Customer Ratings & Reviews

I wasn't planning on buying the Portal. I saw it was available and bought it. So far it's been great without any issues. The screen size is good and everything works as advertised. I think I will play the PS5 more now that I don't have to sit in front af a TV all of the time.

The portal has been an awesome accessory device for me. I understand that not everyone is going to have the same experience due to different networking setups, but for mine, it has worked flawlessly. It's made me play my PlayStation way more helped me get even more value out of it

Bought This In Addition To My PS5. Connection Could Be Better But Overall When It’s Connected I Enjoy Laying In Bed Or Couch Without Looking At The Tv

This is a great streaming device for anyone that is interested in playing their PlayStation 5 handheld. Although you can play movies on your PS5, they will not stream to this device. Also if you're wanting to play co-op without split screen, this isn't going to be the answer. You can play co-op with one person playing on the TV and one person playing remotely but both screens will still display as split screens. The portal will only stream games and will display exsactly as it would on your TV. Quality of the streaming will depend greatly on users Wi-Fi quality. Feels very similar to the DuelSense controller in hand, with slightly smaller more raised joysticks. The screen is beautiful and a great size for handheld gaming.

Does exactly what it says it does! You can play anyhwhere with Wifi or just connect to your phone’s hotspot! Looks sleek, great picture and isn’t a hard adjustment from your big screen. I’m obsessed! Ignore the negative reviews and try it out if you can get your hands on one!

I do like the PlayStation Portal. My purpose of using it was to play wherever I wanted in the house. It accomplishes that. I use this quite a lot because of the convenience of not being attached to one room. I think it works for most games. However, the analog sticks are not the greatest for first person shooters. The analog sticks are smaller and it moves faster than a regular PS5 analog stick. I would have to slow down the vertical look to a 2 speed in order to aim perfectly. If they put the same analog sticks from the PS5 controller on the portal then it would be much better. Secondly, there are connection issues with remoting into the PlayStation 5 while in different rooms. Thirdly, I wish this was more portable so you can play the PlayStation 5 anywhere you go without having to keep the PlayStation 5 on and remote into it. Overall, I do enjoy it and I do use it a lot while at home.

The PS5 Portal brings console-level gaming to your fingertips with a sleek, portable design. the smaller size can feel a bit cramped for long sessions. Battery life is decent, lasting around 4-5 hours, but you’ll likely need a charger for extended play. Overall, it’s a fantastic way to play PS5 games on the go, though not the most compact option out there.

I love this thing i just wish it did more or was a standalone device however i am enjoying ff tactics on it right now but it mostly stays tucked away however for the price you paid it does what it says and does it well and its super comfortable to hold

Really great for gaming if you have a fmaily and they need the tv for somthing else, play your PS games while you kids watch there shows. Just be mindful of how far away you are from the Playstation itself and the wifi modem or get somthing to boost or a wifi repeater.

The item is great. have had no issues and the quality is top tier. sony did a great job.

If you have the use case the Portal is amazing. I have a shared living room TV so the Portal has been an amazing addition to my gaming setup. Would have given it a 5 but there’s some minor issues. First Sony doesn’t want you to use any headphones but there’s and connecting other products is a hassle. Second, if you have multiple users you have to sign out of the portal and sign in as the other users. It’s not an easy transition like it is on the console. Some of these issues could be patched and the future and then it would be the perfect remote player.

I wanted the PS Portal when it initially released. With all the complaints and downfalls prior to the new update I was kind of glad I didn’t buy initially. Now that I can connect to Hotel and other public type networks and stream games I don’t own with cloud gaming (Requires PS Plus Premium) I’m overly satisfied with this device….only thing I wish worked was other media players like Netflix, YouTube that I have on my on PS5. Definitely something to own if you love gaming on the go!!!

The device works flawlessly assuming your home network can handle the stream, the device does have a 3.5mm headphone jack but doesn’t support bluetooth headsets. Battery life is good and ended up purchasing the pulse explorers.

Good deal and fast shipping my son loves it he can use it anywhere

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.

Similar to the psp, very accessible and very accommodating. Highly recommended as long as you have strong WiFi connections.

Great for playing games around the house if you don't want to move your console or someone else is using the TV. Does take some getting used to playing on it but you get used to it quickly. I do really like how they have the controller handles compared to other handheld consoles. I think that's what separates this from others.

Recently picked up a PlayStation Portable, and it completely brought back the joy of handheld gaming for me. The design is sleek, the screen is bright, and the controls feel natural. I’ve been replaying God of War and Midnight Club, and the gameplay still holds up after all these years. It's amazing how something this old can still feel so fresh and fun. Definitely worth it for any gamer or collector looking for a portable classic.

Works great never had a problem. Connects every time without a problem as long as the WiFi is decent.

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.
