  • Excellent video calls, Face-tracking AI works great
  • Limited to Facebook Messenger calls, Ongoing privacy concerns, Portal+ takes up a lot of space
  • Even if we didn't have concerns about our privacy, the Facebook Portal still wouldn't be our top pick for a smart display. While its hardware is good, it lacks the wide variety of functions you get from competing smart displays, such as the Echo Show, Len...

  • The main question you have to ask yourself is whether the Portal TV is worth buying for $229 direct from Facebook when you could just use your phone, tablet or smart display to make a video call to family and friends instead.The “new normal” society chang...

  • Neat hardware, Great call quality, Clever camera tech,
  • WhatsApp needs your phone, Limited functionality,
  • The Facebook Portal is a good device for family members who want to stay in touch, as well as Facebook video-chatting die-hards - but it doesn't have much to offer outside of those walls. The camera tech is impressive and the new design is a winner, but t...

  • When it's not in use you screen your favourite photos from your smartphone or linked Facebook account on the smart display, The Story book feature shows both callers a story on screen, the primary caller's face is in the picture complete with filters that
  • You'll need subscriptions to Amazon Prime or Spotify to ask Alexa to play music from these services
  • While this smart display was a little time-consuming to set up and lacked the sound quality found on some of its competitors, the 13-megapixel tracking camera created one of the best video calling experiences we've had to date. Though it's expensive, it's...

  • Clever AI-powered pan and zoom, People tracking capabilities, Multi-microphone setup for better sound, Easy to use interface
  • Only 720p footage, Price might be a bit high
  • We can see the use for Portal TV and it seems to be a well thought-out device that will make it easy to call loved ones from the comfort of your living room.There are a few niggles with it though, such as only having 720p streaming for calls - on a large...

  • Camera tracking during calls, Turns TV into smart display, Alexa integration
  • Blurry motion at a distance, Unimproved camera quality, Filters don't scale up well
  • For home video calls through your TV – something with quite limited support elsewhere, especially after Skype shuttered its smart TV app – there's certainly a reason to get the Portal TV into your living room...

  • Interface minimaliste, Installation simple et rapide, Appels vidéos de meilleure qualité (suivi de la caméra et du son), Fonctionnalités liées au appels (mention spéciale à "Raconter une histoire"), Amazon Alexa, Objet discret
  • Très très très très peu d'applications dans Portal Apps, Aucun intérêt si vous n'utilisez ni Messenger ni WhatsApp, Prix un peu élevé
  • Le Portal TV est un produit Facebook fait pour les utilisateurs de ses services Messenger et WhatsApp. Si vous n'en faites pas partie vous pouvez donc passer votre tour. Car au-delà de ses fonctionnalités liées aux appels vidéo, le Portal TV n'a que peu d...
