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

PlayStation Portal

Price: $158.70 at Amazon
Condition: Used: Like New

This device may show moderate packing damage, but it looks and functions as if it were brand new.

The PlayStation Portal, a unique accessory for the PS5, transforms your console into a portable gaming device. Designed to resemble an extended DualSense controller, it features an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen. It allows you to stream games from your PS5 at up to 60fps, utilizing the same haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and touchscreen interface as the DualSense. Note that a very stable, very fast internet connection is essential for streaming, especially when away from home. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it requires a PS5 to operate.

Update: You no longer need a PS5 to play games on the PS Portal. Sony has now enabled streaming directly from its PlayStation Now cloud service, expanding your game library to over 120 titles, including hits 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 must subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which costs $18 a month—a much more affordable option compared to buying a PS5 and individual games.

While the PlayStation Portal offers a convenient way to stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi, you can achieve similar functionality with the PS Remote Play app on other devices like the Steam Deck. However, setting it up is more complex, and you'll miss out on some DualSense 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."
