Imagine if Apple never took there spot in the tech world, Sony would be OP.

Jumanji was also a great surprise hit for them
Obviously ps4 is selling well

.

Steve Jobs wanted to make Sony VAIOs with Mac OS on them because he loved their laptops (and Sony hardware in general) so much. They said no!! :damn:

Then Apple blew up and you can tell the classic Sony design philosophy influenced Apple’s MacBooks, even down to the proprietary ports :troll:

Then Sony sold VAIO :francis:

How’s their camera division?:lupe:
shyt from what I can tell, they got the rest of the industry shook cause of how feature packed their mirrorless cameras are. Canon and Nikon are scrambling to keep up with them.

Just copped that A7iii last week

Yeah, their insurance business is solid. And Jumanji absolutely exceeded expectations, but that counted towards last Fiscal year ends March 31st annualy for them.

I just wish their glass was cheaper.

But Nikon and Canon might have an edge with their long line of glass and native adapters.
I’m rooting for Sony here, but this department has me like :lupe:

I think the reason why Nikon and Canon are behind in the mirrorless side is because they would have to develop new glass to support a new system.

But yes, the glass prices had me like :sadcam: after I decided to pull the trigger

What's their TV offerings looking like these days?

Planning to upgrade various electronics in 2020. Getting at least a 65" TV.

Best option is their OLED. Same LG panel, Sony electronics. I don't personally think that's worth the price differential over an LG, but that's just my opinion :hubie:
