Left business in whole europe where they pay taxes.
Less money will be earned by suppliers.

Ever consider this?

    [deleted post]Well, Xperia is the final core division of Sony who has major telecommunications technology inside of it, such as the currently on-role 5G, after Vaio has been sold to another company, and Sony planned to interconnect all of their gadgets with telecommunication to ease usage of goods, and as I say, Xperia is the base of Sony telecommunication. If Xperia/Mobile shutdown, all technology division of Sony outside Xperia, especially famous PlayStation, will have a hard time to implement newer technology, including future 6G or newer WiFi, and IoT in Sony products will be a mess, as no telecommunication division left in Sony. IoT is a thing now, dude, if not perfect, at least presented now...

      [deleted post]Whatever. You can say it until another infinity comes at us unexpectedly. Using XZ Premium and I've been very happy with it.

        James Whister, 10 Feb 2020This shows how much the world is dependent on China. There are sock people outside China already.
        They just want to keep their people safe.

        MWC is a huge event. Imagine if someone that has virus but still does not know yet, goes to the MWC. Could easily spread virus to thousands of people.

          [deleted post]How the heck you can assume to bring down Sony Mobile down if they're now at one division with Alpha at EPS? If you want Sony to shut down Mobile, then all Sony EPS division including Alpha should shut down by your logic...

            [deleted post]True ! My dad bought a brand new Xperia XA2 last year and after the update to Android 9, it has a lot of bugs most of them consist in fake notifications which is super annoying.

              This shows how much the world is dependent on China.

                  Other companies like Samsung, Omnivision and Canon have much inferior tech.

                  Nikon, Panasonic, Fuji, Leica, Hasselblad, Ricoh, Olympus all use Exmor.
                  Many cameras (most compacts) from Canon have exmor too.

                  Many movies are recorded by Sony video cameras.
                  Many TC channels use Sony video cameras.

                  Cars use sony sensors.
                  Security cameras have sony sensors.

Google and the others are just not seeing the bigger potential. Pixel 4 was hated because they didn't even think of using IMX586 which is popular at the time.

                        So Sony's 12MP sensors can still beat Sony's 48MP sensors thanks to companies with perfect camera algorithms like Google, Apple and Samsung?

                          Hildr, 10 Feb 2020Yep, that's why all manufacturers use their sensors into th... moreSony's sensors are not groundbreaking. It's the cameras algorithms and software rendering great imagery.

                          A 12mp sensor still outperforms Sony's 48mp (technically a 12mp x4).

                                      For the first time, Sony is not defending their MWC championship. They're always the Best in MWC starting from XZ Premium which as far as I know.
