"Based on Playstation Portable"

[edit]

I keep seeing that in the article, but it is very unclear what this entails. Clearly the device is a PlayStation device and physically modeled after the PSP Go, but internally it doesn't use the same hardware (ARM vs MIPS architecture) or software (Android vs XMB OS) so I think that phrase has to be reworded or removed TMV943 (talk) 22:03, 2 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I sort of agree, but then sort of not. I may change it, and I will post here when its done! Nathanl1192 (talk) 18:19, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
 Done I have changed on instance of the phrase and removed the other. Nathanl1192 (talk) 18:24, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Well, both Android and the PlayStation OS are based upon Linux, just saying.--Ace Alabama (talk) 02:05, 9 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Isn't this a rumor?

[edit]

There has been no official release from Sony about this, an isn't 99% of this article speculation? I don't think this is a legit article. DanielDPeterson (talk) 20:33, 23 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree! I had some of my edits removed once on another article, due to speculation, even though, like this article, I had reliable sources. This page should really be removed.Nathanl1192 (talk) 18:18, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There's a difference between speculation with no proof. And reporting on an unreleased device complete with photos of a working prototype corroborated by multiple sources. So none of the article is speculation, most of these articles have facts that are backed up by the actual prototype device.KiasuKiasiMan 15:10, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
There's also a leaked commercial for it so its pretty much real, just unannounced.KiasuKiasiMan 15:10, 3 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Release date

[edit]

Now April or early May, according to http://playstationlifestyle.net/2011/03/24/xperia-play-could-arrive-stateside-soon/--12.72.53.167 (talk) 08:10, 25 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]


I dont know what your all talking about but this was released earlier today in england, i bought one from the carphone warehouse and it is available on pay and go for 520 pounds but there are no contract deals yet, strange. Anyway i changed the to be released status. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.217.7.156 (talk) 00:00, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The release date varies by country (depending on many things such as carrier uptake) - what 12.72.53.167 was referring to was the US release I believe. Alphathon /'æl.f'æ.ðɒn/ (talk) 00:10, 2 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The controls

[edit]

In the inputs there are touchscreen and acelerometer, but where's the controls?--187.149.150.153 (talk) 23:37, 11 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

God of War?

[edit]

I actually own this phone, and have searched and found no way to access the God of War game mentioned in a section on the article. Could someone please put more explanation into how this is obtained or remove it from the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IFrenzy (talk • contribs) 04:14, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The article doesn't actually state that these games (God of War and LittleBigPlanet) are available for end users - it simply states that they were "shown off internally". While it is likely that they are available, or will be at some point, it is also possible that they were only ported as tech demos. I do not own an Xperia Play, so I cannot check to see if they are available, but if they are not some clarification may be necessary. However, if they are available, we cannot explain how to obtain them unless it s encyclopædically notable for some reason, per WP:NOTHOWTO. Also, removing them from the article would be counter-productive, as they help to show the capabilities and history of the device. Alphathon /'æl.f'æ.θɒn/ (talk) 10:59, 15 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

[edit]
The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: move to Xperia Play. Favonian (talk) 17:46, 4 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sony Ericsson Xperia Play → Xperia Play – Sony Ericsson no longer exists -- Ericsson sold its share in the company in February 2012. Thus, no product currently being sold is going to have Sony Ericsson in the name. If you look on the Sony web site, they call this simply the Xperia PLAY. Since page moves are designed to be as short/simple as possible while still being accurate, Xperia Play makes the most sense as a page title. I would have moved this page to Xperia Play or Sony Xperia Play, but both pages already exist. CaseyPenk (talk) 21:26, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Edit: I notice that the phone's physical body still includes the Sony Ericsson branding. That doesn't preclude us from using a more concise name that matches with the way this phone is currently marketed. CaseyPenk (talk) 22:00, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

AT&T and Verizon are switched.

[edit]

The original AT&T 3G/HS version was before the Verizon one. The Black verizon Xperia Play came out around a year later, and then the At&T 2nd version was released. The version on the Sony website was also only GSM compatible, making this claim even more incorrect. Leeroyhim (talk)

Article really needs to be undated as to when the Xperia Play was discontinued.

[edit]

I assume this phone is no longer being manufactured or sold new so the article should state when Sony stopped making/selling this phone. --Notcharliechaplin (talk) 21:18, 16 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Does the Docomo variant exist?
