Playstation Phone Unveiled -Images-News 28/10 (PSP2 LISTED AT SWEDISH ONLINE STORE)

Today Engaget had leaked images revealing a prototype model of the new upcoming psp phone.
Heres what else they had to say
" ...likely boasting Android 3.0 (aka Gingerbread), along with a custom Sony Marketplace which will allow you to purchase and download games designed for the new platform....sporting a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 (a chip similar to the one found in the G2, but 200MHz faster), 512MB of RAM, 1GB of ROM, and the screen is in the range of 3.7 to 4.1 inches. L...the handset does indeed have a long touchpad in the center which is apparently multitouch,...For Sony buffs, you'll be interested to know that there's no Memory Stick slot here, but there is support for microSD cards.
The particular model in these shots is still in prototyping mode. As such, the unit doesn't have a custom skin (not even SE's Timescape design seen on the Xperia devices), and is said to be rather buggy... but it's likely that much of what we reported earlier is still accurate, and though the device could still be headed for a 2010 release, 2011 is looking much more realistic."

What are your thoughts?
I think it looks great! Hopefully will be the successor to the original psp!
The centre-multitouch pad, to me, looks like a pair of dual analogue sticks
Great XD
Engadget have also claimed that the photos are legit!
This is a device which has been confirmed through multiple, trusted sources.....Even since last night we've received more info about the phone -- learning that its codename is "Zeus,".....it was last seen running Android 2.X (not 3.0, which we suspect will be the shipping version)....device pictured in those photos is a prototype running early software (which would explain the A / B button mention in the photo above) with hardware that was likely hand-built, or at the very least created in a very small batch.

Funny enough, over at webhallen There seems to be a PSP 2 on offer for pre-order for 3,295 kr (US$ 499.5). Could it be a mistake? A blunder? Or Reality?

If they keep the hardware similar to current smartphones there would be no reason some of the games couldn't be run on other android phones. This may be great news

Anyone else not see the point in this?
Why would i pay a ridiculous amount of money for a psp which doubles up as a phone when my psp sits on a shelf gathering dust?
If this was a ps3 portable then i'd be getting excited

this just seems ridiculous, why would they stick with snapdragon? or are they going to put in a different GPU, its a playstation phone so you would expect it to be able to throw around some serious muscle for gaming graphics.
I just dont see the point

Go look at epic citadel for the iphone, we could have games like that, we have the hardware its just the lack of developers
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

True, but its only a prototype so it could change!
Yeah and i agree, they should put a much stronger processor so it can handle some hardcore games!
The only thing i am worried about is if its released with an android os. Then all eyes are going to be looking here, at XDA, waiting for them to release a root so those poor pirates can start their piracy!
Makes me sick!!!
And the developers. Well we wouldn't necessarily need more devs as sony are going to hire them anyways to produce their PSP-like games! Hell they've already started on mortal combat!!!!!!!!

With Tegra 2 phones coming out early next year, why would Sony bring out a phone so behind the curve?

The reason being is that Sony need to get back in the race for portable consoles. With the 3DS coming out next year, and the fact their current PSP failed due to the insane amounts of piracy they need to step it up.
I think its a great idea seing as my current 1000 needs to be replaced with something new and fresh. Remember this is only a prototype and will change in the near future.

That's exactly the point. The reason your PSP sits on the shelf gathering dust is because you don't take it everywhere like your phone. If you could play ghost of sparta or little big planet during your lunch hour instead of wordfeud or paper toss on your phone, wouldn't you?

After the PS Phone release on the market, then somebody will find out how PSP games can be coded for Android mobiles like HTC Desire HD, Samsung Galaxy S etc.
So I am thinking that later they will be able to play Crisis Core on Samsung Galaxy S, HTC Desire HD etc.

[INFO] 3.1 is coming next week!

http://thisismynext.com/2011/05/27/...arly-week-expected-release-products-computex/
Remember when we told you those other Android Honeycomb tablets were going to geta helping of 3.1 in early June? Well get ready! Sources have told us that Asus will be releasing its over-the-air update early next week.
WOOO!!!

Oh snap! Was pretty stoked after seeing that french video earlier with the TF running 3.1 but after reading this I'm super stoked!

