Sony Q2 2012 results out
7.4 million smartphones shipped in Q2. Full year forecasr 34 million.
Mobile & PC business combined under loss. So can't really asses much about Sony Mobile as its been merged with Vaio division.

Meh, for a company coming off the large losses from the past several years we can't expect a full turn around to profit in just 3 months. Kaz has been taking a lot of steps to move Sony in the right direction and hopefully we will start to see the fruits of this effort as we approach the holidays.

I guess I was right then, randomuser? I have been pretty spot-on with regards to business decisions, not only when it comes to Sony/Sony Ericsson but others as well.
Sony has next year to really come to the party. If they can't prove that they can compete with Samsung then they are in for a shock.
Their entrant into the mobile arena as Sony Mobile starts in January 2013.
I remember questioning their 40 million per annum forecast, I believe I said they are going to fall short and now they have revised that figure. My figure was around 36 or was it 38 million?

And Sony is going down ? Well buddy you are absolutely wrong. Sony mobile sales are going really strong, best in many years in fact. You will see the numbers come August 2 when Sony announces Q2 earnings.
Well, randomuser, do you have anything to tell me? Or, it seems, I was right once again? Sony is going down and no one can convince me otherwise.

They didn't do too well but these numbers are still better compared to last year. So no Sony isn't going DOWN. Last year Sony Ericsson shipped only 22 million smartphones in 12 months. This year Sony is already at 15.5 in six months.

I feel there is not much competition offered by them for the rest of the fiscal year sony since they have reduced their sales forecast. In any case I feel things will look better for sony than their past. The losses have been significantly reduced so far. Their aquisition of

was only recently completed. If we look at the release date of gx(this weekend in japan) as compared to the announcement of ICS, their product developement seems to be about a year. So its possible that the new phones under sony will not be here before march 2013. But realistically, 2nd half of 2013 is where I bet they will be really competitive.
