If you've been eyeing the PlayStation Portal but hesitated due to its price, now's your chance to snag a deal. Amazon Resale, formerly known as Amazon Warehouse, is currently offering Used: Like New condition PS Portals for just $150.23, shipped. That's a significant 25% off the original $199 retail price. While a Sony warranty might not be included, you're still covered by Amazon's 30-day return policy, just as you would be with a new purchase. Given the popularity of this deal, we anticipate these units will sell out quickly.
Update: The price has now dropped to $150.23, marking the lowest we've seen for a Used: Like New unit.

The PlayStation Portal, Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory for the PS5, resembles an extended DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen seamlessly integrated in the middle. It transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device, allowing you to stream games from your console at up to 60fps. The controller retains all the beloved features of the DualSense, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface in lieu of the traditional touchpad. For those who venture outside, the Portal can stream games as long as you're connected to a stable, fast internet connection. Remember, the PS Portal isn't a standalone device; it requires a PS5 to operate.
Update: You no longer need a PS5 to enjoy games on the PS Portal. Sony has introduced a groundbreaking feature allowing Portal owners to stream games directly from the PlayStation Now cloud streaming service. This means you can dive into a library of over 120 games, including hits 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, you'll need to subscribe to the premium tier of PlayStation Plus for $18 a month—a far more appealing option than purchasing a $500 console and additional games.
While the PlayStation Portal is a top choice for streaming PS5 games over Wi-Fi at home, it's worth noting 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'll miss out on some of the DualSense's unique features.
PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy**
"The PlayStation Portal has pleasantly surprised me, turning my skepticism into admiration. It offers a superior experience compared to using a phone with a controller attachment, and it performs far better than expected. The freedom to play my PS5 games from anywhere with decent WiFi is invaluable, especially when my family occupies the TV with the Switch. However, it's essential to remember that the Portal is not a standalone device; it needs a PlayStation 5 to function. The device's potential is slightly hindered by its lack of WiFi access that requires a web browser and the absence of Bluetooth audio support. Despite these limitations, it remains the best current solution for PlayStation Remote Play, and I'd highly recommend it to PS5 owners who crave handheld gaming or need to share the household TV."
