Used: Like New Condition
Looks and functions like new. Minor packaging damage noted.

Resembling an extended DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen, the PS Portal streams PS5 games at up to 60fps, mirroring DualSense features like haptic feedback and adaptive triggers. While previously requiring a PS5, a recent update allows streaming directly from PlayStation Now, granting access to over 120 games (requires the highest PlayStation Plus tier).

It's important to note that the PS Portal isn't the only way to stream PS5 games. The PS Remote Play app offers similar functionality, though setup is more complex and some DualSense features may be lost.

PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy:

"The PlayStation Portal surprised me. It's far superior to using a phone with an attachable controller and works better than anticipated. I appreciate the freedom to play my PS5 anywhere with decent Wi-Fi. However, the lack of browser-based Wi-Fi access and Bluetooth audio support are significant drawbacks. Despite these issues, it's currently the best solution for PlayStation Remote Play."

DualSense Controllers Also on Sale

Lenovo offers PlayStation 5 DualSense controllers (Sterling Silver, Volcanic Red, Cobalt Blue) for $54 with free shipping using code "PLAY5". This likely represents the lowest price for these metallic controllers in a while.
