QUOTE(Gurdian @ Dec 27 2007, 12:24 PM) prolly gonna get flamed for this, but i'll ask anyway wats the difference with 3.71 firmware for Slim PSP and Fat PSP as far as I know, Slim 3.71 can't play certain homebrews or something? What are the things lacking in the Slim 3.71 firmware compared to the fat one? Pardon the n00bie question. The firmware is same for both PSP Fat and Slim, but you cannot run kernel 1.50 on PSP Slim which some old homebrews requires to run properly.

AFAIK, most of the popular homebrew application has been recompiled to work on PSP Slim. PS1 emulator works fine on both PSP Fat & PSP Slim.

Hello everyone. I have decided to buy a unit of PSP Slim after a comparison with NDSL.  First and foremost, please pardon my ignorance for some of my questions here regarding PSPS.  I am sorry if my questions are already repeated for numerous times here.  My first question will be how is the battery life of Slim over the Fat? I have done researches from online, some said Slim has better battery life but some said no.  Second question: What is the earphones port for Slim? Is it the normal 3.5mm jack head?  Hope you all can help me on this. These two issues are my current doubts for Slim.  If no problem, I'll be joining the PSP community in this January.

PSP Slim comes with a smaller capacity battery (1200 MAh) compared to PSP Fat (1800 MAh), but battery life are about the same due to PSP Slim's improved power consumption. You can get extended battery life if you use the PSP Fat's battery on the PSP Slim. 2, Yes, it's 3.5mm jack head.

Okay, I will just charge the battery since I heard it takes approximately of an hour time to get it fully charged? Fat's battery on Slim?  Yeah, hope I can get it on my hands once my exam finish on 2nd.

The batt life is even shrinking if running UMD
