      It is, the screen is OLED whereas the newer model is a standard LCD screen like the ones they use in PSPs. Newer model is slimmer and has extra battery life but that's not worth losing the OLED screen for.

          Considering it's only 45 minutes difference I disagree. I'll go with quality build and only 3+1/2 hours or so play time.

          @Where's_That_Cake:

          Personally I think the 'build' of the new model is better, feels like it has better grip and is just light enough. I wouldn't hesitate to buy the new model if I didn't already have a functional original model.

        • [Deactivated] on 24/03/2015 - 19:13

          @plmko:I thought it felt flimsy in comparison and I dislike that the screen is a separate piece unlike the OLED.

          @Where's_That_Cake:

          Each to their own, but there are advantages to separating the screen piece, for instance you don't get that smudgy gloss plastic where the buttons are also allows you to get glass screen protectors (I love me some glass!).

      • get-innocuous on 24/03/2015 - 21:46

        IPS LCD has better colour reproduction and better viewing in direct sunlight, so I think it's actually the better screen. The colours don't "pop" with hypersaturation the way they do with OLED though.

    • Employee[Deactivated] @ BIG W on 24/03/2015 - 17:40

      Although if you're planning on getting one, make sure its the older model as we did stock both the old and newer models before

      as a vita collector ( i have 5 at the moment ) i usually use the slim model since it gets me through a few days without charge (that's if i'm travelling) at home probably go for the older one.

          +1

          the OLED one looks better of course :P i found it to be more sharp + more saturated (deeper colours) maybe a little too over saturated.
          the led one is a little more 'natural' (well that's what people call it anyway)
          a guy here mentioned it was 45min difference, but i found it to be twice the battery life (OLED clocking at about 3 hours and LED to be around 6)

          @halfaznpersuasion:

          In terms of comfort..is one more comfortable than the other?

          Is OLED as good in the sun as LCD? Some screens got too much reflection/glare…

          So you recommend I should get the OLED or LCD?

        • thaikhoa on 25/03/2015 - 18:06

          @tyler.durden: The OLED is much heavier than the LCD. None of the two will let you play under the sun. OLED one is better in terms of brightness. The biggest issue of the OLED Vita is the screen will definitely has dirty spots issue when playing completely dark environment with black background.
          This photo is long exposure http://i.imgur.com/Wpwvr.jpg http://img.psx-sense.nl/images/file/img_4efca375010d3.jpg

          I would recommend you to go with the LCD Vita.

          You should be hurry if you'd go with the OLED. Someone has listed their Brand new Vita $150 for $250 on Gumtree already :D

          @tyler.durden: They are a product of the manufacturing process, it doesn't show when the screen is lit up with any kind of proper image.

        • tyler.durden on 26/03/2015 - 22:12

          @Where's_That_Cake:

          how about if the game has dark environment?

        • [Deactivated] on 26/03/2015 - 22:31

    If anyone's considering getting this or the PS Vita TV … get this. The Vita TV is crap. It barely plays any Vita games, remote play is laggy and support for it (and adding new games) stopped as soon as it was released.

    • [Deactivated] on 24/03/2015 - 19:16
      +1

      Lol, no. Remote play is fine if setup right. It plays lots of games, at least 60-70% of the catalogue. I own two Vita's and a PSTV, both are great though I only really use the PSTV for remote play on my bedroom TV which works flawlessly with zero lag. New games get added every week, publishers need to push updates for the games that are not yet white listed.

      Here's a list of hardly any Vita games that work with PSTV.
      http://www.vitaplayer.co.uk/list-of-playstation-tv-compatibl…

      • theRev on 24/03/2015 - 22:25

        Look up the reviews which talk about lag with the remote play (IGN, Kotaku, etc). Unless you're running super fast fiber optics through your house its all but useless over WIFI. Trust me; I know, and my PS4 is 15 feet away.

        Secondly, have you actually looked at the list of compatible Vita games versus Vita TV? If you had you would know that most of the games you linked have "NO" next to their name lol Games like Uncharted Golden Abyss, Fat Princess, FIFA 15, WipeOut, Ratchet & Clank, Tearaway, LittleBigPlanet, Assassin’s Creed III: Liberation, Resistance… You know, the games people actually want to play. None are supported and most of the unsupported games are from Sony? How do you figure that?

        I get your fanboyism, I love Sony myself, but you seriously cant tell people to buy a Vita TV over a Vita when its clearly the better option.

          It's not fanboyism. I'm plenty critical about Sony but Sony also recommended using Ethernet as opposed to Wi-Fi with PSTV since before the PSTV was even released.
          I get your incompetence and lack of research before buying a product, don't fun it for everyone else though.

          PSTV has to run over Wi-Fi, you have to setup a static route for it or better still (for easiest and best results) bypass your router and go straight from PS4 to network switch to PSTV.

          Yeah, I was a little disappointed (PSTV) also when certain games (uncharted) I expected to work, didn't. Lag isn't too bad from PS4 via wifi, but bad enough not to play Destiny. Looking to wire it at some point though. It's a nice little unit to travel with though.

    Went into Big W Warrawong, can't say I was impressed with what I saw unfortunately.

    There was a few drop zone boxes in the toy section with only baby rattles and blankets in them. There's a "Drop Zone" section near the office supplies section, unfortunately it's full of colouring pencils or glitter pens. Checked out the games section, couldn't see anything heavily discounted. No Drop Zone advertising or labels…Couldn't see any other Drop Zone boxes in the store.

    Either Warrawong's only got a select few items listed at "Drop Zone" prices, or they need to pull their finger out and clearly advertise ALL the items which've been reduced (I'm not saying they haven't done this, but if the staff have, the Warrawong store isn't worth going to if you're after a decent variety of "Drop Zone" sale items imo).

      Ringwood (Eastland) has none of the games and only a slim PS Vita. It has a few accessories; PS3 remote, 4gb Vita card, PS4 USB Hub all $10 each. Kmart also has nothing.

      Trials Fusion is $15 from EbGames, the $30 from Big W is more expensive than most places.
