Very good , but thought i could play from a far distance like at a park , not that option , maybe soon they would come with something with such features . But is a good product overall , thanks

If you have the PSN streaming feature, this becomes extremely valuable since then you can continue using this independently of the actual Play Station, so you can stream something directly while the PS is being used for something else. The screen is a decent size, and the controller still manages to feel very natural despite the wider grip. I personally found playing racing games difficult just because of how I move my hands, but RPGs especially are super fun to run on this. That being said, my brother returned his purely because he hardly used it. It is somewhat of a niche for this to actively be used. If your usage is still primarily the main console or you don't move around enough to justify this, then it will just gather dust. So I think it's worth checking out your play flow to see if it's actually useful.

Handheld I can take it anywhere with wifi connection

The size and simplicity of the device is great. For the price and the new streaming update, makes it stand alone and perfect for on the move gaming! No real lag or delay especially if your ps5 is connected via ethernet cord.

It works very well but is dependent on your WiFi and internet connection. If you do not have good internet save yourself the frustration of trying to make it work. Still, for what it is, it works extremely well playing my PS5 games. It feels like a solid and well made item. Time will tell. I bought an open box and it was perfect. Highly recommended.

The PlayStation portal is alright, but the fact that you can not play without the PlayStation 5 being on is really bad. What’s the purpose of getting the portal, and the fact that you want to get more money by forcing us to buy PlayStation plus so we can stream and take it anywhere we want. Then you shouldn’t pay separately it should come with it. So you should change the fact that you have to pay extra for you to take it all around, because my grandma spent a lot of money on this PlayStation portal and I can’t even play it without the REAL PlayStation. So give us our money back please, so we can take our business else where.

Being able to play while laying down is nice! And the big screen is nice too

Excellent addition to playstation. I have enjoyed Gran Turismo on this. I can use this throughout my home. I plan on taking this on vacation, but have not done that yet.

Got this for my Daughter so we dont have to bring the ps5 along on trips. She loves it. Made life alot easier on me.

PS5 suffers from the shackles of console gaming. Ur stuck in one stationary location. I have put half a dozens hours on the PS5 vs the hundreds on the Switch. The portal acts as a Nintendo Switch: go where ever, play whenever (strong WiFi required). I’ve had little issues with lag and slow connection, granted I’m near high speed WiFi spots.

The PlayStation Portal completely changed the way I game. I can sink into my favorite PS5 titles anywhere—whether I’m lounging on the couch, in bed, or even while the TV is in use. The controls feel exactly like my DualSense, the display is gorgeous and vibrant, and the connection is so smooth it feels like I’m right on my console. It’s not just convenient—it’s pure freedom for a gamer. Every time I pick it up, it reminds me why I love PlayStation and why Best Buy is my go-to spot for the best tech experiences.

Absolutely awesome!! My son and I are really enjoying it! He has his Xbox and uses my Portal to play PlayStation exclusives when I’m watching tv loo

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

High end quality, you can play anywhere and very convenient. Graphics are amazing! One thing I would suggest would be amazing if you can play it without having to leave your ps5 running all day.

Great performance and excellent service at Best Buy. As soon as I walked in someone asked if I needed assistance and proceeded to get my online order for me to check out. Ordered some online and picked up same day. Wonderful experience! Product feels solid in my hands and buttons all work great as does the touch screen even with a call screen protector applied. Charging port is difficult to access but that is a very minor issue. Wish battery life was longer but with max brightness and volume I guess that is to be expected a bit (3-4 hrs playtime est.)

This system works great. As an adult gamer and a parent, I don't always have access to the tv where the playstation is, hence, this device has definitely changed the way I interact with my device. Since it's basically streaming from your playstation using wifi, it's not always perfect depending on your connectivity, but for the price and what it does, it's a great device.

Good product, does what it says it will do- stream games. Connection is OK. You need 10/10 Wi-Fi. -

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

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.

I love being able to watch tv in the same room with my husband while he plays PlayStation! We used to always be resigned to different rooms. He's had no complaints with speed and functionality and often picks up the portal now even when the tv isn't even in use. Great purchase!
