Customer Ratings & Reviews

It works great, but often loses signal. When the connection is strong it’s great to have

Was looking for gift for my son and thought this would be great for traveling. Hook up to hotspot and plays games from the house. Can be a little glitchy but nothing compared to dial up days.

Allows me to continue playing my games, even when someone else is using my television. Super clear display.

Handheld I can take it anywhere with wifi connection

quality was good. screen big. wasn't too heavy. however- connection took forever at times even if i was in the same house. can't imagine how bad it would be if i was away from home, which was originally the whole reason i thought about getting one. also laggy during gameplay if wifi wasn't top tier

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

Was on the fence about buying it but well worth the purchase. Must have good internet connection though.

Great customer service. Best Byy helped me answering and fixing the order.

I thoroughly enjoy using the PlayStation Portal. I bought it to be able to play while my wife and son watch TV in our living room. Single player games seem to be fine, a little bit of input lag in MLB the show when pitching and swinging. I have not tried FPS games yet. This may not be the best option for competitive games, but if you want to get a gaming session in and you're trying not to always alienate yourself from your family. This is a great option.

I’ve really enjoyed the Portal thus far. I had to really be on point when trying to purchase the last couple months with people scalping the hell out of them which is unfortunate for those who are truly interested. Here are my pros and cons: Pros: Portability - not the smallest device but it’s small enough to serve as something you can bring anywhere Comfort - Dual Sense is one of the best parts of this build. It looks weird, I will not deny that. But it’s so practical you wonder why others haven’t done this. Screen size is about perfect. Quality is what you’d expect from Sony. Brightness is VERY bright and the color saturation is good. Speakers are actually pretty good for a portable. Louder than I had expected I have not experienced any issues with packet loss while playing on my home network. I don’t have anything special for wireless. Cons: The lack of first party accessories. I know Sony came out and listed this as more of an experimental product, but I’m a little surprised they didn’t take advantage of providing 1st party accessories. The stuff on Amazon is fine and works (cases and screen protectors), but it would have been nice to have from Sony. Cost for some may steer them to the backbone.. and although the backbone is a fine product, it doesn’t compare to this for the overall experience. And you don’t have to give up your phone. Overall for what Sony advertises this product as, it fits the bill perfectly. I don’t think it’s for everyone. People who don’t have a dedicated gaming space like me and often times are splitting the tv amongst your family, this is the closest you can get to perfect. Highly recommended.. until the Vita 2 comes out. One can hope!

It has potential to be a very great device only problem is it drops signal a lot. You have to have good service still learning how to work it but I’m happy

It’s a great streaming device runs really well had no hiccups of any kind.

It works awesome! Plays all my games no problem. Graphics and sound are great

It’s a remote player! Lets me be lazy and play things from bed, instead of getting up to go into another room, also convenient when someone else is using the tv the system is connected to.

I love the protal jus wish it was more accessible off online hatw how it has to be on the wifi to play battery drains but other than that having a good wifi connection n you straight to play onlineges with friends

This device is perfect for Dads or people with a partner. I find that this device solves a very particular but very real problem. Let’s say you want to use your PS5 but the TV is being used by someone else: your partner, kids, in-laws etc. You could theoretically put a tv in another room and play your PS5 there. Maybe even in your office if you have one. Well think again pal, god-forbid you’re not in the living room with any of the aforementioned people as the TV blares another episode of Bake Off or 90 day fiance. All you wanna do is play Diablo IV, or Monster Hunter, or Spider-Man 2 but you can’t hog the TV for your silly little video games when you could be enjoying every one else’s company. Even on nights where its just you and one other person, your presence on the couch is more important than the sweet sweet loot you could be getting in your preferred digital world. Well if any of that sounds like you, wallow no more. The PSP lets you enjoy all that your PS5 offers without having to sacrifice your presence in the family room. Now instead of hearing, “Why dont you spend more time with us?” or “I don’t care what we watch, as long as you’re here.” Prepare yourself for “Hey, are you listening?”, “Hey can you pause that?”, and my new favorite, “could you turn it down a bit?” No longer am I staying up late to play games only to wake up a few hours later in a groggy nightmarish state. No longer am i sacrificing quality hang-out time in the living room worh everyone in my life. No longer am i the seemingly antisocial gamer that society perceives me to be. I can finally be with the people i love all while playing my playstation games and not feel bad about it! My only complaint is that it occasionally drops frames and i have an ideal internet set up. Otherwise, its a near daily use for me. It’s convenient, light, and fun to use.

Great item! Takes me back to my PSP days. Convenient, portable, and fun.

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)

Bought this so I could play my PlayStation anywhere in the house. However my children use it more than I do and they love to be able to play the PS in their room.

I’ve had it for two years and Somy has put out nothing but spectacular updates that make this device compound in value. To me, this is one of the best electronic purchases I’ve ever made.
