Initially the PSP wasn't working well on my home wifi, but after upgrading to a mesh system and connecting the PS5 directly to a router it works very well. I've been out of state and played it without issue so definitely worth the purchase!

I have owned this product before, it was a fun product to have. The Wi-Fi can always be a tricky situation, it is fun to have when you have great service and just want to play your PS games. I do wish I could have better access to my downloaded games.

I love the portal. As long as you have decent internet connected to your PS5 and decent wifi wherever the portal is connected it works very well. I play 30 miles from home regularly with minimal lag even online gaming works with very little to no lag. And now that you don't even need a ps5 just a premium plus subscription makes this device all the better.

Really love the controls and the design overall of the device, however, my Internet is not reliable enough to consistently hold a signal with my PS five. I found that streaming games over the cloud was actually better than remote play. However, remote play was the primary reason I bought it. For some reason, the remote play app on my Lenovo Legion go S actually performance is way more consistently than this device did. I’m not sure why it could just come down to the Wi-Fi chip being more current. Still I would recommend this device if you have a really solid mesh network in your home.

I searched high and low for the portal for my husband. He LOVES it. He refers to it as the “dad station.” It is a bit large but he doesn’t mind. He enjoys being able to play his PS5 in any room as opposed to the basement.

I was reluctant in getting this device since you can basically do the same thing with any mobile device - but there’s something about having a dedicated unit with familiar dual sense controls/feedback that makes it worth while. I’ve been using my iPad pro paired with a dual sense for remote play and this portal is much better. I’m clearing a lot of my backlog with this thing. Games look awesome, haptic feedbak is just like the dualsense. I would love it if it was more than just a ‘remote play’ device or if you could pair any set of earbuds, but those small complaints aside, this thing rocks. There’s finally enough availability so if you’re on the fence (like I was) so go get yours!

The PlayStation Portal offers a convenient way to stream PS5 games, but it has room for improvement. Adding Bluetooth support for third-party headsets would greatly enhance audio flexibility. Local game streaming without relying solely on Wi-Fi would improve portability. Better battery life and support for cloud gaming services would also increase its overall value. Nice product but definetly areas that could be better
