If you have the use case the Portal is amazing. I have a shared living room TV so the Portal has been an amazing addition to my gaming setup. Would have given it a 5 but there’s some minor issues. First Sony doesn’t want you to use any headphones but there’s and connecting other products is a hassle. Second, if you have multiple users you have to sign out of the portal and sign in as the other users. It’s not an easy transition like it is on the console. Some of these issues could be patched and the future and then it would be the perfect remote player.

I searched high and low for the portal for my husband. He LOVES it. He refers to it as the “dad station.” It is a bit large but he doesn’t mind. He enjoys being able to play his PS5 in any room as opposed to the basement.

Great idea, but its a bit unreliable. Your connection speeds need to be excellent fof ghis to work. Reslly need your playstation at home to be hardwired to the internet, wifi in most cases will not work. We had to return it due to unreliable connection

It works, I got this so I wouldn’t monopolize the TV, but I don’t really use it as much. It works and flawlessly too, but I am not happy I spent the money. Unless you constantly need to game, it’s a frivolous expense

My only qualm with this device is it should work smoothly right out of the box without having to go through tons of tweaks. The initial impression while setting up this device was really bad. Couldn't get the timezone correctly even though connected to wifi+internet. Had to manually adjust the time and date to get through. Then there were some additional tweaks needed to actually get it connected to PS5. Then comes the lag part, for which needed to bit of googling to figure all the adjustments to get rid of lags and then finally you could get to the good part. Excellent ergonomics, beautiful screen. Gameplay is enjoyable. There is still a bit of lag particularly when you need swift and precise movements. I am hoping that such things would be fixed in the future versions of the device updates. I would definitely recommend if you have PS5 and not able to get hold of the TV screen for whatever reasons.
