PlayStation Portal (Used: Like New) for Under $160

Used: Like New Condition

This device, despite moderate packing damage, looks and functions as if it were new. The PS Portal is essentially an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen, enabling you to stream games from your PS5 at up to 60fps. It retains the DualSense's haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and touchscreen interface. However, a stable and fast internet connection is essential for streaming games, especially outside your home. Note that the PS Portal is not 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 feature allowing owners to stream games directly from the PlayStation Now cloud streaming service, giving access to over 120 titles including 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, you must subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which costs $18 a month—a more cost-effective option than purchasing a PS5 and individual games.

Although the PS Portal is ideal for streaming PS5 games, you can achieve similar functionality using the PS Remote Play app on other devices like the Steam Deck. However, setting this up is more complex, and you'll miss out on some DualSense 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."
