Sony PSP

Advantages: Clear screen, lots of features, easy to use and a large range of games and movies.
Disadvantages: Can't be used with strong light and quite easy to damage/scratch

...The Sony PSP is a gaming device made for on the go gamers. There is a very wide range of games you can play on the PSP, and these mainly consist of previous PlayStation 2 games such as Grand Theft Auto Vice City and other classic games. The PSP is set out like a PlayStation controller but with a 4.3 inch screen in the middle. The console itself is a great size and does not weight very much. The screen also is very good - it delivers a clear picture and depending on the game, not bad graphics. The games are stored on a UMD disk which stands for Universal Media Disks which consist of 1.8GB. As well as buying games on the UMD disks, you can also buy popular films such as Spiderman and watch them on the go. Not only is the PSP a great gaming and video playback device, but it can also be used as an MP3 player, a photo viewer and an internet...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

magical PSP

Advantages: Super features
Disadvantages: Graphics-average

...Introduction The PSP (playstation portable) is a unique games console, which allows you to walk about with it anywhere. Also, it includes music, videos, gaming, photos and internet just like the PS3. WOW! It has a very stylish body, which has an analog stick to move your people/players move easier. This has recently been updated to look more sleek, thin and most of all cooool! The newly released games are still included for the PSP and the quality is astounding for such a small device. Another feature is that you can buy a certain camera to put on the PSP so you can snap away anywhere, without having to buy a really expensive one. The quality of the pic is exceptional, since the device was not made for such an advanced feature. If you and your mate have the same game you can also play against each other on that game. The feature is...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

The best portable on the market.

Advantages: The look. The portability. The games. The films. The accessories. Pretty much the whole package.
Disadvantages: Not out in the UK yet!!!! Battery life. Loading times

...OK OK OK. How can I review a product that hasn't been released in the UK? I bought it in Japan, I'm lucky - I know. Lots of people want the Sony PSP. I can see why! There is SO MUCH you can do with the Sony PSP - it's quite unbelievable. My unit is in Japanese - but I'm fortunate to be able to read and understand Japanese - so I can provide an accurate review. The Sony PSP is undoubtedly one of 2005's most anticipated gadgets. Why? What can it do? What is it? It's a slick looking, portable device, tha is a BRILLIANT games machine, and is also a music player, and a UMD (more on UMD later) player. It also has Wi-Fi for playing games against other PSP owners (thrilling - playing multiplayer games is one of the great joys of playing video games - what can be more fun than sitting in a sushi bar at 1am playing Ridge Racer...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

The future of portable media centers *AAA*

Advantages: Quality screen.Movies,Video, MP3, Games, Internet all in 1 package
Disadvantages: Expensive Umd movies, No Keyboard

...called PSP Video Express to convert my movies to MPG4 so they will play on the PSP. On a 1gb Pro Duo card i can fit to good quality movies. Music stores your music, that simple. Photos store your photos, this is so straight forward. Settings is so you can change the PSP defaults. I have the Virtual Tennis Game which is great and Ridge Racer wear your earphones while playing, the sound effects sound brill. The only thing that will stop the PSP from becoming the greatest handheld is Sony. They just don't want to to give out information to third partys so they can build new things to add on like a keyboard which will make the internet so much easier but that has fallen to the way side for this very reason. Sat Nav,TV and radio are just a few things that might be coming to the PSP lets hope so. PSP whats it got :- Great...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

Sony PSP

Advantages: Great portable media player. Ideal for Games & Movies
Disadvantages: Not so good as an MP3 player as a little bulky.

...This is an ideal portable console/MP3 Player and MP4 Player for all. Since having the PSP I no longer find myself bored whilst on the train to work. I generally use it for gaming and watching movies. The gameplay/graphics are awesome for such a small device. The added bonus of the PSP is that you can switch it off and when you switch it back on again it allows you to play where you left off even if this is half way through a football match. As for movie capability, this is straight forward. As long as you have a large enough memory card, you can load MP4 files and watch movies on the go with the PSP. I don't really use the PSP as an MP3 player as it's a little too bulky for the pocket. I don't think this is the main benefit of the PSP but the option's there. I would recommend this to anyone who's travelling a lot and it...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) Slim & Lite

PSP Slim

Advantages: Light, thinner and faster than the old PSP, with some nifty features.
Disadvantages: No infrared, battery life lower than usual PSP's.

