PlayStation Portal (Used: Like New) for Under $160

PlayStation Portal

Original Price: $199.99
Discounted Price: $158.70 at Amazon
Condition: Used: Like New

This item looks and functions as if it were new, with only moderate packing damage noted during inspection.

The PlayStation Portal transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device, featuring an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen embedded in a design reminiscent of an extended DualSense controller. It offers seamless streaming of your PS5 games at up to 60fps, complete with the DualSense's haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen that takes the place of the traditional touchpad. For those on the go, the Portal supports streaming over a robust and fast internet connection, but remember, it's not a standalone unit—you'll need a PS5 to make it work.

Update: No PS5 Required for Gaming on the PS Portal

Sony has recently rolled out a game-changing update, allowing PS Portal users to tap into PlayStation Now's cloud streaming service. This means you can now enjoy over 120 titles, including heavy hitters like Ghost of Tsushima, Resident Evil 3 Remake, The Last of Us Part 1 Remastered, and Marvel's Spider-Man: Miles Morales, without needing a PS5. To access this feature, a subscription to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus is required, but at $18 a month, it's a cost-effective alternative to purchasing a PS5 and individual games.

It's worth noting that while the PlayStation Portal is a fantastic tool for streaming PS5 games over Wi-Fi within your home, you can achieve similar results using the PS Remote Play app on other devices, such as the Steam Deck. However, setting this up can be more complex, and you might 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."
