    Love having my ps games portable. The screen is the right size compared to my iPhone previously. I think the WiFi issues are not great. The portal uses ps remote same WiFi as your home network which competes with others using the same WiFi. My internet is gigabit but my slow Google wifi creates network contention. It has pretty poor WiFi reception on top of that. When no one’s streaming it works great.

    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.

    I bought this device for my job for Christmas. Not really expecting a lot from me and was totally blown away. He plays like the game, my daughter ball games online for her to play and you can play from the games that you have bought. It took a while for it to load to get on the Wi-Fi and wants to get on the Wi-Fi. It was fine we used our hotspot to play and hang out issues. I do think it has room for improvement blurb for what it was worth about I will recommend to buy

    Personally I’ve had a great time with this device. Pros: with my solid internet, I noticed little to no lag while playing games. Screen looks really good for an LCD. Ability to enjoy PlayStation games with all the DualSense features, and portability to play games throughout the house. Cons: Battery life is not great (somewhere around 2 hours), requires a solid wifi connection.

    It’s extremely fun. Works very well! As long as you have a solid internet connection and your PS5 isn’t downloading anything, it runs great!

    Haptics are great. Everything else is mediocre.

    Dualsense haptics are great on this. Steam deck and phones can't quite get it right. Wish there were more options to adjust the streaming quality like chiaki and pxplay, theres not much on portal and the stream quality isn't that great.

    I love this system! It’s so much better than using my iPad and mobile app. The screen is excellent quality and it’s well made! I’ve really enjoyed it. Only thing that would make it better would be to be able to connect any type of Bluetooth headphones

    This is an excellent product with a fantastic screen and really great ergonomics. The unit hooked up to my PlayStation 5 the first time and I've had no problem playing it remotely from my bedroom or the couch. I really hope this is a first step to a true PlayStation portable like the PSP or Vita. Sony is really missing an opportunity into carving out a really good niche in the portable space.

    The ps portal is a great device to use when you want to game at home while the TV is taken, or you want to be able to play anywhere in the house. Although it works over the Internet, it can constantly lose connectivity with your console, requiring you to reset connectivity which would be a hassle when you're away from your home. Otherwise it works great, when it works.

    Very fun as extension for the PS5. Somewhat lacking in performance when streaming, but that is due to sony software

    PS5 in Ecuador Portal in USA

    After 25 minutes of updates I was able to connect to my PS5 that is back home in Ecuador. Being able to play Rivals on EAFC 24 and continue my journey on Hogwarts Legacy while im visiting my brother that lives in the US is just amazing. Sometimes connection wasn't the best but it was until I got someone to connect an internet cable from my PS5 to the router. The portal is great! I just wish there where more settings and Bluetooth available on it.

    The playstation portal came in a timely manner and works as advertised. Its a great at home or on the road to be able to access my PS5 on a crisp handheld screen. Controller works great as well although vibration can be a bit much. My biggest issue is that there is no way to connect to wifi with a splash page. The best alternative is to host the wifi on an android phone hotspot and connect the portal to that.

    I absolutely love the PlayStation Portal. Some people wonder who this device is for—the answer is people with families and only a single TV. If you have decent WiFi and a wired PS5, this is an amazing way to stream games in the family room and let other family members use the TV for something else. The controllers feel awesome, and the screen is my favorite portable screen yet (much better than the Steam Deck or Switch).
