Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great product. You can set your PS5 in “Rest Mode” and use this to play remotely through WiFi. Only downside is, the WiFi you use can’t be one of those where you have to “accept terms conditions”, for example a library or a museum. It has to be a direct access type of of WiFi.

I've waited for this to be back in stock and went back and forth on whether I would buy it when it was. After watching and reading many reviews over the months, I decided to go ahead and buy it and I'm glad I did! This is a good device, great screen clarity and size and the grips are just like the PS5 controllers. Sony nailed it and because of this I am actually playing my PS5 more often. A lot of the reviews mention that you need a strong connection and that does seem to be the case, because on a public, restaurant or even a hotel setting, you'll get some tearing and freezing and the connection will just drop. Plus, it'll take forever to connect on a weaker network, but other than that, this is a great device! I, like many PlayStation fans, hope that Sony gets back into the handheld games, because if this has native game capabilities and Bluetooth, it would be a super Vita or PSP!

Great for what it is. Nice to be able to play my PS5 games while the kid watches Monster Jam. Make sure your PS5 is hard wired to your router. Also turn off HDMI-CEC so waking your PS5 doesn’t turn on your TV when connecting with the Portal. COD is playable online when on the same router with minimal input lag, input lag is greater when playing remotely thru WiFi, like at a hotel. Get a skin, case and screen protector! You can’t stream media, only play cloud games or games on your PS5.

I bought this for my daughter who plays a lot of Fortnite and hogs the livingroom TV. Now she can play in her room with zero lag. This system has a great screen, it connects seamlessly, and we have even used it at relatives homes (with strong wifi) to play remotely! For what it does, this portal is great!

This thing is so cool! I can play while the kids hog the TV! Best purchase ever and worth every penny!

I have loved the portal! I use it to play more story mode games so not really sure how it does with multiplayer games. I bought to bring to work so I can play during my breaks. Its been perfect for that!

Waited patiently for my kids too get old enough and Bam! It worked out too enjoy my childhood games with my kiddos while I play another console with another in the same room. Glad it works just as ADVERTISED! Great product!

Portable play no dislikes wish tge latency could be fixed

There are a few dumb restrictions either built into the thing (no streaming streamed games) or there because of legal whatever (you're not going to be watching anything on here, thanks DRM laws), but otherwise a pretty good product for what it is.

Works pretty good. It take a minute to connect to my ps5 and my network. But all in all it works good

Considered reviewing this as either 3 or 4 stars. Pros Grip: controls feel amazing. It's really like having a screen build into the Dual Sense. Screen: I don't believe it's OLED, but games still look spectacular and POP on this massive big screen. Sound: Sounds good, too. Works well with my new Elite PS headset or just running speakers. Connecting: Firstly, I have no idea if I can actually get this to connect to my PS5 if I'm traveling, so I'm reluctant to do so until I get a case for it. I mostly bought this device so I could play PS5 games while my kids take over the tv. Within my network, it usually works great, though sometimes I need to restart the device and/or the PS5 if it's demonstrating unplayable lag.

Absolutely love this thing as i travel for work alot. Small convenient and a blast to use to play jak and dexter!

My love for the PlayStation Portal grows every time Sony does a new update! This thing is just plane cool. I use it at home and on the go. I think it works better streaming from PlayStation Plus than it does playing remotely from my PS 5 console, but the newest update has made that a lot smoother. The only downside is the required monthly subscription to PS Plus, but I was already paying that so why not have a portable option? I love my PlayStation Portal!

I was honestly surprised by how smooth and responsive the PS5 Portal is. The display is crisp, controls feel just like the DualSense, and the setup was super simple. As long as you have a strong Wi-Fi connection, this thing runs flawlessly. I can keep gaming even when the TV is in use, and it’s perfect for relaxing on the couch or playing in bed. Definitely worth it if you’re deep in the PlayStation ecosystem.

Obviously, this needs more features to compete with the expansive handheld gaming market. However, I absolutely adore this product for bed gaming and reading fine texts on the PS5. Its not as laggy as remote gameplay and its very simple to use and set up. For my niche needs, this is an absolute game changer!

I’ve got 3 kids and finding time to play on my tv is tough…this is a great remedy. Also if you have bluetooth headphones (pulse 3d) and are close to your system you can mute the portal and listen straight from your PS5. This was a game changer and saved me $200 by not having to buy the new headphones.

This thing gets used daily. Obviously can’t compare to sitting in front of a larger TV but it’s great if lounging on the couch, killing some time. We’ve taken it on vacation using remote connection. We have found this works well for the most part though games that require instant response may/may not have a seamless experience due to some network lag.

Works good you just have to be connected to wifi and pay the subscription.

Works well with good internet. Able to play my games on the move

The best thing PlayStation has come out with!! Love the feeling of sitting on the couch and being comfortable and relaxed using it without having to sit in a chair in front of a screen!
