    Great way to continue gameplay away from home. A decent internet connection is required to have stable gameplay.

    This little device does exactly what Sony says it does…it’s a portable PS5. It’s a nice addition to the ecosystem and haven’t had any real issues accept connectivity in and out when using hotspot but none with WiFi. The kids use it mostly and they seem to enjoy it. It allows them to pretty much be anywhere in the house. Overall a very good investment and highly recommend.

    Not Worth It

    Sony continues to be unable to impress with their handheld options. The PS is so great that I keep hoping they can nail a handheld system, but this is not it. We got it for my daughter for Xmas and the connection was glitchy, the screen images were subpar and the whole experience was laggy if that makes sense. At under $200, it’s not terribly expensive, but if you’re hoping to be able to play your PS5 games outside of your house or even in another room in your own house, don’t hold your breath that this is going to be what you hope it will be, it isn’t.

    [Employee of bestbuy] I’ve had for a about 6 months already and it’s an absolute life saver. I have basic WiFi, 300 mb, and it runs perfectly. I’ve used it at hotels and it work just be sure to leave your PS5 on rest mode.

    Great little handheld, if your on the fence about purchasing one I will say that I’ve had zero problems with the portal, I’m about to use it at work on slow days, COD is a little delayed because of so much going on, but playing superstar mode on madden, Carter on 2K it works flawless, also about to run GT7 smoothly as well, it feels great in your hand as well. Go get you one

    It was a very good product but the reason I rate it a 4 star was because I couldn’t connect my 5G hotspot to it so it was only useable in house WIFI and not hotspot. And it also turned your PS5 on when you are not there. So overall I do not know if it was that only problem with that particular PS portal or my hotspot

    quality was good. screen big. wasn't too heavy. however- connection took forever at times even if i was in the same house. can't imagine how bad it would be if i was away from home, which was originally the whole reason i thought about getting one. also laggy during gameplay if wifi wasn't top tier
