    It feels and looks great but it will depend on how good your wifi is for it to stay connected.

    I think Sony swung for the fences and struck out. It is not a bad product. I just think there could have added more feature. If you have a PlayStation this isn’t a necessity buy. Unless you are someone who can’t live without gaming when you leave your house then I understand. But if you don’t have strong WiFi this thing is pointless

    Great for home use with good WiFi. Seems weaker connection outside. Handles better than the switch due to the controller design

    I miss the PSP. It was a standalone product there's nothing wrong with the portal but it's not very efficient. You must have very good Wi-Fi and even then it's not very good with online games. The joysticks are extremely fragile I've already had to replace the portal once due to stick drift. I would not recommend this product.

    The overall build of the PS Portal was good quality for the price, however, it was very laggy despite being connected to strong stable internet (300 mbps+). After not being able to fix the issue, I had to return it because it remained the same.
