The editors didn't like
Middle-of-the-road stability
Weak front camera
Speakers crackle at full volume
Sony's interface overlay feels a bit sloppy at times
Many of the applications that Sony packaged are overkill
Comes with an older version of Android—and you never know when the next software update will be
Ugly
The camera takes awful pictures
Doesn't currently run the latest version of Android
Covers for ports seem flimsy and likely to break off
$499 price a premium compared to alternatives like Nexus 10 or Kindle Fire HD
Display doesn't match the pixel density of competi
$500 for 16GB of storage is a heavy price hike compared with Sony's previous tablet entry
And the tablet's poor network performance and slow app loading cuts into its value. The low-light camera feature isn't as effective as a traditional flash
Design is clean but a little dull
Feels delicate. Slow
Somewhat finicky charging. Mediocre battery life
A bit pricey for the specs
Tinny audio
Weak addon software
Limited connectivity options
Poor sound quality
Waterproof design requires covers on every input
Rubberized back gets fingerprinty
Micro-USB port cover dangles awkwardly when open
Average battery life
Poor cameras
Not the latest version of Android
Screens coloring is off
Everything goes haywire when really wet
$500 for an Android tablet is hard to justify
Runs older version of Android
Google Play store lacks tablet app selection of iPad
