Amazon Resale, formerly known as Amazon Warehouse, is currently offering the PlayStation Portal in Used: Like New condition for just $156.02, shipped. This is a significant 20% off its regular retail price of $199. While a Sony warranty might not be included, you're still covered by Amazon's 30-day return policy, just as you would be with a new purchase.

The PlayStation Portal is Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory designed to enhance the PS5 experience. It resembles an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen in the center. By streaming games from your PS5, it transforms your console into a portable gaming device, offering gameplay at up to 60fps. The Portal replicates the DualSense's features, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface that serves as a touchpad substitute. For remote play outside your home, a stable, fast internet connection is essential. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; you'll need a PS5 to use it.

Update: You no longer need a PS5 to play games on the PS Portal. Sony has recently updated the Portal to allow direct streaming from its PlayStation Now cloud service, bypassing the need for a PS5. Subscribers to the premium tier of PlayStation Plus can now access 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 is a more cost-effective option than purchasing a PS5 and individual games.

It's worth noting that the PlayStation Portal isn't the only way to stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi at home. You can achieve similar functionality by using the PS Remote Play app on a mobile device or other gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, setting this up can be 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."
