PlayStation Portal (Used: Like New) for Under $160
PlayStation Portal
Original Price: $199.99
Discount: 21%
Sale Price: $158.70 at Amazon
Condition: Used: Like New
The unit looks and functions as if it were brand new, with only moderate packing damage noted during inspection.
The PS Portal transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device, featuring an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen integrated into a design reminiscent of an extended split-pad DualSense controller. It supports streaming games from your PS5 at up to 60fps and includes all the beloved DualSense features such as haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface in place of the touchpad. However, keep in mind that the PS Portal requires a very stable and fast internet connection to stream games, even when you're away from home. It's not a standalone device; a PS5 is necessary for its operation.
Update: You no longer need a PS5 to enjoy games on the PS Portal. Sony has introduced a feature allowing owners to stream games directly from their PlayStation Now cloud service. This opens up 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. To access this feature, you'll need to subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which costs $18 per month—a more budget-friendly option than purchasing a PS5 and individual games.
While the PS Portal is an excellent choice for streaming PS5 games, it's not the only option. You can also use the PS Remote Play app on other devices, including the Steam Deck. However, setting this up is more complex, and you may miss 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."
