Sony Ericsson Xperia PLAY CDMA Pro Reviews

Based on hardware alone, the Xperia Play is not an inspiring choice. The specs and Android experience are good but not great, the display is surprisingly dim, and at risk of sounding too broad, there are no games that really justify the gamepad and added thickness. However, what’s more important here is PlayStation Suite — there’s really no other reason to get this phone over any number of Android devices on the market. At this point, the selection of games is sparse and the quality is subpar. I was hoping there’d be more talk of Suite’s future in Sony’s E3 keynote, but it was literally a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it nod to the service before changing the focus to the (honestly much more impressive) PlayStation Vita, whose Suite support takes a backseat to its proprietary software and even its downloadable PSP software.
