Facebook Portal Plus - Smart Video Calling 15.6” Touch Screen Display with Alexa - Black

We love our Portal to spend time with our family that is out of state. I have used Story Time for our granddaughter. Only one concern, we had a Portal+ that only lasted 18 months. A lot of money for only 18 months use. However, we are hoping that it was a fluke and this one lasts for a longer time. We gave the 10” Portals as gifts and they have lasted for a few years.

Its a nice one but the apps that you rwad that could be used on it you can at this time

Visually nice on the countertop. Sound is decent. Picture quality is good. Really can’t do too much with it other than use the apps loaded (or go to the web and pull up from there, sometimes). Mine is very glitchy with getting CBS News to come on. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn’t … just hangs on a blank, dark screen. Glad that when I did decide to give this a try, I bought it when it dropped to $99 briefly back in September. Definitely not worth more than $100, if that. I’d rather go with another Amazon Show 10 (or wait for the new Show that’s due out soon).

Really impressive. Easy to use for my 75 year old parents, excellent quality, and the AI in the camera allows them all to be in the room and get on screen! Love it

One of the best product in a sense of video calling. Amazing video quality big screen and best thing it covers you as needed. If you are sitting with family it covers complete family and if your children moving around it focus them specially and also keep moving the camera where they go. My mother was happy to see all of the faces in single screen and even can see the whole room with just one device. It can be connected with Facebook and WhatsApp calling. I am not sure about others. But apps are very few in this device which I don’t need though. Spotify , Pandora ,Alexa , and portal app is integrated. It can be used as a photo frame too. Wow I love it and hope you will love it too.

I have a podcast show and it would be a great add to be able to use restream and/or streamyard. Portal plus does not show popup to grant access to camera and microphone. If Facebook Portal plus update their browser to be able to use restream and/or streamyard that would be amazing. I havent used Alexa yet and the touchscreen is a little slow to respond.

It is easy to set up

The device functionality is actually pretty cool, when it works. But be prepared - it’s terrible in a mid-range WiFi area. You basically need it to sit right next to your router, which limits where you can actually use it. We placed ours in our kitchen, only one room away from our office where the router is, and all day long kept hearing pulsing sounds from the Portal as it disconnected and reconnected to the network. At first, Portal’s customer service was responsive and helpful, until I sent them a video of the problem and they handed me to one of the “technical experts” who basically repeated the same troubleshooting process as their frontline staff. Subpar product with subpar customer service. Wouldn’t buy again.

Love that it has a big screen. Best part of all its features is that as I walk around the room camera follows me. I plan to buy a second one for kitchen later.

Wowww es increíble lo súper recomiendo para las video llamadas grupales
