CNETAnalysis: The wildly impressive looking Sony Xperia Tablet Z has formally been shown off at MWC 2013 , and the 10.1-inch device is taking on the likes of the iPad and Galaxy Tabs on not only specs but also price. Sony’s latest Android tablet was announced in January , and the headline specs haven’t got any less impressive in the past few weeks. The Xperia Tablet Z’s display is a 10.1-inch WUXGA display – that’s 1920 x 1200 – powered by a quad-core Snapdragon S4 Pro processor and a whopping 2GB of RAM. Water way to go Also noteworthy is that this tablet is water resistant, making sure an occasional rain splot doesn’t have you scurrying for a very large bag of rice. Given its claim to be the “most premium” Android tablet around, the Sony Xperia Tablet Z price is perhaps the most surprising bit, with the Wi-Fi only version priced at £399/$499 and the 4G/LTE offering at £499/$599. The tablet is, ahem, slated to appear in the spring in the UK, and, dare we say, there will be a legion of Sony fans champing at the bit until then.
