PS Vita Slim specifications, slimmer, lighter with longer lasting battery

Arriving alongside the announcement that the PS Vita Slim will be available to buy in Europe on February 9, we  have the official specs which reveal a change to the screen of the original handheld, as well as the dimensions and weight.

The dimensions of the unit have been confirmed as 183.6 x 85.1 x 15mm, which makes PS Vita Slim 20 percent thinner than the original Vita. This also means it’s much lighter too weighing in a 219g compared to 260g for the Wi-Fi enabled original.

The OLED screen from the original has also been replaced with an LCD screen, while the battery is a little bit more powerful meaning it should stay charged for longer.

The PS Vita Slim will launch in the UK on February 7 and will retail at approximately £180.

Here’s the full specification breakdown…
