Hi Guyz,
I have come down to 2 phones .
My budget is 23k max .
1> SE Xperia Play
2> Galaxy R
I will be using the phone for atleast 2.5yrs until my graduation is over . This is my last investment on a phone
According to hardware specs its an obvious answer = Galaxy R
But the psp controls and the looks is pulling me towards Xperia Play .
So , Guyz plz I ask for your suggestions and thoughts .
Any other inputs regarding other mobile in that range will also help
Thanks in advance ,

If you mentioned the currency you use you would probably get better answers...
Well you said it yourself. The Xperia PLAY isn't as powerful, but it has a gamepad. The Galaxy R is slightly more powerful, but has no gamepad. It's up to you as to which suits you better. Personally, I think the Xperia PLAY is plenty powerful, and I love the physical gamepad. The PLAY is a bit thicker too, but that's to be expected because of its slide-out pad. If you simply want a phone that can do some other things on the side, don't get the PLAY. If you want a phone that can also easily play games, get the PLAY.
Emulators bro and old school fighting games and possibly newer ones . When you look into the android market it's like 90% games optimized for xperia play. Where do you see Galaxy R ? But that was a duche baggy marketing line.
If you Galaxy R you;'ll have a better screen, a better build quality, a better hardware set ( a bit more future proof) but you will never have the retro gaming experience the Xperia play has. Also many new games are being optimized for the play so you won't have problems for a while playing new games
Neither Xperia play nor Galaxy R
Wait for XPERIA PLAY 2
the xperia play is a good phone for emulators, gba roms etc. im planning to keep my play for a long time as i sold my psp and the let down of the sony vita.
if you just want a phone buy a average phone, if you want to play games get a play, the samsung looks great but you dont need all that hardware unless your playing games but then you lack a controller, gta3 is great on a play, abit of lag but its better than using the touch screen controls,i couldnt imagine clocking castlevania or many of my nes games with touchscreen.
23,000 Rupees indictates that the Play has not had a price reduction in India like it did in Europe. The Galaxy R is the better phone by and large, and I'd take it over the Play.
The controls are nice on the Play, shame emulators dont really support the touchpads.
Guyz whats the best deal for xperia play (GSM) ...
mostly in USA and UK ...
Those are the only places from where I can bring ...

Yep. PSP games aren't even possible hardware wise. About 10x the power of the original system is needed to emulate the games on a computer.

Sony hasn't backed out on any of its promises yet.
1)Sony's still on track for ICS , they said at the end of may/early June.
2)Sony have never promised they would put any psp games on the xperia play although we do have loco roco. They said the playstation suite would come which may have psp games - this will be released in an update - they did not give us a date of when this would happen so they have not broken any promises.
3)There's plenty of Xperia exclusive games, virtua tennis,fifa 12,Lode runner etc etc.
4)Sony has never said they would make an xperia play 2.
5)Please move onto the galaxy s3, you're nothing but a nuisance in this forum, constantly asking for psp games,xperia play 2's etc.
6)Sony does use its "game experience" as the playstation emulator wouldn't be possible without it.
Finally, its your fault for buying a phone without reading up on it, Sony don't owe you anything.
Edit- Urgh thanked him accidentally while clicking quote -_-.
I find it kind of ironic that people play on gaming centric phone and handle it as "playstation phone" while they care and demand high end specs when playstation 3 is pretty low spec'd in todays market
Consoles have never been beasts in graphical category.ö
But I think its pretty obvious, we have the base for Xplay so it doesnt cost so much and isnt "delayed" in terms of specs, we also can speculate that next Xplay will be released when the hardware is mature enough to emulate PSP and PS2 games.
I dont remember that sony ever promised PSP games, you can expect them to release PSP games at same timespan as any orher Top quality AAA PSP games would be released. Portting is essentialy recreating majority of the code for new platform.

Another dumb post by mehdi.moha
ICS is the only promised thing as well as playstation integration both of which are on their way.... If you ask me sony is making the same mistakes sega did they dont offer enough games for their hardware the most successful console ever was probably the ps2 and that was because it offered backwards compatibility so you had the new awesome games and the old ones. Personally I think that before they made the play they should have already ported psp games and ps1 games and a few ps2 games and then also there would have been xperia play optimised games.
As for the xperia play 2 sony has adamently said there are no plans! NONE. But it is likely that they will eventually make a new one.

Xperia Play 2??? The Xperia Play 1 has aprox. 1 year of life! You already want another one? Stop using the mobiles as things for being used a short time. A mobile should have 3 years of use, not less of one. Do you know how much natural resources are needed to make a mobile??? Stop being so materialistic!
Before buying your Xperia Play you should had informed about what hardware it has, now don't cry because it hasn't got dual core, more RAM, etc. Learn to enjoy what you have!

