Industrial Design review: PSP in a world of entertainment by Reyjohn Caerlang


The PlayStation portable or PSP, is a handheld game console developed by Sony corporation with the help of Sony computer entertainment. The system was first released in Japan on December 12,2004 as the part of the seventh generation of video games. PSP became most powerful system when launched.

Sony began in the wake of world war 2 in 1946. Masaru Ibuka started an electronics shop in a department building in Tokyo Japan. Sony Corporation is the business unit and the parent company of a Sony group. Which is engaged in business through four segments? These make Sony one of the most comprehensive entertainment companies in the world.

PSP is nice gadget, it is good for all. It is for all ages I mean. The specification was really good. The high end graphics really get my attention. For me, it was invented to make us happy in a world of entertainment. The PlayStation portable refers as the major mobile entertainment at the time.

The capacity of the main memory of a PSP is 32 MB with 333 MHZ DDR SDRAM. While the storage of a CPU is 33 MHZ MIPS. In order us to play the games, watching videos, and listening music properly.

Then the application have multimedia capabilities such as its video player, TV tuner, and the digital distribution of universal media disc or UMD. It is also have a PSP system software for the operating system . which made PSP better than others.
Next is the speaker or the audio itself. It had built in stereo speakers,3D sound and Multi Audio Channel are both good on a unit. It also have 3.5 mm headphone jack and well function microphones for the better sound.

The type of battery which PSP have,is Li-on battery. It is removable with 1200,2000,3000 mAh. And 3.6 V DC 1800 mAh upgradeable. It is also a long life battery, the maximum of time in charging is 2-3 hours for the good condition of it.
While the display on the monitor is perfectly good for the great viewing because of its 480×272 pixels with 16,777,210 colors and 16.9 wide screen LCD.

Lastly is the cost. Based on my research, the total cost of PlayStation portable is rounded 19,800 to 24,800 pesos. It depends of what kind of PSP you want. Well, for me it is affordable when we look back the good specification. The price is quietly good for having a new great device and useful entertaining gadget.

My recommendations as a consumer, the gadget must be water proof,having an online services, involving high speed connectivity if possible. Then giving dual layer storage capacity, shock resistant and unique disc ID's on a same price.

I'll give them a highest score, 10 stars over 10, for the good specification of a PSP, for the inspiring history, for the good quality of Sony, and for having the need and want of each individual in a world of entertainment.
