Upgrade your PS Vita 2000 / Slim to USB-C with our professional USB-C charging port modification. This service replaces the original Micro-USB socket with a modern USB-C connection while retaining the Vita's USB data functionality.
Our PS Vita 2000 USB-C modification costs £59.99 and is suitable for the PS Vita 2000, also commonly known as the PS Vita Slim or Vita 2K.
The original Micro-USB port is removed from the motherboard and a USB-C socket is professionally installed in its place. The modification includes the required power connections, USB data connections and 5.1kΩ pull-down resistors on the USB-C CC lines.
PS Vita USB-C modifications are carried out at our Bolton, Greater Manchester repair centre, with a UK-wide service available for customers throughout the country.
PS Vita 2000 USB-C Mod
The PS Vita 2000 originally uses a Micro-USB connection for charging and USB communication.
Our PS Vita 2000 USB-C mod replaces this original Micro-USB socket with a USB-C connection, allowing compatible USB-C cables to be used instead.
The modification is suitable both as an upgrade for a working Vita and as an alternative when the original Micro-USB charging socket has become worn or damaged.
• Replaces the original Micro-USB socket
• USB-C charging connection
• USB-C to USB-C charging support
• USB data functionality retained
• 5.1kΩ CC pull-down resistors installed
• Professional motherboard modification
No software or firmware modification is required for the USB-C conversion.
PS Vita Slim USB-C Charging Upgrade
The PS Vita 2000 is also commonly referred to as the PS Vita Slim or Vita 2K.
Replacing the original Micro-USB socket with USB-C means you no longer need to use the original Micro-USB connection for charging the console.
The reversible USB-C connector can be inserted either way around, making the charging connection more convenient for everyday use.
This modification changes the physical USB connector; it does not convert the PS Vita into a USB-C fast-charging device or increase the console's original charging rate.
USB-C to USB-C Charging Support
Our PS Vita 2000 USB-C modification includes 5.1kΩ pull-down resistors on the USB-C CC lines.
These resistors allow a suitable USB-C source to detect the modified Vita as a power sink and provide the standard USB supply required by the console.
This allows the modification to support suitable USB-C to USB-C charging connections rather than being limited to USB-A to USB-C cables.
The modification does not add USB Power Delivery fast charging to the PS Vita and does not increase the Vita's designed charging capability.
PS Vita 2000 USB Data Transfer
The original PS Vita 2000 Micro-USB connection provides both charging and USB data functionality.
Our USB-C conversion retains the required USB data connections, allowing the modified port to continue providing the Vita's supported USB communication functionality.
This is an important difference between the PS Vita modification and some charging-only USB-C conversions used on older handheld consoles.
The USB-C modification does not add new USB functionality or increase the original USB data speed; it retains the functionality already supported by the PS Vita 2000 through a different physical connector.
What Is Included in the PS Vita 2000 USB-C Modification?

The complete PS Vita 2000 USB-C modification costs £59.99.
Damaged PS Vita 2000 Micro-USB Port
This modification can also be useful when the original PS Vita 2000 Micro-USB socket has become worn, loose or physically damaged.
Possible symptoms of a damaged original port include:
• PS Vita 2000 not charging reliably
• Micro-USB plug feels loose
• Charging cuts in and out when the cable moves
• Console only charges when the cable is held at an angle
• Original Micro-USB socket is visibly damaged
If you want to retain the original Micro-USB connection instead, we also provide a separate PS Vita 2000 Micro-USB Port Repair.
USB-C Modification or Standard PS Vita 2000 Port Repair?
We provide two options for a damaged PS Vita 2000 charging port.
• Standard Micro-USB Port Repair – £49.99
• USB-C Charging Port Modification – £59.99
Select the standard repair if you want to retain the original Micro-USB connection.
Select this USB-C modification if you would prefer to replace the original connection with USB-C.
How We Install the PS Vita 2000 USB-C Port
The PS Vita is carefully dismantled to access the motherboard and original Micro-USB socket.
The existing port is professionally removed and the motherboard is prepared for installation of the USB-C connection.
The USB-C socket is then installed with the required charging, data and CC connections. After installation, the console is reassembled and tested for correct charging and USB operation.
USB-C port modification requires precise motherboard soldering because the connections and surrounding components are small and can be damaged by incorrect installation.
PS Vita 2000 / Slim Models
This modification is specifically for the PS Vita 2000 series, commonly referred to as the PS Vita Slim or Vita 2K.
The earlier PS Vita 1000 OLED model uses a different original connector and requires its own dedicated USB-C modification service.
If you own the OLED PS Vita 1000, select our separate PS Vita 1000 USB-C modification rather than this service.
