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. While it might be a spacious 10.1-inch tablet
Sony has spared no expense in making sure it feels like it weighs absolutely nothi

Pale flat screen
Parts under hatches
Mediocre performance
Poor battery life
Skinny design results in flex
Doesn't challenge rivals in sheer power and speed
Sony has put a lot of effort into its Xperia Tablet Z

Despite the supreme hardware
Sony has managed to drop the ball on the software side of things
Stuffing its thin slate with spammy apps like Sony Select
PlayNow
Wi-Fi Checker
Garage and SocialLife
Which can all be sent straight to the bin - but that won't free up much
The odd lag

Display not as scratchproof as rivals

Water causes the touchscreen to register activity
Large bezel
Glossy finish is bad for outdoor use
Sharp edges can make the tablet uncomfortable to hold
Chassis flexes
Colours are a little warm
Old version of Android
The battery life isn't quite on a par with rivals and the screen

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...

Fast processor, excellent screen, very slim and light, water and dust resistant, quality cameras
Camera has no flash
