The PlayStation Portal is my favorite PS5 accessory, and it’s a shame it’s hardly ever discounted – but I’ve spotted a neat little price cut to jump on today
The PlayStation Portal is my absolute favorite PS5 accessory, and I cannot imagine living without it anymore.
In the two years since it first released, I have been able to get through so much more of my backlog thanks to its remote play capabilities, and have also greatly enjoyed getting stuck into streaming games too, as that functionality has opened up. I simply would not have played as many games or reviewed as many were it not for the Portal.
The only thing that slightly irks me about the PlayStation Portal is the stubborn way it keeps hold of its $200 / £200 price tag.
No longer, though, as you can snag a PlayStation Portal for £190 at EE (was £199). That’s the white variant, though the Midnight Black one is also at £190 if that’s more your taste.
It’s only a nine-pound discount, so why have I highlighted it with a dedicated article? At Amazon UK the white PS Portal has only been lower than £190 three times in the past year – and one of those times was for an hour on December 21! The Midnight Black variant has only ever been below £190 once too, and that was back in July.
Today’s best PlayStation Portal deal
Might this go lower over Black Friday? Maybe, But with the Portal, I also just wouldn’t be surprised if it simply held its normal price tag over the traditional sales period – which makes this price tag a little more tempting as one to just jump on and not look back from.
The PlayStation Portal has very much found its audience and niche since it came out, and by beefing out the game streaming options for PlayStation Plus Premium subscribers has offered far more than the simple (but excellent) remote play option that is at its heart.
