Its a powerful device but it could do more in my opinion it needs more portal capabilities make it fully portal with a opinion to screen share and its a 5 star

Wow, cloud gaming is the future! I am so bought in as I can just pick a game on start on the fly. Great for busy professionals who just want to get lost on a quick game.

Picked it up on a whim. It’s fun to play especially when you have good WiFi connection & when your PS5 is hardwired by Ethernet cable. Best with single player games because if the small input lag, but it’s hardly noticeable.

Absolutely love it. Do not regret it at all. I didn’t think much of it at first until I got it. I was blown away.

This works great, love the design and love to do cloud gaming without tv

Portal is a great purchase if you want to still play in your house or if you have a lot of free time in another place that is not your house, the wifi only system is a bit of a bummer, but besides that, it is exactly what you want for mobile gaming.

Even tho this is not an OLED display it really give you a good quality. This screen is very bright, handheld is lightweight and easy to carry perfect to play on the go. 4 starts because sometimes just disconnects from PS5 for no reason which makes you go back and reconnect.

So far its been good. Some connection issues, but works well.

Bought this for my father as a Christmas gift! Easy to set up and now doesn’t require having a PS5! Still need a PlayStation subscription but it’s really easy sign in and start playing!

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.

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.

It’s an okay experience and works well with streaming but doesn’t always connect to hotel WiFi’s

Awesome for playing PS5 anywhere in the house. Big bright screen and DualSense controls feel legit. If you already own a PS5, this is pure convenience and comfort.

I purchased and open box playation portal. The device was in great condition. There was a big of food or something that looked like tomato sauce on one of the handles, but other than that no issues. I save almost $70 dollars by buying it open box.

Its real good even if not all the are games available and the best part, you dont need to buy a ps5 you can still play

Fantastic device perfect for traveling or if you want to relax in bed and still game

At first I was skeptical due to the Portal being cloud streaming only, however I’ve been thoroughly pleased with my purchase. I do want to add that I have a stable and high speed fiber connection, so your experience may differ from mine. Also if you’re on a network with lots of pull on your WiFi bandwith, I would use a second router attached to your ISP modem via Ethernet to give the PlayStation Portal first priority. It doesn’t take long at all to pair to my PS5, and the quality of my game streaming is excellent. Hardly any input lag for me and almost identical to native gaming.

Sometimes I love this thing sometimes I want to throw it across the room. This is not your old psp. The new streaming options are great. Do not recommend for games that require precise timing like 2k or call of duty.

So far so good! I haven’t tried it away from home yet so that’s the only thing keeping me from giving it a perfect score but so far it’s been staying connected and the graphics are great.

It’s not Bad, it could b muuuuuuch better, but Sony being Sony. I loses connection , but the touch screen and private experience is nice, it could b cheaper since Sony is raising membership like crazy. I give 6 out 10.
