In the old days, when Sony still had the rights to use the VAIO brand, the company was working on a special smartphone. Sony Ericsson VAIO was supposed to be something special – something that was to distinguish this manufacturer from others. Did not work.
Sony Ericsson VAIO was real
In 2010, about the existence of a mysterious prototype Sony Ericsson VAIO It was said more than once, but such a device never hit the market. In light of this, some have put the VAIO smartphone reports among fairy tales. It turns out to be wrong. After so many years, details about the Sony prototype come to light.
Editors XDA Developers has reached an exemplary device that could have made a furore on the smartphone market 10 years ago. Sony Ericsson VAIO it had a 5.5-inch tilt screen (which at that time was a really large working space) and a retractable, physical QWERTY keyboard.
Apparently, the device was supposed to be something like a gadget that complements Sony VAIO laptops – in situations where a non-touch keyboard was needed, such a gadget could be perfect. The equipment from the photos ran under Android 2.1 Eclair.
A Sony that lacks shine
Some older Tablet Readers probably remember the glory days of Sony (and earlier – Sony Ericsson). Perhaps Sony Ericsson VAIO would be something special in the company’s offer, but there is a good chance that it would end up unhappy Xperia Play, which was supposed to be a real gaming smartphone, and it sold so poorly that the manufacturer never decided to produce it Xperii Play 2. We’ll never know that.
Currently Sony, although it produces really very much cool smartphones (as you can see even by reading reviews Xperii 5 II), he no longer earns as much on his mobile department as he used to. The former glory has passed, and the likes of projects Sony Ericsson VAIO simply a waste of time and satin.
A smartfony VAIO have their manufacturer, but Sony is no longer one.
