Used - Like New Condition: The unit appears and functions like new, though packaging may show moderate wear from previous use.

Sony's PS Portal essentially transforms into a handheld gaming device by streaming content from your PS5 console. Featuring an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen flanked by DualSense-style controllers, the Portal replicates the full controller experience - complete with haptic feedback and adaptive triggers - while delivering gameplay at up to 60fps. The device requires a stable, high-speed internet connection for optimal performance, especially when playing outside your home network.

Originally designed solely as a PS5 companion, the Portal recently gained cloud streaming capabilities through April's beta updates. This eliminates the mandatory PS5 requirement, allowing direct access to PlayStation Now's library of 120+ titles - including major exclusives - via cloud streaming (PlayStation Plus Premium subscription required).

While alternative remote play options exist through mobile devices or competing handhelds like Steam Deck, the Portal provides the most seamless integration with PlayStation's ecosystem and maintains DualSense functionality that third-party solutions can't replicate.

PlayStation Portal Review: "The PlayStation Portal defied my initial skepticism to become one of my favorite gaming accessories. It delivers a significantly better experience than phone-based remote play solutions and handles remarkably well with stable WiFi. My only reservations stem from the lack of browser-based WiFi authentication and Bluetooth audio support - without these limitations, it would be a must-have for every PS5 owner." - Seth Macy
