Well, that was quick. It was just two days ago when the elusive PlayStation Phone popped up on a Hong Kong forum, and now it's back again in full exposure thanks to Chinese website IT168. It's now confirmed that said Xperia-branded device is powered by a Qualcomm Adreno 205 GPU, along with what's likely to be a 1GHz Snapdragon QSD8255 as featured on the HTC Desire HD. Interestingly, Neocore is reporting an impressive 59.1fps benchmark, which is a huge improvement from our exclusive look back in early December. Quadrant also reports a high score of 1,733, but hey, there's no saying that this is the final build, so the graphics performance may get even better.

Other tidbits found in the latest leak include the generous battery capacity of 1,500mAh, the 854 x 480 resolution on a 4-inch LCD, a 5 megapixel autofocus camera with LED flash sans 720p video recording (although it's probably just that the leaksters didn't look in all the submenu in the camera app), 512MB RAM, 512MB ROM, a microSD slot, SIM slot, micro-USB, and a second mic on the back for active noise cancellation à la Nexus One. Interestingly, the still-empty game launcher app is now called "PlayStation Pocket." We're still unclear just what the app will run; will it be PSOne games (the company has written an emulator before), PSP games, or an entirely new lineup? (In contrast, the PSP Go has a 333MHz processor, 64MB RAM, and a 3.8-inch 480 x 272 display -- this phone should definitely be capable of handling the PSP material.) Hopefully we'll know soon enough, eh Kaz? Anyhow, you can peruse some pictures and videos below, and definitely check out IT168 for the full skinny on this (somewhat tick) device.

so anyone interested?

some videos

I do need to get a smart phone- but I need to see more before I make any final decisions

i say wait for a ZEUS 2 later in the year with PSP2 integrated

thats what i am waiting for

This is definitely the phone for me.  I've been wanting a smart phone with Android.  But one with PS support and controls is exactly what I want.  I hope it can play some PS2 games as well. 

BTW, does anyone know if there are emulators for Android?  If so, for what systems?

PS2 is surely not happening

if it isn't on PS3 then hell no on PSP

and with them making so much money on HD CLASSICS and rumoured FINAL FANTASY,METAL GEAR SOLID HD COLLECTIONS,don't count on it.

the best chance of PS2 BC coming will be on PSP2 and later on PS3

I'm not buying a new phone until late next year (my Fascinate is perfect for now), however, if this comes to Verizon it may be this phone.

Granted, its missing a couple features I want in my next phone like front camera and dual core processor.
