The PlayStation Portal is an ideal companion for your PlayStation 5, letting you play games on the go from your console, or stream from the cloud, and while it was sold out pretty regularly at launch, it’s not only in stock but seeing a discount as part of Amazon’s Prime Day sales event.
The portable streaming device (not to be confused with a console that can play games locally) is seeing a 10% price cut to bring it to £179 from £199.99 which certainly makes it feel closer to a tempter. Even as someone with a Switch 2 and a Steam Deck, I’d love to play Destiny 2 on the go…

PlayStation Portal – White£179 (10% off) |
- US gamers can avoid paying full price by opting for a Used-Like New option, which can net you a 30% discount at checkout. That brings the console down to just $124.
The PlayStation Portal has an 8-inch LCD screen which, despite not being OLED, does a pretty good job of staying bright and easy to read in most conditions.
It’s basically got two halves of a DualSense slapped on each end, too, which means you get all the comfort of a pad you’re already familiar with.
You’ll need a decent internet connection to make the most of it, though. Sony recommends at least 5 Mbps, but you can reasonably expect better performance the faster your connection is in your home (or, indeed, whatever WiFi network you’re using to connect to your home console).
CamelCamelCamel also points out that this is the lowest price Amazon has had for the system since (you guessed it) around Prime Day last year.
So, if you’re looking to play a game on the go, or just want to borrow the telly from your family/significant other, the PlayStation Portal might well be worth a look at this price.
