I don't really know, but it's just a wild guess: I think it's because the transparent bodies are made of some type of plastic, and the heat of the console might affect the body more in comparison with the common body.
I think because of polycarbonate, plastic that used to make transparent crystal cases. Usually, it's more fragile than standard ABS plastic and worse going through the fallings.
PSP was like a switch back in the day, i remember hacking mine and playing online for the first time I fell inlove with it my psp had a skin of green flames i was a victim of iphone and now i regret not playing the psp and the vita enough.
Yeah i agree even the button layout looks similar even the way it works with how you can either use a cartridge or store it on the micro sd card the only difference is theres no music player or internet but you can argue youtube is good enough
I changed my exterior/housing of my PSP 3000 from piano black to metallic red one. When I got it used, the paint started to chip on the back which is why I replaced the housing. It goes really well with my red Monster Hunter grip.
Whoa... 😮 i already bought and replaced my shell. i bought normal black shell. i clicked this video to look at what you got because my faceplate was terrible. imagine my reaction when you showed me there’s a 2nd wrapper.
U could buff out the scratch on the white shell if u use it later i buffed my psp cuz it was hella scratched and it came out wonderful just have to be super gentle.
the psp1000 was also designed to feel sleek and formal so the dpad was soft but it was BAD for fighting games as the diagonal didnt go in when doing quarter circle movements, a guy on youtube used a old NES cover cut out a dpad shape for a dpad mod. i had no NES cover and used a old plastic VHS tape case. psp200 solved the dpad problem
I've just recently done this, and my D-Pad acts wonky. It catches on the casing a bit, so I use the analog stick instead. I refurbished mine in crystal clear to match the clear case I put it in. now my clear PSP has a lid to protect the screen. I mainly did all this work just to see if Silent Hill Dithering got any better on the PSP 1001. Unfortunately I discovered I was MUCH better off just using my Vita. The Vita was harder to refurbish (all those ribbon cables) but totally worth it. My PSP just feels like cheap plastic by comparison!
I got one of those from ali express, the overall build quality is so much worse than the original case :( i’d rather stick with the original case if it is not damaged. Oh nvm you just changed the front only
Hi! It's ImFrancisGYT 👋 my old Nintendo 3DS XL is not working my Homebrew launcher to install fbi and cia games without luma3ds and/or cfw. Please help meee, and fix on how install easily. I'm your fan and also I'm a gamer too. :-)
This makes me wonder why companies don't make transparent electronics anymore? This is beautiful.

Also psp could also be on the tv using the cables
Colour combo looks good! considering clear with black and for the other white with black buttons.
I replaced my whole shell ( front and back) with a clear transparent case. It’s a fairly big job to do the whole thing but worth it.
@@leob.970 got mine off eBay. They do still them on Amazon too.
Like everything it’s a bit of a risk but read feedback. That’s what I did.
It is hard to replace faceplate? Is there something what can i damage?

How you make sure dust don’t get in? If I see a spec on the screen I will go nuts.
I should definitely try to do this because I have a boring black psp 1000
The PSP 1000 has a larger aftermarket. They also make stickers for PSP 1000. On eBay and Amazon.

How to fix analog for ps vita?
Essentially broke my PSP doing this, it’s not that easy. The screws are very brittle and can strip easily leaving you stuck.

What about the backplate?
Could I get a link to that windows CTF?
