All the Jailbreak dongle in the market is a USB plug and play solution , what you are concerned about is the ability to upgrade because you want the option to flash your Jailbreak with psgroove or new firmware . no one really expect the Chinese team to come out with their own upgrade codes. Unfortunately , most of the PS3 dongle in the market are cheap and not upgradable .

PS3Break :
An image speaks more than thousand words:

"white" version of PS3break you have a ATMEL chip that can be upgraded with FLIP and without any troubles or any additional soldering work (thank God!).

"pink" version of PS3break you have a PIC micro controller with a FAKE upgrade button and it can't be upgraded (yet or not) as easy as ATMEL's version, probably needs soldering work. Bottom line: you can't update your PIC at the moment, no matter what resellers or manufacturer are saying!

NOTE : The White version of PS3Break are totally sold out , do NOT buy PS3Break anymore .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PSJailbreak CLONE


Obviously it is not a ATMEL chip , it can't be upgrade either .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PS3Yes



The chip is AVR at90usb162 , yep , It can be upgraded.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
P3Free

I don't have a P3Free personally , but there is a section on PSX-SCENE sponsored by P3Free team on which you'll get the info that you can't update P3Free via USB.
At least you have to purchase a soldering kit and pic programmer for the update .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
UsbBreak



The manufacturer of UsbBreak is the same as PS3Break , just a cheap alternative way to jailbreak the PS3, of course , it is not upgradable for sure .
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If anyone can provide the info of the original PS3KEY OR PSJAIBREAK , it would be appreciated.
This article is not fully completed, I'll update it when I got more info .

Overall : PS3YES is the best choice if you need a plug and play solution .

I would recommend PS3Yes rather than PS3Break if anyone still want to buy a PS3 Jailbreak dongle . It's based on ATMEL currently , you'd better place an order now , Once they are out stock, and they have a market to supply, I would not be surprized if they too switch over the PIC chip.
Lightake.com if anyone want to buy .

On the one hand, the ps3yes.com website says that it can be upgraded, but it also says: "PS3YES! can flashed with PSGroove HEX, but it will lost the auto upgrade function, next time you must break it out and short two pad to enter upgrade mode. " at http://www.ps3yes.com/English/Upgrade.aspx . That's not entirely reassuring.

Also, to add to your P3 Free info, the image here http://www.p3free.com/P3FREE-10.jpg clearly shows that they provide a ribbon cable, but presumably you need to have the PIC programming hardware yourself.

I look forward to seeing more about the upgradability of the PS3Key (which seems like possibly the most reliable of the clones, if based only on the English of the website) once someone has actually tested it one out.

what's so hard about that? they just didn't include a button to enter dfu. the pads can be seen easily.

The ps3 jailbreak clone has the ATMEL board .. it is ATMEL ATMEGA16A AI-1030

I have this "pink" ps3break dongle but it is in the smaller case than shown on the picture and the code on the side came up as legit on the website, is this true that my upgrade button is fake. I have not succesfully upgraded it yet. But when i plug it in and press upgrade the dongle does enter DFU mode ?

Edit:
Just opened up my dongle for the purpose of this, even in the smaller case and verified legit by ps3 break.com it is the pic board. However i have just used the new firmware uploader from ps3break to update the usb to hermes v4 1.5 hex file from ps3 break website.

If anyone can show me a ps groove hex file i can try which is compatable and see if that works also.
