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

Different, elegant design, Waterproof, Good overall performance, Satisfactory battery life, Picture quality on the "Full HD" screen

As far as tablets go, the Sony Xperia Tablet Z certainly hits the ideal talking points—light, thin, and somewhat child resistant, the Z makes a strong case for itself in an iPad-dominated market. If you often use your tablet as a means to share photos, vi...

Powerful performance, Great looking screen, Slim and sleek exterior
Soso camera, PlayStation Mobile still lacking, Screen gets mussy easily
When it comes to first impressions, the Xperia Tablet Z impresses in every aspect. When you first pick it up, you wonder if there's actually anything to it, as it's ridiculously light at just 0.49kg, meaning if you chuck it in a bag you might forget it's even in there.

The Xperia Tablet Z is easily the best tablet that Sony has made to date, and could pinch the crown for best Android tablet thanks to its gorgeous display, super-thin design and ultra light weight. Unfortunately, it's let down by its tinny speakers and...
