Product overview
Xperia™ Tablet Z Wi-Fi – The precision engineered HD tablet
How tablets should have been from the beginning.
So brilliantly vivid, you feel like you’re there
Think about the sharpest, most vivid TV picture. Now imagine it on a tablet. Xperia™ Tablet Z delivers the
kind of immersive viewing you’d normally only get with an HDTV. Created by the people behind BRAVIA®
TVs, Xperia™ Tablet Z brings Sony’s expertise to an Android™ tablet. The brilliant 10.1” Reality Display™
is powered by Mobile BRAVIA® Engine 2, which enhances the clarity and richness of every image. This
HD tablet boasts the fullest colour display, too. For bluer blues, greener greens and seriously killer
sunsets. With Xperia™ Tablet Z you meet a world so vivid, everything else pales in comparison.
Minimal yet distinctive – OmniBalance design
The design of Xperia™ Tablet Z is focused on creating balance and symmetry in all directions. We call it
OmniBalance design. OmniBalance™ design balances technology vs. design, letting you get so totally
immersed in the content that the hardware disappears.
Xperia™ Tablet Z has subtly rounded edges and smooth, reflective surfaces on all sides, which are held
together by an innovative skeleton frame. The glass-paneled front has a seamless surface and enhanced
reflective coating. s
Lightning speed performance – Quad core processor
We’ve matched the latest Sony software with the powerful Qualcomm® Snapdragon™ S4 Pro processor.
This advanced 1.5 Ghz quad core processor gives you maximum performance and speed, and incredible
graphics, without draining your battery. Run multiple apps simultaneously, surf the web with no loading
time, and stream videos without a break. The Snapdragon S4 Pro processor is asynchronous, which
means each core is powered up and down independently. So you get the precise amount of power when
you need it, without wasting power when you don’t.
One-touch connectivity from Sony
Sharing with friends and connecting your world has never been easier. Based on NFC (near field
communication), our One-touch functions connect one device to another in a single tap. No wires, cables,
or fiddling with settings necessary.
• One-touch sharing: Share photos, music and more between your tablet and smartphone or NFCenabled laptop.
• One-touch listening: Play the music on your tablet or smartphone through a wireless speaker.

Signature features
The Sony Xperia™ Tablet Z comes with a range of features as standard. Below is a summary of the key
signature features.
Xperia™ Local connectivity
More control over your media
Using Local connectivity, you can exercise more control over how media files get transferred and stored.
Xperia™ Home screen application
The place you call Home
Customise your Home screen with widgets, shortcuts, folders, themes, wallpaper and other items.
Where’s best for you? Email top right? Music player bottom left? You decide. With six extensions to your
Home screen, you’ve got plenty of space to put things where you want. Just remember to flick left or right
to find them.
Xperia™ Socialife™*
Use the Socialife application from Sony to get your favorite news, videos and social networking feeds in
one place. The Socialife home screen gives a clear overview of friends’ Facebook™ and Twitter™ activity,
plus news feeds that you have subscribed to. It colour-codes and sizes articles for easy reading, adding
photos and cropping images of your friends’ faces to illustrate each story.
* This service is not available in all markets.
