Open Question: Which PSP should I buy?

October 12th, 2009 PSP Reviews No comments
1000 2000 3000 all have good and bad things about them. a hard decision for me. I want to buy either the 1000 or the 3000...I think? BECAUSE. I heard the 1000 is sturdy, and feels better in the hands, plus, it seems, to have better fitting thingies, like the plate the pops up to hold the game. or the memory stick. but, the 3000 has an LCD screen that is anti finger print, and is actually visible in sunlight, and let me tell you, I hate when you're in the sun and can't see crap! (cause I have the original nintendo DS -_-') however the 3000 is apparently flimsy? I'm not going rock climbing and playing video games at the same time though. What matters most to me is the screen, because I'm like a mother with a baby to my consoles. so it breaking is out of the question. so which is better? and what are the little extra things, like, one loads faster, one has more, um, ram? or, memory? sorry, I'm not sure what psp's are all about cause I have been waiting to get one. but what are the perks of each one and which is just better for someone like me, who wants a great screen! PS: PSP GO looks like shite!

1 Star Doesn’t really work
Have tried this thing several times, didn’t seem to put out enough power to even maintain my battery level on my psp let alone really charge it. Great idea, just doesn’t work that well, takes way too long even in direct sunlight to fully charge a psp.

1 Star psp dosen’t read it
this thing dosen’t work. even when it is fully charged the psp won’t even recognze it so it won’t charge AT ALL.do not waste your money on this product.

1 Star Flimsy
The case broke coming out of the package! Not well put together. I’m afraid it won’t hold up on the road, and that pretty much defeats the purpose.

4 Stars Nifty little gadget puts you ahead of the game!
We purchased this device because it seems the battery often dies when you’re nowhere near a wall to charge it, and carrying a spare battery doesn’t always help, so this was a great idea! As an added bonus the solar charger can also charge the Game Boy Advanced (at the same time!!). We were highly amused that the solar charger is basically the shell of a GBA with solar panels where the screen and controls would be. That means it fits in a standard game carry case. It’s also a fantastic idea for military members headed downrange where there’s plenty of sun but not always plenty of electrical outlets. Very economical, eco-friendly, and convenient.

4 Stars The best for everyday gameplay
I had the original Logitech case for the PSP 1000 and thought it was perfect. It provided great protection for my entire system.

Unfortunately, when I got the PSP Slim, I was out of luck. The original case was just too big and the PSP bounced around inside.

The case Sony makes looks similar to the Logitech version and is a great alternative, but is too bulky for my daily gameplay needs.

Nerf has a great case as well, but because it doesn’t cover the UMD door (so you can leave the PSP in the case at all times) my PSP picked up nicks and scratches on the door.

Finally, after a long wait, Logitech brings out the best case for my needs. It covers the entire PSP, where it fits snugly and locks tight when closed. It’s also slim enough for me to enjoy regular gameplay without having to remove the system, and the door holds itself in place regardless of how wide or narrow you open it up, which can be helpful when sunlight is a problem. It can also accommodate the larger extended life batteries that Sony has since discontinued.

The so-called customizable face leaves a bit to be desired since it basically asks you to print whatever you want and then cut it to fit between the rubber & polycarbonate. It’s not something I’m going to do since I think the case looks fine as it is.

4 Stars Great way to protect, store and veiw your PSP.
Having already owned the original Playgear Pocket for the “phat” PSP, when I bought my slim, I was clamoring for Logitech to make a version for the new PSP model.

Just like the original playgear pocket this case provides excellent protection for your PSP, the outside is clear dense plastic, and your PSP fits snuggly inside within a rubberized casing that covers both the top and bottom of the system. Additionally, you can use the Playgear Pocket as a viewing station for movies and such by simply flipping the top to the back, thus standing the system up.

Another cool aspect of the playgear pocket is that you can customize the cover to change up the look of your system. By removing the top inner rubber layer, you can place an image inside and then reinstall the rubber. Mind you, the image is one that you will have to find, print out and then cut to the shape of the cover, and in the package, Logitech supplies you with the template shape. Unfortunately it is here where I have to give the Playgear Slim its one fault. The template they give is NOT a precise fit. The lower portion of the template is not accurate and when you cut a design out using the template you will see that the lower indented areas are too short for the case, leaving some of the rubber visible. Now this is not a big fault, but its something that should not have happened and could have been avoided with some simple measuring on the part of Logitech. Im a big person on customization and looks so I had to mention this, because its really the only problem with this case.

Also be advise that this will add some weight and bulk to the PSP, so if youre looking for something really lightweight and sleek, this might not be the case for you. But if you are looking for a multifunction case that is built like a tank, then look no further

5 Stars PSP Logitech PlayGear Pocket Slim
Since I bought my PSP-Slim in June, I was using the Sony PSP Slim case. This case was bulky and it defeated the purpose of owning a Slim PSP. I just received the Logitech PlayGear Pocket Slim today and it’s great. The PSP fits well. The case “hugs” the PSP so that it doesn’t rattle or move around at all. All the necessary holes are there for the headphone/remote jack and power adapter connection. The PSP is easily playable while still in the case. I highly recommend this case for any PSP-2000 owners.

5 Stars Does Exactly What You Need It To Do
When I ordered this on Amazon, I was hoping that it wouldn’t be some sloppy redesign of the original PSP case. Well I am happy to say that this case lives up to the quality that was present in other Logitech cases from the other generations.

All of the ports have ample access room, except for the USB port on the top that requires for the PSP to be removed. Hard plastic covers the PSP from head to toe and the rubber fitment in the case cradles the PSP with no wiggle room. Logitech also sends out stencils with the case, allowing you to slip in any piece of artwork that you desire so that it is visible from the outside. The hinges are strong and they will hold the cover at whatever angle you like. When the cover is opened all the way, it acts as a stand that lets your PSP stand at a 45% angle that is good for displaying the console. The bottom of the case is also a neat little feature that exposes the “PSP” logo ring on the back of the PSP. Since I have the God of War: Red PSP, the combination of black and red go really well together.

Overall, this is a great PSP case that not only protects the PSP, but makes sure that all of your essentials are accommodated. You could definitely take this on the road with you without hesitation and I recommend it to anyone who is willing to invest in the protection of their PSP.

4 Stars okay
the case is big as the old logitech case and i feel like you can use this the psp 1000 ,but isn’t it suppose to be a psp 2000 case cause theres 2 parts in the case that have the same lenght on the left and right part of the case but one is for the fat battery to go in if you have it and the other feeling i have it is for first generation is that theres some space between the screen and the case when i close it making it move a little in the case if i drop it.
