Customer Ratings & Reviews

People need to stop reveiwing products based on what they want them to do, and review them based on what they promise and or offer. This is a REMOTE PLAY handheld. Not a whole new handheld system, and if it was people would complain about paying over $500 and having to buy new games. The PS5 doesnt have bluetooth so why would the portal? It would cause latency anyway. If you have good internet speed you won’t have problems with lag at all. The system is very light and comfortable. I love that it has the same controller design as the PS5 controller. The screen is beautiful and large. And it’s CHEAP for $200. A controller is $70 on its own, so you’re paying an additonal $130 to play your games handheld. It does everything it claimed very well. This is the best way to remote play. Period.

The game system came in a timely fashion. It works extremely well. Great quality handheld game system.

For fun on the go... nothing beats my portal. I love the fact that i can play everything on my playstation while i am away.

Purchased open box for $140. And for that price a great supplement to the PS5. Remote play and cloud streaming requires a solid internet connection, and can be spotty if you dont have full signal, even with 2Gbps Fiber, so make sure you are close to your router. But for a gamer dad, this device allows me to play games casually more than ever. Just dont expect to reliably play multiplayer games due to latency. However, ive been playing Arc Raiders through cloud streaming to do low risk loot raids when my familiy’s using the TV and its been a blast.

The PlayStation Portal looks and feels great, and it really shines when you have a strong, stable Wi-Fi connection. The screen quality is excellent, and the responsiveness is solid when streaming from the PS5. It does exactly what it promises, lets you take your PS5 gaming away from the main TV and enjoy it anywhere in the house (or outside which I did not try) That said, I do wish it had a bit more versatility. It would be amazing if you could use it to stream your favorite shows or at least act as a remote control for what’s playing on the PS5 when you’re not gaming. Right now, it’s strictly focused on gameplay. Overall, it’s a sleek and fun way to extend the PlayStation 5 experience, but it could be even better with added media features.

Love this, i bought it for a child and it works perfectly! For quick and easy for on the go !

Waited patiently for my kids too get old enough and Bam! It worked out too enjoy my childhood games with my kiddos while I play another console with another in the same room. Glad it works just as ADVERTISED! Great product!

Bought this primarily so my wife could use our living room television and I could still play something in our living room. Had some connectivity issues at the start but for the limited time i do use it I really love it. Very happy with it!

Can literally play from anywhere and I travel All the time. I have the cloud service so that’s even better

I appreciate that it’s easy to use and can connect with the Ps easier and can be used in the go.

I hate that i like this and it works well. I cant wait until they have a legitimate portable player rather than just a streaming device - its very dependent on having a perfect wifi signal. however, when it works, it works great!

Joy stick needs improvement. It doesn’t have the same force/tension to it as a regular joy stick controller so if your trying to play games with aim assist or not then it’ll throw your aim too far left or right or whatever direction you’re shooting. Other wise generally and over all I thought this was a pretty good device. I’d preface this though that I utilize 1gig download speeds and 200mb upload speeds. I have my ps5 connected to Ethernet. Cloud gaming is not quite there yet for shooting games as there is still noticeable latency. I will say however that for me at least, the latency is not too bad; and maybe milliseconds off of a regular controller to tv experience. The only thing that bugs me the most and almost made me return this was the joy sticks issue I described above. If they release some way to modify it so it has the same tension as a dual sense controller then I’d get that. Only reason I kept this was because it’s still a good device to use when someone else is using the tv and it’s pretty decent for casual non shooter games. Despite all this the connection will obviously vary if you take this beyond your own home internet; that is if your home internet is reliable in the first place. I found this to not work so great at my friends house but he has 500mb download speed internet, with alot of kids using other devices. Note that upload speed is more important when remote playing as the ps5 is uploading the feed to your portal. All this being said, there is controversy online on whether the ps5 can even utilize upload speeds beyond 20mb. Many if not all ps5 owners report this issue. Speed test on the settings, even if you have over 200mb upload speeds, will typically only show that the ps5 is using maybe 18-20mbps. Yet oddly enough if you use the browser on the ps5 and speed test.net then it shows your full upload speed. It doesn’t make sense why the os5 limits upload speed. If they removed this limitation maybe the portal for all users will be much better.

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.

Works great with good wifi connection. Nice design and good quality.

I was initially hesitant to purchase the PlayStation Portal after hearing mixed reviews, but I’m so glad I gave it a chance! It’s been a game-changer for me. The convenience of being able to play remotely when I need to be away from my console is unbeatable. The setup was smooth, and the performance has been great for my needs. If you’re looking for flexibility with your PS5 gaming, this is definitely worth it. Highly recommended!

This is super convenient. It’s nice on the days when I’m not feeling like going to the game room to get on my ps5. I can just grab this and chill on the couch and play all the games one my ps5.

Works perfect for remote play. The screen looks beautiful and the battery life is good. I have my PS5 hooked up on ethernet. I havent had any problems using the portal.

Amazing item. You can play your games without being in front of the tv. My wine can watch her shoes and I can keep playing my ps5. Amazing.

Absolutely the best purchase i’ve made! you can play some games ofd the cloud streaming all you need is wifi no console needed. if you are near your ps5 it connects super easily.

This is a great purchase if you wanna game when away from home. Even if I dont have a wifi connection it works great using my phone as a hotspot and I am able to play when no issues. I love the all black finish as well. Its a pegect handheld size and screen brightness and battery life is really good for the price.
