Remote Play is great
Now has some built-in storage
Sony has made some great choices in redesigning its portable games console. It’s 20 per cent slimmer and 15 per cent lighter
Which doesn’t sound like much
But it feels much more portable and comfortable overall as a result. The console also comes with 1GB of internal memory - not enough for storing downloaded games
But enough to at least store your saved games if you’re mostly gaming on cartri
Slimmer and lighter
Comfortable to hold
Extra long battery
1GB of internal memory
Thinner
Micro USB charging
1GB storage
Remote Play with PS4 is great
It's a wellbuilt piece of kit that will appeal to many gamers
As long as they have the spare cash to afford it.
Lighter and slimmer
Longer battery life
Better access to touchscreen and touch pad
Refined design
Slimmer and lighter than the original
The editors didn't like
Display has been downgraded
Connection to PlayStation 4 not up to scratch
Controls for DualShock based PS4 games are tricky
Costly peripherals
Diminished visual capabilities
Flimsy build
1GB still isn't enough
Feels less premium than original
The biggest change to the PS Vita Slim is the screen
Which is now a standard (and cheaper) LCD display
Whereas the older model had a gorgeous OLED panel with fantastic contrast. The picture quality on the Slim suffers as a result
Blacks aren’t as deep
Fast motion isn’t as smooth
And colours don’t pop as well as they did on the original Vita. Unlike the original Vita
There’s also no 3G model
Expensive
LCD not OLED
LCD rather than OLED screen
No 3G version in UK
The screen has been downgraded from the original PS Vita
But the Slim's biggest problem might be finding a market

Slimmer and lighter, Comfortable to hold, Extra long battery, 1GB of internal memory
Expensive, LCD not OLED
The PS Vita Slim is everything we hoped it would be. Our fears about the step down in screen were overly pessimistic: there is a noticeable difference, yes, but with the size and resolution still the same, the reduction in quality is not enough to be a hu...

The PlayStation Vita Slim PCH-2000 is noticeably thinner and lighter, while the new LCD screen is -- thankfully -- not a huge step back from the original OLED panel. A microUSB charging port is a welcome addition, while in terms of raw power, this is stil
Sony's proprietary memory cards are costly. Compared with portable gaming on a smart phone or tablet, Vita games are still very expensive, and battery life -- while slightly improved -- is still unspectacular
The slimmed-down Sony PlayStation Vita doesn't reinvent portable gaming, but it's a nice refinement of the portable PlayStation platform that comes at a great price for US gamers....

Lighter, more ergonomic design, Screen is actually more natural, Remote Play is great, Now has some built-in storage
1GB still isn't enough, Feels less premium than original
Despite a slight cheapening of materials, the Vita Slim is undeniably an improvement over the outgoing original. It's comfier to hold, it lasts longer, it no longer relies on proprietary cables and the screen is, to our eyes, a surprise improvement. There...

Abstract: El PlayStation Vita Slim, conocido también como Vita 2000, saldrá en Reino Unido el 7 de febrero por un precio estimado de £180, es decir unas £50 menos que el Vita original, cuando salió al mercado por primera vez. Por el momento, Sony no ha confirmado u...
Abstract: Европейские геймеры наконец дождались выхода в продажу последней и самой тонкой модели портативной игровой консоли от компании Sony. Напомним, что на японском рынке PS Vita Slim появилась еще в октябре прошлого года под индексом PCH-2000. Гаджет, как и сл...
тоньше и легче оригинальной PS Vita, удобно долго держать в руках, улучшилось время автономной работы, появился 1 Гбайт постоянной памяти
высокая стоимость
Улучшения в PS Vita Slim обошлись без больших жертв. Основной камень преткновения − цена, особенно учитывая, что у PS Vita нет такого же арсенала игр, как у Nintendo 3DS. Однако можно ожидать, что Sony догонит конкурента. Особое внимание на эту портативн...
Lättare,Tunnare,Mikro-USB-laddning,1 GB lagring,Fjärrspel med PS4 är fantastiskt
LCD snarare än OLED-skärm,Ingen 3G-version i Storbritannien
PS Vita Slim beskrivs bäst som ersättare för den nu två år gamla Vita. För det är vad det är, inte så mycket en modell för uppgraderare. Det finns vissa förändringar, inte nödvändigtvis alla för det positiva, men Slim är inte en översyn av Vita-konceptet...
Sony Playstation 4 har mycket att ge när det gäller funktioner. Men Remote Play är utan tvekan den bästa, efter själva spelen förstås. Jämfört med Smart Glass hos Xbox och Wii Us gamepadkontroll så vinner Remote Play med hästlängder. När funktionen utanno...
