Restoring a Forgotten and Destroyed PSP - ( PlayStation Portable )
Ғылым және технология
Hi everyone, thank you for 12 minutes of your time. In this video I back in function PSP 1000 that was forgotten with years. While assembling I have to do few more adjustments to the case and couple repairs that unfortunately I didn't record it, I didn't believe that I will repair this PSP. But here is it, fully working ( I had to clean the CD laser head again - as a bonus ). With this PSP I got some other parts from other PSP model, later I got one more newer PSP to restore it, but that is going to be in some other videos.

Interesting. I've seen several fake restoration videos about these, so seeing actual restoration is refreshing. Love your work.

You right
The psp 1000 is without a doubt the best built psp, after that they just reduced the built quality a lot, nice video.
Really the PSP is the predecessor to all the hand held consoles and hand held PCs we see today like those from AYA NEO and GPD. Used to own one, I think I still have it. Played Patapon 2 and 3 with it, Valkyria Chronicles 2.
the PSP is still an awesome handheld, you can mod them and 3rd party manufactures have made some awesome mods for it. you can get a ISP screen, better buttions, there is a microSD card to Sonys card so you can install all your games to that and emulate if you want.
I ❤ these videos, I put them on while I’m working away on my pc and they help me chill. I always appreciate the high quality production, the great standard of work and the creativity. Great stuff Cat & Andrew.
I really love how you restore electronics. The cleaning, the fixing... it's just so satisfying and inspiring.
your work has gotten so much better than before andrew ! please keep doing content like this, love em so much 😍
There is something very comforting and familiar in Andrew's videos. Thank you!
I really love how you restore electronics. The cleaning, the fixing... it's just so satisfying and inspiring. But you always paint them the same way I would like to see another type of painting or effect :D
I just want to say how amazing your psp looks, it’s giving me hope to revitalize my scratched version. I wish I could have seen your painting process, would love to do the same. Great content!
Epic restoration. I love it . Great job man!!
Days gone (my childhood)😢
Been watching the channel for years, love your videos ! Keep it up
"Let's fix the thing by changing it's motherboard" Somehow that lines seems like "Let's just buy another thing"
Andrew, I am truly amazed and inspired by your ability to repair and restore old tech and give it another chance at life. Inspired by your videos, I am working on my own restoration project on my 9 year old Asus Laptop. Hopefully I can share the video with you once it's done. Cheers!

I saw one of your other PSP restoration, and it instantly made me want to pick up my own PSP again! Sadly, soon I remembered why I put it away; bad L button (doesn't work), and it's just really unstable overall. It only turns on after what I call a kickstart (plugging into the charger and unplugging it). The screen sometimes doesn't turn on, but I can still hear sounds, etc. It's just really weird.
Dude that paint job blew me away, it looks so clean and well made, how did you manage to create that effect? Is there any tutorial I can follow in order to replicate it?
Parabéns pelo trabalho!👏🙂🇧🇷
old memeries has been reworked💖
2023 and this psp is on the 2.71 version. It's kinda impressive

At first I didn't like the idea of the LCD being exposed, but it honestly doesn't look half-bad that way.
PSP is my favourite handheld. It's impressing even now, besides a Nintendo DS, PSP is much better. ❤ Love your video, and please, try to find a PS VITA ver1 to restore.
a friend of mine still has his psp, they're neat
This is cool!
Do you offer repair services?? I recently found my old Daxter limited edition PSP and my control buttons aren’t working, and its not reading any discs. I’ve been looking around at places that can repair them but I figured it’d be worth a shot asking you if you can repair it, awesome video!
Yay! New upload!
Cool, I was waiting to see how you would apply a new front glass. 😅
Are you planning to mod the software, the PSP is a great option for emulating games. (Also you can download whatever game you want after modding it too. And SD to PSP is a great option to expand the storage.)

More console restoration!
When i saw the thumbnail i though it was a psp street 😂😂
I love it ❤
The plastic scrren lens on the original case can acutlly be removed. It just takes a lot of fiddling and some force to get off. You cant use harsher solvents like acetone because that will attack the sourrunding plastics, use isopropanol instead to loosen some of the glue. Aftermarket you can get an actual glass screen lens that fits perfectly in the spot where the plastic one usually goes. You just need to glue it there with some B7000 or similar.
Interesting. This is something new.
epic restore :)
wish I have your skills. at the moment I have a Mac Mini 2014 256 ssd that suddenly stopped working. i think the ssd has misplaced or smth like thatt. its an easy fix really, but without proper tools i never get to it. looking forward to get the tools in the nearest time. getting motivated watching your videos

Can someone provide a link to the theme he used at 9:49 ??? Great work as usual, Andrew! I didn’t think this could be salvaged at all when I started the video. The only thing I would have done differently is the painting, I don’t really like the meteor effect and prefer just plain matte black. Other than that, I think it’s perfect

Hey Andrew i appreciate your hard work and time spent for restoration, However please restore those things which can be used for another 1or 2 years down the line, restoring very old things are not of any use.
Mans lit dude love him always wait for his videos
Hi Andrew! Hope you are fine. My laptop got damaged after a fall, can you tell me what should I do? It’s base is damaged from a corner and palm rest has cracks on both sides of keyboard. Should I change the palmrest and base? How much should it cost? Should I get it done from authorised Lenovo service centre or any third party repair shop?
I like when you say isopropyl alcohol
wooow can you show how you painted it? looks really cool!!!!!
doing the lords work many lesser folks would have just chucked the parts into the trash!
my PSP also dead condition, i will try to fix it by watching your video (Bangladesh ❤)

Hi bro, I'm using low pressure sprays, soon I will do video about modding and painting. But in shortly explained, first I do flat paint, than dust paint from little further and then very low pressure, not hard to do, just need very very little practice
Where can I buy that paint it's sick!!!
I do have a psp 3000, but sadly the battery is dead, still runs on power tho
I legit would never buy a used PSP that has been repaired like this lmao, unless it's 1 dollar.
