Pros: - So. Friggin. Cheap.

- Works just as needed*

- received it fairly quickly too.

(*note for newbies - since the eeprom is hacked on this, it can't be used as a substitute for an ordinary PSP battery, but it will require charging before use)

Cons: Hilariously haphazard packaging. It was wrapped in crepe paper and selotape like something that should come out of a Christmas cracker.

(That said, it came inside a bubblewrap envelope so it was safe as houses during transport.).

Other Thoughts: Would have been nice if the manufacturers acknowledged the team who developed the the exploit and software that enabled this thing to work.

Bottomline: I'm definitely satisfied.

Great Pandora!!

Pros: - Good build quality.
- Very, very simple to use!!
- Unbricks bricked PSP (tested)!
- Do the work that it's supposed to!
- Cheap!
 
Cons: - When you put it, you have to press a little bit harder than the original one to fit it in the battery compartment. But no big deal since you will only use it to unbrick a bricked PSP...
- Came in a plastic bag.
 
Other Thoughts: - When I first used it, I forgot to charge the Pandora Battery, so it didn't work. Don't forget to charge the battery!!!
- If you have Vista installed on your pc, probably you'll face the same problem as me when creating a Magic Memory Stick. I recomend you to use a XP to creat it!!
 
Bottomline: This is a great Pandora Battery! Very cheap!
If you need it, buy it!

Pros: works well. First time using a Pandora battery managed to get it going straight away.

Cons: there are none what so ever. Does exactly what is supposed to do, unless you dont know what your doing with it lol.

Other Thoughts: very good product worth the money. I was happy with the item and i am sure many other people out there who require this product will be happy with it aswell.

Bottomline: If you require one of these I would invest in one of them. Well worth the money and it does the job its supposed to do.

Works great, every time.

Pros: This tool battery works great for unbricking and CFW installation. I had no problems on the function side of this.

The battery is clearly labeled, so you won't be getting it confused with your normal battery. The battery fit with little trouble (see below).

It came charged with enough juice to turn on the PSP, and I even ran the PSP for a few minutes before switching to a regular battery.

Cons: There's just a couple of issues with the shape of the battery. There was a little "foot" on the bottom that held the battery too tight and made it hard to pull out of the PSP. I took a set of fingernail clippers and trimmed it down, and now it slips in and out easily.

Other Thoughts: This is the sort of thing you only need once or twice in your life, but is absolutely vital when you do need it. If only other systems were so easy to unbrick.

Bottomline: Much, much cheaper than some other tool or pandora batteries. I haven't regretted this purchase once.
