Now that you can stream playStation games without the need of a PlayStation, this handheld opens up an entire world of Gaming. The ergonomics are great and the screen is vivid and bright. I would definitely recommend this if you have a PlayStation account.

Best thing PlayStation has ever done! The fact that you can play online, play games from PlayStation plus and it mimic the actual PS5… I recommend everyone that’s a PlayStation fan to buy one

My grandson loved the game he got really exited when i got home with it. He plays the game after he gets from school but first he needs to finish he's homework and then he can play the game for only 2 hr.And he is very happy after he plays the game connected to the PS5. And i'm happy also to se my grandson happy as well. I thank Best Buy for my grandson happiness. Tks. Robert Sanchez

If you have a PS5, go for it! It’s awesome. If you don’t and are interested in it due to the ability to stream games from the cloud without a Ps5, just know it’s only their curated catalogue of games similar to GamePass with an upper end PSN subscription, except the games suck a lot more with mostly ancient niche titles.

It’s great when you have strong ping and router! Economics feels great as well! The speaker is great as well! The screen is great! Everything about it is great!

Bought this item for my sister on Christmas and not only it came on time and she loves it as well. Def trusting Best Buy to buy my stuff due to the accuracy of delivery information. Thank you

This is a great buy! I’m able to travel and play. It’s a little different than actually playing but still SO fun and worth it. Gotta have streaming pass to have the full experience. Hope you get to enjoy like I did!

This made a big difference for me whenever i housesit. I dont need to pack up my ps5 amymoreand can just bring the portal along. I was impressed by how good the display looks.

I thoroughly enjoy using the PlayStation Portal. I bought it to be able to play while my wife and son watch TV in our living room. Single player games seem to be fine, a little bit of input lag in MLB the show when pitching and swinging. I have not tried FPS games yet. This may not be the best option for competitive games, but if you want to get a gaming session in and you're trying not to always alienate yourself from your family. This is a great option.

Best prchase ever, speciallt now with all the updates, its all good, working no issue even after a year

I’ve really enjoyed the Portal thus far. I had to really be on point when trying to purchase the last couple months with people scalping the hell out of them which is unfortunate for those who are truly interested. Here are my pros and cons: Pros: Portability - not the smallest device but it’s small enough to serve as something you can bring anywhere Comfort - Dual Sense is one of the best parts of this build. It looks weird, I will not deny that. But it’s so practical you wonder why others haven’t done this. Screen size is about perfect. Quality is what you’d expect from Sony. Brightness is VERY bright and the color saturation is good. Speakers are actually pretty good for a portable. Louder than I had expected I have not experienced any issues with packet loss while playing on my home network. I don’t have anything special for wireless. Cons: The lack of first party accessories. I know Sony came out and listed this as more of an experimental product, but I’m a little surprised they didn’t take advantage of providing 1st party accessories. The stuff on Amazon is fine and works (cases and screen protectors), but it would have been nice to have from Sony. Cost for some may steer them to the backbone.. and although the backbone is a fine product, it doesn’t compare to this for the overall experience. And you don’t have to give up your phone. Overall for what Sony advertises this product as, it fits the bill perfectly. I don’t think it’s for everyone. People who don’t have a dedicated gaming space like me and often times are splitting the tv amongst your family, this is the closest you can get to perfect. Highly recommended.. until the Vita 2 comes out. One can hope!

The product arrived quickly and in good condition. Worked well out of the box.

I bought this amazing device with Great quality..!!! And super fun to entrain kids.

It was tge perfect gift for my daughter. She actually said it was her #1 gift that she wanted. Guess what!? It was! It is such a great pleasure to watch her play EVERYWHERE!!!

Love the ability to use it anywhere. Only problem is some connection stability issues depending on your home WiFi strength. Also wish there’s more options for cloud gaming.

Love this product. Does exactly what it says and is reliable and great quality

This device is perfect for Dads or people with a partner. I find that this device solves a very particular but very real problem. Let’s say you want to use your PS5 but the TV is being used by someone else: your partner, kids, in-laws etc. You could theoretically put a tv in another room and play your PS5 there. Maybe even in your office if you have one. Well think again pal, god-forbid you’re not in the living room with any of the aforementioned people as the TV blares another episode of Bake Off or 90 day fiance. All you wanna do is play Diablo IV, or Monster Hunter, or Spider-Man 2 but you can’t hog the TV for your silly little video games when you could be enjoying every one else’s company. Even on nights where its just you and one other person, your presence on the couch is more important than the sweet sweet loot you could be getting in your preferred digital world. Well if any of that sounds like you, wallow no more. The PSP lets you enjoy all that your PS5 offers without having to sacrifice your presence in the family room. Now instead of hearing, “Why dont you spend more time with us?” or “I don’t care what we watch, as long as you’re here.” Prepare yourself for “Hey, are you listening?”, “Hey can you pause that?”, and my new favorite, “could you turn it down a bit?” No longer am I staying up late to play games only to wake up a few hours later in a groggy nightmarish state. No longer am i sacrificing quality hang-out time in the living room worh everyone in my life. No longer am i the seemingly antisocial gamer that society perceives me to be. I can finally be with the people i love all while playing my playstation games and not feel bad about it! My only complaint is that it occasionally drops frames and i have an ideal internet set up. Otherwise, its a near daily use for me. It’s convenient, light, and fun to use.

I never get to play my ps5 due to adulting. After getting ps portal I have already logged 90 hours on expedition 33. It is perfect device for a busy person that still wants to game.

Streaming issues are there even with decent Internet. I love the ergonomics and controls if the system. Being a streaming system hurts it. I've had worse play remote playing my ps5 as compared to the ps plus streaming beta. If you don't have the Internet didn't buy this. I currently have spectrum and still stutters and disconnects.

Best purchase ever. It works as a stand alone, he takes it to work with him daily to use. Good battery life super sleek and light weight.
