Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought my grandson this Sony-PlayStation Portal Remote Player for his birthday, but specifically to keep him occupied during summer days. My fingers were crossed hoping it will cause him to unplug his game from the TV so my grand daughter and her friends when they come to visit can watch the TV in the den. It worked, yesssss. He loves the versatility of this hand held devise, he's from room to room with no lag from the Wi-Fi.

Being able to have your PS on the go is great. I travel a ton for work but I’ve been able to play without having to pack my entire PS5. The system will sometimes lag which is sometimes expected with some WiFi but other than that, I have had no other issues.

Firstly, the Playstation Portal isn't going to be for everybody. It's going to see the most use in situations where there are more than one person using a the television the PS5 is hooked up to. Secondly, the Portal performs best on a wifi network with a good, strong signal and nice high speeds. I have tested the Portal extensively while using my phone as a hotspot, and it works well enough to play something that isn't going to require a fast reaction time. As for the performance of the Portal and my own personal experience, I just couldn't be happier! I mostly use my Portal at home while my wife is using the television to play her Switch. Also when I'm relaxing in bed, that is an excellent time for the Portal to shine. The graphical fidelity is beautiful, great range of color on display, images comes through nice and sharp. Response time for the controls is almost without any lag at all, making gaming on this little gem a wonderful experience. Sound from the Portal is about what you'd expect from a portable device, it good enough. I picked up the Pulse Elite headset just to use with the Portal, glad I did. The Pulse Elite connects to the Portal without any dongles or extra hardware or anything, and it makes the audio experience VERY worth the price of the headset. If you get a Portal, get the Pulse Elite headset to go with it! Finally, the Playstation Portal is comfortable to use. It seemed like it was going to be a bit large at first, but after extended use I've found I can play for hours without any issues. Keep in mind this is on my home wifi network, which has very strong signal and very high speed. Even on my phone's hotspot, the Portal works well enough to play a lot of games, but I highly recommend using it on a good fast wifi.

Great system to use if you're on the go. System gives you the ability to connect to your PlayStation at home whne your away.

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! LIGHT WEIGHT GOOD QUALITY & FEATURE'S!!! SHE A Beauty

ITS WORTH IT!!! The streaming quality is surprisingly smooth as long as you have decent Wi-Fi. Games look sharp, the controls feel exactly like a DualSense, and there’s basically no learning curve. It really feels like you’re holding a full PS5 controller with a screen in the middle.If you have a PS5 and want more freedom in when and where you play, the PS Portal is absolutely worth it. It’s simple, it works, and it makes gaming way more convenient.

Portal is a must have if you travel for work. Highly recommend!

I love it! I wish it were able to operate better when further away from home , but I truly love it. It’s nice to be to play not in one area.

I love the portal remote player. I mostly use it when i'm traveling or at home when i'm cooking out.

Produto de ótima qualidade, gostei muito, fácil de conectar, fácil de jogar e imagem muito boa

The device feels comfortable and connects flawlessly to my ps5 where I go. The screen is beautiful and the battery life is good.

I didn't know i was going to enjoy this device so much, games run great not too noticeable lag, now I can play while my wife and kids watch tv. Games look good

Amazing product! It’s everything I asked for and then some! This product allows me to play from my bed or anywhere else on a strong wifi connection! For example I am in NY and my PS5 is on at my house in Boston! Nifty and convenient product on the go. Best Buy was able to help me in tremendous ways and the easiest way. I am thankful for all the help and support and will be using this website to purchase more products in the future! This is one of the best gifts I could have ever received. Thankyou Best Buy

This was great for my situation. Basically I wanted the PS5 in the living room so everyone in the house could access it but still wanted a method of playing my games in my room. The wifi router happens to be in my room and my PS5 is connected with an Ethernet cable so I get a perfect connection 99% of the time. Randomly I do get some buffering where the picture gets laggy but it quickly corrects itself. Previously I tried a backbone controller but I really wanted a bigger screen plus with the backbone you basically lose your phone while you play. Now for the cons, the most obvious is there is no Bluetooth and with a handheld that's surprising. Not sure if it was my headphones but the headphone jack on mine seems to lose connection and I have to reinsert it to register. I did buy open box excellent so not really bothered since the speakers largely get the job done. But the thing that bothers me most is the psp portal not being able to turn on your PS5. You either have to leave it in sleep or on all the time from seemless connection to your ps portal. For me I just turn my PS5 on and walk back to my room once it's connected but it's definitely a hassle. Overall I recommend it if you want access to your PS5 in multiple rooms. I can't speak on how it handles out in the world.

I have been waiting for Sony to make this product worth while and the new update did exactly that. With the ability to stream games straight from the PS PLUS service, this product has become well worth the purchase. It feels great in your hands and the screen is beautiful! Its the best mobile gaming device by far in my opinion.

LOVE THE COMFORTABILITY OF THE REMOTE AND THE GRAPHICS ARE INSANE.

I get to now play on the go! What more could I want! Now you can stream on it. Dont think, just buy!

Great product for ps users. Quality Sony hardware and easy to use.

Loving the portability of the PS portal graphics are good and it’s easy to set up!

I love it. So convenient to be able to play my ps5 games when all the tvs are being used up.
