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

The PlayStation Portal, a handheld gaming accessory for the PS5, resembles an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen integrated in the middle. It transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device, allowing you to stream games from your console at up to 60fps. The controller retains the DualSense's features like haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen that substitutes for the DualSense's touchpad. You can use it outside your home, provided you have a stable and fast internet connection. However, remember that the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it's strictly a remote player for the PlayStation 5, requiring a PS5 to operate.

**Update:** You no longer need a PS5 to play games on the PS Portal. Sony has introduced a feature allowing owners to stream games directly from the PlayStation Now cloud streaming service, eliminating the need for a console. With this update, Portal users can connect either to their PS5 or to Sony’s cloud servers, granting access to 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. Note that you'll need to subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, but at $18 a month, it's a more affordable alternative to purchasing a $500 console and additional games.

While the PlayStation Portal offers a unique way to stream your PS5 games over Wi-Fi within your home, you can achieve similar functionality by using the PS Remote Play app on a mobile device or other gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, setting it up can be more complex, and you may miss out on some of the DualSense's features.

PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy**

"The PlayStation Portal has turned out to be the most pleasantly surprising device I've tested. Initially skeptical, I found it to be a far superior experience than using a phone with an attached controller. It seamlessly works better than I expected, offering the freedom to play my PS5 games from anywhere with decent WiFi coverage. It's particularly useful when the household TV is occupied by others playing on the Switch. Remember, though, it's not a standalone device; it requires a PlayStation 5 to function. The main drawbacks are the lack of WiFi access that requires a web browser login and the absence of Bluetooth audio support. Without these limitations, the Portal would be a must-own for every PS5 owner interested in handheld gaming or those competing for the TV."
