Save $50 on Used: Like New PlayStation Portal - Amazon Price Drop
The PlayStation Portal, Sony's innovative handheld gaming accessory for the PS5, has never been discounted before, but now you can snag a used one at a great price. Amazon Resale, formerly known as Amazon Warehouse, currently offers Used: Like New condition PS Portals for just $150.23 shipped. This represents a significant 25% savings off the original retail price of $199. While a Sony warranty may not be included, Amazon Resale items come with the same 30-day return policy as new purchases. Given the popularity, we expect these units to sell out quickly.
Update: The price has dropped further to $150.23, marking the lowest price we've seen for a Used: Like New unit.

Used: Like New Condition
This unit looks and functions as if it were new, with only moderate packing damage observed during inspection.
The PS Portal resembles an extended split-pad DualSense controller with an 8-inch 1080p LCD screen at its center. It transforms your PS5 into a portable gaming device by streaming games from your console at up to 60fps. It retains all the beloved features of the DualSense, including haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and a touchscreen interface that substitutes for the touchpad. The Portal enables streaming even outside your 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 function.
Update: You no longer need a PS5 to play games on the PS Portal. Sony has introduced a feature allowing owners to stream games directly from the PlayStation Now cloud streaming service, expanding access to over 120 games like Ghost of Tsushima, Resident Evil 3 Remake, The Last of Us Part 1 Remastered, and Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales. To use this feature, you must subscribe to the highest tier of PlayStation Plus, which costs $18 a month—a more affordable option than purchasing a $500 console and individual games at $70 each.
It's worth noting that the PlayStation Portal isn't the only way to stream PS5 games over Wi-Fi within your home. You can achieve similar functionality by using the PS Remote Play app on other devices, including gaming handhelds like the Steam Deck. However, setting it up is more complicated, and you'll miss out on some DualSense 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."
