Slim is out, Brite is in: more PSP-3000 vs PSP-2000 comparison pics

PSP-3000: Piano Black, White, Silver - Image 1


Eeny-meeny-minee-mo. Think you can pick out which of these are PSP Slims and which are PSP Brites? Following the strawberry comparison photos we found the other week, we now have a whole bulk load of side-by-side shots of the PSP-3000 and PSP-2000 from Famitsu today.

As you may all know, the PSP-3000 is everything the Slim is (in terms of physical dimensions), but with A) a brighter/sharper screen due to its higher contrast ratio, and B) a microphone at the bottom center of the face. After seeing more comparison photos though, we can now add more differences to the list:

C) the PSP-3000 has rounder/smoother edges on the left and right sides of the PSP unit,
D) the back has a thinner circle circumscribing the PSP logo, and
E) as already seen in the previous strawberry shot, the switching of the Sony logo from the right side of the screen to the left


Say hello to the future of the PSP! With exception of the first photo below, all images have the PSP-3000 on top, PSP-2000 below. Look at those jellybeans! And to borrow the description from Famtisu, human skin now actually looks "healthier". Click the thumbs for an enlarged view (make sure the page has full loaded first though)!

The following pics (from GameWatch) also show the top, bottom, and side comparisons of the Ceramic White and Ice Silver models for the PSP-3000 and -2000, as well as a screen comparison (from ITmedia) of what the two models look like in the dark:
