Customer Ratings & Reviews

It’s a cool thing, the device was open box, it was still clean though, I haven’t had any issues with it. I’ve took it on my 1st trip and it worked like it was supposed to. If I had to I would by an open box item again. The value and quality was so worth it.

I'm happy with My Playstation Portal is the best purchase I make is Best of Best from Sony Playstation 5 companion Controller Handheld is Best Handheld for Travel to other city or State

Excellent gaming device. I was able to play it without the PS5 console because I had the PlayStation app. However, I did get the console for my birthday which made it a much better experience.

I love it — definitely worth it for travel or gaming on the go. Even if you don’t own a PS5, you can still use it by getting PlayStation Plus. It’s honestly a must-have.

Really enjoy the graphics. The connection can be spotty sometimes but overall i enjoy using it

I purchased this to play from the comfort of my bed when I don’t wanna be sitting next to my TV screen. So long as you have a strong Internet connection you will have no issues with game drops or graphics dropping resolution. If you are using this at home, you can use your Bluetooth gaming headset since they are connected to the PlayStation five. You can take this with you and use it with your hotspot but just know that I timed my hotspot data usage with this and saw that in 45 minutes of playing call of duty I burned through 5 GB of hotspot. You cannot use any Bluetooth device with this if you’re outside of the home however it does have the earphone jack and most gaming headsets have a headphone auxiliary connection. Do not listen to false reviews of people who do not own one. Those reviews are just speculation and assumptions. you can take this out of the house. The only thing you need to do is have the PlayStation on rest mode at all times otherwise you will not be able to turn it on remotely if your PlayStation is completely turned off which is OK with me since I like to leave it on rest mode at all times to download any updates that are available. Overall, I believe this is a good handheld device. If you do not want to be sitting in front of your TV screen or want to go anywhere outside of your home that has a solid Wi-Fi connection. This will work for you. If your phone plan has a lot of gigabytes of data for hotspot it will work for you too. I like this device a lot when setting it up I was a bit scared as the resolution looked pretty bad, but took a few minutes to go from 420 to 1080 P during initial set up. i never had any issues since. Trust me just purchase one you want regret it at 200 bucks this is a gaming device.

I wanted the PS Portal when it initially released. With all the complaints and downfalls prior to the new update I was kind of glad I didn’t buy initially. Now that I can connect to Hotel and other public type networks and stream games I don’t own with cloud gaming (Requires PS Plus Premium) I’m overly satisfied with this device….only thing I wish worked was other media players like Netflix, YouTube that I have on my on PS5. Definitely something to own if you love gaming on the go!!!

Great display screen. Graphics are great. Easy set up

I finally got my hands on one and I can’t put it down! Having my PlayStation on the go with me is DEFINITELY a plus. Doctor’s appointments, my workplace and even on flights! Wherever there’s WiFi, my Portal and I will be there!

Was looking for gift for my son and thought this would be great for traveling. Hook up to hotspot and plays games from the house. Can be a little glitchy but nothing compared to dial up days.

I own an ROG ally and trully like to play on couch while playing some movie or whatever. Doing the same with the PS5 seemed like an intriguing idea. Price point is higher than I would like but it does not mean is overpriced. Just pricey. The built quality is up to par with other PS accessories. Panel colors are really crisp and smooth. Set up is very easy from opening box to playing remote. Only feature missing imo is cloud gaming. As of right now is not possible to do anything without a PS5 remotely connected. The propierary wireless audio is a big negative.

I’ve had it for a few years and still works great! I’m happy with my purchase.

Really cool and convenient when it works. Had some connection issues here and there which made Demon's Souls hard to play well on it but everything else such as Stellar Blade was great.

Great purchase. You can play anywhere and monopolize the TV.

I know it's just remote play but easier to play games on when it's just like the controller

The portal worked even better than I expected. I've use other devices for remote play Steam Deck and Phone so I wasnt expecting and amazing performance, but man this thing works very well. Let me also specify I have very good internet with a mesh wifi system and I have my PS5 hardwired but I am very happy with my experience. Even streamed games are pretty good.

I picked up a Portal on a whim ahead of a business trip and was pleasantly surprised by it. The best way to think of it is it's not as a stand alone console but rather a two-way streaming device of your PS5. It does take a little getting used to, especially if you're playing a live service game. But as long as you have at least an 15 Mbps connection you should be fine. One major downside is it can be tricky to connect. Connecting to a network that uses a captive portal/login page can be difficult as it doesn't have a built-in browser. Using a travel router or hotspot is probably the best way to go to avoid this problem.

I got this for my husband and he loves this thing. He’s currently traveling and travels often for work and has been able to use this when he has a little bit of time to unwind and relax. It connects super easy to his PS five at home.

Great for on the go gaming, as long as your PS5 is on! You can also play it without a PS5 if you subscribe to PS Plus Premium (or whatever that tier is). Beautiful quality screen.

The item is great. have had no issues and the quality is top tier. sony did a great job.
