Customer Ratings & Reviews

I think this product has some very good pros. The screen/sound is great, and the fact you can play games on your console without actually being on your console. Unfortunately, I did have one pretty deal breaking con, and that would be the streaming latency. The streaming latency isn’t always bad and isn’t necessarily horrible, but it is enough to make games not as enjoyable.

I was a little hesitant to buy this as it's wifi only and wasn't sure how much I would use it, but as it turns out I use it all the time. When the family is watching something that doesn't interest me I grab the portal and am all set. If I'm travelling I can connect it to my hotspot and stream games without issue. There are the occasional hiccups, but mostly it works like a champ. I love the ergonomics and the screen. Having dual sense is also rather awesome. Highly recommend this.

Ever since the update I have been able to play it more. The ability to take it anywhere makes it a plus as well. I highly recommend anyone that doesn’t have it should definitely go get one, especially for the price.

I personally like the playstation portal. It’s comfortable to hold and convenient to use around the house especially if you have kids. One downfall is it doesn’t connect to the PlayStation sometimes even when on rest mode. So make sure you got somebody home to restart your PlayStation, in case you can’t connect away from home. I played Spider-Man Miles Morales flawlessly along with Mortal Kombat 1. I can’t wait till they add cloud streaming. 

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.

Very good when you are away from home and you want to have a good time playing.

Best purchase I’ve made in a while. I love it. Don’t hesitate to purchase this device. I’ve played so many games without needing a PS5

Love the PlayStation portable. Having this I can now play EA while being in bed lol.

I got this PS as a gift for my little brother, and he absolutely loved it. It’s a great option if you have more than one child—one can play on the ps while the other uses the TV. Perfect for keeping everyone happy and entertained.

Excelente device good quality screen not heavy im happy

I'm happy with My Playstation Portal is the best purchase I make is Best of Best from Sony Playstation 5 companion Controller Handheld is Best Handheld for Travel to other city or State

Gaming on PS5 anywhere in your house! Loving it so far, i haven’t experience any lagging my internet speed (1000mps upload/download). I also owned the backbone the phone screen is just too small for me to enjoy gaming. The vibrant screen delivers an immersive gaming experience. The only downside for me its a bit heavy. It can be a bit burdensome during extended gaming sessions. Overall I love it I wish PlayStation will roll out an update with web browser.

The PS portal surprised me with how much I actually use it. It's perfect for when the TV is in use and it connects fairly easily so I can play even if I can't use the TV I have it hooked up to. It does occasionally struggle to connect due to you have to be fully signed into the console first but most of the time it only takes two or three tries to get it to connect.

I purchased the Portal on release day and ended up returning it after a week. Software issues led to lots of stuttering in games, especially in scenes with lots of panning & motion. Control was nearly unplayable for me on the original system software due to this issue. After a major software update (4.0) I heard these issues had been fixed and decided to give it another try. I'm happy to say that my experience is drastically different this time around. Games run near flawlessly and I don't notice any of the original issues that plagued the system on release. Some open world games with lots of foliage (FFVII Rebirth) may still show slight signs of compression when the screen is in motion, but in terms of response times when buttons are pressed it feels really good. If I had to critique the system, I wish the battery lasted longer and that the controller vibration was closer to the PS5 controllers. The vibration feels less precise overall.

Great for on the go gaming, as long as your PS5 is on! You can also play it without a PS5 if you subscribe to PS Plus Premium (or whatever that tier is). Beautiful quality screen.

Works great never had a problem. Connects every time without a problem as long as the WiFi is decent.

Excellent gaming device. I was able to play it without the PS5 console because I had the PlayStation app. However, I did get the console for my birthday which made it a much better experience.

It works well and with the streming feature i can play at home without having my ps5 on

Love how big the screen is and that I can play my games when I am away from home.

If you’ve already got a PS5 and have a family that likes to use the tv this is very helpful. Play your ps5 anywhere throughout your house as long as you have Wi-Fi. Also with the new cloud update you can use this bad boy on the go! (If you’re a PSplus member)
