Great screen, smooth controls, and perfect for playing PS5 anywhere at home. Comfortable to hold and works really well.

This wonderful piece of machinery has given me the chance to get my game on. As a grown man with responsibilites and children, those things come first. And i don't want to hog the tv by gaming, so i put it off and off and off and I never get to play on my PS5. Now I can easliy chill on the couch with my family while we all enjoy something on the big screen and I can disappear into a game-world of magic. A solid wifi connection and having the PS5 on a wired connection and rest mode helped to optimize performance. I love this thing.

Its good for what it is and only for what its meant for if you havent really paid attention to it then read up before you finally are able to get one no it does not have its own games it does not have a browser it cant play music or videos it cant download anything and does not have Bluetooth BUT it does enhance the remote play experience feels better then using a backbone it has ergonomics of an actual controller with a mini tablet in the middle and there is less lag when compared to using my phone its just not the same when you clip your phone to a holder attached to a controller you have that top weight but with the portal its like a feather it is a bit awkward to carry around there arent any cases for these things yet so you gotta be careful yes its overpriced i think 150 wouldve been good and yes you waste less with a gamesir galileo G8 or a backbone or a razer kishi or a controller clip but the experience isnt the same if you really want this be patient keep looking DO NOT buy it for more then 220 dont go to fb and meet up somone selling it for 300 keep looking and be patient

I knew what i was buying when i bought it, so my disappointment is really in myself. It is BEAUTIFUL and has a great screen, great controls, feels good in the hands, but just being a streaming device SUX!!! Playing your PS5 in your own house with the Portal works amazing, playing in a hotel room is sketchy at best, pick your game appropriately. Network heavy games, from the portal over a hotel network to your machine at home, etc etc, is going to lag, single player games are still going to lag but you won't miss much. If you are getting this for travel, rethink it. If you are getting this for connections between 2 homes, it should be ok.

I used it at home and away from home, and it works great. I played several hours of FF7 remake and had minimal streaming issues. If Sony releases PSnow/Plus integration, it will be the cherry on top. Pros - Comfortable to hold - Large screen - Haptic feedback - 3.5mm audio jack Cons - battery life - lack of Bluetooth

Works great with good wifi connection. Nice design and good quality.

Great console, is dependent on your internet but it does the work. Great for RPG games and long story games allows for the freedom of movement.

I don't do reviews that much I'll make it short and sweet but this thing is awesome I should have got it a long time ago I am happy with my purchase game on

I really love this device! Screen is awesome and battery life is impressive. Only downside is not being able to connect to my AirPod pros. Spending another 200$ for proprietary headphones seems a bit much.

I love being able to play my PS5 in any room of the house while the main TV is occupied. It’s easy to setup and looks great. Make sure your WiFi has the juice to run this. One negative is the inability to connect wireless headphones that are not made by Sony, though you can connect wired headphones.

Works great most of the time, even with the PS5 connected to ethernet and being in the same room as my router, I still get occasional connection issues where the image gets blurry and stutters or it it will disconnect. Battery life has been very good and the display looks great.

I wouldn't really recommend this remote player. From its announcement, it was promised to be a dedicated and more reliable remote player than the app or another form of remotely playing PS games, but it doesn't really deliver. I have a decent network at home with really good down/up speeds (AT&T Fiber). My first issue was that the remote player did not want to connect to my PS5 console. I had to make modifications to the WiFi network. When it finally connected, all the games I tried appeared blurry even though my console and Remote Player were both in the same room right next to the modem. To make the remote player work a little "better" would require me moving the console even closer to hardwire it to my modem. I would still be limited by the Remote Player's WiFi and any interference around my house, and I refuse to move my console from the room its currently in. There are many devices in my house that can cause interference (all the cell phones, other consoles, computers, TVs, sound systems, etc.) Finally, I decided it wasn't worth the trouble, and I returned the Remote Player. Most people have told me they've had "okay" experiences with it or have had to move the console, buy a different router, etc. The reality of it is that this remote player should have WiFi 6 to be a more reliable Remote Player and most people don't have the home network to pair with that if it did have it. Build-wise, it's good. I would've paid double its price for an actual dedicated mobile console from Sony. As it stands, I rather not have this remote player.

I bought this item so when my girlfriend wanted to watch TV I could still play my PS5. It works great! Has an easy setup and graphics look amazing. So far I've only played two games on it. Connections are basically having your Ps5 on and then you can change your channel to something else. It's basically another controller with a screen in the middle. I wish it was more portable like the Asus rog ally x or one of the other handheld gaming systems. But this works for my situation. Hope this helps! Thanks.

I was reluctant in getting this device since you can basically do the same thing with any mobile device - but there’s something about having a dedicated unit with familiar dual sense controls/feedback that makes it worth while. I’ve been using my iPad pro paired with a dual sense for remote play and this portal is much better. I’m clearing a lot of my backlog with this thing. Games look awesome, haptic feedbak is just like the dualsense. I would love it if it was more than just a ‘remote play’ device or if you could pair any set of earbuds, but those small complaints aside, this thing rocks. There’s finally enough availability so if you’re on the fence (like I was) so go get yours!

I love it. game play is not glitchy at all, loads as fast as my PS5. I am a little disappointed that if you travel with it you have to use wired headphones, as there is no BT capability. I would also recommend getting a screen protector and silicone case if you purchase.

Love this, i bought it for a child and it works perfectly! For quick and easy for on the go !

Best way to play your ps5 games with confort and quality.

The game system came in a timely fashion. It works extremely well. Great quality handheld game system.

My only qualm with this device is it should work smoothly right out of the box without having to go through tons of tweaks. The initial impression while setting up this device was really bad. Couldn't get the timezone correctly even though connected to wifi+internet. Had to manually adjust the time and date to get through. Then there were some additional tweaks needed to actually get it connected to PS5. Then comes the lag part, for which needed to bit of googling to figure all the adjustments to get rid of lags and then finally you could get to the good part. Excellent ergonomics, beautiful screen. Gameplay is enjoyable. There is still a bit of lag particularly when you need swift and precise movements. I am hoping that such things would be fixed in the future versions of the device updates. I would definitely recommend if you have PS5 and not able to get hold of the TV screen for whatever reasons.

With the new update the PS Portal has so many features and uses to make the most out of it. Only con is it requires like super stable internet connection but other than that it runs smooth.
