It works great for what it is, if you want to play your PS5 while someone is using the tv or you want to play while in bed this thing is great. Mine works great with my mesh network. After trying this away from home i can tell you this thing is solid. I played connected to spectrum internet and my PS5 connected to ATT Fiber and I did not notice any lag whatsover. Keep in mind if your wifi hardware is crap then you may get a lot of stutter that some reviewers mention. I did not try this with multiplayer games just single player games and it works great. I wish it had bluetooth though but for the price i think its a great accessory.

The PS Portal is a unique device. Its only remote streaming, so internet connection plays a big factor in how well the device works. I can understand that this is not for everyone, but there is something here to build on. I highly recommend hardwiring a ethernet cable from your router to the PS5, so that connection is stable. I havent had any issues with lag or disconnection while playing the portal. I have played a few games (GoW Ragnarok, Destroy All Humans 2, Spider-Man 2, The Order 1886, Spongebob Cosmic Shake, Robocop Rogue City and WWE 2k23) on the Portal and each have played better than expected. If you are on the fence about getting the device, just make sure your PS5 is hardwired to the router and you should be good to go.

Trust me! If you are a dad who wants to get in some gaming whenever possible, this is a good buy. You can either remote into your ps5 or pay extra for cloud streaming.

This is a great system on the go WiFi connection needed and pairing to your ps5 as well, if this device is for a minor make sure to research information on pairing device to a minors account before purchasing. Was able to pair with my sons minor account took some research but was able to do so and he loves it
Even if you don't think you need it,you'll love it

Excellent solution for when you want to play PS5 in bed or in the bathroom, or maybe even on your lunch break. If you have good internet speeds, then you shouldn't have to worry much about lag, except in competitive multiplayer games. I'd recommend it for sure.

I purchased the PlayStation Portal for my daughter's birthday, and I have to say, it’s been a game-changer for her gaming experience. From the moment she opened it, she was thrilled with the sleek design and the promise of seamless gaming access.
Setting up the device was straightforward, and within minutes, she was ready to start playing. The remote play feature works incredibly well, allowing her to stream her PS5 games directly to the Portal with minimal lag.

Great for home use. Wife ues the TV I still can game!! Went on vacation and took it but could not connect to my PS5 maybe the net was to slow? idk For 200 bux though was a good buy so I can still play at home if the TV is being used.

This console is great! It was a birthday gift for a 14 year old and they love it. We stay on the go and being able to continue in game play has been great for them!

Works great as a ps5 remote play device. Screen is great and the controller is comfortable. The thumb stick are a bit smaller than the regular dual sense and the battery life is not great, but overall great product.

I absolutely love this device. Sony hit it out of the park with the design. However, it was a rocky implementation at first. There was crazy lag and jittery jits you had to deal with occasionally. However, this has all changed after the 4.0 OS update. Not only has the delay been resolved (no more jittery jits) but now you dont even have to connect to your PS5/PS4. The portal can now stream cloud games. Sony is beta testing now and its awesome! Highly recommended buying.
