Unfortunately it was as “meh” of a product as I had imagined. Im not shocked to find so may similar disappointing reviews but I am surprised that there are so many positive ones. It’s just a screen for the ps5 gaming console, which is clear with any decent research. Still, my 10 year old and I gave it a shot. Super glitchy, didn’t matter what WiFi the portal was on or the ps5 itself. All WiFi test speeds good. Definitely finicky to set up the right connections at first to be able to turn on the ps5 remotely (chat gpt gave best guidance when working through a Linksys mesh node network that was blocking capability to talk to the base unit). After a week even my son agreed to send it back which says it all. Not a good product. Neat idea maybe kinda? But in execution it fails.

I purchased this PlayStation Portal with a bit of skepticism thinking that it was going to be just a waste of money and without any value. But I’m going to be honest. This is the best addition to my PS5 any should have. This is so easy to use that it requires no effort to connect to your console and start playing. The feel of the controller is just was of you were holding the controller and the screen is so big that it is just perfect. I do have issues with conectivity when I’m outside of my home but the is also because of the internet I connect to. When connected to a reliable internet, the games are flawless just like if you were playing directly from the console. Another perk about this that I love is that when my wife wants to watch tv I can grab my Portal and play while she is watching tab. No more being upset of not being able to watch tv while I’m playing. At the end of the day. Yes this is a remote play like if it was from your phone but the feel is so much better. Thank you Sony for such a device. You can’t go wrong buying this.

Far exceeding expectations. Screen is gorgeous, controllers are comfortable. And freedom to play without any significant lag delay is really impressive.

This thing gets used daily. Obviously can’t compare to sitting in front of a larger TV but it’s great if lounging on the couch, killing some time. We’ve taken it on vacation using remote connection. We have found this works well for the most part though games that require instant response may/may not have a seamless experience due to some network lag.

This might be the peak example of a frivolous accessory and I’d say it’s not worth trying one of these without a really strong internet connection to your PS5 (truly, either wire it with an Ethernet cord or have a router right next to it). The lack of a dedicated touchpad also takes a little getting used to (you just tap the screen to pull up one.) That all said, the screen is like stunning sometimes how good it looks. I also think the DualShock 5 is maybe the best controller in gaming so even though the actual design of this is wacky it feels great to play.
