Sony Unveils Xperia Tablet Z in Japan

Sony Mobile Japan has announced the Xperia Tablet Z this morning and it looks to be a well-rounded package. First off, it is one of the thinnest and lightest 10.1-inch tablets on the market, coming in at just 6.9mm in thickness and weighing 495g. This makes it even thinner than the iPad mini. What’s even more amazing is that the tablet manages to pack in both water and dust resistance at this size.

In terms of hardware, the Xperia Tablet Z runs on a 1.5GHz quad-core processor (expected to be the APQ8064 Snapdragon with Adreno 320 graphics) and comes with Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean out of the box. The 10.1-inch tablet has a 1920 x 1200 (WUXGA) resolution Reality display with 16:10 aspect ratio. The tablet also features Mobile Bravia Engine 2 as seen in its new Xperia smartphones.

Other features include a back-illuminated 8.1MP Exmor R camera, S-FORCE Front Surround 3D (surround sound), NFC and LTE. Whilst not explicitly listed in the press release, we expect the tablet to have 32GB of storage, 2GB of RAM, a microSD memory card slot, Bluetooth 4.0 and a 6000mAh battery.

The Sony Xperia Tablet Z is expected to launch in Japan this Spring in both white and black colours. We expect the tablet to be carried by NTT DoCoMo when it announces its Spring showcase tomorrow.

Sony Xperia Tablet Z C690X ‘Pollux’ Specifications Leaked

Sony unveiled the Xperia Z smartphone during CES, and well, it looks like a “Z” tablet may also be in the works. The details have yet to be confirmed by Sony, however it is looking as if they are getting ready to announce the Tablet Z. The tablet is expected to have a 10.1-inch Full HD display and arrive during the second quarter of 2013.

Aside from an HD display, the Tablet Z is also said to feature a quad-core 1.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of internal storage, A 6000 mAh battery, 2.2 megapixel front-facing camera and an 8.1 megapixel rear-facing camera. Other goodies will include NFC, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 and LTE connectivity.

The tablet should arrive running Jelly Bean. At the time of these details, that is said to be Android 4.1.2. Otherwise, the Tablet Z is expected to have a design that is similar to the Xperia Z smartphone. And taking that another step further, the Tablet Z will also be waterproof and dustproof with IP5X and IP57 ratings.

Aside from the specs, the tablet is currently sporting a codename of “Pollux” and with a model number of SO-03E  for NTT DoCoMo in Japan & C690X in the West. The Tablet Z is expected to arrive first in Japan and then later in other markets. That all being said, keep in mind these are early leaks which means details can and likely will change before an official announcement. Of course, even as it stands, these specs would be a decent improvement over the Tablet S which featured a 1280 x 800 display, Tegra 3 processor and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
