We all remember how Sony sold its VAIO PC business earlier this year to JIP, in an attempt to focus on mobile exclusively. As a result, we now have a Sony Corporation that launches Xperia smartphones, and there is also a separate VAIO Corporation, of which Sony still owns a small 5%. We sadly don’t know if there is any collaboration between both companies, but we do hear that there is some competition on the way.Japanese sources claim that the VAIO Corporation will launch its first Android smartphone at CES 2015. This VAIO-branded smartphone is rumored to be an affordable device, and sport specifications like a 5-inch display of undisclosed resolution, it will run Android, and it will apparently feature a unique application that can handle your mail, phone and video calls all together. Apparently this device will focus on the Japanese market though, with a rumored partnership with mobile virtual network operator Japan Communications.We’ll be covering CES 2015 as of late this week, so stay tuned as we try to figure out how real these rumors are.