Like I said in the other thread on this topic D), if Asus DOES release 3.1 next week, I'll be damned impressed with how they're supporting the Transformer so far. Damned impressed.

i can't wait to get my transformer next week...perfect timing

I just cant see myself ever buying from another company other than ASUS and this is why. coming from a samsung device *and we all know the story with them* and there crappy touchwiz that u automatikly cover up with adw ex or launcher pro. I feel that my paycheck goes the extra mile when i buy products from ASUS. *ass kissing done lol*

Updates to Samsung phones in the US have mostly been down to the cell companies and not due to Samsumg themselves.

sweet, i hope the 3.1 custom rom will release asap too after the official update.

Looking forward to next week.

Docomo's to release SH-06D Nerv Evangelion phone

A friend just showed me this today
http://www.evageeks.org/2012/03/a-look-at-docomos-new-evangelion-sh-06d-nerv-smart-phone/
A new Nerv phone to celebrate the release of Neon Genesis Evangelion 3.0
Whether you're an Evangelion fan or not its hard to deny that the phone looks incredible. Since it's being released by Docomo though I have little hope it will release outside of Japan.
Any chance someone might pick this up and release the rom and somehow get it to work on another 2.3 compatible android phones? The interface looks epic!
What are your thoughts?
Quote from the blog:
The SH-06D is also made by Sharp, but unlike the previous model, is a touchpad smartphone that will run Android (2.3 Gingerbread). It also boasts a 4.5-inch capacitive touchscreen display that supports HD (720 x 1280 pixels) resolution and 16 million colors. The phones will come pre-loaded with some Evangelion and a theme designed by Studio Khara.

Wow, looks really cool! Definitely something different! ;-)

I hope that theme designed by Studio Khara will be shared...

oh wow, that really does look amazing.

No m8 like all the lamest kiddy Animes it will be powered by the massive amounts of teenaged angst the main protagonists radiate, with a backup power source fuelled by the obsessive sexual desires for female characters who exist only on celluloid (actually more on digital files these days) given of like a bad smell by the Otaku lacking in enough critical judgement to like Evangelion-esque anime .... sigh.
Come on guys it gets a lot better than Evangelion if you bother to look deep enough ............
Just for record am a pro animator and long standing Anime fan.

someone has access to this ROM?

looks awesome,hope this will be available as theme or os ported ^^

http://www.evageeks.org/2012/05/sh-06d-nerv-phone-promo-plus-review/
OP's article was followed up on May 16th. Preorders start June 16th, with release a bit later that month. Got videos and more info.
Only 30,000 units will be produced, do hope the ROM and theme make their way onto XDA or elsewhere. If I can't get the phone, I at least want to customize my Rezound with that theme.

Would be very cool if something like this came to the U.S. I'm sure someone will eventually port the UI, but I'm considering going to the local fab place and seeing what it would take to do this kind of case customization once I find my next device.

Looks pretty cool, hopefully we get the rom, I wouldn't mind playing around with it.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

Amazing indeed!!! I wonder how much would it cost. But with 30,000 units i doubt that the price would be afordable.

Apparently it will sell for around USD$850 at launch in Japan.

if anyone wants to get together a fund for this, ill order one and see about rooting and dumping the rom for evoryone to play with.

Sorry by advance for my questions... is it possible to only have a adwlauncher ex theme... which does everything.
I try to follow the video and the explanations but it was quiet hard and don't have really understood the reason to use glaeja (it seems to do the same thing that adwlauncher ex?).
Other question, can i use this theme on my GS3?
Thanks by advance!

No there is not a ADW theme. One dev could work on this and make some money though. Glajea is the app wich allows you to have all those widgets on the home screen.
Yes i used it with normal sense theme too. It is useable with quite every launcher and theme. The point was to do it look like Docomo. I don't understand Japanese either, but follow step by step everything from the video and you will get it

Willing to spend $10,700 for an android?

So I just saw this article about the Vertu TI - that will cost approx $10,700.
Starts at 7,900 euros, or about $10,700
Specs:
TI a 3.7-inch touchscreen,
a dual-core 1.7GHz Snapdragon S4 processor,
and an 8-megapixel camera.
There’s also NFC and 64GB of internal storage, plus a front-facing webcam.
Clearly the reporters don't know much because they stated that it is Up-to-date with the OS running ICS
"Luckily, Vertu is mostly up-to-date on Google’s OS. Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich is installed and it’s smooth and speedy:"
According to reports " the TI is gorgeous, understated, and elegant, while remaining purposeful and unique"
Honestly I think it looks hideous. Esp with that price for the phone it better be made of gold.

why would you need this? this looks absolutely ugly compared to stock android

I'd totally buy if i had the cash, and use it as a phone for leisure, would go well with my GS3, IMO.
Great to see a Vertu smartphone running a post-2010 OS, they were really being held back by Nokia and Symbian.

