    surprisingly capable device.

    It's actually a fairly solid device that has surprised me. It can still be better. For the price and the functionality, it is pretty impressive. What really surprised me was that I was at my friends house 50 miles away in the next county. He has very good internet and solid wifi connectivity at his house. I was trying to show him the thing by connecting to his PS5. And that did not work well at all, in fact it got stuck and I had trouble getting out of an error screen. Then when I finally was able to get back to the home screen, it did something I wasn't expecting. After about 30 seconds. It told me that it had connected to my PS5 back home. A bit surprised I connected and proceeded to play a Contra demo, which requires some decent quickness to play the game well enough to beat it. And then I showed my friend the FF7 Rebirth demo, set the game to performance mode because there's no point playing a 30fps mode when the resolution is set to 1080p. And it ran at a slightly stuttered 60fps mode. Some odd artifacts from time to time, but overall. I was playing a very nice high production game at a very smooth framerate. My friend immediately took notice and became interested in the device. Obviously it boils down to you being somewhere with a good wifi connection and also having a good overall inter et connection. But for $200, you can play some really nice games that run good enough to actually play them. The only thing I am still disappointed is the battery life. Bit eventually you will go somewhere where there's a wall plug

    Had to return the first one due to being defective no connection possible to my PS5, neither Sony or Best buy troubleshooting could help. Returned for a replacement. Good to go now.

    Much improved with 4.0 Software Update

    I purchased the Portal on release day and ended up returning it after a week. Software issues led to lots of stuttering in games, especially in scenes with lots of panning & motion. Control was nearly unplayable for me on the original system software due to this issue. After a major software update (4.0) I heard these issues had been fixed and decided to give it another try. I'm happy to say that my experience is drastically different this time around. Games run near flawlessly and I don't notice any of the original issues that plagued the system on release. Some open world games with lots of foliage (FFVII Rebirth) may still show slight signs of compression when the screen is in motion, but in terms of response times when buttons are pressed it feels really good. If I had to critique the system, I wish the battery lasted longer and that the controller vibration was closer to the PS5 controllers. The vibration feels less precise overall.

    The best thing PlayStation has come out with!! Love the feeling of sitting on the couch and being comfortable and relaxed using it without having to sit in a chair in front of a screen!

    Great for travels, or for play in bed. You need to have the console apart; it is a plus to have the remote console.

    Made my boyfriend extremely happy! Great for traveling, especially to see family. He used to take the whole console and now he can play all his favorites from far away. Pretty amazing!

    It’s a cool thing, the device was open box, it was still clean though, I haven’t had any issues with it. I’ve took it on my 1st trip and it worked like it was supposed to. If I had to I would by an open box item again. The value and quality was so worth it.

    Wife wants to watch TV? Too easy, switching from tv to the portal is fast and if you have good wifi streaming has little to no latency.

    Great system. Love that I my son can use the hand held console when he is out of town for work as opposed to having to pack up his whole system.
