The PlayStation Portal, while never before discounted, now offers savings on pre-owned models. Amazon Resale currently lists Used: Like New PS Portals for $158.70 with shipping included—a significant 20% discount off the $199 retail price. While warranty inclusion isn't guaranteed, Amazon Resale's 30-day return policy applies. High demand suggests quick sell-out potential.

Resembling an extended DualSense controller with an integrated 8-inch 1080p LCD screen, the PS Portal transforms your PS5 into a handheld gaming device, streaming games at up to 60fps. Mirroring the DualSense's haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and touchscreen interface (replacing the touchpad), the Portal enables remote gameplay. While previously requiring a stable, high-speed internet connection for remote play, a noteworthy update allows streaming directly from PlayStation Now, eliminating the PS5 requirement. Access to over 120 games, including titles like *Ghost of Tsushima* and *Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales*, is now available to PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers ($18/month).
It's important to note that the PS Portal isn't the only option for PS5 remote play. The PS Remote Play app on mobile devices or handhelds like the Steam Deck offers similar functionality, though setup is more complex and some DualSense features may be lost.
PlayStation Portal Review by Seth Macy:
"The PlayStation Portal surprised me; it's far superior to using a phone with an attached controller and exceeded expectations. The freedom to play my PS5 anywhere with decent Wi-Fi is fantastic. However, the lack of browser-based Wi-Fi access and Bluetooth audio support are significant drawbacks. Despite these issues, it’s currently the best solution for PlayStation Remote Play. If not for those caveats, it would be a must-have for any PS5 owner who enjoys handheld gaming."
DualSense controllers are also on sale
Lenovo offers PlayStation 5 DualSense controllers (Sterling Silver, Volcanic Red, or Cobalt Blue) for $54 with free shipping, using code "PLAY5". This represents a potentially last chance for this price, especially for metallic colorways.
