I just want an Xperia Play 2. Make it a foldable this time around—and as thin as a Samsung Fold 7 (with screens just as large, so it just looks and feels like a normal phone when closed)—and I'm completely sold.
The original was an excellent idea squandered. Had Sony continued to invest in the idea, I could see future Play phones not only being a proper followup to the Vita we never had, but also a major competitor to the Steam Deck (Edit: Switch 2 as well).
Come on Sony, be innovative again like you used to. Give me what I want, no, what I need.
No way. Apparently heads will explode if phones aren’t thin enough to act as a knife and perfect boxes…
Seriously though, that would be sick.
I think my dream phone is an Xperia play style slide out keyboard, instead of gamepad, and a “bulge” design like HTC used to do.
