    I like the Idea of this thing, works for what I want it to do which is to play my games when the tv is being used by my nieces. The connection is spotty when in the same room but ok when near the system. Next time I would have just bought another tv.

    Yes, I had to purchase a wifi extender and ran a Ethernet cable to my PS5. So, when youre gettign the Portal be mindful that you might need to spend more for a really nice experience. But let me tell you, its all worthy. The image quality is preetty nice. I have a 300Mbps Wifi and it runs perfectly my Portal

    It works great, even when out of the house with good Wi-fi and the PS5 connected by ethernet. PS5 must be left on rest mode.

    Excellent little device. Love having the ability to play my games remotely and even away from home! A huge update has made this even better. With a PlayStation Premium account you can stream cloud gaming!

    Great little game system. I love the idea of playing a game without waking up one , or gaming a game and watching a movie at the same time on same Television. Very cool and easy to use.

    A very enjoyable addition to your PS5 ecosystem. The quality and ease of use could not be matched. As you may have seen, it does not work with Bluetooth, only Sony’s proprietary headphones. There is a 3.5mm jack, however and the speakers are good enough. Overall, still a great option if your TV use is limited when sharing with family members.

    Bought this for my son. He loves it. Only thing wasnt a fan of is that you have to put your playstation on sleep mode before using it. Can't be used simultaneously.

    Its definitely not for everyone and it shouldn't be a replacement for your controller and monitor but the portal lands in between when you find yourself needing to be in a different room or when your are away from your ps5 and you still want to grind out a couple of hours of gaming. It works perfectly for me i get little to no input lag with meh internet

    Booting up the device and shutting it down is a bit clunky and my playstation shows that the controller is always fully charged, even when it is nearly dead. Gameplay is good, but it does occasionally lag and drop framerate. Not a replacement for a tv, but it means tou can use the playstation when the tv is otherwise being utilized.

    Was a gift. Was a little difficult to get connected and has to have a strong wifi for it to work well. It has worked great since we were able to connect it to home wifi and the PS5.

    This was purchased as a gift and this review is based on the recipients' comments. He said it's the most comfortable handheld gaming device he has ever owned (and I have bought all of them for him over the years) He likes the screen size. He said its very nice.

    Portal being at the same price as the edge controller outshines and out beats that in my opinion. Having feedback, the remote play screen in my hands has given me a new way to use my PS5 more. The screen, sounds and everything is great and well worth its price piint over many other accessories
