Customer Ratings & Reviews

This product looks amazing and feels great in my hand It was easy to step up and use with in minutes. I love that i can enjoy my games while the family use the tv. I can play in my living room and then set up my potal to play while relaxing in my room. Love this product.

Love this!!! Beautiful screen. Great picture. Great connectivity. So happy I bought it!!!

I was skeptical at first to get this after reading reviews but i took a chance since I’m not always home so i wanted something on the go especially using any Wifi availableto me. And let me tell you its worth every penny. As long as both internet connections is good it runs so smoothly!! The picture quality is amazing the controller feedback is smooth the volume without headphones on is awesome and the battery life lasts a long time!! Also i got the warranty since if i ever have issues i can get it replaced but i would say this is so worth the price and to have if you want something portable!! 10/10

Excellent now that they added cloud service. Works great and moderately well on just cell phone hotspot

I’m very happy with this purchase. It works exactly as described and the quality feels solid and reliable. Setup/use was easy, and I’ve had no issues so far. Overall, it’s a great value for the price and I would definitely recommend it to others. I would buy this again.

It works well for me easy to hold. I recommend it if you want to play when someone is watching tv or using your tv for something else

I've had my Playstation portal for about 2 months now, and it is amazing with a few hiccups. The games look and run beautiful for the most part if you have a stable wifi connection but playing multi-player games is a bit awkward.

Since I bought this I havent put it down, especially if you have to share the tv.

The PlayStation Portal is one of the most underrated gaming devices Sony has released. It delivers a smooth, immersive PlayStation 5 experience without being tied to a TV, which is a game-changer for convenience and flexibility.

Love this project, it’s got great graphics and we love the size and capabilities. They only down side and the reason I didn’t give a 5 star rating is it seems to have trouble connecting and staying connected to the WiFi/PS5 at times.

I love using this when I can sit the couch with my wife and daughter. I will say battery life is not great and the connectivity can get a little laggy but it is still fun!

If you have a ps5, stable WiFi, and wanna play your games portably it works great. Some hiccups when my WiFi didn’t work as great

I was suprise how well it plays. While i remote play from my PS5 PRO or stream from the cloud is awesome especially when im coming home from a hard day at work. I get to play while laying in bed comfortable and get ready to sleep for my next shift.

Good for solo gaming on the movie, just ok for online experience but wrks

So I'll start off by saying this: I am not a dad. I don't have kids, but my girlfriend does spend a lot of time of YouTube. Sure, she could go to another room and has offered to do so, but I wanted to be able to play games on the couch in the same room as her while she watched whatever she wanted. A lot of people think the Portal is bad compared to something like the Steam Deck or any device capable of Remote Play. Long story short: For the price, you will not find a better device for playing your PS5 off of the TV screen. Sure, the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, or any number of other portable gaming PCs can do MORE, but they're also at least 2-3 times the cost. And when you look at something like the Backbone, the inclusion of an actual Dualsense and an 8" 1080p / 60Hz screen makes it an easy win for the Portal. So now, the cons: Even with a wired connection to the PS5 and my HDMI cable to in unplugged, there still can be some perceptible frame drops. I have fast internet but I also PC game so it's possible that I'm just more sensitive to dips in framerates. Also, don't buy this if your plan is to use it as a streaming device for anything but games. Apps like Netflix and pretty much anything from the "Media" tab will NOT stream to the Portal. Furthermore, if your PS5 goes into Rest Mode while a game is open the Portal will NOT be able to wake it from Rest Mode. You need to make sure everything is closed out before putting it into Rest Mode in order to wake it up with the Portal. If all that sounds okay to you, then I can highly recommend the PlayStation Portal! It's not too heavy, feels premium, and when you realize that a DualSense Edge controller is the same price, it doesn't sound bad. And as long as you have a good wi-fi connection, you can even play it away from home! Definitely pick one up to fill any gaps when your TV is in use.

I had heard a lot of bad things online about the portal and how it wasn’t workin properly like advertised but I was proven wrong because it works for me perfectly fine and is great with cloud streaming and playing my ps5 remotely

If u want your ps5 to go this is the best console to get i love playing anywhere i go all your games u can play it’s great to have highly recommended

I bought the portal sometime last year thinking it would be a good device to have and use while kids or wife watched whatever shows they wanted. For the most part for the it performed fine. Some connection issues at times. I tried playing online game like Helldivers or Fortnite but the lag was a bit to much for it to maintain a stable connection. Even trying to play single player games it would struggle. Now my set up may not be the best; the router and WiFi is on the first floor at one side of the house while i usually played on the portal upstairs on the other side. Fast forward to today with updates from Sony the connection is much more stable. I can play anywhere in my house, i even took it to my in laws which is a good 30ish miles away and had a great connection. And this is all with playing/streaming from what’s on my PS5. I haven’t tried the cloud gaming yet. So i totally recommend this device. It’s only gotten better and i can see Sony keeping it updated for a while.

Cloud Streaming update really made this thing, as long as you have Premium PS Plus, it’s a great addition to the PS5. If you have premium, you don’t even need a PS5, you could get away with just cloud streaming games.

Read the reviews and updates making this device a true portable. Great for my daughter away in college. At first it did not connect. Later to someone's advice I connect my PS5 to ethernet and it worked fine.
