A PSP Go clone that goes for only $90? You can bet your knickers there’s going to be a catch. First of all, the clone is bigger, significantly bigger. Second, the plastic just isn’t the same. The buttons on the PXP-2000 are clickety, the slide-out action lacking in snap. Screen resolution and screen size seem OK, [...]

We rarely hear of a firmware update for a cheap Chinese PMP. Benss has recently announced one for the iCool BX-96 gamer with good reason. The BX-96 looks sleek, despite the PSP looks. The new firmware update, which can be uploaded from Benss site, gives the BX-96 a new 3D user interface. My Chinese is [...]

The cheapest and arguably most sensible PSP clone we’ve written about has a successor. The JXD1000 was a little lacking in a few things like an antenna, which the JXD2000 has. We’re not sure what it’s meant for, though, since the store specs doesn’t mention TV reception. The specs does include an improved FM tuner [...]

Yesterday, we brought you the PXP-2000, which is actually a clone of the new PSP Go despite its name. Almost the same PSP Go hardware, with different gaming focus–NES emulation. For only $83.99 it’s worth thinking about. But, wait a minute. What if retailers slashed a few bucks off the $250 PSP Go MSRP. Would [...]

The PSP Go clone above may get you in hot water at Sony, but between just you and me, I think I’d prefer the $84 PXP-2000 over the $250 PSP Go. But you’re thinking, for that amount of money, surely I won’t be getting too much. You’d be wrong. For one thing, besides supporting an entire [...]

Sony has made the PSP Go, their latest gaming handheld, in stores a couple of days ago and the reception is a less than lukewarm. You know you’re in trouble when what’s supposed to be a sleeker successor of your hot-selling device is called “a fail” by one of the most respected tech blogs in [...]

I’m not sure if $90 is a cheap PSP clone for you but it sure is the cheapest I’ve heard about. It’s got good specs like 720p support, direct playback for DVD not to mention multiple video format support (RMVB/RM, AVI, VOB, DAT, MPG, FLV), a 2.0 MP camera and the all important games support, [...]

China is very fond of portable gamers, especially those with NES/ SNES emulation, but this new mystery gamer from Chuwi seems likely to blast the portable gamer industry wide open. Is this Chuwi’s PSP-killer. There’s talk about 720p support and up to 64-bit game support. There’s even a possibility that the new Chuwi gamer will [...]

Even the Chinese cloners are steering clear of the PSP Go. Venus has a new all-around PMP that coincidentally resembles the PlayStation Portable hardware. The JXD300 supports GBA, NES games as well as various video and music files like RMVB, RM, AVI, MPG, FLV and playing DVDs and VCD files directly is not out of [...]

No one is pre-ordering the PSP go in the United kingdom. People in the U.K. are not too keen in going UMD-less, or maybe they just find the retail price of the go, which is £130 pricier than the old PSP, too prohibitive.
