  • Abstract:  In July, Sony revealed the PSP-3000 at the 2008 Leipzig Games Convention in Germany, and the new handheld looks to build on the success of the slimmed-down PSP-2000 that was announced just under a year ago. This annual update has proved to be the produ...

  • External mic, feels less plasticky, colour space options
  • Mic isn’t fantastic
  • If you’re a heavy PSP user with wads of cash to blow, need the external mic or want to play games on a standard TV, the PSP 3000 is the sleeker, visually crisper twin to last year’s model. If you’re an original PSP owner and skipped the...

  • Abstract:  Much like what Sony did with the PSP-2000, the PSP-3000 features a slew of small but still noteworthy upgrades that may have some current owners looking to upgrade. The first thing you will notice about the Sony PSP-3000 is the gorgeous improvements to th...

  • Great, antiglare screen.
  • Screen can go fuzzy at times. Not enough new features.
  • No one can accuse the PSP-3000 of lacking power. Lacking in new features, though, is a different matter....

  • Bright, colourful screen, superb user interface, excellent mobile gaming, increasingly broad range of features
  • Still limited in content options and capacity next to some alternatives, although they're not games consoles

  • Decent build quality and screen. Still thinner. Still lighter
  • Awkward controls. Video codec support still hobbled, making it an awkward media player
  • Still a great media and gaming machine, but not the comprehensive remake we were after ...

  • Nintendo may have mastered touch tech but Sony still delivers the eye-poppingest on-screen action. The latest PSP’s anti-glare display has more colours, half the response time and five times the contrast ratio of its predecessor, giving you punchy...
  • The pumped-up screen occasionally shows annoying scan lines and doesn’t help the mediocre battery life (though switching off Wi-Fi will). Tweaking the TV Out to support older, non-Hi-Def tellies is hardly fair either – how can we justify that...
  • This is still the most powerful mobile gamer out there, with kick-ass titles like Patapon and FIFA 09 proving there’s life in the old handheld yet. Best offers for the Sony PSP-3000Amazon Marketplace £149.99 Marshall Ward £169.00 Sony PSP-...

  • Light, slim enclosure; better colour reproduction; built-in Skype; deep line-up of great game titles with better graphics than Nintendo DS games
  • UMD load times slow; screen isn't completely glare-free and is still a magnet for fingerprints; no built-in storage
  • With its impressive game library, lower price and expanded feature set, it's certainly a much better deal than the original PSP -- and it's even better than the PSP 2000. While its media and online functions won't necessarily replace a dedicated AV de...
