The editors didn't like
Overpriced
Relatively weak Wi-Fi performance
Sony has filled the interface up with so much pre-loaded software that it looks cluttered before you've even downloaded your first app. Opting for a higher resolution display would help it compete against many of its rivals

PS4 streaming feature was uneven
Battery life not as good as iPad MIni
Overheats on 4K
Low display resolution
High price
Just average backfacing camera quality
Battery could last longer
Inaccurate display

Neat little movie tab, Waterproof, Great battery life, Expandable storage
You can get an iPad Mini 2 for £240, Not all Android apps are optimised, Sony pushes some services
