Ipod Touch or PSP? email this discussion to a friend?

prettyjacq (14)3 months ago

My husband and I are planning to buy either an Ipod Touch or a Sony PSP. Right now, we haven't decided yet which one to buy. We can only afford one. Anybody who can help me figure out what to choose between the two?

If you like to play games and listen to music on the go, then the PSP is the way to go. if you just wamt music, then the IPOD. But you can do so much more with the PSP.

I love playing games and watching videos. I'm not that knowledgeable on the use and specifications of both gadgets. I've just started reading reviews. I'll consider your suggestion. Thank you!

It really depends on what you want to do with it.
The PSP is definitely the best for games and can also play music and videos, but it doesn't have an internal memory, meaning that you have to buy extra memory cards if you put a lot of music/videos on it. It also has integrated speakers. They're not great, but the iTouch doesn't have any.
The iTouch has an internal memory larger than the PSP's memory card, so you can have more on it. It is also smaller, so it's more convenient to use as a MP3 player. But iTunes, necessary to use the iPod, can be intimidating the first time you use it, and not everyone likes to use it even when familiar with it.


prettyjacq (14)  3 months ago

Thank you for citing the advantages and disadvantages of both gadgets. I'm still confused what to buy. If only we could buy both*sigh*


Huan762 (21)  3 months ago

Sorry if I couldn't help you make a decision.
Another thing I forgot: I'm not sure for the iTouch, but you can use internet on a PSP. It's not really that great, BUT you can also download games that way. Downloaded games are cheaper than if you buy them in the box, but there's still the problem of the memory card. I have no idea how much memory a game needs.
But on the other side, PSP games are more expensive than music either way. But if you like videogames, you won't really stop on that point...
If you're not a big gamer, you can have some simple games on the iTouch too, though you can't really compare them to the quality games you can have on the PSP.
Just ask yourself, are you gonna use it for a lot of music and videos with a few simple games, or a lot of quality games, some music and just a few videos? You should also calculate how much it would cost you for each considering the extra memory, games, accessories, etc. Price is an important factor, right?


prettyjacq (14)  3 months ago

Thanks again for the info. I believe both can be used for internet through wi-fi.
I think I'm more inclined to buying PSP than iTouch since I really love playing games and I'm not that much into playing MP3s. My next problem would probably be what PSP color to buy haha!


Huan762 (21)  3 months ago

Well, it's a matter of tastes, I can't really help you with that haha... But I'd say go classic, go black! It's just a personal preference though. The blue one doesn't look bad either.


prettyjacq (14)  3 months ago

I actually want the lilac one. But I guess it's only available for the lower version of PSP. I also like the pearl white. Kinda neat looking!


Huan762 (21)  3 months ago

Lilac, do you mean the Hannah Montana purple? I love that color too! But well, everyone around me would know it's a Hanna Montana edition, so...
For a girl it's not a problem though.


Huan762 (21)  3 months ago

Oh and I forgot... The Hannah Montana edition is a PSP 3000, it's the latest. Well, if you don't count the PSP Go, wich looks really weird in my opinion...


prettyjacq (14)  3 months ago

Yes, I'm pertaining to the Hannah Montana special edition. There's also the Soul Calibur special edition. But sad to say, they're not available in my country. The only lilac available is a PSP2000 version.

Ipod touch defernetly

i have one and they really do beat a psp because it is touch screen you can get apps like a virtual drink for free you can get loads of vertual apps that are really good
i love my itouch it is asome i think it is well better than a psp!
so yeh i think you should get a itouch you will get more out of it and you can get games from your home instead of going out to the store just to get one game that you probly go on it once and then never go on it again!!

Get an itouch
Regards
Joe Ryan

I think the ipod touch would be cooler. Try to visit apples site before you decide (to see the features of the iPod touch. The touch screen gives a different feel and experience. As for the psp, I can say that its addicting as long as there are good games to play...

Hope you find your perfect gadget, Gud luck!^^,
