Sony's preferred provid
HD video disappointing
Games are pricey
Surfing the net is clunky
The price to pay for a handheld that offers console-quality graphics is a high cost. The PlayStation Vita costs up to £279 for a 3G version - just as much as a fully-equipped home console
More in fact. You could purchase an Xbox 360 for the price of a PlayStation Vita and still have enough to purchase a game. The memory cards

Game loading times can be painful
Battery life is just 3 hours for gameplay (although better than the 3DS)
Position of analogue sticks (you have to bend your thumbs round to use them)
