Customer Reviews

Sony does it again!
I have had my Slim and light Ceramic white for a week now.
It is excellent. The battery life is excellent even when on wi-fi mode.

I love the new RSS media feature. With a little tweaking and software on your PC (or MAC) you can feed your home media over the internet to the PSP so you can watch and listen any place you can pick up a wi-fi connection!

Downloading updates is a breeze. Just connect to your wi-fi connection and off you go!
Surfing the web is fun but a little fiddly as you need to type in the address using the cursor keys as if you are using a mobile keypad. But if you bookmark your items the first time, you dont need to type them again!

I would recommend the Media Manager for PSP from Sony as this allows you to sync your media files, bookmarks and RSS feeds from your PC (this can save hours of messy keying on the device!)

As for it being a gaming device... well it is fantastic. Just pop in the UMD and off you go! Hours of fun!

One More For History
Well I have had the PSP for about 6 months now just too see how it plans out, and it's great! hours of fun, movies, pictures, but if you get the black PSP the battery power is very low only for around 4-5 hours and you have to keep recharging it, which is the bother, and too get the internet connection which I have never been able to connect to the internet, it gets very fidgety. But none the less it's a well built design, stylish, small and long durable

Great Product - but is Amazon Joking?
The PSP is a fantastic product - I often play while travelling on business and enjoy the envious looks I receive from fellow business travellers whose journey consists of reading the FT or tapping away at their laptops.

I use it for games and movies and it is brilliant for both - though Sony restrictions on the quality of non-UMD movies is a slight frustration.

The screen is great and, although no match for the iPhone or iPod Touch, perfect for watching movies, even when more than one person is watching at the same time.

The browser of the iPhone too is better and more practical than that of the PSP, however since the iPhone as of present has no real games, the PSP is the only option for someone wanting a real all-in-one portable media and entertainment device.

But to be honest - its not my love of the PSP that spurned me to write this review but rather the Amazon pricing policy. The Amazon price is good and on par with that offered by most other online etailers.

However to reduce the price of a £129.99 product by £0.01 to £129.98 and actually emphasize that this represents a saving is surely a joke. 1p? Come on.
