5.0 out of 5 stars The "bright" PSP...a bright idea!, 1 Nov 2009
By GizmoGeek (Raunheim, Germany) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Sony PSP 3000 Series Slim and Lite Handheld Console (White) (Video Game)
There are very few new features in this as compared to the previous one: A built-in mic and a better screen.
Otherwise, this is exactly identical in terms of technical specifications to the older generation PSP

Built-in mic means two things:
a) you can skype (also built-in!) etc. any time
b) You can use regular headphones and don't need to buy the special PSP-headset anymore.

There was some concerns about the 'interlacing' lines on the screen and youtube is full of videos that highlight this....and say this is bad and so on.
This is so not true!
To be honest, during regular gameplay you won't even notice the lines...I only noticed them a few times when I was specifically looking for them and not concentrating on the game.

The screen is a lot brighter and colors richer (I compared with my roomie's..he has the old one)

If you are wondering if you should buy this PSP, the choice is really very simple:

1. If you already have a PSP-2000 (a.k.a. Slim&Lite) then you don't really need to, because this isn't much of an upgrade except for the built-in Mic and brighter screen.

2. If you don't have a PSP yet and looking to get one for the first time, this is the one to get!

4.0 out of 5 stars Really good, 10 April 2009
By DudleyH (West Mids United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Sony PSP 3000 Series Slim and Lite Handheld Console (Silver) (Video Game)
First - when you buy a PSP, you MUST buy a memory stick to go with it. Sony selling the console without one is like selling a car without tyres.

The PSP is what it says - slim and light. The controls feel nice to the touch and the screen is excellent. The sound via the built is speakers is very tinny. Through decent headphones - it's fine.

I bought mine after buying the Play TV module for my PS3. Using 'remote play' this works really well allowing you to stream video from the PS3 to PSP via your wireless network. You can stream direct from the PS3 to the PSP but you need to be in the same room to get a reliable connection which seems to defeat the point. You can also stream from your PSP through the Internet, but I found that the remote switch off didn't always work. Imagine taking the PSP on holiday to link up to your PS3 and returing home to find the console had been switched on for a fortnight!

The games are either PS One or specific to PSP. If you buy a PS One game you can download it to both the PSP and PS3 and play it on both.

A built in Skype phone, Internet radio, Internet browser, photo viewer and more all add to the fun.

One gripe - the power cord for recharging is way too short.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good little gadget, 13 May 2009
By B. Sidebottom "bribos" (England) - See all my reviews

Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: Sony PSP 3000 Series Slim and Lite Handheld Console (Silver) (Video Game)
This version of the psp is great. It has a bright, detailed screen and decent sound. One thing that should be mentioned is that it doesn't come with a memory stick, and one is needed to save games - cannot save games until one is purchased. I would recommend this product, but don't forget to getemory stick pro duo.
