Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Portal is a great little device, even at home. Since mine arrived in early February, I’ve completed two long games because I can pick it up & play at any time. If I want to keep an eye on sports on the TV, I can still complete sidequests in big non-linear games. I can lay on the couch or in bed and play. If I go out of town for work, I can connect to hotel wifi and keep playing. Now there are caveats, of course. There is an expected and understandable lag which means it’s not ideal for something like, say, online fighting games. If your wifi signal is weak or goes out, you’ll also experience stuttering or a disconnect, though thankfully you won’t necessarily lose game progress unless your PS5 loses power as well. For me, I’ve found it invaluable in completing games like Yakuza that have loads of content, since I can play a little bit here and there without needing to be tethered to my big TV and AV setup. It’s never going to replace such a thing as the preferable way to play, but it makes a great companion. It’s even fairly comfortable to hold for long periods, since it’s just a screen wedged between a DualSense controller. The additional weight is noticeable, but I’ve spent 5-6 hours playing at a time and never felt any serious discomfort a little 5 minute break couldn’t fix.

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

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.

Love this product and it’s a great buy. Order 2 and love it

Sometimes I just want to lie in bed and play a game. Sometimes I want to play a game when my main TV is being used. For both cases, the portal is brilliant. I'm still shocked at the little amount of lag there is (tiny) and how good the screen looks. It's also lightweight and has good battery. I don't use it outside my house so it might be different in other scenarios.

If you have PSN premium this thing is all you need, you can play it like a backbone without your console running

I preordered (switched to shipping after in store pickup debacle) and have loved it since day 1. This product has a target audience in mind and I fit that bill. My console is in the family room and not always accessible to me. The Portal allows me to jump in to any game while my kids or wife are using the main tv. That’s it. That’s what this does. I can play when I want to play. The screen is crisp and looks great for an LCD screen. Single player games run extremely well with practically no input lag. If you play competitive FPS, there is a slight delay that may not yield the best experience. Initial setup was a breeze though I did get some connection issues when connecting to 2.4ghz. A little tinkering with my network settings and those issues were gone. Note, if you have multiple connected devices, it’s highly recommended to set up QoS or move low priority devices off the 5ghz band. I have used it outside of my house and it works just as well as if I were home. I have had multiple people connect to their consoles on my Portal and it’s just like signing in to the app and they were off to the races.

Great device. If you already have premium plus account, highly recommended.

It works great! Just connect to WiFi and I’m able to play the games in console back at home, this is great for kids on the go!

Had to return the first one due to being defective no connection possible to my PS5, neither Sony or Best buy troubleshooting could help. Returned for a replacement. Good to go now.

Great for playing most games over wifi but not so great playing higher AAA titles. The higher end games like cyberpunk 2077 have buffering issues but stray plays great

It’s been perfect on the go. I can use it at work and at home.

The best thing PlayStation has come out with!! Love the feeling of sitting on the couch and being comfortable and relaxed using it without having to sit in a chair in front of a screen!

The portal is great for my needs. I'm able to play without disrupting any tv time for anyone else. & the use of your PS SUBSCRIPTION is also available.

The sleek white design is visually appealing and fits seamlessly with other PlayStation gear. The setup is straightforward, allowing you to easily connect to your PS5 and start streaming your games in no time. The performance is impressive, with minimal lag and a smooth streaming experience that makes it feel like you're right in front of your console.

Playstation portal is great fun and easy to use. Works great with wifi.

Great Item, travel friendly and convenient to be used anywhere

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

Made my boyfriend extremely happy! Great for traveling, especially to see family. He used to take the whole console and now he can play all his favorites from far away. Pretty amazing!

Good product just needs internet to use it and also plus to get more benefits
