Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good purchase and elegant device! It works good and i can play abroad now!

I've been on the fence about the PlayStation Portal since it was announced, but after picking one up from Best Buy, I can confidently say it's one of the best gaming accessories I've bought in a long time. This is a must-have for any PS5 owner who shares a TV or just wants to game without being tied to the screen.

The PlayStation Portal Remote Player offers a satisfactory streaming experience for PlayStation catalog titles; however, its functionality is unreliable when attempting to stream games directly from a PS5 console. The root cause, whether hardware or software-related, remains undetermined, as connection attempts frequently yield inconsistent results irrespective of network conditions.

Very good condition for an open box like it was hardly used! I personally use it almost everyday. I enjoy how it portable so I can use it on the go. Sometimes it does have connectivity issues, but otherwise it works fine.

Was back and forth on if I should get one. But I absolutely love it. My husband who’s a big gamer loves it as well. He’s stolen it from me more times than I can count.

It is extremely useful. It is a remote play so PS5 is needed to remotely access, but it connects better than any other device used for remote playing. The display is crystal clear and it keeps the viauals of the conaole so if used with a PS5 Pro it will look just as good. It also has a fearure to stream games directly from PS plus cloud.

Absolutely love it does have connection issues but other than that its been great for not having to drag my console around

It’s great when you have strong ping and router! Economics feels great as well! The speaker is great as well! The screen is great! Everything about it is great!

I was on the fence of buying this because it was not explained correctly to me how it works. But when it was properly explained decided to buy it, and I have no regrets. Recommend to buy it and gives you the option to play it anywhere.

Perfect what i was looking for. If you are looking for a portable device.

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 really love how big the screen is while being portable. I got it for my boyfriend and he loves it!

Absolutely love the portal it works perfect with my ps5 pro. Just make sure there's a great wifi connection and you can play anywhere! (Also if you don't have a PS5 to remote play, you can use your PlayStation plus premium account and stream games over the cloud.) My experience buying through best buy is easy and the workers are knowledgeable, easy find easy check-out.

I was concerned about the Portal's ability to provide a smooth playing experience, considering all I'd read online. In use, I've been very pleased - particularly with the streaming option. Using our home internet (which is fiber but has plenty of other devices connected) streaming quality is smooth and fun. A little slower response for games played remotely from the PS5 but still playable as well. Worth it so far!

I managed to get a portal online through BB when they were even more notoriously challenging to get. I am beyond thrilled i did. Great lifespan on the battery, setup is easy, i havent noticed any latency issues either. Well worth it.

"Portable PlayStation fun, smooth remote gameplay!"

I love this thing! Allows me to hook up to my phone and play my games wherever I go

The Sony PlayStation portal offers an immersive gaming experience on a small device. The screen is crisp and clear. Battery life is good. Just a pity it does need WiFi or an internet connection to be useful.

Honestly, one of the best things (a bit over priced for what it has) to use alongside your PlayStation. It's so nice to move around the house and play like I would a handheld but having all the processing offloaded to your console - meaning long battery life too! The WiFi is a bit finicky; I can be 3-5ft away from an access point and get a warning about WiFi signal.

The PlayStation Portal is honestly pretty awesome if you want to play your PS5 without being glued to the TV. It feels just like holding a DualSense controller with a big, bright screen stuck in the middle — in a good way. The controls are legit, the haptics feel great, and it’s super comfy to use for a long time. When your Wi-Fi is solid, the Portal works really well. Games look good, the connection feels smooth, and it’s perfect for chilling on the couch, in bed, or basically anywhere in the house. The catch? It only streams from your PS5. No apps, no cloud gaming, and you can’t even use normal Bluetooth headphones — you need PlayStation Link for wireless audio.
