The PlayStation Portal has never been offered at a discount before, but you can now save on a pre-owned unit. Amazon Resale, formerly known as Amazon Warehouse, currently offers the PlayStation Portal in "Used: Like New" condition for just $156.02, including shipping. The original retail price for a new unit is $199, making this a significant 20% savings. While a Sony warranty might not be included, Amazon Resale items are covered by the same 30-day return policy as new purchases. Given its popularity, we expect this deal to sell out quickly.
Make sure to select the "Save with Used - Like New" option

The item looks and functions as if it were brand new, though there may be moderate packing damage noted during inspection.
The PS Portal, Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory for the PS5, resembles an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen integrated into the middle. It transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device by streaming games from your console at up to 60fps. The controller retains the DualSense's features, such as haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen that replaces the traditional touchpad. It's perfect for playing outside your home, provided you have access to a **very stable and fast** internet connection. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it requires a PS5 to function.
Update: You no longer need a PS5 to play games on the PS Portal. Sony has introduced a new feature allowing owners to stream games directly from its PlayStation Now cloud streaming service. This means you can now choose to connect your Portal to either your 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, you must subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which at $18 a month, offers a more cost-effective alternative to purchasing a PS5 and individual games.
It's worth noting that the PlayStation Portal isn't the only way to stream your PS5 games over Wi-Fi within your home. You can achieve similar functionality by downloading the PS Remote Play app on a mobile device, including other gaming 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 a surprisingly delightful device that I initially approached with skepticism but ended up loving. It offers a significantly better experience than using a phone with an attached controller and performs much better than expected. I appreciate the freedom to play my PS5 games from anywhere with decent Wi-Fi coverage, particularly when the rest of my family occupies the TV with the Switch. Despite its dependence on a PS5 and some limitations, like the lack of WiFi access requiring a web browser login and no Bluetooth audio support, it remains the best current solution for PlayStation Remote Play. If not for these caveats, I would consider it a must-own for every PS5 owner who enjoys handheld gaming or competes for the household TV."
