Customer Ratings & Reviews

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 love the idea for this! Streaming from your ps5 while using the tv for something else? Count me in. But it can be a bit laggy and have some issues depending HEAVILY on wifi. I have great wifi and i even still get some lagging. Recommended, but dont expect a handheld ps5. Its good for what it is. I think a lot of people were expecting ps5 performance and high speed/ high frame rates. Its fine for what it is!

Its just a handheld controller with a screen it does everything you would expect has good visuals and pretty solid frame rate when on a good wifi it’s basically just a switch in handheld mode. But when on iffy wifi it doesn’t work great it has bad visuals lokking very blurry and the lag is rough haven’t tried it out of the house to see how long connections work for it but if you have bad wifi it will not work well so if thats your situation then definitely should pass on this one.

Good product if you don't have a dedicated TV to play games on. Streaming is ok, but streams from PS5 box - I am not yet able to get games to stream otherwise.

It was ok. Enjoyed playing it didn’t like the fact that I had to have my PlayStation on to play it but other than that it was ok

Excellent product, connection can be spotty if using separate wifi networks, make sure both of them are at least 100 mbps, even then there might be some lag during gameplay. But the screen is amazing and the controller is literally the same as the ps5 dualsense.

Love the way the device feels in the hands. Picture quality is great with minimal lag. Internet is the key, so make sure that is up to par, and its smooth sailing. Some occasional slow connections but not very common.

In despite of all tech reviewers, this is a surprisingly good idea from Sony. By capturing the basic need of anyone who owns a PS5 and can barely play on it because you as an owner insists to show it off in the living room. Well, problem solved! It feels like a tied sale, but what the heck? I can now play my PS5 with a fair quality and great ergonomics from the comfort of my toilet. A pity it can’t connect to PS4

I got this for my husband and he loves this thing. He’s currently traveling and travels often for work and has been able to use this when he has a little bit of time to unwind and relax. It connects super easy to his PS five at home.

Great screen, smooth controls, and perfect for playing PS5 anywhere at home. Comfortable to hold and works really well.

It works just as expected. We are able to play on the go.

Great product I highly recommend just budget in a high quality WiFi hotspot if your using your ps portal away from home so it doesn’t lag bad an then you will be golden an can enjoy a great gaming experience!

Product is in excellent quality. My son really loves it. as a gift for his birthday

I bought the PlayStation Portal thinking multiple people could use the PlayStation at the same time. I later found out that only one person can use the PS5 if you are streaming directly from it, which I should have researched before buying. The Portal can still be used if you have a PlayStation Plus Premium membership, since it allows you to stream games directly from the cloud without connecting to your PS5. But for that, you need a strong and stable internet connection, otherwise the experience is frustrating. Even though I had more than a decent internet connection, I experienced lower fps, reduced resolution, and constant lagging. On the positive side, the ergonomics are excellent and the Portal is relatively affordable compared to other handheld gaming devices. I ended up returning mine because I could not play the games I already owned, which was the main reason I bought it, and the cloud gaming option never provided a smooth or reliable experience.

Awesome device! Great for playing remotely as long as your main console is connected by Ethernet. WiFi can make difficult..

It’s neat. Really wish it could be used offline too. Adding the streaming option is nice so long as you got decent internet. The joy sticks are too loose.

Love it, great for gaming, light weight, easy to game for someone with smaller hands or a kid. amazing display. just remember, you have to have a PS5 to use it!

build quality is great so is the screen but definitely make sure you have good internet if you plan on streaming from your PS5

With the new updates this item is a dream. Can play anywhere with WiFi connection. Just need to upgrade my cloud service so that I can really unlock the full potential.

I purchased this for my son for Christmas and he absolutely loves it. Definitely a 10/10 I would recommend this product
