one of the best choices i made for my self to enjoy technology

Loads me in very fast. A feast for the eyes if you’re a PlayStation fan. Only issue I have is it lags every time I connect to my ps5 when I’m far away.

This is awesome i jist wish i had more time to use it. My kids keep stealing it

I thoroughly enjoy using the PlayStation Portal. I bought it to be able to play while my wife and son watch TV in our living room. Single player games seem to be fine, a little bit of input lag in MLB the show when pitching and swinging. I have not tried FPS games yet. This may not be the best option for competitive games, but if you want to get a gaming session in and you're trying not to always alienate yourself from your family. This is a great option.

I’ve really enjoyed the Portal thus far. I had to really be on point when trying to purchase the last couple months with people scalping the hell out of them which is unfortunate for those who are truly interested. Here are my pros and cons: Pros: Portability - not the smallest device but it’s small enough to serve as something you can bring anywhere Comfort - Dual Sense is one of the best parts of this build. It looks weird, I will not deny that. But it’s so practical you wonder why others haven’t done this. Screen size is about perfect. Quality is what you’d expect from Sony. Brightness is VERY bright and the color saturation is good. Speakers are actually pretty good for a portable. Louder than I had expected I have not experienced any issues with packet loss while playing on my home network. I don’t have anything special for wireless. Cons: The lack of first party accessories. I know Sony came out and listed this as more of an experimental product, but I’m a little surprised they didn’t take advantage of providing 1st party accessories. The stuff on Amazon is fine and works (cases and screen protectors), but it would have been nice to have from Sony. Cost for some may steer them to the backbone.. and although the backbone is a fine product, it doesn’t compare to this for the overall experience. And you don’t have to give up your phone. Overall for what Sony advertises this product as, it fits the bill perfectly. I don’t think it’s for everyone. People who don’t have a dedicated gaming space like me and often times are splitting the tv amongst your family, this is the closest you can get to perfect. Highly recommended.. until the Vita 2 comes out. One can hope!

Awesome product but if the internet isnt the best, good luck tring to connect to your ps5. Wish it ran on its own platform.

This device is extraordinary and easy to handle, even my 4-year-old son found it easy; it is quite adaptive, and above all, you can take it everywhere and follow the game lol.

Works as it should, everything was included. I was glad I was able to get one open box in such great condition.

Amazing image and gaming quality but is all dependant on the internet you have... be mindful you require connection to use this...

Great/ best handheld for the price point, games work flawlessly even on minimal internet speeds.

I love it very much, I exceed my expectations, totally impressive.

I brought this product before the hype and was never disappointed. Now with the support from Sony it the only handheld I use!!❤️

Works perfectly and makes it super easy to play anywhere

This device is perfect for Dads or people with a partner. I find that this device solves a very particular but very real problem. Let’s say you want to use your PS5 but the TV is being used by someone else: your partner, kids, in-laws etc. You could theoretically put a tv in another room and play your PS5 there. Maybe even in your office if you have one. Well think again pal, god-forbid you’re not in the living room with any of the aforementioned people as the TV blares another episode of Bake Off or 90 day fiance. All you wanna do is play Diablo IV, or Monster Hunter, or Spider-Man 2 but you can’t hog the TV for your silly little video games when you could be enjoying every one else’s company. Even on nights where its just you and one other person, your presence on the couch is more important than the sweet sweet loot you could be getting in your preferred digital world. Well if any of that sounds like you, wallow no more. The PSP lets you enjoy all that your PS5 offers without having to sacrifice your presence in the family room. Now instead of hearing, “Why dont you spend more time with us?” or “I don’t care what we watch, as long as you’re here.” Prepare yourself for “Hey, are you listening?”, “Hey can you pause that?”, and my new favorite, “could you turn it down a bit?” No longer am I staying up late to play games only to wake up a few hours later in a groggy nightmarish state. No longer am i sacrificing quality hang-out time in the living room worh everyone in my life. No longer am i the seemingly antisocial gamer that society perceives me to be. I can finally be with the people i love all while playing my playstation games and not feel bad about it! My only complaint is that it occasionally drops frames and i have an ideal internet set up. Otherwise, its a near daily use for me. It’s convenient, light, and fun to use.

Awesome product use it everyday definitely recommended for the everyday gamer

I'm loving the playstation portal only problem is that you can play or stream games you paid for under your playstation store.

Great to have as a new father who can no longer game on the TV.

Its just a handheld controller with a screen it does everything you would expect has good visuals and pretty solid frame rate when on a good wifi it’s basically just a switch in handheld mode. But when on iffy wifi it doesn’t work great it has bad visuals lokking very blurry and the lag is rough haven’t tried it out of the house to see how long connections work for it but if you have bad wifi it will not work well so if thats your situation then definitely should pass on this one.

Works great as long as your internet signal is strong. PS5 being connected via Ethernet substantially improves gaming.

Great system. Love that I my son can use the hand held console when he is out of town for work as opposed to having to pack up his whole system.
