"Save $44 on Used PlayStation Portal: Like New, Only on Amazon"

The PlayStation Portal, a handheld gaming companion designed specifically for the PS5, has always maintained its full retail price, yet you can still enjoy significant savings by opting for a pre-owned version. Amazon Resale (formerly known as Amazon Warehouse) currently offers Used: Like New condition PS Portals for just $156.02, including free shipping. This represents a notable 22% discount compared to its $199.99 MSRP. While a Sony warranty may or may not accompany the purchase, all Amazon Resale items are covered by the same 30-day return policy as new products. Be prepared for potential stock depletion, as this deal is likely to attract swift attention.

Used (Like New)

Condition Overview:

• Appearance: Functions and looks as good as new.
• Packaging: Minor damage noted during inspection.

The PS Portal, essentially an extended DualSense controller with an integrated 8-inch 1080p LCD screen, transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming hub. It streams games at up to 60fps, featuring haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface. Although it requires a stable, high-speed internet connection for optimal performance, it can also stream games from Sony’s PlayStation Now cloud service, offering access to over 120 titles, including popular exclusives, without needing a PS5. Subscribers to the premium PlayStation Plus tier gain access to this expansive library for $18 monthly, a fraction of the cost of purchasing individual games.

Note: While not a standalone device, the PS Portal provides flexibility for both local streaming and cloud-based gaming. For those looking to replicate its functionality, the PS Remote Play app on mobile devices offers similar capabilities but lacks some DualSense features.

PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy**

"The PlayStation Portal exceeded my expectations, delivering a far superior experience compared to makeshift solutions like a phone with a clip-on controller. Its ability to let me play PS5 games anywhere with reliable Wi-Fi has been transformative. Despite requiring a PS5 for full functionality, the lack of Bluetooth audio support and a web-based login mechanism remain notable drawbacks. However, for PS5 owners seeking portability, this remains the best available option until these limitations are addressed."
