Customer Ratings & Reviews

I hate this device this the worst $200 I ever spend this thing really worthless no matter how strong your WiFi connection it will lose connection frequently it’s barely playable it lags very bad I see why there so many peoples try to sell this price of junk on Facebook market we was had. By Sony you can’t do anything with this device can’t play games without being in the same room as the ps5 what’s the point can’t watch YouTube or nothing cans store games on it can’t connect third part headphones this a miss save your money please don’t buy

I travel a lot for work and use a personal hotspot for it. It lags a lot and the picture isn’t the best and disconnects from the PS5. It’s a great concept, I wish it could be better.

I am torn giving it 1 star. I just feel it deserves that. I went wired connection ps5. I honestly think I had a good connection as well. It is just not good. I was very hopeful. Controls were great! Screen really pops on cut scenes. It works with disc in PS5. Its just the gameplay is where it suffers big in my opinion which is the main point. The motion blur gave me a headache. Lag in Mortal Kombat made it hard to tether moves. I do feel some games would be fine on here. I just don't want to limit what games I can play on this. I tried a handful of other games with same results. Will be returning, instead of jacking up the price and selling on the marketplace.

This product arrived with the seals torn and box clearly already opened. Best buy refused to give a discount on this open box item and instead advised me to return it. I have 10 more days to return it and there is no stock kn stores to exchange it with and best buy was not able to reserve me one to swap with the used one they sent me. Absolutely ridiculous. 5 stars as I recommend this product but I don't recommend buying anything from Best buy, get it anywhere else if you can.

Sadly it is extremely inconsistent , it’s comply updated, i have 1GB internet and is just choppey. Disconnects constantly and just does not work as I was hoping it would . 

I waited quite a while for this release and it was a birthday gift to myself, but sadly I was disappointed. I had to return mine after the 2nd use. It won't turn on and it would not charge. I tried reaching out to Sony but never got a hold of any—queued 160th person in line. Also, I don't like the fact that my PS needs to be on, just so I can play (via wifi). So yeah, as much as a big PS fan. I need to pass on this one. Nothing beats playing on a 77" OLED TV.

I got the PlayStation Portable (PSP) for my son, and it’s been a fantastic purchase. It’s compact, easy to carry around, and perfect for gaming on the go. The graphics are surprisingly good for a handheld system, and the gameplay is smooth. He’s been enjoying classic PlayStation titles, racing games, and even watching movies on it. The battery life is decent, and we love that it can also connect to Wi-Fi for certain games and updates. It’s also great that it supports memory cards so he can store his favorite games and progress without worry. As a parent, I appreciate the durable design and the wide range of age-appropriate games available. It’s been a great way for him to enjoy entertainment responsibly, and it’s something we even play together sometimes. Definitely recommend it for kids who love gaming, especially if you’re looking for a reliable, affordable portable system.

I am disappointed that you can't play 1 person shooting games or certain games for that matter. This remote player is a waste. PSP I'm waiting for now. I rather be able to travel with my system handheld then carrying the whole system plus the remote portal.

Unfortunately not worth the $216.49 system has horrible connection issues. Hopefully PlayStation releases an update to fix this issue till then id recommend waiting 2-3 months before purchasing item. Also can ONLY be played if you OWN a playstation 5 so id recommend just saving up & purchasing the PS5 instead.

Can’t be used unless your ps5 is on , can’t be used outside even if p5 is on. Can’t be used if on different WiFi from ps5. It’s literally just a controller with a screen.

Horrible, who ships an electronic device in a bag?

The PlayStation Portal is a great device when it’s working as intended — the screen is bright, the controls are responsive, and when I’m close to my router, the performance is smooth and lag-free. However, it can be a bit finicky with interference, sometimes struggling to connect to my PS5 or wake it up right away. A quick restart usually fixes the issue, but it’s an occasional annoyance. Overall, I really like it, though for the price, Sony should include at least a year of their highest PlayStation Plus tier since that’s what unlocks the full streaming potential.

Works well, easy to use throughout house and places with good Internet. But if you have a slower plan or a lot of items on your wifi it suffers. Comfortable to use and great picture (when you have good connection).

AWESOME OVERALL PERFORMANCE. HIGH QUALITY SCREEN. AWESOME PORTABILITY.

The PlayStation Portal delivers exactly what it promises: a premium way to stream PS5 games around the house. The large, vibrant display looks fantastic, and the controls feel just like the DualSense—no compromises there. Build quality is excellent, and it’s obvious Sony designed this as a top-tier accessory. It doesn’t run games on its own. For me, that’s fine—95% of the time I’m gaming at home anyway. I have fiber internet and just the standard AT&T router, and I’m able to play anywhere in my house with little to no issues. The experience is smooth most of the time, though you will notice some lag. Competitive shooters and battle royales don’t really work here, but single-player titles and slower-paced games feel great. Even Destiny 2 is playable, though not ideal. The value is what makes the Portal stand out. It’s far cheaper than a handheld PC or gaming console, and for most of what I like to play, it works really well. As a busy parent, it’s given me more chances to actually enjoy my PS5 library without fighting over the TV. The PlayStation Portal isn’t for every situation, but if you understand its limits and have solid internet, it’s an excellent way to extend your console.

If you have access to a fast, reliable internet connection, then the PlayStation Portal will work awesome for you. I love the Midnight Black finish and the ability to not hog the main tv at night, but still enjoy my Playstation. I have been quite impressed and the battery life is better than i expected.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) #SonyPortableRemotePlayer #PlayStation #GamingOnTheGo #RemotePlay #ProductReview

Easy to connect to our PS5 and works exactly as intended. I don’t mind that we can’t take it out of the house because it’s meant to be used when our toddler wants to watch something else on the TV. Screen quality is good, no latency issues with the controls and the battery actually goes on for a while. Would definitely recommend.

Since purchasing my PS Portal, they have only made it better! Cloud streaming has made this a handheld anyone with or with or without PlayStation should buy. All you need is a PlayStation account and a yearning to play games on the go!

Probably one of my favorite pieces of tech. Being able to play when I travel or somebody else’s occupying that TV I can still play my game and not watch love is blind. Definitely with all the updates that they continuously push.
