PSP was the most returned gadget in the UK during the past year, according to a survey by discount site myvouchercodes.

A poll of 1,833 consumers found that 6.2 per cent of all returned tech purchases over the last year were PSPs, GI.biz reports.

The iPad accounted for 4.9 per cent of returns, Xbox 360 for 4.8 per cent, and the newest iPhone model 4.5 per cent.

The rest of the top ten was made up of non-gaming consumer electronics.

34 per cent of those who had returned hardware cited 'disappointment' with the products.

Not the best survey in the world, but I can't say I'm surprised to see the PSP top it either :oops:

I wonder if the disappointment with the PSP is the lack of UMD films? The Xbox has had the ring of death problems which should have been solved. As these are past returns things may have improved for the Xbox and the very newest versions of the iPhone.

Doubt it, nobody gave a crap when they were 'new and exciting' :)

I was thinking why duplicate my DVDs with UMD? That was my reason for not being interested.
