Meta Portal TV - Big Screen Smart Video Calling for Group Calls on Your TV

Nice sound, but the screen stopped working after 4 months. It seems it is a known issue with the screen controller, but because it happens so far after the purchase you end up with an expensive paper weight.

I want use it mainly as a digital frame as its cheaper than most real digital frame. The connection effort need for uploading and display photos is high, for example, it not only require to install a APP for uploading, but after uploading, it need to be RESTART before I can see any of the photos be displayed on the screen. The design is also on the bulky side, not sleek or good looking enough.

Screen is great, Alexa integration is great. It does try to get you to call people using Facebook messenger every time which is annoying but it’s great for WhatsApp, zoom or teams calls with adaptive camera.

Works great to FaceTime with grandkids and daughter and son in law in NC as we are In AK.

Nice features but lacking some basic things that would use practical.

Works good for the most part but is terrible with noise isolation. Practically unusable in a noisy environment with kids etc.

This item is using super old features. Not practical at all. -2 stars for this lol

We gave a portal to my mother-in-law. She has a facebook account but also has memory problems with her age and was unable to remember her password. We reset it and got logged in but she has to go through more security measures to continue. She cannot get into her account. We created a new Facebook account so we could get the Portal setup and Facebook closed down her new account, for some other security reasons. Facebook is making this extremely difficult to work with and there is no phone number to call. We are going to return the Portal and get something else to communicate with her. This is Facebooks second attempt at video conference devices and I hope this one fails too.

Camera quality isn’t great. Camera does not move to the person who is talking in the room which is the sole reason I got it. I wanted it to track my little one playing in the room when grand parents call :(
