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

The device also boasts a 6000 mAh battery, ensuring sufficient power for long periods of use.

The Xperia Tablet Z is not just about hardware; it also features an 8.1-megapixel rear camera, complemented by a 2.2-megapixel front-facing camera for video calls and selfies. The rear camera is capable of capturing high-quality images and videos, making it a versatile tool for photography enthusiasts.
