The PlayStation Portal, Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory for the PS5, resembles an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen. It transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device by streaming games directly from your console at up to 60fps. The Portal retains the same features as the DualSense, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface that substitutes for the DualSense's touchpad. It's worth noting that the device requires a stable, fast internet connection for streaming games, even when you're away from home. However, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it's designed strictly as a remote player for the PlayStation 5, necessitating a PS5 for use.

Update: You no longer need a PS5 to enjoy gaming on the PS Portal. Sony has introduced a feature allowing owners to stream games directly from its PlayStation Now cloud streaming service, bypassing the need for a PS5 console. This means Portal users can now choose to connect either to their PS5 or directly to Sony's cloud servers, accessing 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 utilize this feature, a subscription to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus is required, which costs $18 a month—a more affordable option than purchasing a $500 console plus individual games.

While the PlayStation Portal offers a convenient way to stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi, it's not the only option. You can achieve similar functionality by using the PS Remote Play app on mobile devices or other handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, setting this up is more complex, and you'll 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."
