Although this console is not the most advanced on the market today, it still has a very impressive set of features, both basic and advanced. Technically, it is a direct successor to the original PSP and outwardly differs from it in reduced size and a new screen, and inside — doubled (up to 64 MB) RAM. Like the original, it works with MS Duo cards and UMDs and can be used not only for games, but also as a player and for accessing

Short description:
  • Processor: MIPS R4000 (333 MHz)
  • Screen: diagonal 4.3", resolution 480x272 pixels, brightness 200 cd/m2
  • Optical drive: UMD (Universal Media Disc)
  • Wi-Fi module (both for surfing the Internet and playing together)
  • Memory cards: Memory Stick Duo

Differences from PlayStation Portable:
  • The PSP-3000 retains all the advantages of the PSP-2000 Slim & Light model, while getting a better LCD screen and a built-in microphone.
  • The new PSP-3000 is thinner and lighter than the previous model
  • The new screen will be brighter and more contrasty — this will allow you to comfortably play games, view videos and images, surf the Internet even in bright sunlight
  • The built-in microphone, in turn, will give you the ability to easily communicate with friends using Go! Messenger and Skype.
  • Another improvement is a new video output for connecting to TV. From now on, it supports the game not only through a progressive signal (480p), as it was in the PSP-2000, but also through interlaced (480i)
  • The PSP-3000 will be bundled with a variety of games including Buzz!: Master Quiz, FIFA 09 and Harry Potter, as well as a Go! Explore.
Accessories

It should be remembered that the PSP is not just a game console, but, in fact, a real pocket computer. And therefore, her accessories are appropriate. For example, if necessary, you can purchase add-ons such as a webcam or a GPS module. On the market you can find external keyboards, mice, special docking stations that turn the PSP into a portable music centre. The prefix itself can be connected not only to a computer, but also to its "big sister" — Sony PlayStation 3.

Console Features

The PSP can be used for more than just gaming. It can also serve as a compact media player (sound quality is excellent), an organizer, a GPS navigator (with the purchase of an additional GPS module) and a photo album. A huge amount of the most diverse software has been written for the console, which allows you to significantly expand its capabilities. It is also possible to update the firmware.

The set-top box is capable of working with UMD discs with a capacity of 1.8 GB. It should be remembered that films recorded in the USA on the European version of the set-top box will not work (division by zone, as in conventional DVD players). This does not apply to game discs.

Accumulator battery

PSP battery life depends largely on the game you are playing and can vary from 3 to 5 hours. You have less than 5 hours when watching movies. Well, if you use the prefix only to listen to music, then the operating time increases to 7-8 hours. If the set-top box is used very actively, then it makes sense to immediately buy an additional battery.

Graphic arts

Despite its compact size, PSP provides a high level of graphics. The prefix is equipped with a fairly large widescreen screen with an aspect ratio of 16:9. When working from the adapter, the brightness level is 200 cd / m2, when working from the battery — 180 cd / m2. Unfortunately, the screen dims a lot in the sun.
