The PlayStation Portal, Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory for the PS5, is now available at a discounted price through Amazon Resale. You can snag a Used: Like New condition PS Portal for just $148, down from its original retail price of $199, marking a significant 26% savings. Please note that the price has recently dropped even further to $150.23, the lowest we've seen for a unit in this condition. Although a Sony warranty may not be included, Amazon Resale items are covered by the same 30-day return policy as new purchases. Given its popularity, we anticipate these units will sell out quickly.
Make sure to select the "Save with Used - Like New" option when purchasing.

The unit looks and functions as if it were new, with only moderate packing damage observed during inspection.
The PlayStation Portal essentially transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device by streaming games directly from your console at up to 60fps. It features an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen nestled between what looks like an extended split-pad DualSense controller. It retains all the beloved features of the DualSense, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen that replaces the traditional touchpad. While the Portal can stream games even when you're away from home, it requires a very stable and fast internet connection. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; you'll need a PS5 to use it.
Excitingly, Sony has recently updated the PlayStation Portal to allow streaming directly from its PlayStation Now cloud service, eliminating the need for a PS5. With this new feature, accessible after subscribing to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, you can enjoy 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. At $18 a month, this option is much more cost-effective than purchasing a PS5 and individual games.
It's worth noting that you can achieve similar functionality within your home using the PS Remote Play app on other devices, such as 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."
