The PlayStation Portal has never been discounted, but savvy shoppers can still snag a deal. Amazon Resale, formerly known as Amazon Warehouse, currently offers the PlayStation Portal in Used: Like New condition for just $148, including shipping. Normally priced at $199 new, this represents a significant 26% savings. While a Sony warranty might not be included, Amazon Resale items come with the same reassuring 30-day return policy as new products. Given the popularity of this deal, we anticipate these units will 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.

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 in the center. It transforms your PS5 into a gaming handheld, allowing you to stream games from your console 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. The Portal can stream your games even when you're away from 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 operate.
Excitingly, Sony has expanded the capabilities of the PS Portal. You can now stream games directly from Sony's PlayStation Now cloud streaming service without needing a PS5. By connecting the Portal to Sony’s cloud servers, you gain access to a vast 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. Note that this feature requires a subscription to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, priced at $18 per month, a much more affordable option than purchasing a PS5 and individual games.
While the PlayStation Portal offers a unique way to stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi within your home, it's not the only option. 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 is more complex, and you'll miss out on some of the DualSense's advanced 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."
