I am not a gamer so I was questioning if I should get PS5 but then decided to get portal for cloud gaming to get just a taste of PS games. I am loving it and don't think I will get PS itself. The form factor makes it more convenient and practical for me. The screen is large and punchy. I mostly play RPG games and did not face much issues on streaming.

I love the PlayStation portal because it allows me to play the game when I don’t feel like going in my gaming setup, say I’m laying in bed and comfortable or I’m waiting on the wife to get dressed I can still beat a few levels without having to stop what I’m doing.
The only thing I will say is there is a slight delay on some of those larger games such as Call of Duty Warzone or Marvel Rivals.

The PlayStation Portal provides a sleek and focused method to enjoy your PS5 games remotely with its impressive 8-inch LCD screen and DualSense wireless controller, making it an appealing option for dedicated gamers. Priced at $200, the device offers a premium experience with its 60 fps capability, although its single-purpose nature might not justify the cost for those who prefer using multi-functional devices like phones or tablets for Remote Play. Despite this, the seamless integration and exclusive features may provide enough incentive for enthusiasts seeking an enhanced, uninterrupted gaming experience at home.

This was the best purchase I have made. It allows me the ability to take my gaming experience anywhere. I was hesitant to purchase, but it was great quality.

This is not what I thought it would be. I was hoping it was a console that I can play offline but no you have to be online to play it. And also to your PS4 has to be on rest mode.

Pros
- Hardware quality is excellent
- Haptics is excellent, especially when playing games like NFS Unbound that take advantage of the haptic feedback technology
Cons
- Display is poor when compared to QLED or OLED gaming experience. Games like STEEP, which has a lot of 'whites' cannot be properly viewed on LCD screen, due to poor contrast. (Maybe changing the in game settings may work, but that would mess my display settings on PS5)
- Battery life was poor, not sure if i got a device that was more susceptible to battery drain
- Need to buy another sony wireless headset if you want to listen to audio (other options are in built speaker or cabled headphones)
The hardware is great (except display). I wish they had better display, battery and ability to connect any BT headphones)

At first I was very hesitant, but after buying it and using it for the sole purpose of playing in bed i started to enjoy it especially after the major update it had
