Well folks for those who are of a mind to snap up the first PlayStation phone, namely the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, we have an unboxing video of the gaming centric smartphone for your viewing consideration below.

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Play is dutifully unwrapped by the guys over at Phone Arena and just happens to be a white Xperia Play, which I believe is exclusive to O2 in the UK once it becomes available although currently the release has been postponed by O2.

The guys say that slide out game pad on the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play is smooth with a relatively quiet click, and they remove the back plate to check out the battery, which is1500mAh and of course go through all the usual associated with an unboxing.

Earlier we posted a review video of the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, which doesn’t plaint that good a picture of the handset so you may wish to check that out as well by hitting up (here).

Other than that, if you enjoy the traditional unboxing of a new smartphone head on down, hit that play button and enjoy, and if you are thinking about picking up the Android 2.3 Gingerbread Xperia Play we’d love to know so drop us a comment as to why you want the gaming smartphone above any other.
