Maybe Sony needs to rethink about Xperia Play / PlayStation Phone / PSP / PS Vita?

or I dub the PlayStation Xperia, PSX

Yes, now probably it’s the best time for Sony to release a real gaming phone. Competitive mobile gaming on the rise. You can remotely play games from your PS4 / PC to your mobile and with Google releasing its game streaming and distribution platform, Stadia, along with Microsoft’s Project xCloud. Once Apple iPhone adopts the 5G network, the entire world will be pushing for it. Gaming on mobile will be your wildest dream since the Gameboy. So what does it takes to be a real gaming phone?

The Phawx mentioned at the beginning of this video, “I do not consider a gaming phone, something that is just a rectangle with high-end specs.” I agree with him, giving a phone with all the latest processors, high refresh rate display and big battery are like any other flagship phones. Giving them “gamer” aesthetic, better cooling system, and RGB lighting are not doing any justice for that extra cost. Without physical controllers attached to the phone, any flagship phone can be called a gaming phone, and almost any phone can play games on it.
