The unit looks and functions as if it were brand new, though moderate packing damage was noted during inspection.

The PS Portal is Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory designed for the PS5. It resembles an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen in the center. This device transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming solution by streaming games at up to 60fps. It retains all the beloved features of the DualSense, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen that serves as a touchpad substitute. Keep in mind, the PS Portal requires a robust and fast internet connection, especially for streaming outside your home. Importantly, it's not a standalone device; you need a PS5 to use it.

Update: You no longer need a PS5 to enjoy games on the PS Portal. Sony has rolled out a new feature allowing you to stream games directly from their PlayStation Now cloud streaming service. This means Portal owners can now choose to connect to their PS5 or directly to Sony's cloud servers, accessing a library of over 120 games including titles like Ghost of Tsushima, Resident Evil 3 Remake, The Last of Us Part 1 Remastered, and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales. However, to take advantage of this, you must subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, priced at $18 per month, which is a more affordable alternative to purchasing a PS5 and individual games.

It's worth noting that you can also stream your PS5 games over Wi-Fi within your home using the PS Remote Play app on a mobile device, including other gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, this setup is more complex and misses out on some of the DualSense's unique features.

PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy:

"The PlayStation Portal is the most surprising device I've ever come away from loving after going in loaded with skepticism. It's such a better experience than using your phone with a slap-on controller, and it works so much better than I was anticipating. I really love the freedom it gives me to play my PS5 from anywhere with decent WiFi coverage, especially when the rest of my family was using the TV to (somewhat ironically) play the Switch. Bearing in mind that it's in no way a stand-alone device and 100% requires a PlayStation 5 to function at all, the biggest things keeping the Portal from being a truly amazing device are its current lack of a way to access WiFi that requires a web browser to log in, and its lack of Bluetooth support for audio. For now, it's a great device that represents the best current solution for PlayStation Remote Play, and if it weren't for those two baffling caveats, I'd call this a must-own device for every PS5 owner who enjoys playing games on handheld – or has to compete for the household TV."
