The one word that best describes the machine you are looking at is “Sony” and to be more specific “Sony Xperia tablet S”.
What makes a tablet good? Design, graphics, performance? Well, the machine you are looking at has it all. It features the quality and style one would expect from this brand and what is more important it all comes at a competitive price.
The body is black, sleek and smooth, made of both aluminum and polycarbonate. It stands out from the common tablet designs because here Sony has bet on a pretty unusual shape that resembles a “folded-back magazine”. It is a pretty interesting decision we all agreed during the test period. This design feature makes it extremely comfortable as it provides a comfortable typing angle especially when the tablet is in a horizontal position. Having mentioned the word comfortable we should not forget to underline its compact dimensions of 239.8×174.4×8.8 mm and a weight of only 570g.

If you like to cook and experiment in the kitchen, trying new recipes that you found online then you have the perfect cook book because the new Sony Xperia tablet S screen is splash proof.

The display itself is a TFT color LCD capacitive multitouch 9.4’’ screen. The resolution is 1280×800. The sensors are very sensitive and respond immediately. For the protection of your screen Sony have provided an oleophobic coating. The opticontrast technology provides enhanced graphics.Opticontrast is actually Sony’s trade name for a glass cover sheet that is optically bonded to the underlying LCD.
