First things first - PS Vita features a 5" big OLEDÂ aka organic light emitting diode, multi-touch screen. We believe the screen size is really big for a handheld device. More real estate to display graphics means more enjoyable gaming experience. The screen resolution is 960 x 544 pixels which is nice. PS Vita offers two analog control sticks, touch controls at the back side of device, 6-axis motion sensor for added pizza to your game enjoyment. The surprising addition is presence of rear and front facing cameras. Now comes the awesomeness - PS Vita features quad-core ARM Cortex A9 processor. This clearly means the graphics quality on Vita will be second to none.