You are confusing two different compannies: Sony Ericsson (SE) and Sony Computer Entertainment (SCE). Son Ericsson is the one that made the Xperia Play while Sony Computer Entertainment just helped on its developing (the gaming controls, apps like Playstation Suite, etc.). This means it is NOT a console, it is a mobile that allows to play mobile games more comfortably with its game controls. The "Playstation Certified" logo is just an accessory that promises that this device will recieve the Playstation Suite and SOME content from the Playstation Store.
I hate like you companies like Gameloft, but think a bit, you seriously think that big gaming companies (Square Enix, Capcom, etc.) will make an super exclusive title like (for example) a Final Fantasy or a Kingdom Hearts for a device that not so much people have (in comparison with a portable console like the N3DS or the PSVita)? Do you know how much money would they lose?
That's why you don't see super-duper exclusive games like in a console, because the money and because its not a damn console!!!
BUT
You are wrong if you think SCE is not helping with its long experience in the gaming industry. If you would had been more informed you would know about the Playstation Suite Software Developer Kit (SDK), wich is already in open beta since a month ago. This SDK will allow companies and users to create exclusive content to all devices that have the Playstation Certified seal (the PSVita, the Xperia Play, and the two Sony tablets, for now). Isn't this helping with game experience???

I was thinking of getting a Samsung galaxy note 2 and rooting it, install sixaxis and then buying a ps3 controller together with an OTG cable . To play games and have the playstation feel with a much better device . That way I will be able to play all my favourite hd games without any lags,overclocking ,light roms,tweaks and whatever . Is this a good idea. The xperia play has reached its limit isn't it time to move on ? Android games are fast developing and the xperia play cannot keep up. Very soon it won't be able to play better Android games. Please share your thoughts.

I think you are right Xperia PLAY is dying everyday but HEY! what's the matter? This phone is and it will be a classic
Lol sixaxis + any android device is destined to fail to certain degree. Can both of these things in the same pocket i doubt it great for home use btw. But I do agree with 1 thing though it is hardware limted :sigh:.
I'd rather have a 480p single core device with physical buttons than a 1080p quad core device without physical buttons.
I think you catch my drift.
Yes they are better in gaming, much better in the pocket.
Xperia Play is a Legendary Phone no matter what! :laugh:
Yea the note 2 is an amazing device and I want so bad but I read that the "Exenos" (sorry for spelling) is not as good at gaming as snapdragon,snapdragon has been the best for gaming mainly because companies like gameloft built there games on snapdragon chipset and are basicly incompatible on tegra 2 and all right on sammies "exenos" chip set....but that's just a thought

and don't forget that chainfire 3d does not officially work on ics and later versions. I know that the galaxy note 10.1 gets into a boot loop when installed on jellybean. But at this point, any cellphone + a portable controller is better than the xperia play but the xperia play is just way more convenient. I should know, cause I swap between 2 cellphones, the xperia play and galaxy note 10.1, daily. I just can't give up the portability of the play.
I have my xperia play and my galaxy tab 10.1. I use my xperia play for gaming. I do not game on the tab. Hate touch screen gaming. Although I have considered hooking up my Xbox controller. There's an article here on xda tobuse an old original Xbox controller on ics/jb tablet.

I am sorry I dont get the point of doing this with such a great effort
what is the point?
You are sitting in front of a desk, you hold a ps3 controller, and you look at a 5 inch screen and play some games on a device powered with battery.
May I ask? why not use that controller and play with ps3 with a 47inch TV?
It's all about mobility!
at home I play PC Games and I dont need this kind of configuration. It's silly to sit at home and play on a 5 inch screen.
On the train or bus, yes I need to play with a controller and I need to make calls. but i will never take ps3 controller with me.
this is the point of buying xperia play!
i was just wondering the BEST DS emulator that anyone has played with on a xperia play, not the best one youve heard of, one uve used.

I haven't tried any DS emulators, but I think it's probably best to leave that to an actual DS Lite or XL with an Acekard 2i for all the games you need.
I love the Xperia Play for GBA games, though!
I actually started revisiting my DS Lite usage, and bought a DS XL for cheap, and the Acekard 2i plays all the games on it flawlessly.
Edit: Sorry, the reason I say it's probably best to leave it to an actual DS is that our phone doesn't have 2 screens!
Too slow

I here DS emulation is a tad slow on all devices. And the guy above's comment is true too. Keep looking!, and let us know how it goes. Also have you tried installing a custom rom to boost up the speed of the emulator?
Ive tried dsdroid and dsoid. Pokemon is slow on both for xplay but it runs a little faster on my nexus 10. But with tablets it stretches out the game so both ways are no go. On xplay all ds emulators are slow. I've tried at least 3 or 4. You'll need a higher end device and even then you won't be able to play very smooth and without sound. But maybe within a year it will work better since most new devices are a lot more powerful

