Really nice looking item
I purchased this as a present which I’m sure will be very well received

Okay but not the best
It’s good when it works! You need an exceptional connection in order to use this and a subscription unless you just want to connect it to the ps5 which is not what I wanted, if you’re playing a game that require accurate shooting this will lag and cause you to lose. It just lags a lot and I have a good connection when I use portal on my laptop it’s amazing on the tv amazing on my phone amazing but on this portal it’s just laggy. Not worth £200 beat of second hand seeing as it’s just a piece of plastic with a small screen that isn’t even that great quality Overall if you have subscription and play games that don’t require much and are always away from ps5 and have money to spare then yes buy it

Fantastic portal
I got this on Saturday and I cant reccomend it enough Although you do need the top PS PLUS package to fully enjoy streaming
Fish, 35 - 44
Great device and needed if you’re sharing a PS5
Works great, and as long as you’ve a strong internet connection the streaming works flawlessly. A must have if you share a console and have ps plus premium, well worth it.

Ps portal
Bought this for use at work still getting used to it but overall happy bit disappointed some games aren’t able to stream although still a good selection to choose from

Great... When it works.
Latency and connectivity issues are present. My internet is more than capable I suppose it is streaming very high quantities of data but it should be able to cope better than this..unable to determine whether the issue is the network or the console as other applications like netflix prime video etc are capable for comfortably streaming 4K HD. That said it's great when it works. I tend to leave it plugged in charging as the battery is not very good..maybe one or two hours max on battery alone so OK for short bursts but better when plugged in..the screen is sharp rich and detailed. This is where the product excels. Sound is average could be louder otherwise a very immersive experience.

Dad must have. But crampy hands
Bought it 6 months ago, perfect after having 2 kids i can play games in bed. It would be higher if it didnt cramp my hands so much as the weight overtime can be too much for me. Worth buying

No — you can’t play a game while someone watches a film on the same PS5. The Portal mirrors whatever is happening on your PS5.
Thank you for using Q & A.
Hello Ad.
PlayStation Portal Remote Player - Midnight Black:
You do not need PlayStation Plus Premium to play disc games on the Portal—just use Remote Play with your PS5. Premium is only required for standalone cloud streaming of digital-only games.
Thank you for using Q & A.
No just a really good broadband connection if you have premium you can stream directly to the portal.
Hello Kik,
PlayStation Portal Remote Player
The PlayStation Portal runs at 60fps.
Thanks for using Q&A.
PS Portal can connect to any Playstation account without owning a PS5. You dont need to download games or own a PS5. The games stream from the cloud like Netflix streams movies or, OPTIONALLY, from your own PS5 if you choose.
You can buy PS5 games from the Playstation store on your phone etc. These will be available to play on your Portal. Not all PS5 games support cloud streaming. Cloud streaming is a 13.50 per month PS Plus Premium service which includes a library of over 200 games.
Hello there
