If you're eager to grab a PlayStation Portal without paying full price, you're in luck. Amazon Resale, formerly known as Amazon Warehouse, is currently offering the PS Portal in Used: Like New condition for just $158.70, including shipping. This is a fantastic 20% off its regular retail price of $199. While the inclusion of a Sony warranty varies, you're covered by Amazon's 30-day return policy, similar to new purchases. Given the popularity of the PS Portal, we anticipate these units will sell out quickly.

Despite moderate packing damage observed during inspection, this PS Portal looks and functions as if it were new.
Sony's PlayStation Portal is designed as a handheld gaming accessory for the PS5 console, resembling an extended DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen integrated into the center. It enables you to stream games from your PS5 at up to 60fps, complete with all the DualSense features like haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen that serves as a substitute for the touchpad. To use the Portal outside your home, you'll need a very stable and fast internet connection. Remember, the PS Portal is not a standalone device; it requires a PS5 to function.
Update: Exciting news for PS Portal users! You no longer need a PS5 to enjoy gaming on the go. Sony has now enabled direct streaming from its PlayStation Now cloud service, providing access to 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 take advantage of this feature, you'll need to subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, costing $18 per month—a more budget-friendly option than purchasing a PS5 and additional games.
It's worth noting that the PlayStation Portal isn't your only option for streaming 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."
