Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this item so when my girlfriend wanted to watch TV I could still play my PS5. It works great! Has an easy setup and graphics look amazing. So far I've only played two games on it. Connections are basically having your Ps5 on and then you can change your channel to something else. It's basically another controller with a screen in the middle. I wish it was more portable like the Asus rog ally x or one of the other handheld gaming systems. But this works for my situation. Hope this helps! Thanks.

The PS Portal is an excellent product that exceeded my expectations. It is made with premium materials and feels very solid and durable in the hands. The battery life is quite reasonable for its performance, lasting long enough for extended gaming sessions. As long as you have a strong and stable internet connection, the PS Portal functions smoothly and provides an impressive remote play experience. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this purchase and would definitely recommend it to any PlayStation owner looking for a high-quality way to play on the go.

This PlayStation portal is awesome. It is exactly what my husband wanted. He wanted something he could play his ps5 on even away from home, he originally got a backbone for his phone from another place, but it would not work very great. Then when he saw this at best buy I got it for him for Christmas and he said it works great! He can play it anywhere with wifi or a hotspot and the quality on the device is perfect. Even I have started to enjoy it as well. Highly recommend!

I saw a bunch of reviews talking about the wifi connectivity, but i have not had an issue. I run a google mesh system and as long as i am not actively walking around the house, i haven’t had the issues i was warned about. Battery life is great, about three hours of continuous play on Gran Turismo. The only issue that I’ve encountered is that you cant run two of these from one system (the PlayStation it is attached to has to be on the wifi network). But the kid can play xbox while im playing PlayStation. No worries.

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

Portable play no dislikes wish tge latency could be fixed

Very good i can take it eith me anywhere i go and rins pretty smooth

This was the remote play experience that I have been wanting. I have zero issues with lag or poor stream quality. Sure you can use your phone/tablet or PC to remote play but this is far more convenient for me. I can simply pick it up and start playing. The battery life is decent and about the same as a dualsense controller. The screen is bright and looks crisp. I was pleasantly surprised with the audio as well. I agree, this device isnt for everyone. But for me its perfect.

The PS5 Portal Black Edition is honestly pretty awesome if you already own a PlayStation 5 and want to play anywhere in the house without hogging the TV. It’s not a full-on handheld like a Switch, but it does what it’s made for really well.

When using remote play, single player games work fantastic. No input lag or delays even when playing games several hundred miles from my ps5 as long as you have a fairly decent internet connection. There is input lag when playing online games, but that is to be expected. Cloud streaming is a great deal, especially since you don’t actually need a ps5 for that!

Very convenient way to stream from your ps5. This device allows me to play late and not wake up the wife and kids. A PS5 console is required to use this device and console must be in rest mode to turn on from the portal. The main gripe I have about the device is my hands cramp up from holding the portal after minimal game time, but I do not experience this holding the Dualsense. Also, the resolution is not as clean as playing from the actual console. This is expected since you are streaming from the console, but makes me wish I was playing on the TV instead for better graphical quality. All in all it is a very handy device and glad I made the purchase so I can stay up later to play BG3 with the bois.

I recently bought a console, but I travel for work and was disappointed that I wouldn’t get to use my console at home much. I was on the fence about this until the newest update came out for cloud streaming. This portal is AMAZING. The only downfall is having to pay for the PlayStation plus premium if you want to use it on the go and not have to worry about your console at home being in rest mode. I do love the fact that I can be using the portal and the console at the same time, as long as two accounts are being used.

Best investment if you’re sharing a TV with family or not wanting to keep roommates up with the tv screen. Movers picked up all my stuff so currently using it as a standalone which is pretty nice with the selections available from the PS Plus subscription. But definitely prefer it with the PS5. The downside I feel is not having Bluetooth capabilities which maybe explains the price point. You can’t pair your gaming headphones with it even with an adapter. So if you’re wanting to have a reason to get the matching headset then sure.

I picked up the PlayStation Portal for myself after realizing the TV in my house is permanently claimed by my three kids. This thing has been a lifesaver. Setup was quick, and once it synced to my PS5, I was gaming from the couch, the backyard, or wherever I could grab a little peace and quiet. The screen looks great, the controls feel just like the DualSense, and it’s surprisingly comfortable to use for long sessions. Every now and then, it’ll lose connection to the PS5 or the image will get a bit pixelated, but it always reconnects quickly and keeps going strong. If you’ve got a full house and still want to squeeze in some gaming time without fighting over the TV, this little device is a game-changer.

Best purchase in a while. So happy with how good it works and the big screen.

Wasnt sure about getting it after seeing reviews and used ones for sale. Peole have the wrong idea about how these works! It is not a game system by itself, it is just remote play and BETA cloud streaming! Plenty games to choose from on the beta to keep you entertained. Great for gaming away from home, at home, work, anywhere!

Honestly thought this was going to suck and i was going to return it after a day. Well I'm not ever returning it. If you have a good internet connection and ps pro it works amazing. Super impressed with this accessory to the PS

I bought this device for my significant other and he loves it! It connects seamlessly with our home console for on the go use and has good audio quality. The traditional controller buttons make this device familiar and easy to use. The device does feel fragile when not in use. so we did find a great carrying case and screen protector for some added protection. Great buy!

This is a great addition to having a PS5. Streaming could service games as well direct from hardware works without a hitch. Have used in variety of internet scenarios, home/hotel/cell hotspot, without any major issues. Its great to play in places other then in front of the TV. Patio, travel, etc.

I was honestly surprised by how smooth and responsive the PS5 Portal is. The display is crisp, controls feel just like the DualSense, and the setup was super simple. As long as you have a strong Wi-Fi connection, this thing runs flawlessly. I can keep gaming even when the TV is in use, and it’s perfect for relaxing on the couch or playing in bed. Definitely worth it if you’re deep in the PlayStation ecosystem.
