Sony clarifies PSP-3000 screen issue
Published Wednesday, Oct 22 2008, 19:16 BST | By Andrew Laughlin
The updated PSP is said to boast a brighter screen with more vibrant colours and deeper blacks, but some users have complained about scan-lines as a result of the unit de-interlacing images.
A spokesperson for Sony told PSPFanboy: "On some occasions, scan lines may appear on scenes where brightness changes drastically, due to the hardware features of the new LCD device on PSP-3000."
The spokesperson pointed out that the scan lines are more visible "as a result of improving response time to alleviate the after-images on PSP-3000".
However, as this problem pertains to a specific hardware specification, Sony has "no plans for a system software update concerning this issue".
