Sony Ericsson Xperia Play

If you’re serious about gaming then you ought to be serious about the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play: this Android superhero is built for gaming. It’s the first certified PlayStation smartphone ever. And you thought this was just a pipe dream.

Transforming like Optimus Prime, this smartphone turns from an ordinary looking unassuming touchscreen smartphone into a gaming beast, with a sleek hunk of metal that’s a real game controller – complete with optical joypads and shoulder buttons – that slides out from under the screen.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Play comes with six games pre-loaded, and there’s a raft of apps available for download on the Android Market.

You’ll be able to push the phone to the max, with a 4-inch touchscreen plus a 1GHz processor that’ll let you cruise your way through any game, as well as everything else you might need a smartphone to do. Like, say, phoning someone to rave about the time you’re having with it.
