    It works well as long as you have very stable and consistent WiFi at both where your ps5 is and where you are trying to use the portal it works great. As a second screen around the house definitely works well. However when you try to use it as a travel platform to play away from home it decent perform as well. It often cannot hook up to hotel WiFi if they have a log in screen and has connection problems often in my experience

    I really like this item. Holds well in the hands. Love the 1080p 8" screen. This is perfect when my kids want to watch TV and I want to play the PlayStation. I love it.

    I almost rhought about returning this the first day cause lag was so bad and i thought with my wifi6 i was good. Once i swapped my ps5 over to ethernet from wifi the portal was a lot better. As a casual gamer dad i played my ps5 less often than i do now, maybe 2-4 hours a week. Just finding time to get the main tv to myself was always an issue. With the portal i find it a lot easier to just sneak in a game even if the tv is occupied by the kids. I get to still be present but can play my favorite games. I would totally recommend this for casual gamer parents with a few extra bucks to burn.

    I mostly had been playing more cozy games laying in bed at night with my Nintendo Switch but I wanted to start playing my PS5 again. I picked this up and I’ve been so happy with it! It feels nice and looks nice and works well! I alternate my two handhelds nightly now.

    The PlayStation Portal has been one of my most favorite and best purchases I’ve had in recent years. The quality of the portals mechanics and game play is magnificent and easy to enjoy. On top of it all, the PlayStation portal is only $200, cannot beat that.

    Portable PS5 aka the Dadstation 5!

    Perfect for gaming at home while the family uses the TV. The device is the perfect add on for the core ps5 gamer who has to share tv with the family or roommates. Big screen, full style controller with rumble and haptics, portable with good battery. The best experience is achieved by ensuring you have a great wifi router (don’t use the ones that come with your ISP, get a high quality router/mesh network) and your ps5 plugged in via Ethernet. This is will Ensure minimal lag across your home. It’s becoming my favorite way to play. Wife loves that I can play in the bedroom while she sleeps or watches tv. No negatives this far. Hope they make them in different colors!

    I love the portal, I can play video games while hanging out with my family instead of sitting in a completely separate room. The only downside is being shushed when I share the progress of my ncaa player winning championships and entering the draft portal
