Far exceeding expectations. Screen is gorgeous, controllers are comfortable. And freedom to play without any significant lag delay is really impressive.

The PlayStation Portal is an overall great product with only a few drawbacks.
Positives:
1) If you have a strong connection you can play anywhere, not just on your home WiFi
2) The controller design feels really nice*
3) The screen is pretty good for being an LCD
The Negatives:
1) The connection has to be good and have no interference, if you're on a 2.4GHz WiFi signal you'll probably have issues
2) The touchpad choice is kind of poor, requiring a double tap for a click and a double tap + a third held for a held on the screen.
3) The audio lacks really fine adjustment, which I have found to lead to it being slightly loud, or almost muted.
4) The screen appears to not be HDR which on a few occasions seemed like it lead to some weird color crushing issues.
Overall the PS Portal is a great piece that I would highly recommend for someone who has kids that want the TV or someone who wants to play less realtime games while out of the house.

I was a little skeptical on this but it is awesome! All you need is Wifi & you can play any game that is downloaded on your PS5! Only downside, if i had to pick one is that you cannot bluetooth your headset & the speakers are not that great.

My love for the PlayStation Portal grows every time Sony does a new update! This thing is just plane cool. I use it at home and on the go. I think it works better streaming from PlayStation Plus than it does playing remotely from my PS 5 console, but the newest update has made that a lot smoother. The only downside is the required monthly subscription to PS Plus, but I was already paying that so why not have a portable option? I love my PlayStation Portal!

Originally, it was a remote play device, but with a recent update, it allows you to stream games from Sony (with a premium subscription), which is pretty cool. The games catalog is quite extensive, featuring some top titles. Unfortunately, I found myself not playing it much because the latency that was occasionally noticeable, and the quality would drop. Even when it worked well, I had to stay fairly close to my router, and even then there were occasional hiccups. Maybe my internet wasn’t good enough (500 Mbps).

After reading reviews and checking out videos, i was lucky to get this before it sold out. It has helped me put in 30 hours of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth. I am a full time worker with a wife and kid who has a disability. I dont have to feel guilty about taking the only tv when the wife or kid wants to watch something. It is easy to set up and get working. Its very seamless when using it and the performance is great. My internet is 30 mbps and i have not had an issue with using it at home. Can be charged with the same cable for the PS5 remotes and have been able to play it for a little over and hour before i put it down to do other things. Its very comfortable just like the PS5 remotes. It also feels light but not too heavy. The volume is really loud for this particular unit. It has been a purchase i dont regret getting.
