Sounds like make believe to me.

Seriously, as others have said, this kind of marketing hooplah is exactly where SE don't want to be investing right now. The concept is essentially meaningless, the branding wide open to misinterpretation, and as carkitter says this kind of corporate guff is likely to alienate far more people than it attracts. People want solid, innovative, carefully conceived products, not to be deafened by pointless and empty sloganeering.

Xperia, Walkman, Cybershot, Entertainment Unlimited, PlayNow, make.believe - how many more labels can they fit on the box?

Design a good range of phones and let the quality talk for itself, that always used to work..

from my observations, sometimes it's better off not knowing.

‘make.believe’ unites Sony’s communication efforts across electronics, games, movies, music, mobile phones and network services. Sony has stated that ‘Believe’ is the power of inspiration, while ‘make’ is about crafting inspiration into products and experiences for our consumers. The ‘dot’ is the place where they meet.

@WhiteEye and Juris:

From your post it seems like Sony and are starting to work as one company. perhaps it would take them time before we can see the results of pursing this unified slogan.

And this is definitely when things will really start being interesting. Also hmm is it me or are the hopes of the SE logo being with a light inside becoming a reality?

Hey I'm all for it man. I really want Se to strive and become king again. If things can get more Sony shabang technology wise and SE hell yes with pricing we can get some winners.

Just think about what you're saying here. SE have announced a slogan - or at least sworn allegiance to a slogan dreamt up by some marketing people at Sony Corp. That's all. They haven't actually achieved anything, they haven't made any promises to anyone, they haven't invented anything or created anything new, they've just repeated some words that someone in marketing thought sounded neat.

We (as customers) should show moral support for that? Pat them on the back and say well done? Promise to buy their next phone now that it's going to include the words "make.believe" in the advert?

Give over.
