There were rumors going around saying that the battery life of the PSP 3000 is shorter than the battery life of the old PSP 2000, but according to John Koller, hardware marketing director at PlayStation, this isn’t true. With the new PSP you can game about four to six hours and watch movies for about four to five hours.

The PSP-3000 is the redesigned version of Sony’s popular PlayStation Portable. The first PSP-1000 was followed by the PSP Slim&Lite (PSP-2000) announced during E3 2007. The PSP-3000 is an even slicker version of the PSP Slim&Lite, it was announced during Sony’s Leipzig Games Convention press conference.
The PSP-3000 looks almost exactly the same like the PSP-2000 Slim&Lite, but this new version of the PlayStation Portable has a built-in microphone and a better screen. The screen of the PSP-3000 is able to resist glare, so it will work better outdoors. The built-in microphone can be used for applications like Skype for PSP or for online gaming via Infrastructure.
