Very fun to play with and portable. Graphics are great and nice

awesome, very helpful to have with a large family and able to still play games without bothering others in the home.

Nice to be able to take game around the house and not be tied to main tv. I thought this would be a shelf sitter but find myself using it on a regular basis to let the kids use tv or hang out on the porch and play. Great screen smooth controls.

The PS Portal is certainly not for everyone. I think it only appeals to a small variety of people. Remote Play seems to be only popular with hardcore Playstation gamers. I got it because my parents watch a lot of TV, sometimes they binge watch shows for hours and I get bored and sometimes want to play a game or if i'm playing something that is inappropriate or something not of their tastes I would play the PS Portal on that specific game. When it works it works, but I recommend connecting it to a 5G network as I ended up doing, not a 2 GHZ network. While the overall functions are good it's a shame the Streaming services seem to be blocked and that would have been a great selling point to stream shows on the PS Portal as it has a really great screen and very useful when you need it. It isn't perfect but there is certainly room for improvement.

Since purchasing my PS Portal, they have only made it better! Cloud streaming has made this a handheld anyone with or with or without PlayStation should buy. All you need is a PlayStation account and a yearning to play games on the go!

Nice game, has some issues to get it connected but works well.

The build overall is solid. 4 starts because personally I don't use it that often. I'm always drawn to go back to the PS5-TV experience. It is a shame that in order to really enjoy the experience you need a very stable WIFI signal, although I understand that being the case. I expected the joystick feeling being the same as the one from the Dualsense, but that's not the case. The joystick are significantly smaller and for someone like me with big hands and fingers the experience wasn't that comfortable. I would say if you are the type of gamer that enjoys FPS games then stay clear from it, nor comfortable at all for that. I struggled playing RDR2 every time I had to shoot (so imagine games like BF or COD). Again, it there was a 3.5 star rating I would rate it like that, but 4 seems fair too since I'm basing it purely on my tastes and experiences with it. I used probably 5 times, no more than 2 hours per sitting. For me having ~$200 laying around with little to no use is not worth it.

Works great. Streaming works flawlessly and the screen is better than expected

The PS Portal is, by a lot of definitions, a solid device. It’s essentially built like a dualsense with a tablet sandwiched in between the sides and is largely comfortable to use. The big notice with this thing is that Sony’s protocol for connecting to your PS5 is…imperfect to say the least. Bottom line, I find this thing works great for stuff like sports games, card games, some indie games, or other types of games that don’t super heavily rely on precision timing. The input delay introduced through remote play is passable, but I wouldn’t dare use it to play any FPS or even some more difficult platformers. All in all, it has its uses, and if your use case aligns with the mentioned scenarios above, I’d recommend it.

Gaming on the go Need decent wifi but the image quality is better than Nintendo can dream of.

Love it! Works perfectly. The screen size is ample, it’s comfortable to hold and great for playing games anywhere within the house when the TV is being used for something else.

I like it and it's definitely cool but I don't think you absolutely need it. It's very convenient of you travel or like to watch TV and play games but it can be a little slow and is very dependant on your internet. Cool product tho and $200 is a reasonable price.

Fun! Easy to use! You can use it anywhere Love it

Got this to be able to use when i want to play remotely, been pleasantly suprised with it. the screen is bright and clear. the device is comfortable in my hands, its not heavy. the only downside i have noticed to it, are with games that use the button on the touchpad of a normal ps4/ps5 controller. ive not yet noticed a way to use that button on the Portal, ive only tried one game and it had otherways to get to the section that i needed to go to (the touchpad button was a shortcut to a map) other than this, i have loved everything about this device.

Great for PS5 owners who want to play anywhere at home. Streaming is smooth with solid Wi-Fi, controls feel just like a DualSense, and the screen looks sharp. Downsides: no native/cloud gaming and it’s useless without a PS5 or strong internet. Worth it if you mainly want portable PS5 Remote Play.

Amazing console able to play games away from home only draw back is if ps5 hasn’t been on for a day connection will not connect. Although when you have a personal WiFi at another house connection issues are irrelevant but if at a hotel terrible would recommend streaming rather than playing own library games

Probably one of my favorite pieces of tech. Being able to play when I travel or somebody else’s occupying that TV I can still play my game and not watch love is blind. Definitely with all the updates that they continuously push.

It’s a nice device though using WiFi is pretty spotty at times. When it works though it’s fantastic

Amazing portal I can take everywhere, picks up right where I left off. Amazing, so in love.

They updated the system, and it works excellently the battery also lasts longer, it doesn't drain when you aren't using it.
