Customer Ratings & Reviews

I like that the screen is a respectable size and its really clear and games and cutscenes are super clean and my favoritepart is having a ps5 on the go

I love it it’s very portable and I love trigger and it’s not really heavy. Got a nice big screen and a really good refresh rate.

Firstly, the Playstation Portal isn't going to be for everybody. It's going to see the most use in situations where there are more than one person using a the television the PS5 is hooked up to. Secondly, the Portal performs best on a wifi network with a good, strong signal and nice high speeds. I have tested the Portal extensively while using my phone as a hotspot, and it works well enough to play something that isn't going to require a fast reaction time. As for the performance of the Portal and my own personal experience, I just couldn't be happier! I mostly use my Portal at home while my wife is using the television to play her Switch. Also when I'm relaxing in bed, that is an excellent time for the Portal to shine. The graphical fidelity is beautiful, great range of color on display, images comes through nice and sharp. Response time for the controls is almost without any lag at all, making gaming on this little gem a wonderful experience. Sound from the Portal is about what you'd expect from a portable device, it good enough. I picked up the Pulse Elite headset just to use with the Portal, glad I did. The Pulse Elite connects to the Portal without any dongles or extra hardware or anything, and it makes the audio experience VERY worth the price of the headset. If you get a Portal, get the Pulse Elite headset to go with it! Finally, the Playstation Portal is comfortable to use. It seemed like it was going to be a bit large at first, but after extended use I've found I can play for hours without any issues. Keep in mind this is on my home wifi network, which has very strong signal and very high speed. Even on my phone's hotspot, the Portal works well enough to play a lot of games, but I highly recommend using it on a good fast wifi.

Love this product. Took a little while to figure out how to set it up to my ps5 but once I did it has come in handy. The picture quality was a lot better than I thought as was the sound.

This little guy allows me to game anywhere in the house. Visual look good and can stream any game o have on my PS5. Does require good WiFi signal throughout the house but if you got it this provides gaming freedom. Haven't tried the cloud gaming feature yet but will give it a try soon. Great for multitasking. Game on my portal and computer and watch Netflix all at the same time with only 2 monitors

Love my playstation portal i got it for father's day it goes with me every where on trips just playing this handheld is awesome also the new updates are awesome

If you have good internet the ps portal is awsome. The convenience of playing you ps5 games from anywhre as long as you have internet is awsome

The PS Portal is everything it is hyped up to be. I was skeptical, but it’s universally praised views on youtube(a platform where the tiniest flaws turns into an hour of non-stop complaining) sold me on getting it and it did not disappoint. Allows the family to watch something on the TV while I’m playing a game of NCAA 26. Go get it!!!!

Amazing. I love the portability of it. The cloud streaming on it works well and the remote aspect is on point. No lag in remote play.

The PS Portal is, by a lot of definitions, a solid device. It’s essentially built like a dualsense with a tablet sandwiched in between the sides and is largely comfortable to use. The big notice with this thing is that Sony’s protocol for connecting to your PS5 is…imperfect to say the least. Bottom line, I find this thing works great for stuff like sports games, card games, some indie games, or other types of games that don’t super heavily rely on precision timing. The input delay introduced through remote play is passable, but I wouldn’t dare use it to play any FPS or even some more difficult platformers. All in all, it has its uses, and if your use case aligns with the mentioned scenarios above, I’d recommend it.

The device feels comfortable and connects flawlessly to my ps5 where I go. The screen is beautiful and the battery life is good.

The screen is so clear and it’s easy and convenient to play

This is one of the best purchases that I have EVER made!!! I am 59 years old and gaming help me to come down after a long day at work and when I travel for work it helps to still be able to connect to my PS5 and play a game or two for an hour, and that's where the PlayStation portable comes in. I can connect to mt PS5 from wherever I am or I can stream games from my PlayStation Plus account. Great purchase. I recommend.

Very easy to use my husband and i loved it! We use it almost every day

Amazing product! It’s everything I asked for and then some! This product allows me to play from my bed or anywhere else on a strong wifi connection! For example I am in NY and my PS5 is on at my house in Boston! Nifty and convenient product on the go. Best Buy was able to help me in tremendous ways and the easiest way. I am thankful for all the help and support and will be using this website to purchase more products in the future! This is one of the best gifts I could have ever received. Thankyou Best Buy

Once I was finally able to get it in my cart I thought it was a fluke. Kind of like a unicorn sighting. I hit buy without hesitation. I couldn’t believe it. I had been trying to purchase this for my husband since November when it came out. He was over moon! The graphics are amazing. Has the feel of the PS5 remote, rather than backbone. So far I feel it has been pretty good especially for traveling. If you can ever get one with out over paying online for one get it!

Nice to be able to take game around the house and not be tied to main tv. I thought this would be a shelf sitter but find myself using it on a regular basis to let the kids use tv or hang out on the porch and play. Great screen smooth controls.

I got this for my boyfriend for Christmas. He absolutely loves it. He had been eyeing it for sometime and with some new updates he was sold on it but still didn’t want to buy it for himself. He uses it when we are vacation and obviously we aren’t dragging the whole Playstation on vacation or to a friends house. It’s really well built and the screen is fantastic quality.

Initial opinion: Great clarity, onscreen setup was relatively simple, decent battery life (can also plug-in/charge while playing), good sound quality (has 3.5mm headphone jack, but haven't tried using USB-C to see if that works too), D-pad is replaced with a button on left side. I couldn't find a charging indicator/status light anywhere when I plugged it back in which I thought was odd. After playing a few hours on it, the only downside I found so far is that at times it does lag, freeze, get grainy and that was on the same home WiFi network with the PS5 in the next room. My router is a Netgear AX1800 and both the console/Portal were within 20 feet of the router. Since this isn't an issue of lack of bandwidth, it must be the Portal itself, especially since others have reported the same issue. However, it's nice to be able to play while someone else is watching TV. I was playing a downloaded game and haven't tried it with a physical disc game yet, but the lag may not be tolerable in the middle of an action scene/battle.

I like how it feels in my hands and that it pritty sturdy for how it looks and plays games well
