I'm hunting for a Vita.
Should I get a Fat or Slim?

Fat if you really want the oled screen. Slim if you wanna hack it without shelling money for a memory card (slim comes with internal memory), and be able to charge it without a proprietary cable.
In either case I'd grab an SD2VITA so you can install all your shit on it.

Fat has easier to find replacement parts & has hall effect sticks. 2000 if you're limp wristed

Why is Vita3K so shit. I don't want to buy a Vita for like 10 games when I already have the latest retro chinkheld. Somehow it emulates Switch just fine even with 60fps mods and everything else I've even seen people run PC games on it but Vita is still a problem.

I had a fat and while yeah the screen was pretty good, it wasn't worth the annoyances of no internal memory and the proprietary connector
Maybe I'm autistic about the cable idk, it's easier to solder in a USB C port on the fat than the slim
The other reason why I traded my fat for a slim was the fingerprint magnet finish all over the front of the fat, the piano black slims are no better on that front, but the matte plastic slims feel really nice

Fat has OLED but likes to develop issues randomly.
Slim is LCD but Slims are generally more reliable from what I've seen.
I've been looking at used Vita market and it sucks. You're overpaying for ancient shit hardware that has worse build quality than the shit they make in China nowadays for $200-300 that's like 20 times faster with a better display.

I own an OLED and I can safely say that getting a 2000 model is probably a better choice in the long run unless you are willing to perform custom mods on your Vita. I highly doubt the difference in screen quality justifies the constant paranoia about burn-in or the lack of higher quality peripherals.

Your phone. It's a waste of money, there are 2 demos for the AR, tearaway, and Little Big Planet 2.5
Wipeout 2048 was supposed to have an AR museum and racing mode where you could lay out the AR cards to make circuits, even advertised on the box and the manual, and it was cut, never got released.

2nd hand vitas probably won't have the AR cards needed to display virtual assets.

My fat Vita is in mint condition, fit enough to be sold to a museum.

Honestly, a retroid 5. The fat is the best, but the blotches are a pain in the ass and the only vitas available that aren't busted to shit and back are JP.

Fat has an OLED screen, though be warned it’s a very early OLED so it’s highly prone to various issues like burn-in and weird blotchy blacks. Also the charger is proprietary and some of the buttons feel tiny as shit (imo).

Slim is slimmer, obviously, and has an LCD screen which will last longer but isn’t as colorful as the OLED is. The charger is now a regular USB-C and the battery lasts slightly longer. The tiny buttons aren’t as small anymore too.

Some people say that the Slim’s speakers are better than the Fat’s, and I totally believe it because the speakers on the crystal white Fat I got recently sound like ass. I had to hook it up to my bigass dewalt jobsite radio to properly enjoy the version of lumines that'll be stuck on it forever.

I assume you’re going to install CFW on it because it’s borderline unusable if you don’t because of pic related.

Slim. It's just a better device in every way except for the screen, and even then the original's oled screen is not all that, most of them are plagued with splotchy green mura that ruins the visuals if you're playing in the dark on low brightness.

Slim, it's a bitch to find a non shitty third party cable for the fat. Most feel so tight that it'll eventually ruin the charge port.

Same, I don’t want to spend 200$ bucks for like 3 games stuck on the hardware but Vita3K is fucking garbo, every game I try on it keeps fucking crashing.

How is it that I have an insanely powerful Pocket Flip 2 with snapdragon inside capable of playing GC/PS2/Wii with a bit of Switch but it can’t play a goddamn handheld that’s basically just a one-screened 3DS or two PSPs duct taped together?

fat
only downside is that you need an official memory card before hacking it and allocating storage to the sd2vita adapater
slim has shitty stick drift and worse ergonomics
the charger for fat is easy to find right now
get your fat from someone decent dont cheap out. most of the shitters overclocked it and raped its gpu, so you will get gpu errors out the wazoo on a fat thats mishandled
its a weak usb port on the vita, dont stress it out or your files will be corrupted and you have to delete and install again
I suggest having a folder where you move files to from computer and then move files to the correct places through the vita itself
