What are the great inventions of Sony?
Many people have mentioned that Sony is going bankrupt, mainly because the market share of Sony mobile phones is not high, and young people don't know enough about this brand. But in fact, Sony's main source of income is not mobile phones at all. Some of its epoch-making works still bring huge profits to Sony today. With these products, Sony's bankruptcy does not exist at all.

One: PlayStation As a gamer, I think Sony's greatest product is PlayStation(PS). This home game machine was released on 1994. Many games are older than many netizens, and my childhood is full of wonderful memories. I remember when I was in the first grade, I passed the arcade hall I often went to after school and found that the boss had set up the TV at the door, and then a group of friends in school uniforms like me were watching it.

Up to now, I still remember the game on the 19 inch TV screen, which is much finer than the arcade screen, especially when the protagonist controlled by the player suddenly rushed out of the door after opening the door. It's obviously June, but I feel chilly behind me. At that time, I heard from my friends that the game was called Castle of the Evil Spirit, which later became the famous Resident Evil.

Since then, my interest in PS has been out of control. Although I usually need to go to school, I don't have much pocket money and have little time to play games. However, I still played many classic games on PS, and what impressed me the most was the summer vacation after graduating from Grade Three. It took me more than a month to finish Final Fantasy 8 in half-baked English.

What is particularly interesting is that once I happened to meet a policeman who raided the game hall. As a minor, the author should have been kicked out, but a police uncle stood behind me for a long time and didn't notice him until I rescued the plane. Later, I guessed that he was probably attracted by the plot of the game. I played so hard that I couldn't bear to kick me out! So I really wanted a PS at that time, but I still didn't get it after so many years. Now that I have a family and a career, I have less and less time to play games. I'm afraid this wish is hard to come true.

Second, the music player/earphone The second thing that impressed me was Walkman, a personal music walkman produced by Sony. When I was in high school, my family bought me a Sony Walkman tape, and later I learned that its scientific name was "Walkman". Because English textbooks used to be played on tape, many post-80s netizens should be like me. The first walkman was obtained in the name of learning, and of course the most useful thing is listening to music.

Although Panasonic, Apple and Samsung have also launched Walkman products, when it comes to this word, most people will think of Sony first. Sony Walkman has been leading the trend of personal music, from the original tape walkman to the later CD and MD, and then to the latest MP3 player. Until today, Sony's players, headphones and other products are still the first choice for many music enthusiasts.

Third, the micro-single Sony is also unique in the imaging field. In addition to professional cameras, in 20 10, Sony introduced the first "micro-single camera" NEX-5 between SLR cameras and card cameras.

and

NEX-3 ushered in the era of professional camera portability! Compared with the card camera commonly used by ordinary people in the past, the CMOS sensor of micro-single camera is larger and can replace different kinds of lenses like SLR. At the same time, the micro camera is lighter and easier to carry than the SLR camera, so it has become the first choice for many photographers.

Although well-known camera manufacturers such as Panasonic, Olympus, Fuji, and even Nikon and Canon have imitated Sony to launch their own miniature single camera, it is mentioned that "micro-single" is Sony's patent, and only Sony cameras can use this name. On the other hand, Sony's technical experience in the imaging field has also been applied to the mobile phone industry. At present, most smart phones, including Apple, are using Sony's photosensitive components. It can be said that without Sony, it would be difficult for us to buy a smart phone that can take pictures.
