Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is an ACCESSORY for the PS5. If you can remember this you will be very happy with it. Yes the type of internet connection you have at home connected to your PS5 makes the difference between whether your experience will be okay or great. For me, since having it I have been able to play games I’ve had but never played because I’m never sitting down on the couch. I recommend it to those looking to be able to play their PS5 away from the couch IF you have great internet.

When i heard about this device i immediately knew i was the demographic. As a dad im often unable to go to my game room until the kids are sleeping. With the portal im able to play while the kids are playing. It feels like a duel sense. Id much prefer the portal over other remote play options. On home wifi its seemless for single player games. I connected it to my hotspot and the quality wasnt as great and i had a few frame drops but it was playable. Id recommend for any parent.

My wife loves this. Plays College football as soon as she picks it up. I tried it myself and find it pretty awesome. The weight of it isnt bad since its different from the controller itself. She plays remotely on the other PS5 in my son's room.

My kids love this, on the go. Compatible with ps5 and best of all I can be watch a movie, while they’re playing on the portable

When it works, its seamless and a very familiar experience thanks to dualsense controller. However, I couldn't neglect the LCD washed off colors when I played any game on an OLED screen.

I got it to use while i was outside of the house . It's a great quality handheld gaming device. But you can't watch movies on it bit other then that the gaming is great

Let’s me play where ever I want. Easy to set up and play. Had a few issues connecting but I understand it’s more with my network than the unit. Completely happy with it.

Works very well. Best buy is the best place for all my electronics needs. With my total tech i couldn't imagine going anynwhere else

You cant connect to any streaming apps, & if a game requires you to sign in with an account, like for example WWE 2K24 requires you to sign in with your 2K account before you play, you cant play it till you sign in on a console connrcted to a tv. Im also thinking if a game prevents you from being able to share it, you wont be able to see it on the portal. Other than that, solid srcice with a great display!

I have spent the past 2 weeks using this decice and I am blown away. I am 1100 miles from my machine due to a family emergency. All I needed was an internet connection and a my machine to be wired at home. It has performed flawlessly. Even when I used my phone hotspot, the lag has not been terrible. I wouldnt play any fast twitch games like COD or a fighting game but for all other games, I have been super impressed.

This a great handheld device , changing your resolution to 1080p on your PS5 is recomended when streaming , the only issue i had was that when ever i tried to conect to a wifi in a hotel room , if the hotel has a webpage where you have to sign in before using the wifi the portal will not let you connect at all it doesn't have website support

The controls fit perfectly in your hands unlike the switch. The battery life is really good. The graphics are amazing and I didn’t really see any lag while playing as llong as you have a good WiFi connection. If you are someone who wants to play while your tv is in use, or just to play on the couch or elsewhere in the house vs being front of the tv or monitor its a great device.

The intergration of the cloud gaming aspect really made this a great product. I initially bought it just for remote play.

Amazing ,love the article and the guarantee Best Buy gives me for it

I had high expectations for this product the pros is the price and the cons is alot

Works perfectly for what it should. Makes gaming on the go a true experience

Got this for myself for Christmas and I was happy to get it using a tracker. A lot of scalpers purchasing this and costing more than retail. This PS5 accessory is needed if you have your PS5 located in the living room and you are sharing the tv with family members. This has been a savior and the battery life last about 4-5 hours depending on the settings I.e lower brightness level, haptic and trigger etc. works flawlessly and I love that the screen itself is accommodating.

Its for us poor dads who get bullied by our little loved ones and took our TVs away for cocomelon or whatever these kids like now adays, with the playstation portal our problems solved , this is your new nintendo switch but with ps5 power and exclusives, and as far as performance its flawless … i played in the bathroom, living room , dining room and most importantly 2 states away from where my ps5 is and it was still perfect , of course internet connection is required !!!

5 Stars - a Must have if you're a parent with a newborn and can't play at your ps5 then get the Portal! Got friends and family that always hog the tv forcing you to wait until the kids go to bed? Play now with the Portal! By all means playing on your PS5 is your best option, but that's why the Portal is great! - it's an option. I will be using it a TON as soon as my 2nd baby boy arrives in 2 weeks.

Love this you have so many cloud games to choose from and it’s very comfortable for long play time
