yes it's true. the double lens PS3 started with the 40GB models. if you are a proud owner of the 40GB PS3 or malaysian 80GB PS3, you have a double lens PS3.

Yeah, I heard this too. First hand from a supplier (not sure if he's BS-ing me)
They say some shops take out the original lens and put in a cheaper lens and that's why they can sell the PS3 at a very low price sweat.gif

that's why you don't buy ps3 from places like sungai wang. those shops there won't think twice about conning you.

laugh.gif This is the first time I heard of PS3 dual-lens. Is this true? If it is, I have the dual-lens too. So, does this means I can pop in sparrowed DVD without fear for the lens dying? (You know I'm joking rite) tongue.gif

Yaa laa..I've got two PS3...

1) First issue 60GB PS3 HK model...my wife watched all season of friends and also numerous DVD...all upscaled...and more than a year ago...no issue till today...oh and all sparrow dvds...and some I downloaded the iso and burned to dvd-r and dvd-rw

2) 80GB US Version Metal Gear Bundle....also the same thing...been having it for more than 6 mths...all types of sparrow and dvd--r and dvd-rw....also without hesitation..

no lense kaput case yet...not talking big but..I seriously do not thing that's the case....the only case I think is ear and tear and also nasib as it's the most sensitive part of the console...so just

Oh and the disc that you play is only good if the condition is good...if you put in ori DVD but super scratchy and beded...into the rive and force the drive to play the damn disc...this will also break it...so think before insertng any disc...and make sure it's a good condition disc...

Please remember guys....over in the US..the sparrow dvd issue us not as rampant as us here in MY....so they only play ori DVD over there but there are still cases of lense goes kaput....they never mention sparrow dvd as the cause pun...


p/s: Anyone knoe what is the model number for metal gear bundle US 80 GB PS3?

My PS3 is not detecting any disc also, so i bring it back to the shop and ask them to claim warranty.
I was playing Assasin's Creed while it hangs.. LOL.. (Like some users here also have this problem.. damn that cd..)

They told me that they will be sending it to Singapore and I only have to pay for shipping and he say is will cost me around RM300 +/- rclxub.gif
I bought it during August this year and now this problem..

Is there anything that I can do to repair this console cheaper? Might wanna sell it off after warranty because takut rosak lagi and pay another 300 bucks again.. rclxub.gif

Please tell me what I can do.. I'm confused now..

Thanks in advance! smile.gif

CECHH onwards all comes with dual laser already which includes the Sony Malaysia official model CECHK06.

If scared of lens kaput, here's what I did, all my movie, anime and mp3 collection is in my PC which is over 2 terabyte, so I install a media streaming software. The PS3 auto detect the streaming server and I can browse my entire collection, I can play any movie I want over WIFI or over LAN.

I use TVersity. Freeware and easy to setup. If your PC and WIFI router supports UPnP and u switch it on. Your PS3 will auto detect the media server.

Download and read more from HERE


Added on October 7, 2008, 3:23 pmOh ya, another point is that the connectors and other boards for the single laser and dual laser is totally different. So u guys no need to worry about shops swapping the dual laser with the single laser module.

A not so good news is that users with older model (single laser) also cannot upgrade to the newer dual laser module. wink.gif

I use Windows Media Player 11 (WM11) which is bundled with XP for streaming stuffs from my pc to my ps3 downstairs using wifi. Works very well I have to say, nice to watch pictures, listen to mp3s and watch movies.
