Sony has announced its financial report. Trending on the internet are many games for the PS4, which is its game console and one of the main money source. Therefore, a big part of Sony’s profit comes from this market. Moreover, as their camera technology is always the top, Sony earns much from camera sensors as well. Their music department also contributed a lot. What’s more interesting to know is that their smart phones aren’t making much.
This could be predicted since Sony Xperia Z3+ / Sony Xperia Z4 could not sell as much as Sony expected them to. Until the end of June 30, Sony claimed that they have earned $14.5 billion. While game consoles are making more money in the future as China 14-year ban on consoles will soon be lifted, other departments still cannot keep up.
Sony Xperia Z3+ specs, though awesome, still cannot make much money for Sony
Mobile sales face a loss of $184 million, which is 16% even worse than last year. It seems Sony is making a new turn in the smart phone market too. They stated that they won’t follow the competition anymore, but focus on their sales instead. This means only their flagship Z series will continue its way. We don’t know if this works, but if it doesn’t then Sony will keep losing in the market world.
Will Sony make its sales go up with their next phone, Sony Xperia Z5?
Whatever it is, Sony is still making money with their camera sensors. A lot of flagships nowadays sport Sony’s camera sensors. Therefore, they stated that they will invest more on this department. Maybe then, their smart phones sales can be better and better as well.
