How can I prevent glare on my PSP 3000?

My PSP 3000 is almost impossible to play in the car because of the extreme glare. It's like looking into a mirror on bright day and it's pretty much unplayable.

Any suggestions?


  • Have you tried increasing the brightness in the console?
  • If its your car you can always keep a small towel handy in it. Cover yourself and the console with it.
  • While travelling in other vehicles have someone else sit next to the window while you sit towards the center. This way the outdoor light will be less of an obstruction.
  • Hold your psp in different inclines till one feels a good balance of outside light vs your psp screen.

Whatever you do try not to strain your eyes for long durations or you could damage your eyesight. I know because I got eye power long time back due to a strenuous game.


There are anti-glare kits on the market you can buy and install yourself. Some shops even might offer the service of installing it themselves by sending your PSP in.

One example I just google'd up: http://www.photodon.com/p/MXT-2205-01-Bulk.html

I'm sure you will find the most suitable one for your needs.
