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. This sleek design is complemented by a glass front and back, giving it a premium feel that aligns with the high standards of the Sony brand.

The display of the Xperia Tablet Z is equally impressive, boasting a 10.1-inch Full HD TFT screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels. The TRILUMINOS technology enhances color reproduction, while the X-Reality engine offers upscaled images, ensuring that videos and images appear crisp and vibrant.
