Works great if your TV is being used by someone and you wanna play your console that its plugged into. Also great if you are a Premium PS Plus Subscriber as the Portal allows you to play games without even being connected to remote play. I hear more features are coming in 2025 so it'll be me more like a standalone console. So Id say its worth the buy in the future. I use mine alot

I thought the layout was neat but it is very static looking while playing and it has trouble connecting to the PlayStation sometimes and I can’t take it with me in the car to play so those aren’t the best. It’s also kind of hard to aim as well. Overall they could do a lot of improvements but it’s still an awesome item.

I ultimately returned it because it made me motion sick and I just didn’t use it as much as I thought I would. Works best for turn-based games due to infrequent but still present latency. Even with great home internet and uninterrupted internet connection, a split-second delay can really derail some games (racing in GT, etc). A friend of mine has one and experiences the latency as well but only plays turn-based games on it so he loves his. To each their own.

I was very concerned after buying this product and looking at all of the 1 star reviews a lot of them either not receiving the product or the device being faulty. I can confirm that I bought my portal for $200 and it came sealed and new no problems here!

I’m glad I purchased this at the time I did. If I bought it before the update, I would’ve returned it. But now it’s amazing! Just make sure you have great WiFi. Other than that, I love it. Bought me a hard shell case, going on a cruise next month this will be perfect

Best investment ever my wife thoroughly enjoys playing it and the most uplifting part is that you can take it with you wherever you go as long as you have a Wi-Fi or hotspot connection you can indulge in any game that brings you joy the only thing you need to purchase is PlayStation plus overall my wife derives immense pleasure from it

I like it because I thought I can play my own games on it but then I realized that's not what it was for what I didn't like about it it's when my daughter told me I can just buy a controller and stream the game for my tablet so I did not need it and that's what I'm doing now

It's amazing. It definitely needs a case that helps with grip but when u get one its amazing love the cloud streams and the seamless connection on remote play when playing all my games on my ps5 and all the amazing games in the PS Plus catalog. *PS Plus premium subscription required to be able to stream games from the Playstation catalog*

I got the Portal despite my reservations that it would be a mediocre product because I had recently been in accident and was going to be on mandatory bedrest for two months and I wanted something to pass the time that wasn't just more reading (which I do love) or watching Netflix or browsing the internet. I just wanted to be able to play my games even though I felt it was overpriced and I was worried about performance. But.. I was pleasantly surprised. It works really well. I have an internet connection that when speed tested usually hits around 150-200mbps download and 75-150 mbps upload. It claims to only need 15mbps. Maybe that's true, but I'd doubt it. I have near flawless performance all the time though unless I start downloading something to the PS5. It's essentially unusable when you're downloading a game. So if you setup a download, you may as well turn it off for a while. It even runs fine when my SO or I are also watching Netflix or they're playing Valorant or we're playing PS5 games together online on the same connection. The device feels good, looks great and runs well. I'm actually really pleased with it and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to remote play their PS5 in the best, most comfortable way.

It's a wonderful addition to my ps. I can move around the house and continue my game regardless of what room I'm in. The beta streaming library works wonderfully and gets new titles added weekly. The only downside is it requires a very strong wifi signal for remote play. I still highly recommend getting one if you can. All the features of a standard ps5 controller with a fantastic screen.
