My daughter is exceptionally happy!!! Yes it can be used away from home with a premium acct. so instead of logging her PS5 around, she simply brings her portal now!!

brought for my husband and teen son for Christmas. They loved it . They don't play it much now a few months later but only because life is lifing with work and school. great gift. definitely recommend for gifts.

only recently heard of this device and was super stoked to have it for stream play however you're required to have PS plus Premium which is $160 for 12moths LOL absolutely not. I'm returning it in store today.

If you want a awesome device to have next to your ps5 or ps5 pro this is it! You can use it to stream games from you console to this ps portal and the games looks great and smooth on the screen, And cloud gaming looks great and little to no input lag and with the new system update you don't even have to use your console or even have a console to use this handheld if you have ps plus! The ps portal also has great build quality and very comfortable in the hand while also having every feature on it just like the ps5 controller, And even the screen is really beautiful and the value is great also. So it does get a solid 5 stars from me i love it👍

To me it’s not worth it. My son has gotten excited about this game just for it to continue to sign him out of his dad’s account and kept having him ask us for help every second. It’s too much it’s a hassle. I didn’t do my research on this before I bought it like I usually do things and this one took a turn for my money. Now I’d just like it back.

Amazing device for what it is. I intially returned this device when it first came out as it constantly lagged or wouldnt get a strong signal. But pulled the trigger a few weeks ago hearing its been improved and it def has been! I do use ethernet now on my ps5 and better ethernet cables from my router to modem and modem to ps5 which also helps but even under wifi it perfomed much better then when it first launched. Beautiful screen, i cant say this enough. For not being a oled screen its one of the best led screens on a handheld ive experienced. Connects in a reasonable time and now you can even use it for cloud streaming without hooking it up to your ps5. It works amazing doing that too. Almost zero hiccups. A very rare slight hiccup every few hours for maybe a split second or two. Tbh the graphics that come thru look as good as the ps5 on a tv! Also very very comfortable to hold and good battery life. Many cool docking stations and designs for covers can be purchased as well. Didnt have great luck using this outside of the house however even using verizon hotspot in the city. Its a great device for couching it at home or outside when you dont want to be tied to the tv. Only buy if you have strong relianle internet or you will be dissappointed. We have spectrum home internet running 600 or more mbps.

If you were hoping the PlayStation Portal would be the true successor to the PSP or Vita, prepare for bitter disappointment. The Portal is not a standalone handheld console; it's merely a glorified remote-play accessory for your PS5, and it barely delivers on that single, limited promise. The Major Flaws: Connectivity is a Nightmare: The entire experience hinges on a flawless Wi-Fi connection, and even with robust home internet (PS5 hardwired to ethernet), the performance is inconsistent. Expect frequent stuttering, frame rate drops, and random disconnects that completely ruin the immersion, making fast-paced or competitive games unplayable due to input lag.

This is like a SUPER PSP! Love it and the gameplay looks and feels just like you’re playing the actual PS5. The graphics are sick. Even movies look awesome. Hooking up is simple all it needs is a charge. My charge lasted 2 full days of gameplay while traveling before it needed charging. This is a great way to have fun with family while traveling! Love it!

PS portal is a great purchase for less the money than a PlayStation Console. Plus you can play on the go and you have the option to connect to your PlayStation console at home and or purchase the PlayStation premium for games on the cloud. And the gaming Graphics are excellent. You even have the option to connect your portal to friends ps console to play their games. Well worth the value of $200 and under.

I brought this for my son and he really loves it because he can carry it anywhere he goes now he really don’t play his PlayStation 5 that much unless he’s in his room he takes it on the road can move all around the house and anywhere he wants to take it
