PSP2 Concept Has Curves in All the Right Places
There is no denying it, Sony makes some sexy, stylish electronics. The PSP and the PSPgo are no exception. However this artist’s concept rendition of the PSP2 rivals anything Sony could have dreamed up themselves.
The PSP’s design was just updated with the PSPgo, but designer Tai Chiem is already thinking of the PSP’s next make over with his concept of the PSP2. Featuring a flexible OLED that can be rolled around the actual PSP unit itself for maximum portability, stereo speakers on either side, a jog wheel, dual analog sticks and more. The unit powers on sending an electric charge to the display stiffening the 3mm thick flexible OLED screen, perfect for gaming on the go.
Words can’t do this concept justice, so check out the images below (Click on thumbnail for full size):

This thing is awesome even though I seriously doubt they would make it like that.
Very sleek and sexy, although it looks like it would be painful to grasp onto for extended periods of time.
That is a brilliant idea for the OLED. Great use of its felxibility and portabililty, I might get one if they truely stick to a design similar to this. I love how they are playing RE5 on them, the greatest game ever.
I’ve known about these screens for a little while, but this is the first truly practical purpose I’ve seen for them. Nice. I see this spreading to phones and other portable devices as well.
This is an old sony concept for OLED displays. This is the direction they plan on going when OLED become cheaper. Untill than, enjoy paying over 2000$ for a 22inch OELD HDTV. These are just ideas, not facts .
i’ve noticed the most obvious flaw here. Where are the buttons?
Looks more like the PSP7 to me.
That’s insane man. I can’t imagine how you’d hold it, though.
lol. this is a very bad design. i agree that it looks sleek and cool. but this design only suits for portable oled tv, and not psp.
there are no buttons and holding it with both hands covers the speakers. and i dont know how exactly am i suposed to hold it.
i think the design of the psp go suits it ver well. only touchscreen and inbuillt camera and maybe an appstore missing from it. oh and an umd drive.
To anybody that said this is a bad design, please get some idea of the design process for anything. You get some ideas, some make it farther than others. Since this is a really interesting idea, they went ahead and made some pictures to get a better look at it, they never looked at one of those pictures and saw a finished psp they planned on releasing, not once ever.
Very good starting concept. We gotta remember we are thinking out side the box of whats capable today. This would be the next evolution in portable technology. As such the control for this would not be what everyone would normally consider. I believe this unit would include touch, voice, sight and/or mind control. Then there wouldn’t be much need for buttons or much grasping as in the traditional sense. In fact to take it even further the unit might even hover in place right in front of you. That is the great part of a concept. We can take the idea and go anywhere we can imagine.
it needs a better grip
@Mcx?
mind control? yeah, okay.
@chaiseman
thats because it IS a portable OELD concept. Someone just slapped a PS logo on there..
at least it has 2 joysticks…
@shadowjin
Even today you can control things on a screen with your mind. I wish I had a link for you but on a TV show Prototype This! they used the technology in a system that would shut down a car if you got too agitated. The car was started by being calm enough to focus on pushing a block on a screen out a cave or something with your mind. It’s not so much you can do anything your brain can come up with, but I think its possible they could do something like focusing on triangle activates triangle, although I seriously doubt the technology is capable of working fast enough to be practical in gaming lol.

@JohnnyTruant5
Oh like back in the day they dream of this way we could all connect with each other via some crazy system of tubes and be able to talk to people a million miles away. Crazy idea huh? Oh that too was impossible let alone how could it be practical enough for us to play games against each other? Crazy I know but anythings possible if you put your mind to it.
@Mcx
yeah, i know what you mean. i was able to manipulate you into responding back purely with the power of my mind! Its incredible how todays technology has progress since 2010.
@shadowjin
LOL, Ok well quit it cause I need to get back to work. “with great power comes great responsibility”
@mcx
lol
so I have never wanted a PSP before just because I thought I would never really use it since I don’t really have time outside the house for gaming and I would prefer playing the PS3 when I am home…but I must say if the PSP2 ends up looking like this….I think I NEED one! Not just want, NEED!
Wicked design, great idea too. But where are the d-pad and face buttons?
Talks were being had about this type of design being more likely to appear for print before it appears for a full fledges video device. Newspapers, and magazines were thinking along this line- buy a oled mat, and similar to the Kindle’s life, you can download on it, but it’s terribly more portable.
