Sure, easily! I can see no problems whatsoever, especially building PS4-compatible hardware with PS4-performance into an 100 - 200 grams smartphone!
| KBG29 said: On the TV, Tablet, and Phones, it would add very, very little cost to have 8GB of GDDR5 and the PS4 APU. Due to the increase in sales volume, they would get even lower prices for the all martials, chips, etc. as well. |
How do you shrink the PS4 APU and GDDR5 RAM to a size that works in a tablet or smartphone and is energy efficient enough to run with a 2 - 4 aH battery?
And why do you think that would be cheap and would add very very little cost? Higher volumes help to reduce prices... but only up to a point.
| KBG29 said: By having the PS4 chip set in many of their devices, and having the PS4 OS be the standard across Sony hardware, they would be in a much stronger position, and the PlayStation platform would be an even more inticing place to develope for. This is the most simple of business decisions held back by the older executives at Sony. |
... or held back by reality.
