as a dad of 4 kids playing on the big screen it gets hard for me so i decide to buy the play station portal and it was worth my money i can play anywhere inside my house

I love this portal. I originally bought the white one and turned it back and got the midnight black one. I have no problems with internet connection. It doesn't lag for me. It's perfect for my everyday use around the house.

I was hesitant at first because it is a remote player but it is really worth it! The input lag is barely noticeable and the fact it can remote play anywhere is nice. There is some frame rate drops if there is a lot happening on the screen but it isn't too bad. If you want to play PS5 but also want to go out or play anywhere else this is totally worth it.

I bought this for my husband for his birthday. He absolutely loves it and has used it almost every day since he has gotten it. He loves being able to play any of his favorite games even while we’re out of town. 10/10 recommend for any PlayStation lover!!

It's a great device and I generally like playing it but the biggest downside is the stick sensitivity. There's no resistance like I controller. I've tried thumbstick rings and extenders but it doesn't change anything. If they would put better sticks on this it would be five star

Im a video gamer. It's a smooth way play games even when you are away. You don't necessarily need the PS5 console as long as you subscribe a PS plus. Very good item

Picked it up on a whim. It’s fun to play especially when you have good WiFi connection & when your PS5 is hardwired by Ethernet cable. Best with single player games because if the small input lag, but it’s hardly noticeable.

The PlayStation Portal is perfect if you want to play PS5 games away from your TV. The 8-inch screen looks sharp, and the built-in DualSense controls feel just like your console. Remote play works well with a strong Wi-Fi connection, and the new cloud streaming option is a nice bonus for PlayStation Plus Premium users.

Let me start off by saying that the portal in concept is awesome, but in my time with it i foujd that it did not live up to what i expected. I know this is technically a streaming device only and nothing gets played on the portal natively but i feel like i should not have had the experience i had with it with the internet speeds i have. I see people posting YouTube videos saying they can technically play the device anywhere as long as they have Wifi which definitely did not work for me. I brought it to a friends house and never connected to my ps5 that was in rest mode at home. And even my experience at home was not great i had to go in change a bunch of settings in my portal and my router settings to make it work just a little bit better. Even with what i looked up and changed it still wasnt the greatest experience. Sooo anyways when it works its mind blowing to play God of War on a handheld at 60fps buuut in most case the connection was so bad i would get disconnected mutliple times in a session when i was in the room NEXT to my router, didnt even work downstairs for me. So if you want something you can just turn on and play without having to think then this is probably not for you. I am returning mine after some weeks and opting to get the steam deck instead.

it is awesome. now with it having cloud gaming, it really is a great on the go console.

Firstly, the Playstation Portal isn't going to be for everybody. It's going to see the most use in situations where there are more than one person using a the television the PS5 is hooked up to. Secondly, the Portal performs best on a wifi network with a good, strong signal and nice high speeds. I have tested the Portal extensively while using my phone as a hotspot, and it works well enough to play something that isn't going to require a fast reaction time. As for the performance of the Portal and my own personal experience, I just couldn't be happier! I mostly use my Portal at home while my wife is using the television to play her Switch. Also when I'm relaxing in bed, that is an excellent time for the Portal to shine. The graphical fidelity is beautiful, great range of color on display, images comes through nice and sharp. Response time for the controls is almost without any lag at all, making gaming on this little gem a wonderful experience. Sound from the Portal is about what you'd expect from a portable device, it good enough. I picked up the Pulse Elite headset just to use with the Portal, glad I did. The Pulse Elite connects to the Portal without any dongles or extra hardware or anything, and it makes the audio experience VERY worth the price of the headset. If you get a Portal, get the Pulse Elite headset to go with it! Finally, the Playstation Portal is comfortable to use. It seemed like it was going to be a bit large at first, but after extended use I've found I can play for hours without any issues. Keep in mind this is on my home wifi network, which has very strong signal and very high speed. Even on my phone's hotspot, the Portal works well enough to play a lot of games, but I highly recommend using it on a good fast wifi.

This works great, love the design and love to do cloud gaming without tv

Its a powerful device but it could do more in my opinion it needs more portal capabilities make it fully portal with a opinion to screen share and its a 5 star

So far its been good. Some connection issues, but works well.

Even tho this is not an OLED display it really give you a good quality. This screen is very bright, handheld is lightweight and easy to carry perfect to play on the go. 4 starts because sometimes just disconnects from PS5 for no reason which makes you go back and reconnect.

Wow, cloud gaming is the future! I am so bought in as I can just pick a game on start on the fly. Great for busy professionals who just want to get lost on a quick game.

Portal is a great purchase if you want to still play in your house or if you have a lot of free time in another place that is not your house, the wifi only system is a bit of a bummer, but besides that, it is exactly what you want for mobile gaming.

Absolutely love it. Do not regret it at all. I didn’t think much of it at first until I got it. I was blown away.

Bought this for my father as a Christmas gift! Easy to set up and now doesn’t require having a PS5! Still need a PlayStation subscription but it’s really easy sign in and start playing!

At first I was skeptical due to the Portal being cloud streaming only, however I’ve been thoroughly pleased with my purchase. I do want to add that I have a stable and high speed fiber connection, so your experience may differ from mine. Also if you’re on a network with lots of pull on your WiFi bandwith, I would use a second router attached to your ISP modem via Ethernet to give the PlayStation Portal first priority. It doesn’t take long at all to pair to my PS5, and the quality of my game streaming is excellent. Hardly any input lag for me and almost identical to native gaming.
