[edit] Specifications
- Better Wi-Fi connection
- Faster loading times by storing UMD data in temporary memory.
- Internal memory (RAM) increase from 32 MB to 64 MB
- Improved battery life due to lower power consumption, and battery
recharge over the USB data connection. However the old, higher-capacity PSP battery will still be compatible and using it will give an increased battery life, but the battery cover will not close when using the old battery due to the larger size.
- Weight has been reduced by 33%
- Unit is 19% narrower (slimmer) in thickness
- A video-out port for displaying on a TV.
- Improved responsiveness of d-pad[1] and buttons, confirmed in the
GameSpot "hands-on" review; "several GameSpot editors have noticed that the d-pad and buttons on the new PSP provide a little more tactile feedback for a better overall feel."[2]
- WiFi switch moved to the top of the console. * New UMD loading
tray design.
- Removal of the infra-red port.
- Speakers repositioned on the front of the PSP near the top of the
screen which makes it look diffrent from the 1000 system
- Memory Stick slot has been relocated
The PSP-2000 models will use the same screen as the PSP-1000 models[3].