I think it is realy weird they don't use a propper Hardware for that amount of money and at least Android 4.1.x for a new Device

I agree. For the price, it seems to fall short on a lot of aspects. They should at least provide something worth the cash (equal to the specs of a mid-high end computer) rather then attempting to exploit people :/

Vertu again? Oh I remember those days when they modified and tried to sell some obscenely overpriced Nokia back in the days when nokia ruled.
Silly ... And by the way, this one here looks kinda ugly and those buttons look really cheap.

Wherever there is lots of money, bad taste isn't far behind...

I think it is really weird they don't use a latest Android and proper hardware too for such a high priced phone.
They should try to provide something worth for money.

I dont like it

Absurd is the first word that comes to mind for me.

Anyone seen a video of the "unique" interface? I'm interested to see what they did to android to partially justify the outrageous cost.

That phone is fugly!

No just no

So you guys already know that serie, but 4 will come back a little to 1 and 2 times. Why? First, there won't be only arenas, but dungeons too. Why "a little"? There are rumors it will be again free to play, so pay to win too. In my opinion we should wait for some official words, or just for relase, which is slated to "soon", like all/most Gameloft titles. For now, you can see few screenshots and a video teaser. It looks good, gameplay will be awesome, but the main question is, if it will be supported with XPlay, or will it be without lags and if yes, then we only need full game, not freemium. Gameloft please, come back to DH1/2 time!
Update 16.04.2013:
Game is out, of course freemium, that's pity .
Get it now on Google Play!

Sent from my R800x using xda premium

...lol was DH3 really that bad?
Even though Eternity Warriors was story-lacking wave-by-wave mob slaying, I had fun with it. Does DH3 at least compare to Eternity Warriors?

Odp: Dungeon Hunter 4 - coming "soon"
DH3 was good if you played it max 7 arenas in day, cause they are similiar and that's all. Also, some money/gold hack needed, wihout it was pay to win. With graphics and technical features - it was great .
Sent from my Xperia X10i using xda premium

Re: Dungeon Hunter 4 - coming "soon"
DH3 is a good game, but it "forces" you to eventually use real money in the game. And it got repetitive and boring after a few levels.
Hopefully DH4 will be much better.
/==(CyberScopes)==\

I just hope i can play co-op and pvp with 3g conecction. Sadly i dont have wifi connection and because of that DH3 is boring.

Uhhh I kinda doubt it will truly work for the Xperia Play. And if it will it will have really poor quality and with many stutters.

Never lose hope if we're talking about Gameloft xD. By the way buddy, why you're not answering me via GTalk?

I'm actually getting to be quite amazed that Xperia Play can still dance with all these newer devices.
Seeing how well Xperia Play handles Bladeslinger, and seeing Modern Combat 4's performance go to a level near perfection over an update (without sacrificing graphical quality) makes me wonder if this damn thing is immortal
The Xperia Play just won't freaking die! ... this is also a great time to mention that it's dangerously close to 500 games

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?...set=a.248561425505.295193.216238295505&type=1
It should hit in few days officially, but when I see it, I will believe it. Gameloft f*ck up with relase date for Android pretty often so better wait than thinking it can hit today. On iOS it's out for about ~1 day.

It just hit iOs, should to to android soon as they said... 'very soon' though this IS gameloft we're speaking of so.. give it a few months.

and how about XP Optimize ???

on twitter gameloft said they were fixing some bugs before releasing it on android

For now, I don't believe in XP optimize, or even relase for Android before month from now. Gameloft fail again, I thought they will change but that won't happen....Preety bad :<.

Guys, let's not worry too much. Gameloft have always been good to the XP concerning games like this in the past. If it isn't optimized then so be it, but there is still life in our little machines yet

I'm gonna have to side with Korinn here. Gameloft has been with us from the get go, every Gameloft release that should've been adapted to a physical controller got it's "xperia play optimization" and despite some shortcomings, they've delivered some quality products...
And that aside, xperia play is still running recent releases with god-tier performance (did you guys already forget Bladeslinger? ...Scaresoul? ...Repulze?) - have a little faith!

Sorry for the thread going off topic, but how long is Gameloft gonna stay with us??

Probably not much longer since its been 2 years now since the plays release but if they see that lots of play owners are buying their games maybe they'll stick around a little longer and keep optimizing games for our play
