Launched in early 2013, it quickly gained attention for its appealing balance of performance and portability.

One of the standout features of the Xperia Tablet Z is its ultra-slim profile. With a thickness of just 6.9 mm, it was one of the thinnest tablets on the market when it was released. Weighing only 495 grams, it is lightweight and easily portable, making it a convenient option for users who are always on the go.
