MECL Sony launched in Saudi Arabia on Sunday its sleek and stylish Xperia tablet Z – the 10-inchtablet that was unveiled at the Mobile World Congress last February. Xperia tablet Z is the most premium, high performance 10.1-inch LTE Android tablet available. Built from quality materials and featuring the same stunning Omni Balance design as its smartphone sibling, Xperia tablet Z is also incredibly slim and lightweight at 6.9mm and 495g. Available in black or white and in LTE and WiFi versions, it is the first tablet to run on Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro asynchronous quad core processor and has the highest levels of water resistance (IP55 & IP57) ever delivered in a tablet, making it immune to accidental spills and splashes. K. Kader Sr, Marketing Manager, E & C Division, MECL/SONY, said: “The Xperia tablet Z is a game-changer in terms of its design and diversity of communication and entertainment offerings. From Sony's innovative One-Touch technology to a slim, durable, waterproof exterior, the Xperia tablet Z is an exemplary Android device that will help us remain a frontrunner in the industry. We know this from the incredible success of its predecessor, the Xperia Z, features of which have been seamlessly captured in the tablet.” With a 10.1-inch HD WUXGA Display, powered by Mobile BRAVIA Engine 2, the Xperia tablet Z delivers enhanced color reproduction for a brilliant TV-like viewing experience. It also draws upon Sony's camera expertise with an 8MP rear camera featuring “Exmor R for mobile” as well as a 2MP HD front-facing camera for capturing the best images in any condition. Sony's S-Force Front Surround 3D guarantees soul-shaking audio performance alongside Sony's Clear Audio+ mode. The innovative use of two in-built speakers with four ‘speaker halls' on the left and right corners delivers amazing sound no matter how it is held. Xperia tablet Z also includes Battery STAMINA mode, Sony's unique battery management technology that can significantly improve standby time. The WiFi variant offers up to 64GB of storage with an optional mirco SD card. Xperia tablet Z includes more connectivity options than any other tablet. It also offers Sony's One-Touch functions that allow users to transfer content seamlessly from the tablet to TV, tablet to speaker or phone to tablet just by tapping them together. One-touch functions are a key component of Sony's device range this year and no other consumer electronics company is bringing as many NFC-enabled products to market. The tablet's Universal IR Remote allows users to control the TV and other Sony devices - as well as products from other manufacturers - directly from the tablet. — SG
