It’s probably been a year or so since we’ve last heard about a PSP Phone or a concept in these parts, but thanks to Esato board member juris15, the idea gets resurrected. After showing us his cool SE Aino II design, he rebrands it as Aino pro and also creates a Sony Ericsson Aino Playstation concept, shown below (click to enlarge).
The Aino Pro (U10) comes with a full touchscreen display, 720P HD recording, a 3.5mm audio jack, a microUSB connectors and 2 stereo speakers with 3D effect. The Aino Playstation Phone also uses a slide-out section, complete with gaming controls (D-pad, action keys and 2 analog sticks), plus full PSP/PS3 remote play.

Designers must have been so disappointed with Sony’s PSP Go!, that they decided not to create any more PSP Phone or PSP 2 concepts… Esato board user pavlov’s dog breaks the ice and shows us a very neat concept, a PSP Phone, judging by the presence of the Sony Ericsson branding.
Without the side controls (d pad, analog and action buttons) this concept looks just like the PSP Go!, but the additions are welcome, specially if we consider the mess Sony made with their new console. Am I the only one who doesn’t like the PSP Go!?

Esato board user Sealover94 designed a great PSP Phone concept, a sliding device with unknown features and its maker claims that any input is welcome, so you can suggest new features and design traits, if you want. I spot an 8 megapixel camera at the back, also a front videocall camera and I’m betting that the action buttons are hidden beneath the screen.
One might even suppose that this PSP Phone incorporates a sliding QWERTY keypad, maybe even analog sticks (unlikely) and a touchscreen. Tons of memory on board, of course, Bluetooth, WiFi, 3G hopefully and whatnot… What would like to see on this PSP Phone, spec-wise?

We’ve missed showing PSP Phone concepts, specially since they’re all we’ve got right now, because Sony prefers to focus on the their losses and crisis, instead of a potential console/phone.
The PSP Phone 3000 was designed by YouTube user ivanUshline and it packs two sensor analogs that can be used like mini touch pads and a touchscreen display with support for multitouch.
According to the designer, this PSP Phone is very small and it’s also a portable PS3, using Mini Blue Ray disks and the classic Memory Stick Pro Duo. The device is a dual sliding one, so you’ll have to slide to the right to reveal the gaming controls or to the left to reveal the numeric keypad. The “Start”, “Select” and “Home” buttons are now virtual ones, accessible via touchscreen.
What do you think? Is this concept far from reality or is it doable in let’s say 2 years?

Imagine the perfect portable console… Now leave all the thoughts about the PSP behind and check out the concept below. This “iPSPhone”, as we call it, is (obviously) a hybrid between a PSP and the iPhone, but the quality of the final shots is rather poor.
You can call this a PSP Phone if you want, but I’m not sure about its phone features….
Strangely enough, the author of the original post that shows the handset calls the device an “iPhone Slider”, without mentioning any link to the PSP, although there’s a pretty big PlayStation branding between the concept’s directional pads.
The button layout is quite strange, it’s like one set of buttons got repeated and pasted near the first one.

Browsing through the archive of the Esato board concepts, I’ve stumbled upon two hot PSP Phone designs that impressed me. They have quite a lot in common, starting from the color and the fact that they include touchscreen displays.
The first concept belongs to Sealover and it’s a dual sliding device with a 3.2 megapixel camera. It features two analog joysticks and is quite the looker, as you can see for yourself:
The second PSP Phone, pictured below is the creation of pavlov’s_dog and reminds me of an XPERIA handset. This also seems to be a dual sliding device, with a touchscreen, simple interface and as far as I can see no analog joystick. Also the gaming keys are extremely small, but this is an old concept after all…

This Sony Ericsson concept is not, by any means new, as its design follows the trends of the year 2004, or 2005, but still this a hot concept of (maybe) PSP Phone. Dubbed the EF 208, this “Game Terminator” is a Sony Ericsson phone/console for gamers, that features a wide touchscreen, a camera and game controls.
I can see a fighting game on its screen and it’s surely not Tekken… Any ideas?

I’ve seen the PSP Phone more times than I’ve seen my own handset, but sadly only surfacing as a concept. Well, the Sony La Croix blends the gaming functions of the PSP with those of a cellphone and doesn’t call itself a PSP Phone, maybe as a superstition.
Nate Ribbens is the designer of the device that has two modes: a business one and the mode for “youthful gamers”. La Croix features a touchscreen and support for video playback, but sadly when it comes to games it only shows oldies like Tetris or Space Invaders.
Hope it’ll be able to play more complex games, since it has those neat gaming controls and great display.

Sony has apparently filed for a touchscreen PSP patent, or so the word goes round, but no official confirmation till now. We’re dealing with leaked info from the patent office, that mentions a “digital tactile pixels” system used in a phone, media player, web browsing/e-mail device and navigation system.
Sure sounds like a PSP Phone to me, but a touchscreen PSP is just as good.
