How to download the uncharted PlayStation portal to wifi and fester between to PlayStation 5 or PlayStation 4

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

I like the performance and the most recent update to cloud streaming

The graphic are amazing an it’s very entertain an great for the kids

To get the best out of this device you need 2 things: 1. PS5 plugged into your router via Ethernet. 2. Good wifi signal. In my experience, you can play most games at full speed without any issues. It's great for 3rd person action games, RPGs, platformers, etc. I assume twitchy online shooter games are less-good compared to just playing them on a console. But this is a streaming device, not a portable console. The screen is nice and big - a big win if you're used to playing/streaming games on your phone. The controller itself is basically all the same tech from the DualSense controller. Your hands might get uncomfortable after a long play session. Not sure if that's from the added weight of the device or the ergonomics of the device itself. It takes USB-C and has a headphone port, which is more than you can say about most devices nowadays. People like to compare this to handheld computers that cost much more and take much more work to set up PS5 streaming. This is a no-frills streaming device that works right out of the box. It doesn't promise to offer more than that.

It’s a very good thing to have when away from home as long as you have good WiFi.

Gift for daughter birthday and she loves it!!!! Now she can take her PlayStation anywhere with WiFi

Great for getting away from the couch and playing my game in bed, on the go, or at a friends place

This is not what I thought it would be. I was hoping it was a console that I can play offline but no you have to be online to play it. And also to your PS4 has to be on rest mode.

Food WIFI connection is needed, otherwise it’s good

Good product but WiFi ain’t it. To be real it’s dope but if you don’t have a strong connection waste of money.

Great way to play around the house! Has great range and good batter life.

It looks amazing, value for money. It's a good experience if you want to play in portable mode.

great product but much better after the Sony update to make it a full fledge cloud gaming machine.

Originally, it was a remote play device, but with a recent update, it allows you to stream games from Sony (with a premium subscription), which is pretty cool. The games catalog is quite extensive, featuring some top titles. Unfortunately, I found myself not playing it much because the latency that was occasionally noticeable, and the quality would drop. Even when it worked well, I had to stay fairly close to my router, and even then there were occasional hiccups. Maybe my internet wasn’t good enough (500 Mbps).

I recently purchased the PlayStation Portal from Best Buy as an open box item, and overall, it’s a solid addition to my gaming setup. The standout features for me are the controller feel and the screen size. The controllers are well-designed, comfortable, and responsive, providing an immersive gaming experience that matches the quality of a traditional PlayStation controller. The screen size is just right, making it easy to enjoy detailed graphics and gameplay without straining my eyes. However, it’s important to note that the graphics quality is highly dependent on your WiFi strength. When my connection is strong, the visuals are crisp and clear, enhancing the overall experience. But when the WiFi signal fluctuates, there’s a noticeable drop in graphic quality, which can be a bit frustrating. In summary, the PlayStation Portal is a great device for those who want to enjoy their PlayStation games on the go, provided they have a stable WiFi connection.

REMEMEBER, this is a straming device, not a standalone gaming system. You WILL experience minor stuttering. It will be different from the experience directly from the PS5 on a TV. With that being said, it is completely playable and I have put some hours into it without issues. I did, though, have to make sure my PS5 was connected via Ethernet cable because WiFi was too unstable to have smooth gameplay. Once I connected my ps5 directly to my router via Ethernet cable, the Portal worked really well. The screen is not OLED but it looks really nice. The controller feels great in the hand. I have medium sized male hands. I have tried PS5 remote gaming through my iPad Pro 11 inch with ps5 controller, iPhone, and MacBook. I’d still choose the Portal over those. It just feels better. And I like that the controller lights up green when turning on the the Pip-Boy light in Fallout 4. Overall it’s a great product as long as you know what you’re getting.

Got this for my husband he may love it more then me :)

Got this for someone as a gift and they love it. The only thing that is off putting is that in order for it to work well with no lag you have to have really really good WiFi. If you have amazing WiFi and a ps5 I would say to get this but if you don’t have $200 but want something like this the backbone works just as well.

Best mobile gaming system!!! Graphics are on point easy connection and setup
