Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really enjoy playing on this device. I van play anywhere with my friends. I like it because I can take it anywhere I go.

Let me start off by saying that the portal in concept is awesome, but in my time with it i foujd that it did not live up to what i expected. I know this is technically a streaming device only and nothing gets played on the portal natively but i feel like i should not have had the experience i had with it with the internet speeds i have. I see people posting YouTube videos saying they can technically play the device anywhere as long as they have Wifi which definitely did not work for me. I brought it to a friends house and never connected to my ps5 that was in rest mode at home. And even my experience at home was not great i had to go in change a bunch of settings in my portal and my router settings to make it work just a little bit better. Even with what i looked up and changed it still wasnt the greatest experience. Sooo anyways when it works its mind blowing to play God of War on a handheld at 60fps buuut in most case the connection was so bad i would get disconnected mutliple times in a session when i was in the room NEXT to my router, didnt even work downstairs for me. So if you want something you can just turn on and play without having to think then this is probably not for you. I am returning mine after some weeks and opting to get the steam deck instead.

I'm happy with My Playstation Portal is the best purchase I make is Best of Best from Sony Playstation 5 companion Controller Handheld is Best Handheld for Travel to other city or State

Firstly, the Playstation Portal isn't going to be for everybody. It's going to see the most use in situations where there are more than one person using a the television the PS5 is hooked up to. Secondly, the Portal performs best on a wifi network with a good, strong signal and nice high speeds. I have tested the Portal extensively while using my phone as a hotspot, and it works well enough to play something that isn't going to require a fast reaction time. As for the performance of the Portal and my own personal experience, I just couldn't be happier! I mostly use my Portal at home while my wife is using the television to play her Switch. Also when I'm relaxing in bed, that is an excellent time for the Portal to shine. The graphical fidelity is beautiful, great range of color on display, images comes through nice and sharp. Response time for the controls is almost without any lag at all, making gaming on this little gem a wonderful experience. Sound from the Portal is about what you'd expect from a portable device, it good enough. I picked up the Pulse Elite headset just to use with the Portal, glad I did. The Pulse Elite connects to the Portal without any dongles or extra hardware or anything, and it makes the audio experience VERY worth the price of the headset. If you get a Portal, get the Pulse Elite headset to go with it! Finally, the Playstation Portal is comfortable to use. It seemed like it was going to be a bit large at first, but after extended use I've found I can play for hours without any issues. Keep in mind this is on my home wifi network, which has very strong signal and very high speed. Even on my phone's hotspot, the Portal works well enough to play a lot of games, but I highly recommend using it on a good fast wifi.

This thing is AMAZING! Time flies by when you’re having fun and this has been the cause of it! All those who says this is a waste of money get out of here! I’m glad I purchased this!

Item is very interesting I enjoyed using I recommend.

I've always wanted one but never thought of it's usefulness. With family coming over for the holidays and being told I have to "get out of my cave" (hahaha my room) I can have this out, be around people, and play on my PS5 without being in my bedroom.

I enjoy it it works great and I love it really happy I went to Best Buy, the greatest store of all time and the greatest electronic store of all time, and it has the greatest name of all time.

This was this was gift for my kid. He really loved it. It is awesome and he really enjoyed it and now Sonny just released an update that allows you when you are Sony PlayStation plus member you can play your game that you purchased online for free no need to have even PS5, which is great.

Great for on the go gaming, as long as your PS5 is on! You can also play it without a PS5 if you subscribe to PS Plus Premium (or whatever that tier is). Beautiful quality screen.

Awesome portal gameingconsole. Sony has created a great protable gaming console that i can take anywhere.

It’s a great streaming device runs really well had no hiccups of any kind.

Absolutely love my portal. With a stable connection you rarely get any lag Set it up with my phones hot spot and I can game anywhere

Easy to get set up and fun to play around the house. Really slick looking, too, and feels great in hand. There were a few times connectivity wasn't great but that can be a few factors.

Used this a lot working the night shift away from home. If you love gaming and still always spend most of your time away from home then this is a must get.

If you have a lot of ps games its worth it, only thing is its got to be connected to wifi all the time

Allows me to continue playing my games, even when someone else is using my television. Super clear display.

Initial opinion: Great clarity, onscreen setup was relatively simple, decent battery life (can also plug-in/charge while playing), good sound quality (has 3.5mm headphone jack, but haven't tried using USB-C to see if that works too), D-pad is replaced with a button on left side. I couldn't find a charging indicator/status light anywhere when I plugged it back in which I thought was odd. After playing a few hours on it, the only downside I found so far is that at times it does lag, freeze, get grainy and that was on the same home WiFi network with the PS5 in the next room. My router is a Netgear AX1800 and both the console/Portal were within 20 feet of the router. Since this isn't an issue of lack of bandwidth, it must be the Portal itself, especially since others have reported the same issue. However, it's nice to be able to play while someone else is watching TV. I was playing a downloaded game and haven't tried it with a physical disc game yet, but the lag may not be tolerable in the middle of an action scene/battle.

I got this PS as a gift for my little brother, and he absolutely loved it. It’s a great option if you have more than one child—one can play on the ps while the other uses the TV. Perfect for keeping everyone happy and entertained.

I love this model, it's very practical and ergonomic. The screen size is perfect for not missing any details.
