The PlayStation Portal is a unique device that transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming machine. With its design resembling an extended split-pad DualSense controller and an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen, it allows you to stream games from your PS5 at up to 60fps. It retains all the beloved features of the DualSense controller, such as haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface in place of the touchpad. To enjoy the PS Portal outside your home, you'll need a very stable and fast internet connection. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it requires a PS5 to function.
Update: You no longer need a PS5 to play games on the PS Portal. Sony has now enabled the device to stream games directly from its PlayStation Now cloud streaming service. This means that without a PS5, you can still dive into 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 need to be subscribed to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which costs $18 a month—a more budget-friendly option than purchasing a PS5 and additional games.
It's worth noting that the PS Portal isn't the only way to stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi at home. You can achieve similar functionality by using the PS Remote Play app on a mobile device, including other gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, this method is more complex to set up and doesn't include all the DualSense features.
PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy**
"The PlayStation Portal has exceeded my expectations in the most delightful way. Initially skeptical, I found it to be a much better experience than using a phone with an attached controller. The freedom to play my PS5 games from anywhere with a decent WiFi signal is invaluable, especially when the TV is occupied by other family members playing the Switch. While it's not a standalone device and completely reliant on a PS5, the Portal's potential is slightly hampered by its lack of support for WiFi logins requiring a web browser and its absence of Bluetooth audio support. Despite these limitations, it's the best solution for PlayStation Remote Play currently available, and a must-own for PS5 owners who enjoy handheld gaming or share a TV."
