Customer Ratings & Reviews

Arrived earlier than expected. Box had minor damage, but product inside showed no signs of damage. Device works well.

Easy to set up. Convenient to travel with and goves you access to your PS5 as long as you have good wifi

I really enjoy using the portal. Its incredible to play PS5 games on the go and now with the remote access to some ps5 games without the console its even better.

You don't need a PlayStation 5 to use this portable station. You can purchase the PS premium yearly pass and stream games via Wi-Fi. Zero lag, and it runs smoothly.

This portable device has alot of great features and new updates. I enjoy playing with this to kill time.

Good product just wish it didn’t have to connect to Ps5.

It’s very nice and sleek, obviously the feel is different from the actual ps5 controller but overall he liked it. Very convenient because you don’t necessarily have to be in the same room as the console itself.

Great way to kill time. Hate that you cannot download games straight to the device. All games are streamed via wifi.

This thing has been fantastic. At first, I didn't think I would be using it often. like, if I want to play the PS, i'll just play on the TV, but the experience has been magical. Now instead of playing on my couch until way too late in the night, now I play on my bed until way too late. Can't talk to the experience about playing it outside my house though. Lastly, I love the feel of the controller, like I'm actually holding a PS controller, when comparing my experience to the Asus ROG Ally, in which the controller just felt awkward.

Excellent product, you just have to make sure you have a good Wi-Fi signal, otherwise you lose connection all the time.

Love this thing been using for a while. Very helpful to pick up and play a game in between being a full time adult

Been a while since I had handheld gaming device, and sony did right by the portal.

The Portal is a great little device, even at home. Since mine arrived in early February, I’ve completed two long games because I can pick it up & play at any time. If I want to keep an eye on sports on the TV, I can still complete sidequests in big non-linear games. I can lay on the couch or in bed and play. If I go out of town for work, I can connect to hotel wifi and keep playing. Now there are caveats, of course. There is an expected and understandable lag which means it’s not ideal for something like, say, online fighting games. If your wifi signal is weak or goes out, you’ll also experience stuttering or a disconnect, though thankfully you won’t necessarily lose game progress unless your PS5 loses power as well. For me, I’ve found it invaluable in completing games like Yakuza that have loads of content, since I can play a little bit here and there without needing to be tethered to my big TV and AV setup. It’s never going to replace such a thing as the preferable way to play, but it makes a great companion. It’s even fairly comfortable to hold for long periods, since it’s just a screen wedged between a DualSense controller. The additional weight is noticeable, but I’ve spent 5-6 hours playing at a time and never felt any serious discomfort a little 5 minute break couldn’t fix.

Good product for the value. Good price and easy pick up

Amazing device, works great for streaming games. Even better now with the updates

Great! YOU DO NOT NEED A PS to play. There are a lot of games.

The handheld that is surprising easy to use, inexpensive yet pleasantly well made. Sony has made a really user friendly product.

I am so glad I got this now. I can enjoy my games anywhere. I’m at as long as I have Wi-Fi.

I preordered (switched to shipping after in store pickup debacle) and have loved it since day 1. This product has a target audience in mind and I fit that bill. My console is in the family room and not always accessible to me. The Portal allows me to jump in to any game while my kids or wife are using the main tv. That’s it. That’s what this does. I can play when I want to play. The screen is crisp and looks great for an LCD screen. Single player games run extremely well with practically no input lag. If you play competitive FPS, there is a slight delay that may not yield the best experience. Initial setup was a breeze though I did get some connection issues when connecting to 2.4ghz. A little tinkering with my network settings and those issues were gone. Note, if you have multiple connected devices, it’s highly recommended to set up QoS or move low priority devices off the 5ghz band. I have used it outside of my house and it works just as well as if I were home. I have had multiple people connect to their consoles on my Portal and it’s just like signing in to the app and they were off to the races.

The PlayStation Portal is indeed very popular and very very fun to play with! Love this for ever
