Fun fact: the first version of Minecraft pocket edition released for this phone in 2011.

No views in thirty seconds? That's actually perfectly understandable, as people have commitments, and may not want to watch this video right away.

Owned it in highschool, the joysticks were a crime against humanity but the integrated dpad made gameboy/GBA emulators heaven to play at school instead of doing classwork.

Imagine being on a dinner date and your date said “hold on, Mr. PlayStation is calling me” and pulled this thing out

The day Scott runs out of things to talk about is the day the world combusts.

This device had such potential. It's a shame Sony decided to just phone it in

Were it me I'd be planning a rescue mission for my SD card using sewing needles and possibly glue

It doesn't feel right watching someone talk about mid 2000s nugget phones without a green iPad.

I wanted one of these so BAD as a kid, but by the time I wanted one they were already outdated. The PS controls were just too enticing.

Waiting for the Nintendo phone that has interchangeable face plates and Zelda

Nothing says Scott the Woz more than wasting 256GB of storage just because he can't be bothered to take it out of the wrong slot

scott do you smoke weed

It's still so crazy to me that no modern gaming phones have ripped off the Xperia. With GameCube and PS2 emulation performing very well on Android, and people already used to phones getting larger, there's no time better than right now for one IMO. There's a bunch of standalone android handhelds too, none with that added phone functionality.

This is a device that you really needed to buy it at launch.






Because it actually fucking worked.

I've said it for years now. Sony should revisit this. A modern gaming smartphone   with a slide up screen with controls. I would pick that up.

12:04 holy crap guys, face reveal!!!

A lot of phones of this era actually required a valid sim card for a lot of their functions, especially online features. I wonder if Scott could've actually gotten some functionality out of this if he hadn't fumbled the sim/microSD card thing.

This “PlayStation Phone” got me thinking of two things on opposing sides. On one hand, it makes sense when you consider PlayStation was done by Sony, who makes phone-like products, but on the other hand, it doesn’t make sense due to the fact that there was already the PSP, which was more accessible.

I remember this being woefully underpowered compared to other phones at the time. Like, considering it was supposed to be a gaming phone it had a hard time running games at the time.
