Resembling an extended DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen, the PS Portal streams PS5 games at up to 60fps. It features haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen replacing the DualSense touchpad. While previously requiring a PS5, a recent update allows streaming directly from PlayStation Now (highest tier PlayStation Plus subscription required). This unlocks access to over 120 games, including titles like Ghost of Tsushima and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales.
While home Wi-Fi streaming is possible via the PS Remote Play app on other devices, the PS Portal offers a more streamlined and feature-rich experience. However, the lack of browser-based Wi-Fi login and Bluetooth audio support remain drawbacks, as noted in Seth Macy's review:
PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy:
"The PlayStation Portal surprised me; it's far superior to using a phone with a clip-on controller and works better than anticipated. I appreciate the freedom to play my PS5 anywhere with decent Wi-Fi. However, its reliance on a PS5 (unless using PlayStation Now) and the lack of browser-based Wi-Fi and Bluetooth audio are significant drawbacks. Despite these, it's currently the best solution for PlayStation Remote Play."
