I recently purchased the PlayStation Portal from Best Buy as an open box item, and overall, it’s a solid addition to my gaming setup. The standout features for me are the controller feel and the screen size. The controllers are well-designed, comfortable, and responsive, providing an immersive gaming experience that matches the quality of a traditional PlayStation controller. The screen size is just right, making it easy to enjoy detailed graphics and gameplay without straining my eyes.
However, it’s important to note that the graphics quality is highly dependent on your WiFi strength. When my connection is strong, the visuals are crisp and clear, enhancing the overall experience. But when the WiFi signal fluctuates, there’s a noticeable drop in graphic quality, which can be a bit frustrating.
In summary, the PlayStation Portal is a great device for those who want to enjoy their PlayStation games on the go, provided they have a stable WiFi connection.

REMEMEBER, this is a straming device, not a standalone gaming system. You WILL experience minor stuttering. It will be different from the experience directly from the PS5 on a TV. With that being said, it is completely playable and I have put some hours into it without issues. I did, though, have to make sure my PS5 was connected via Ethernet cable because WiFi was too unstable to have smooth gameplay. Once I connected my ps5 directly to my router via Ethernet cable, the Portal worked really well. The screen is not OLED but it looks really nice. The controller feels great in the hand. I have medium sized male hands. I have tried PS5 remote gaming through my iPad Pro 11 inch with ps5 controller, iPhone, and MacBook. I’d still choose the Portal over those. It just feels better. And I like that the controller lights up green when turning on the the Pip-Boy light in Fallout 4. Overall it’s a great product as long as you know what you’re getting.

Honest Review: The idea of the portal is amazing, but you need to be ready to connect your Ps5 to the internet through a LAN cable.
Too much of Lag while playing games if your ps5 is only connected on wifi. You will not enjoy the ps portal if all the devices are only connected to the wifi network. It is actually frustrating when you are ready to play a game but there is frequent disconnections.
I had to return my portal back due to all these reasons.
