It should be trivial to run the built-in official 'console' software on another Android phone (with adequate hardware specs), correct?

- andrerobot 16y agoOnly if Sony doesn't do a thing to lock the software up. Maybe they could add SPUs to the phone, or something that would lock the software to the platform.
- feral 16y agoI'd be surprised if they don't have custom graphics hardware, of some sort, in there - I imagine the last thing Sony wants is to commoditise themselves by providing the same hardware platform as normal Android phones. Even if they don't have custom hardware, I'd be shocked if they didn't have some sort of silicon DRM to stop the software running elsewhere.
- wmf 16y agoIt's pretty much the same Qualcomm hardware as every other Android phone (plus the physical controller). I agree that Sony will probably break new ground in Android lockdown.
