Sony confirms Xperia Z for Q2 release![]() February 25, 2013 - 21:48 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Sony has confirmed that its new Xperia Z ultra-thin tablet will be released in international markets in the second quarter of 2013, Digital Spy said. Just like the Xperia Z phone, the tablet of the same name is claimed to be waterproof - making it "immune to accidental spills and splashes" - and also dust proof. The tablet has a 10.1-inch HD display (1920x1200) with high brightness and high definition video WUXGA technology, along with Sony's Mobile Bravia Engine 2 for boosting the image content and contrasts. Running Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, the Xperia Z tablet is powered by a 1.5Ghz quad-core processor and has an 8.1 million pixel camera on the rear, equipped with a CMOS sensor Exmor R for the first time in a Sony tablet. Sony says that the camera performs better in low-light conditions, and automatically adjusts to the optimal settings. This all comes in a tablet that weighs 495g, but is just 6.9 millimetres thick - beating the iPad Mini's 7.2mm, believed to be the previous thinnest tablet on the commercial market.
