    My Husband’s New Favorite “Third Wheel”

    I bought this for my husband, thinking it would keep him happy on days when he couldn’t hog the big TV mission accomplished! The PlayStation Portal is basically a magic mirror that beams the PS5 straight to his hands, letting him play in bed, on the couch, or while I’m watching my shows. Peace was restored in our marriage immediately. Setup was painless (even he figured it out without a YouTube tutorial), and the streaming quality is surprisingly smooth as long as you have good Wi-Fi. The controls feel almost exactly like a DualSense, which made the transition seamless. Downsides? Well, now he’s playing everywhere which means I occasionally have to fight for his attention, but that’s a small price to pay for a happy gamer husband. If you want to treat your gamer partner (and maybe even keep your TV to yourself), the PlayStation Portal is absolutely worth it. Just be warned: you might need to schedule your date nights around their remote gaming marathons! :)

    The graphics are stunning, easy to use, havent tried outside my home yet but this far its doing what i intended it for. It is a bit sensitive when playing shooter games but still pretty great device.

    I think that everyone who has a ps5 must get them a portal it’s cool to play on especially on the go or when you significant other is trying to watch a little bit of tv you won’t bother them and don’t forget to get it from Best Buy the number one place for electronics

    The PlayStation Portal is a good alternative to play PS5 games remotely with wireless connectivity. It’s sleek, simple to use, and ideal for players who want to game away from the TV—but it has some limitations. When playing GTA 5 online you do get some lagging but it’s not terrible.

    Stream games very smoothly without delays, but I do have 2gbps speed, so if you have 100 mbps or less, it might have a lot of lag.

    I love this device. I've had it since launch and it does exactly what I hoped it would plus more. I had my PS5 setup in my living room collecting dust and now I'm able to get some game time in without interrupting my kids. This device is heavily dependent on having a solid network infrastructure. If your PS5 is unable to be connected via ethernet, I would avoid buying this product. If you are using the router that your ISP provided you, I would avoid buying this product. Your internet speed has nothing to do with how well this will perform in your home. My setup: ISP - Verizon Speed - 1Gig Router - eero Pro 6E PS5 - Connected via Ethernet PS Portal - Connected to Wi-Fi on 5Ghz

    Gaming on the go can certainly make long journeys more enjoyable. A portable device offers a great source of entertainment for passengers. It helps pass the time and keeps boredom at bay during travel. Having access to games can also create a fun and relaxing atmosphere in the car. Such technology provides a welcome distraction from the monotony of the road.

    The only limitations which kept it from getting a 5 were: 1. It can only mirror one profile, the main one. I think forethought into that would have made the device a true Switch contender in a number of ways. 2. Wi-fi limitations. I understand needing high bandwidth but, unless you turn off the remote play option on the PS5, you can’t add additional WiFi options such as Hotspot. If you are elsewhere, it won’t even login to give you a chance to choose a separate WiFi or use the Hotspot. That will be a real problem for me when I want to use it when I travel overseas in August 2024.

    [Employee of bestbuy] Does exactly what I need it to do! Great picture quality and pretty good battery life. Great for single player games but I wouldn’t suggest for online gaming.

    I love my Playstation Portal. My main tv which I play my PS5 on and XSX was being used for Christmas movies. My Portal came in clutch. I played Gran Tourismo and Spider Man 2 flawlessly. I took my Portal to my detached garage to get away from my other half and it worked smoothly. If youre married this thing is a game changer. I even took it to the hospital while waiting for my grandson to arrive and it worked perfectly while using the hospitals wifi. Well worth the price. It plays and feels awesome. If i had to ding it..it would be the battery life. I want to say it lasted almost 2 hours. But, I'm just nit picking at this point.
