Yes, it's about money. Why would it not be? I am a fan and loyal to no company and what I want - when I invest - is to make money. Spinning off and selling SPE will give me better return on my investment, why would I not want it? I have been wanting it for awhile, but Sony is stubborn. Their movie division has been struggling more and more in the last few years, both financially and in marketshare. They need to dump the movie division asap.
So you would have wanted Sony to spin off/ dump PS division during the PS3 generation when they were losing billions?
This year don't.
XZs and XZ Premium isn't a better phone against other flagships this year. Unless you really like the design.
They keep half-assing the camera and in the US it doesn't come with a fingerprint sensor.
What? 5.5" 4K HDR, SD850, 4gb ram, 64gb storage/micro SD expansion. And has probably most optimized Android, with the lowest crash rate. The Xperia XZ Premium is really competitive. Some are just complaining about the bezels.
Camera is also quite competitive too, especially video. And the fingerprint sensor is only disabled in the US. Just need to flash to international firmware to re-enable it.
