Xperia Play won't support Ice Cream Sandwich
Sony Mobile has announced that it will not be releasing a build of Android 4.0 - Ice Cream Sandwich - for the Xperia Play. The company's flagship gaming phone apparently couldn't be made to support "a consistent and stable experience, particularly with gaming". Android 4.0 will roll out across the rest of the Xperia range this week - but none of those have a proper D-pad installed. Woe.
