Before buying this product, please do your research about it , it’s not for everyone and as myself though this was the all new PSP or something like that , well it’s not, you can only use it if you have a PS5 with a strong WiFi connection and the both devices in the network connection or else it won’t work and no you can’t be at work or anywhere else and play it , it has to be near the ps5 … it’s more of you being on the living room watching a movie with the family and still enjoying your favorite ps5 games … that’s all

I have had the PlayStation portal for about two months now. I can honestly say that I love it. I had the backbone which I used with my phone, and this is 100 times better. The screen is large and has amazing picture quality. As large as it is, it doesn’t feel too big while playing it. I highly recommend this to anybody who wants PS five as a handheld. You have to link to your PS five to use it, unlike other handheld devices. But it is well worth it.

Love this thing. Able to play my games out of state which is awesome! The inclusion of the cloud gaming also has made this a must buy in my book!

Portal good not great

Is good not great, since it depends mostly on your upload speed of your internet. Try using good ethernet cable on the ps5 for better connection. If using wifi try putting your primary bandwidth on your ps5 to the 5gtz . Also let your ps5 run for like 2 minutes before connecting, when i connect the portal immediately after turning on the game the connection was static while using wifi. Overall good accessory to have.

I love this system! It’s so much better than using my iPad and mobile app. The screen is excellent quality and it’s well made! I’ve really enjoyed it. Only thing that would make it better would be to be able to connect any type of Bluetooth headphones

Amazing Little Device

This is a pretty amazing little device. My teen sons love them and found they can be played almost anywhere with a Wifi connection, with one son playing his on his phone hotspot while in a friends car. (It lagged, but it worked!) The screen is good sized and very clear. My only concern is if the joysticks start drifting later, there is probably no quick fix. We caught these on sale, so I doubt I would have paid full price for them.

The PS Portal is certainly not for everyone. I think it only appeals to a small variety of people. Remote Play seems to be only popular with hardcore Playstation gamers. I got it because my parents watch a lot of TV, sometimes they binge watch shows for hours and I get bored and sometimes want to play a game or if i'm playing something that is inappropriate or something not of their tastes I would play the PS Portal on that specific game. When it works it works, but I recommend connecting it to a 5G network as I ended up doing, not a 2 GHZ network. While the overall functions are good it's a shame the Streaming services seem to be blocked and that would have been a great selling point to stream shows on the PS Portal as it has a really great screen and very useful when you need it. It isn't perfect but there is certainly room for improvement.
