E-mount cameras, lenses, and camcorders are commonly used by enthusiasts and professionals.

They include the Sony Bravia hi-definition television using LED, full-array LED, and OLED technologies, premium video projectors (including laser projectors), and a broad range of Hi-Fi products, headphones, and recording equipment.

Today, Sony's legendary Walkman series music players, which enjoyed immense success in the 1980s and 1990s, completes Sony's home entertainment lineup.

Sony's mobile business started in 2001 as a joint venture between Sony and Ericsson. Far from its height of popularity in the 2000s, Sony currently focuses on the Xperia series premium smartphones.
