    Its great when it works, but if you have anything below the top internet connect there is, then youll get freezing, droped frames and also youll be gaming on 340 resolution. Everythings blurry. 2 out of 5 stars

    Its amazing to hold and play. Ive put at least 20 hours into the device and have had a great time no issues. Ive played it 10 feet from the console and hundreds of miles away and not connection issues.

    It is enjoyable for indoor entertainment when sharing the television. It is also enjoyable when away from home with a reliable Wi-Fi connection.

    Husband uses this purchase everyday in the house when he doesn't want to play his PS5 on the TV. Warning this works if your PS5 is in rest mode before you leave the house. Great wherever you have strong wifi and great for multiplayer games.

    The portal is a great option for home use if you have good internet. I use mine frequently so I can play downstairs whiteout interrupting my family. Would be nice if it was a standalone console, but it’s a step in the right direction.

    It is a great device and suitable for kids and travelers. Ensure your PS5 is connected to the net via wire, not wireless.

    I did not think I would use this as much as I currently do. Unfortunately, this thing has taken up more of my time than I would like to admit.

    Great device, but that only thing that I don't like is that it lags a little when I play Madden.

    Needs a stable WiFi connection to help with the input lag. Controller analog sticks are a little small

    Even with excellent, fast, stable Wi-Fi, you should be aware that constant stuttering, lag and disconnects are a likely prospect. People are resorting to disconnecting cables on their PS5 and changing settings (that should not need yo be changed) just to get it to work. Even after two software updates, the problems persist. Sony should have spent more time on perfecting the software/hardware before reasoning this to the public. Just know that YMMV.
