    I was bought a Vita 1000 as a Christmas gift back around 2014 or 2015. I never used it seeing I wasn't really into mobile gaming anymore. It's now 2021 and I'm so glad I decided to never get rid of it and stored it in original box. I have it completely modded with enso now. I definitely recommended the OLED screen. Works beautifully.

    A few other things about the 2000 model for anyone still looking to buy;
    The speakers on it are much, much better than the 1000, and its also a lot lighter than the 1000 model. The shoulder buttons in particular are much tighter and a little more tactile, so they wobble less and have a little more feed back when clicked. The battery is also a little better as well.
    One last thing, If you mod your vita, there is a way to tweak the saturation and such to make the 2000's screen look a lot closer to the OLED screen, to the point where it _almost_ rivals the OLED.

      My OLED vita looks good but in dark scenes I can see these lines across the screen. It’s been like that since I got new. I don’t know if it was a manufactured defect but I use my Slim Vita way more I love it way more and the screen is not as nice but I like how much more light weight it is. Using the OLED vita for an hour my hands start to hurt with the Slim I can game for a like 4 hours and my hands don’t hurt. Plus the screen is way brighter then the OLED.

    Having used both I actually find the oled screen to be a bit too vivid. It's like they boosted the saturation a lot to show what the oled is capable of. While the lcd screen leans a bit too much to the washed out look I still prefer it. If it's modded you can also change a couple settings which makes it almost as vibrant as the oled. You'd still be missing the perfect blacks, but every other color will look almost as vibrant, and more color accurate. You also get better definition in dark greys without the green noise or mura that you get with the oled.

      @@ScutuRC.my God, you're just parroting what you hear from the Internet fear mongering. I have a model 1 Vita which I bought in 2011, with heavy use. I have a Pixel 6a phone, and LG B9 TV, a Switch, all with an OLED screens and constant use, not a shade of burn in. Just Google a RUclipsr called Wulff Den. He left his Switch constantly on for months, without switching it off even for a second, with a static image and burn in only appeared after 36000 hours. How's that to tell you the burn in paranoia is utter bullshit? The first OLED screens back in early 2000s sure, not the Vita, not everything else since. The risk of getting burn in is the same as CRTs and less than plasma. Sony removed the OLED for the slim for costs, it's a known fact, stop dreaming. You got the worse deal, maybe you're fine with your LCD because you got used to it and never put both models side by side, but the difference is night and day, especially the poor LCD they put on the Vita. It has low contrast, sad and washed out colours and the screen persistence is awful, blurring everything when moving the camera fast. Sorry.

    As an OG owner back in '11 and a current 1000/2000 owner... Slim all the way. The form factor, weight, internal memory, matte finish (on my model, anyway) are all exceptional. The screen isn't a problem, no matter what people say. The 1000 was oversaturated and the LCD feels more natural. Plus, the battery life is great. As someone with mild OCD, not having to remove fingerprints all the time is a plus as well. Also, for whatever reason it boots and shuts down faster... not sure why, as the internals are the same.

    It's definitely worth mentioning that a major drawback of an OLED screen is burn in. If you play games that have static images on the, like a map, there's a chance that it will get burned into the screen. If you've ever had an OLED phone, like a Samsung, you'll notice this if you use the GPS in the car. I've had phones with horrible burn in and will go LCD any day.
    Yes, you can replace it for relatively cheap. I'm technically inclined and could replace the screen without hassle but others who aren't will suffer from having to deal with it. Also, there will come a time where quality replacement parts will become scarce and expensive.

    I love and own both of them but I always recommend the 2000 Vita and the reason is simple, longevity.
    You can do long plays on your Vita 2000 without ever worrying about a damaged screen, your screen will last years upon years looks as sharp as day one. The Vita 1000 inevitably starts getting some "stains", the mura effect and, at least for me, that ruins the experience a bit and on the long run you'll eventually have to replace the screen and, as time goes by, it's harder and harder to get spare parts for your Vita 1000 whereas spare parts for the Vita 2000 are still widely available and are expected to be for a while longer.
    Don't get me wrong, if you have the money, get both of them, the OLED screen is beautiful, but it simply isn't the best screen for a more "heavy" gamer and it won't last as much.

      It’s not hard to find a replacement front shell and OLED screen. I bought 4 which are red/blue on eBay and look great.

      @@yordan826 yes. Only when screen is completely black. Also on a pure white screen I see no discoloration at all. Just like yourself, I have fully inspected my Phat, in game. No discoloration anywhere. I only use my Slim model more now. Because I want my Phat Vita to stay in pristine condition, stored away in its case. 😀

    Oled is the best but, just one important detail, USB port.
    Good luck getting that Sony charger for the oled vita. I know you can get one from ebay etc, but better get the practicality of a regulsr USB type B.

    I have had both. Honestly, I prefer the 2000. Personally, I can’t see a huge difference in the screen. The 2000 is a little lighter, comes in a pretty blue colour and ya, that proprietary charger on the 1000 really sucks.

    Noone ever tells you that the screen on the oled deteriorates over time and since you cant find new oled anymore it isnt worth it.

    A new 2013 Vita cost more than a PS4 pro 2019 Xbox One X, Switch 2.0, 2x Switch Lite, and they DON'T even come with the darn memory card. Let that sink.
    Yep... waiting for a port or the soon emulator.

    I prefer the OLED version. There are some improvements with the 2000 that make certain things better but overall the gameplay experience on the OLED version is superior, in my opinion.

    I first owned a slim but after having a fat one just to have an assassin's creed game and noticed a huge a difference with the quality of the screen, I sold my slim.

    Purchased a new oled back in the day for $160. Beautiful machine. I kept it mint, but hadn't played it in a couple of years. Watched your videos and thought to mod it. Bought a 2nd one from a sony factory refurb and its in really nice shape. No scratches on the front and back but some minor scratches on the aluminum looking frame. $129 for these. (MDG in Canada if you're interested). Wanted to use this one to hack and mod first. Just got in 3 SD2Vita cards (I have a vita TV as well) and now they're all rocking 128Gb and homebrew, game downloads, emus . I forgot I even have a switch!!

    I go with the slim.. Display is ALMOST as good as the phat OLED but you have Micro USB and better battery

      I'm going to get the slim to go along side my slim collection. I just prefer the design and the lack or on par screen/display doesn't bother me. I might also get the PSTV accessory. I'm not going to get it boxed but I'll get the starter kit.

    Guy's gotta be kidding. Take a freeze frame of first 5 seconds of this vid with the 2 side by side. Even with the camera 10 feet away, the oled screen still pops.

    Spent days on this subject and considering its dwindling availability I went for... Both.
    The neon orange 2000 and the white 1000. 😩👌
    Get a good one while you can!
