Good, but could be better.

When it worked, it was enjoyable. I got this for gaming on the go around the house. At first the device was amazing and ran good while I was close to the WiFi router, but when trying to use it in other rooms, I encountered input lag and latency issues. For reference we have fiber internet and none of our other handhelds experience anything like this. So I think this is a good idea for someone that just wants to chill in the room with their router and use it.

As I've moved into the next stage of life (fatherhood) I was looking for a product that would still allow for me to game from time to time with the limited personal time I have. The Playstation Portal is the exact product I was hoping for! Easy to setup, online play was smooth, and a great travel companion no matter where you are traveling. So far extremely happy with the product!
PS Portal is great but nit in described condition.

I bought a open box excellent, when i received the device it functioned great but had a ton of scratches, came with a random iphone cable not usb c, and was dirty. I promptly returned and got my money back. I decided to just send back and order new. Be careful with the open boxs, only buy if you view in person.

The screen is very nice, can get very bright and color accurate. The controls are very comfortable, feels exactly like a dual sense controller. Works great as long as you have a good stable network connection. I am able to play at my friends house while my PS5 is at home on a wired network connection with no issues. I just got my pulse explore earbuds today and so far they are good so far.

It is an excellent device if family members often use a TV connected to a PS5. Runs the games installed on the PS5 via RemotePlay. There is no lag with PS5 connected with the cable to the router. Very light and ergonomic, I can play for 2-3 hours without fatigue lying on a couch or in bed. The only drawback is no Bluetooth connectivity, so either wired headphones or new PS earbuds.

it is many good and bad on this. you will definitely need stable internet on both ends, due to lag issues or connectivity. my PS5 is connected for best performance. please read up on youtube to be sure this is the purchase for you.

In my honest opinion, I felt PlayStation missed the mark a little bit…start off with the screen. It would’ve been amazing if it was a OLED screen and higher refresh rate, which will make playing online AAA games more enjoyable, hopefully the next gen will provide one. I wish I came with LTE option. it’s a bit a nuisance defaulting your PS5 settings i.e 1080p and other settings to accommodate the portal. Hopefully, the next update can take care of the annoying step. Overall, i feel that Playstion has a great idea and can make big improvements with the next version of the Portal. I will recommend it for those who would like to play games aside from their television gaming monitor. I was just saying don’t get your hopes up in terms of your expectations. as I stated earlier device but slightly missing the mark. Hopefully my review makes sense.

It’s a really cool device. The biggest problem is they’re still going to be an input delay in the matter what you’re playing because you’re streaming I have pretty good Internet and even still there was noticeable delay when playing games like Minecraft and call of duty.

Great remote player, have used PS remote play on my iPhone and the backbone device and was never satisfied with the gameplay. The PS portal has a great 8” screen and feels just like the PS controller. Took some getting used to but it’s my go to device when I’m away from the house. Plus pretty much twice the cost of a backbone it’s a great value.

This handheld is awesome! I love that they added the PS Cloud streaming however that requires you to have the premium subscription. If you are away from your PS5 often then this is perfect

Honestly I was skeptical and I wasn’t truly going to get one until Bestbuy had the option but I’m blown away by this thing. You can use it over any WiFi connection, I use it at a friends since we’re playing the same games and it’s been a life saver. If you can afford one and travel or just have a lot of people in the home this is absolutely a solid purchase.

Imagine you got kids, or young siblings or simply dont have access to your tv at that very instant and you pull out this PlayStation portal! You layback on yoir couch and slay away, while your kids watch pepa pig or your wife/gf watch selling sunset. Either way you’re gucci. The screen looks amazing? Havent had any problems with lag yet. Judge for yourself. Good lick getting one before christmas.

The product was good however I dislike how you can only play certain games and that the ps5 has to be on in order to play, overall handy to carry for trips
