    I was very skeptical about getting a PlayStation Portal but I am very impressed at how good it runs! At home it runs so smooth without any lag or connectivity issues, I have also been using it at work during my breaks and it surprisingly runs good there! I highly recommended the Portal if as a companion for your PS5 and make sure to have it connected to your router wired so you can get the best connectivity and performance!

    Awesome handheld device! It’s a convenient way to play my ps5 away from where it’s placed as long as there’s a WiFi connection. Comes in handy when I want to hop on while laying in bed or if the tv is already in use. Only downside is the need for a WiFi connection to work but other than that it definitely comes in clutch. Highly recommend

    Awesome unit love the fact that when I’m away from home it comes in very handy as long as I have a strong internet connection but now with the new streaming capabilities even if I can’t connect to my PS5 I can still game on the go

    I was hesitant about this product. However I have used it almost daily since I got it. I have alot of digital games and that is how you make the most of this product. The graphics are incredible and I have played online. Online gameplay drains the battery life quicker but for the most part you can get a solid amount of time gaming, online or otherwise! Highly recommend if you want to game and not have to haul your PS5 around. 10 out 10 must try again!!

    The Playstation Portal is one of those ideas that sound horrible on paper but a masterpiece in execution. Especially if you’re a busy person who just wants to comfortably lay in bed after a hard days work and play your favorite Playstation games. Personally, I have been enjoying Rise of the Ronin. I have fiber internet 1GB speeds so I can not speak for any other speeds. I have a backbone and it is not the same experience. A great quality of life device overall.

    Better than Remote Play

    The portal works way better than the remote play app. Remote Play works fine on some platforms, I have no issues on android or on a Nintendo switch (homebrew) But to play on a small screen phone is not ideal and playing on a tablet you need a controller until blackbone comes up with a version for tablets. This simply works flawless ly at home where I use it most. Like I said until there are good options for tablets this portal is the best solution yet.

    I was skeptical of this device at first but its seriously amazing. I have really great wifi at home but even then i run an ethernet cable to the back of my ps5 for a stronger connection and with my hotspot i can literally game on my ps5 through streaming from anywhere. Gameplay has been running flawlessly. I live in PA and tested it from New York on my hotspot. I am very happy with this purchase.

    I love this thing! If you have kids and a wife that tell you to turn the game off because no one wants to watch you play and you don’t want to isolate yourself in a cave. Then this is the solution you’ve been looking for. I play my PS5 games on the couch right next to them. Play online Fortnite or regular campaigns! I don’t feel any lag whatsoever. Additionally you can play it anywhere as long as you have a good wifi connection and your PS5 is in rest mode. 10/10 would buy again!!!

    As someone who loves my Switch because of the ease of switching between playing on the TV and playing in bed (and also being a Dad that frequently shares the screen with 3 little girls), this device solved a lot of problems I had with my PS5. I can now allow the girls to watch or play their Switch on the TV while also playing the games I love. I also love the ability to being it to bed and play next to my wife while she plays Animal Crossing. There’s no better feeling.

    It’s an amazing device to have if you like to game on the go, feels great in my hands, and it performs great on my iPhone 16’s hotspot, I bought a travel router that connects to my phones internet to go along with it, haven’t had any problems playing call of duty multiplayer