...The PSP Slim is a smaller and slimmer version of the original, hence the name. Now with a third less weight, at 189g and about four-fifths the thickness (19mm). It costs around the same as the old one, £130. The new weight is immediately noticeable as soon as you hold the PSP in your hand. It's so light that you might think that it's missing something. Sony was able to slim down the battery size while maintaining the 5hr standard PSP time. The speakers have gone on the front, the wifi switch is now on the top to stop turning WLAN off and the UMD drive is spring loaded. The display remains the same, but the slim includes a video output that will let the PSP connect to a TV. Sony has doubled the built-in memory RAM from 32MB to 64MB, and the new PSP will also be able to speed up game load times with extra memory. The PSP slim...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP) Slim & Lite

The PSP Slim

Advantages: Portable eassy to carry,
Disadvantages: Read Review

...Let me clear this up... The PSP Slim does not have a touch screen. it is essentially the old PSP with a few a few minor changes.These are the changes: It can store game data in the cache so the PSP doesn't consistently have to access the UMD, which speeds up load times. The UMD drive is no longer the springloaded type, and is now like a drawer. The memory stick panel is now a pull-out area. The Slim has video out, and and transmit video to a TV. Games appear in a letterbox format. The Slim has a modified earphone jack, to enable video out. USB charging is now possible. It takes about two hours, 20 minutes to charge with AC and five with USB The first units are sold with firmware 3.60. It does not have a built-in camera, or a printer, or an extra analog stick, or FlashDrive compatibility or xray or any other crap that you may...

PSP is still best portable game console

Advantages: Graphics,sound,internet,radio(and other features)
Disadvantages: none

...I have bought a PSP fat(red) as soon as it came out. I didn't buy it for the games as i already owned a PC and PS2 but for the WiFi and portable music/video player. I bought it for £200 on ebay(new) and was very staisfied when it arrived. i connected it to my PC and found that it was very easy to use. I mainly used it on plane- and car journeys . Now i am still using the psp for watching movies, listening to music, surfing the web and from time to time playing a racing game on it. About two weeks ago i have bought the new Nintendo DSi and found that even though it is newer the psp still has better graghics and features( eg. radio demo downloads music WiFi etc). The best thing about the PSP is its internet browser. You can open any website, download movies and videos and even chat with friends on facebook and msn. The battery holds...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

Playstation Portable - The PSP

Advantages: Great Graphics, Fun and stylish, can hold upto 500+ MP3'S
Disadvantages: High Price, Fewer game choice, Few small problems

...FIRSTLY... First off the PSP is the best handheld console out there at the moment. Mine rarely leaves my side as it can play music, store pictures, play games, surf the internet wirelessly, play movies and many more things. So if you are determined to own a hand held console the PSP is the right choice to make...If you have the money. PRICE The price of the PSP and its accessories have dropped alot since the inital release so now is a good time to get one. When the PSP was launced just over a year ago now it was around £180-£250 depending on how many extras you wanted. The Memory cards have also come down in price, almost by half (The 1GB ((gigabyte) memory card was about £80 - £100 but is now around £50)) as have the UMD movies. GAMEPLAY There are many UMD videos avaliable for the PSP with more titles on the way so there...

Review of Sony PlayStation Portable (PSP)

Casio Calculator

Advantages: Good Price, Does that it says it will, Solar powered
Disadvantages: None that i can think of

...I bought this calculator at my local woolworths as i was after a scientific calculator and one that was cheap(i paid under £10 for this one which seemed a good price). The calculator is made by Casio which are a well known brand for making anything from calculators to TV's . The dimensions are 84x155x12mm and it is a light too which is a bonus. The keys are large enough for most people and all the writing is clear on and above the keys. This scientific calculator with has 249 functions (164 scientific functions) - including statistic functions. It is primarily aimed at secondary school student but i reckon it will be fine for almost any function unless you need the functions of a graphic calculator It is solar powered so it doesn't require any batteries in order to function however as with all solar powered products,you just...
