    This thing is great. I have kids so they are most of the time watching movies or playing their own games. With the portal I can just let my kids do their own thing and be able to play some games while in bed or on the couch. Sometimes even at work.

    It’s the only way I play my game now. I was a little skeptical because what people said online but I love this thing. I play my ps5 way more now that I have it. As long as you have a decent connection you don’t really have anything to worry about. The only downside I see from people that is legitimate is the lack of a web browser so if you’re traveling and need to connect to hotel WiFi or any public WiFi it probably isn’t gonna work. Other than that it’s definitely worth the $200 price tag.

    I like it but I would like a version that was handheld and didn’t rely on the ps5 being on to use

    It works well as long as you have very stable and consistent WiFi at both where your ps5 is and where you are trying to use the portal it works great. As a second screen around the house definitely works well. However when you try to use it as a travel platform to play away from home it decent perform as well. It often cannot hook up to hotel WiFi if they have a log in screen and has connection problems often in my experience

    I was a little worried about buying the portal but it turned out to be an amazing purchase. i gave it a 4 star score because though it is amazing playing games like call of duty is not that good. Playing Rpg games such as Diablo 4 (which i have been playing and loving)or final fantasy 7 something that is not heavy on competitive gaming it is definitely worth the purchase. if only PlayStation would use this same design for a new PlayStation standalone handheld console. i would buy it in a second

    Portal Must Have!

    The PlayStation Portal is a must have! I love this device. It makes it easy for me to play my PlayStation in bed while my wife watches something on the TV. One thing to note is that if you’re experiencing lag, make sure your PS5 is hardwired into your network. Once I did that all lag I experienced was gone. I was even experiencing lag standing next to my PS5 while getting 500+ Mbps wirelessly. Do I wish this device could play games independently of a PS5? Yes! But I knew what this device was and it does that task extremely well.

    The portal is great for what it does. It allows you play your ps5 around your house. It syncs instantly and has a very good connection everywhere, which is surprising since my internet is just okay in certain parts of my house. Turning it on allows it to connect instantly to Ps5. Turning on a controller turns it off making it seamless. The biggest negative has nothing to do with what this is but what I wanted. You need internet to work this, due to the PS5 issues connecting to most Hotel WiFi’s, it means you cannot travel with it very well. This is not a travel console, but an attachment to your home system.

    The PlayStation Portal is a sleek and well-built device that allows you to stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi, providing a smooth and immersive gaming experience with adaptive triggers and haptic feedback. It integrates seamlessly with the PlayStation ecosystem, offering easy access to your game library and PSN features. While it relies on a stable Wi-Fi connection and the battery life could be longer, it's a great addition for PS5 owners looking for a portable gaming solution.

    I’m not sure that the PS Portal would be worth the asking price without the streaming functionality. Since that’s been added, it unlocks all sorts of potential with the system. The screen is beautiful and the controller grips feel just like playing with a normal dual sense controller.

    I got this with the intention of using it in my second floor bedroom while my PlayStation 5 is in the basement. On my home Wi-Fi this thing has worked for me flawlessly. There’s nothing like laying in your bed and playing your PlayStation. There’s nothing much to the device itself as it’s just a streaming platform. What is there feels very well-made. The screen is bright and does its job. I can’t attest to playing this on public or away from home Wi-Fi but if you’re planning on streaming in your house and you have decent Wi-Fi, it is a great device.

    You'll only appreciate this if you're already invested in Sony's gaming ecosystem or subscribe to their cloud streaming. There is no local gaming, which is the reason I rated this as only 4 stars.
