Whenever we hear about a new smartphone, the word “exclusive” springs to mind. That appears to be a thing of the past. The new Sony Ericsson Xperia Play will not be exclusive to Verizon only, says that Sony Ericcson CTO. Unlike Apple, he stated that the phone will go to other carriers in time. However, he didn’t mention any dates.
The Sony Ericsson brand is known in Europe better, where all phones are GSM-based. Since Verizon uses the different standard, it also requires more work for the company. However, because of the upcoming European release, Sony should have a GSM model for America soon enough.
The CTO also shared that unlike other phone manufactures, Sony has plans to keep the Android OS updated. Sounds like Sony Ericsson is serious about making a splash in the US smartphone market.
