MWC – Sony Xperia Z Tablet hands on

The big announcement for Sony this year at MWC is in the form of the Xperia Z Tablet, a tablet which looks very much the same design language as seen on the Xperia Z flagship phone.

It is clear that Sony want to create a top end suite of Z products under the Xperia brand and with the handset and the tablet being the start they have certainly got off to a great start.

Sony also like showing off their water resistant feature of the Z and have it in a glass box with a button that dunks it into water and then back over again.  And yes you can keep pressing it time after time to keep dunking it over and over

Enjoy……. I did!
