"Save $50 on Like New PlayStation Portal at Amazon - New Price Drop!"

The PlayStation Portal, Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory for the PS5, has never been discounted at retail, but savvy gamers can now snag a used one at a significant discount. Amazon Resale (formerly Amazon Warehouse) is currently offering the PlayStation Portal in Used: Like New condition for just $150.23, shipped. This is a remarkable 25% off its original retail price of $199. While a Sony warranty may not be included, rest assured that Amazon Resale items come with the same 30-day return policy as new purchases. Given the popularity of this deal, stock is expected to sell out quickly.

Update: The price has now dropped to $150.23, marking the lowest price we've seen for a Used: Like New unit.

Used: Like New Condition

Looks and functions as if it were new. Moderate packing damage observed during inspection.

The PS Portal resembles an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen seamlessly integrated in the center. It transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming powerhouse, allowing you to stream games at up to 60fps. The controller retains all the features of the DualSense, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface that substitutes for the DualSense's touchpad. While the Portal enables streaming from outside your home, a very stable and fast internet connection is crucial. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it requires a PS5 to function.

Update: You no longer need a PS5 to enjoy gaming on the PS Portal. Sony has rolled out a feature that allows owners to stream games directly from its PlayStation Now cloud streaming service. This means you can access 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, without needing a PS5. To take advantage of this, you must subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which at $18 a month, offers a much more budget-friendly alternative to purchasing a $500 console and additional games.

While the PlayStation Portal is ideal for streaming PS5 games over Wi-Fi, it's worth noting that you can achieve similar functionality by downloading the PS Remote Play app on your mobile device or other gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, setting this up is more complex, and you might 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."
