There you go :)

Laughing out loud! You got me there.

Yeah, they have the Sony name on them, but they are not Sony devices. Just another re-branded Google device.

Even the Xperia Play had almost nothing to do with Sony. No access to PS1, PSP. Not a single 1st party game ever made for it. Not a single game from EA, Activision, Ubisoft, Take-Two, Capcom, Konami, Square, or any other major 3rd pary publisher. PSN access limited to the PS Mobile Store, but only if you basically hacked the device to get it on there. No access to online play, friends lists, messaging, or any other PSN features. The Xperia Play was a device sent to die.

Now if Sony made a Phone that ran on their own OS. Had access to the PlayStation Library, including SIEWWS, 3rd party parteners, and indies. Fully supported by all PSN features and related services. Full Dual Shock controls. Then things would shake up. 

And No, Remote Play or PlayStation Now with a Dual Shock 4, on an Google Xperia device does not count. 

A Phone successor to the Vita with native access to PlayStation games, at the same level of quality we have came to expect over the last 20+ years. That is what would shake up the mobile space. PlayStation Phones with access to all future PlayStation releases, one purchase plays on Phone and on Console, that's where Sony can carve out a viable 100 Million + userbase in the mobile space. 

Ohh no, they're Sony devices. Google never designed them. Sony did. Google doesn't even design their own phones.

Ohh so you don't want a phone, you want a handheld gaming system with the ability to make phonecalls. So why did you say you wanted a phone?

If Sony made a phone that ran their own OS, they would be lighting the money to create it on fire. You know this as well, because Sony pretty much already made what you want in the Vita 3G and nobody wanted it. You have one. You use it as a phone. You can problably cont on one hand the number of people who also did the same for more than a week.

You really need to start understanding that you are a gigantic outlier. Almost no one else on the planet wants what you want. Why do you keep acting like your ideas, your wants have mainstream appeal?