i have nds4droid or something like that but i have lag...
Im considering buying the phone, im coming from an old ****ty blackberry. All I want to do is:
1) Make phonecalls
2) Be able to play games properly (touchscreen gaming is retarded). I want emulators (SNES, Megadrive, Neogeo, PSX...) and some ports from classic game like DoomGLES or the Duke Nukem 3D one.
3) No need to carry a Gametel/similar device and attach it in your phone everytime you want to play/detach it everytime you want to put it back to your pocket
The only 2 problems i have with the phone:
1) Carmageddon is the most hardware demanding game I want to play. I love this game so I want smooth gameplay. I was about to buy the device when I saw this video:
youtube dot com/watch?v=1Mrbrk8MU_Q
The performance is **** (20fps) even if it's OCd to 1.5 (I dont want to OC a smartphone to consume more battery life).
The weird thing is, i've heard some people saying it plays smooth on their Xperia Play even at stock speed, which is really weird. Anyone that has an Xperia Play can test the game and ideally upload a video? (it may be smooth for you in that video, but for me it's crap)
Also I would like if someone can confirm if the controls work using GameKeyboard.
Here is a free demo:
play dot google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stainlessgames.carmageddonfree&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5zdGFpbmxlc3NnYW1lcy5jYXJtYWdlZGRvbmZyZWUiXQ
Here is the full version if you want to buy it:
play dot google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stainlessgames.carmageddon&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zdGFpbmxlc3NnYW1lcy5jYXJtYWdlZGRvbiJd
Here is GameKeyboard:
play dot google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.locnet.gamekeyboard&hl=en
2) The second problem I have is, im not sure if the screen of this device is good enough. On this video comparation, it looks pretty crappy next to the Galaxy S3:
youtube dot com/watch?v=siCskfSR8dc
The colours look so off. Also, you guys experiencie problems when trying to use it outdoors? (reflections, sun etc...) I remember with the original PSP, it was pretty useless outdoors.
Also, I discovered this device recently:
youtube dot com/watch?v=fI-5lzYeWpY
This could be an Xperia Play killer. The only reason to get an Xperia Play is for the sliding attached gamepad, the rest is outdated, but finally someone got this right and made a gamepad that is attached to the actual phone and you don't need to remove it everytime you want to put the phone on your pocket. The problem is, it's for the Iphone, we don't even know when it will be out for Android and what devices they will be supporting, and we don't know if it will be useable with emulators, ports and third party stuff with gamekeyboard or it will be locked to a certain list of ****ty modern games.
Thanks
Help please, is just too confusing. Some people are saying "yeah, it works perfect". Then on that video, it works really bad.
The play is good for everything you wanted but you are right its limited by hardware so newer games won't work so well on it

Im really confused, because some people say the game is smooth (for me, smooth is 60 fps) but this guy as tried it with the Xperia Play overclocked to 1.5ghz and it goes sometimes to 12 or so fps during crashes, it really sucks.
If the Xperia Play can play this game smoothly then I will buy it, if not, im not really sure what im going to do. I may wait for Bladepad to come out for android, so I pick up a S3 for a good price + this:
This could be the Xperia Play killer. Imagine the hardware of the S3/S4/Nexus + sliding pad. But im not sure when it will come out for Android, if it will be useable for non officially supported games... etc.

Ok the game was laggy at stock clock bit overclocked to 1.4 ghz min. 249 with gin2jellybean rom it ran at a pretty playable speed but id say to be better of with a newer phone because there is still some slight lag at some points like when another cast hits you. But id say its still worth it just for the awesome emulators since all of them work great and there's even a psp emulator with some games that are playable. If you can find one at a reasonable price like 50-100 dollars id say you should get it

Damn. I dont know what to do now. I really love that game, but love the built in gamepad for the Xperia... if the Bladepad comes soon for Android I may regret buying a Xperia..

Well what's your budget? Im sure you can find a cheap one on eBay and then still be able to buy a newer phone later and sell the xperia. If you overclock to 1.5 the game is playable very smoothly but again the play doesn't have the best looking screen compared to others so even then you might not enjoy it as much. Also that game didn't support the gamepad you have to use touchscreen and it was hard on a 4 inch screen so there's no point in the play for that game

I could spend like 150€ tops, not more.
You said 50-100, but the cheapest I can find in Ebay is 127€, used and + shipping

There was someone on xda willing to sell theirs for 50$. Try looking on amazon. Since you're in Europe ( I'm assuming because your using euros) then you might not find it at that price but ill look for a cheap one on line and link you to it

I cant find anything on Amazon or Ebay for that price
The only cheaper phone that could maybe (i don't relly know) handle the games is the HTC First. It has better specs than the Xperia Play and costs only 100€. But it doesn't have a gamepad. If you're looking for another phone with a gamepad, you won't find any because the Xperia Play is the only one
I realized why you couldn't find any cheap ones. It's because your in Europe and need the gsm ones. I found 2 Xperia plays on craigslist for 100$ but they were r800x's so they won't work in Europe because that version is cdma

R800x is cdma so it only works in America while r800i is gsm which uses a SIM card so it works worldwide
