there. Again, there was almost no lag. Even playing 2k, where you have to time your shot well, I wasn't disrupted by lag at all despite my PS5 being over 100 miles away.

Build quality is fantastic, and the screen is gorgeous. The connectivity to the console is excellent with very rare hiccups, and I’m using a 1gb WiFi FiOs connection for reference. I only play single player games and this device is perfect for games like Ultros, Balatros, FF7 Remake, Ratchet and Clank, and Metal Gear Solid: Master Collection. I don’t play shooters on this because I prefer a larger screen for that, but im sure others would enjoy it. If you’ve been on the fence, do yourself a favor and get one now that they’re back in stock regularly.

Works great! Love playing ps5 on the go. The PS portal originally sounded like a dumb purchase but I find myself reaching for it more often than the regular dualsense & tv play.

Love it feels amazing screen is amazing display amazing handheld.

Excellent! Works exceptionally well at home and not, so long as there a good internet connection!

Bought as a Christmas gift and he hasn’t put it down since awesome buy.

Great for home use. Wife ues the TV I still can game!! Went on vacation and took it but could not connect to my PS5 maybe the net was to slow? idk For 200 bux though was a good buy so I can still play at home if the TV is being used.

I almost rhought about returning this the first day cause lag was so bad and i thought with my wifi6 i was good. Once i swapped my ps5 over to ethernet from wifi the portal was a lot better. As a casual gamer dad i played my ps5 less often than i do now, maybe 2-4 hours a week. Just finding time to get the main tv to myself was always an issue. With the portal i find it a lot easier to just sneak in a game even if the tv is occupied by the kids. I get to still be present but can play my favorite games. I would totally recommend this for casual gamer parents with a few extra bucks to burn.

This was the best Christmas present that my husband said that he ever received since we gotten married. He absolutely loves it!!
