    Great idea that doesnt work right. I have 1gig internet speed, ps5 plugged directly into my router and sitting in the same room using the portal it still glitches because of internet speed connection. Depending on the game this can be an issue as it has been for the show23 with trying to time things. If the 2nd version of this, sony adds an internal hard drive that you can load a handful of games into that would be perfect. Wanted to love this, it just doesn’t work good enough.

    This item is not really necessary if you can play on your ps5. This device is worth it if you want the handheld experience abd wabt to play anywhere in your home.

    I purchased a reconditioned PlayStation Portal from Best Buy, and although the physical appearance was as stated, excellent the issue was the left controller had so much drift in it I could not even set the system up. It kept moving to different characters on its on??? So what exactly is their verification process? So the rich part wasn’t that they apparently did not do a check of the system. When I returned it, the customer service rep asked me if I wanted to just get a new one and pay the difference? What are you freaking kidding me? So I ordered online so I won’t have to drive 15 miles to BB, which I now had to do to return a defective item and you think I want to reward your company for the inconvenience caused to me? RIGHT!!!! I’ll just order a new one from Amazon and no longer do any purchases from Best Buy, this isn’t baseball. Two strikes and you’re out, do not buy anything refreshed from them.

    I know it’s not its own independent system but the Portal is still really cool and fun to use. If you have good internet it works like a charm. Well worth the money!

    If you have children or don’t have much time for gaming, this is a must. Just make sure your PS5 is hard wired.

    It does exactly what it said it would do I only wish I was able to watch Netflix or Apple TV on it. And I wish you were able to download games to it like the Nintendo switch.

    Great product to play on the go. Ps5 is required to connect to the portal and it needs to be left idle at home if you want to play the portal.
