Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great display, connecting could use a little work, having a little problem connecting when i am out.

Honestly, at first, I didn’t have much use for the device because, let’s face it, if you are at the same place as your physical console you’ll just rather play on a bigger screen. However, I had to travel for work and, as you all can agree, it was impractical to travel light with good old ps5 in a carry on. That’s when I tapped into the full potential of the PS Portal. Imagine going through Elden ring withdrawal light years away from your console and then being able to access it (as long as you leave it in rest mode) from afar and, as long as the wifi is good, play seamlessly on your PS Portal. It became the metaphorical last coke on the planet and I enjoyed it as if I was playing on the actual big screen at home (yes, at nearly 60 fps). Give it a shot. I highly recommend it!!!

I had my doubts about buying this at first but its worth spedning the money on it. Weak Wifi can be an issue, but otherwise its great.

Great Father’s Day gift for my husband. He can keep up with his gaming on the go.

I wanted this thing for a while. So happy it became in stock and I was able to purchase one. Ever since it arrived, I have played on the portal 100% of the time. I prefer playing handheld on this large beautiful screen. TVs give me a headache so playing on the portal has allowed me to play my games more often. I can finally forsee myself getting through my backlog. This is a must but product if you own the ps5 and want to play handheld. I haven’t had any connection issues while playing. I use T-Mobile home internet.

I love this thing! The screen is way bigger than I expected too and is extremely crisp and clear. My PS5 is hooked up to a 4k monitor and even though the Portal is only 1080p, the picture looks great. I haven’t had any issues with connectivity and have been using it for a few months now. For the price, I highly recommend

The screen is amzing, look similar to OLED diplay and controlers feels great. Battery life i good and didn’t noticed lag inputs while playing FIFA and Fornite.

Best way to play your ps5 games with confort and quality.

This product is good when it works. You definitely need a strong wifi connection, not highly recommended for online multiplayer games because it’s going to have lag, as expected from any streaming. Build quality, sound and image are very good. If you heard about the small analog sticks, it’s not so much like the switch, to me it more just having a longer distance to reach the end of any direction when you move it, which makes it a weird sensitivity learning curve, noticeable difference from the dualsense remote.

This is so fun to use and play with, I love it. Very good match to take on the road

This is literally too bad overall because I LOVED THIS THING. It really really really needs it's own connectivity (besides a hotspot or a travel router) for on the go gaming. Other than that, it was perfect. It's great if you are sitting in the same room as your PS5 or even perhaps in another room or even outside (depending on your setup). It just really needs it's own feed. If an ASUS steam deck and the portal had a baby, I'd buy it.

I was very pleased with the screen quality and ease of use of the portal. It is WiFi-dependant, meaning the faster WiFi you have the more seamless the gaming is/less lag. I’m able to play all of my games from anywhere where I have WiFi and I’m very pleased!

Easy to use, if you have a connection to wifi anywhere you can use it, look amazing, plays amazing, and is smooth.

So I'll start off by saying this: I am not a dad. I don't have kids, but my girlfriend does spend a lot of time of YouTube. Sure, she could go to another room and has offered to do so, but I wanted to be able to play games on the couch in the same room as her while she watched whatever she wanted. A lot of people think the Portal is bad compared to something like the Steam Deck or any device capable of Remote Play. Long story short: For the price, you will not find a better device for playing your PS5 off of the TV screen. Sure, the Steam Deck, ROG Ally, or any number of other portable gaming PCs can do MORE, but they're also at least 2-3 times the cost. And when you look at something like the Backbone, the inclusion of an actual Dualsense and an 8" 1080p / 60Hz screen makes it an easy win for the Portal. So now, the cons: Even with a wired connection to the PS5 and my HDMI cable to in unplugged, there still can be some perceptible frame drops. I have fast internet but I also PC game so it's possible that I'm just more sensitive to dips in framerates. Also, don't buy this if your plan is to use it as a streaming device for anything but games. Apps like Netflix and pretty much anything from the "Media" tab will NOT stream to the Portal. Furthermore, if your PS5 goes into Rest Mode while a game is open the Portal will NOT be able to wake it from Rest Mode. You need to make sure everything is closed out before putting it into Rest Mode in order to wake it up with the Portal. If all that sounds okay to you, then I can highly recommend the PlayStation Portal! It's not too heavy, feels premium, and when you realize that a DualSense Edge controller is the same price, it doesn't sound bad. And as long as you have a good wi-fi connection, you can even play it away from home! Definitely pick one up to fill any gaps when your TV is in use.

Very good product, good battery life, very for on the go

I was skeptical about this product because I already owned a Steam deck. Having decided to try it, I was pleasantly surprised. Good battery life, pleasant grip and vibration. The screen was also a pleasant surprise, although it is not OLED. If you also do not always have the opportunity to play in front of the TV, I recommend giving the product a chance!

Awesome product especially on the go. Easy to use and very reactive like the actually PS5

Bought one for my son to use around the house AKA in the restroom or sitting in the livingroom. His worked as intended. I decided to buy one for myself and take to work to mess with during downtime. I was worried about internet connection, lag and overall functionality of the device. I left my PS5 on rest mode got to work and at lunch linked the PSP to the internet and it only took a few seconds to connect. Now, the wifi at my work sucks but the games played flawlessly with no delays, lags, pixelization or disconnects. I played the downloaded ninja turtles collection from the monthly games for about 10 min and I played Star Wars Outlaws for about 20 min. No problems as of right now. Im guessing that for others that had trouble it was user error because i was ready to return mine if it didnt work as intended but it did work so i will keep this in my desk for when ive got downtime and or just need something to distract me. I will update if i have problems down the road.

Bought this as the TV is being by my wife and kids. The kids have friends over a lot as they use the tv fir shows, movies and video games. The portal is great when the tv is in use and i have some time to play. Tried it on a trip as we are over 400 miles away and it worked great. Have not used it yet with an online mutliplayer game. My ps5 is hardwired for the fastest internet I could get, which I think helps.

Works okay. Need a really strong WiFi connection to avoid distortion on screen. Will not work away from your home network.
