Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet specs rating review: 87.8

Sony has doubled the victory over other Android manufacturers with Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet. This tablet is the best on the market right now as Sony Xperia Z2 is the best smartphone right now. Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet has three premium specs making it the leader in speed, RAM and thickness. These three and all the other great specs of the device, make this tablet the best option you can get. Let’s compare Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet to other Android tablets.

SCREEN

Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet has a 10.1 inches screen with 224 pixels per inch. The technology behind the screen is called Triluminos display and the screen has vivid colors. It is also shatter proof and the device has a scratch-resistant glass. There are no angle problems like in previous Sony devices, the screen is really good. Of course we can find more PPI in devices like Google Nexus 7 (323PPI) and LG G Pad (273PPI), But we like the screen of that device, it’s one of the best found on tablets.

CAMERA

Sony has a 8.1MP main camera and a 2MP front camera. We love big cameras in tablets even if we don’t carry them with us like photo tools. But it’s good to have a good camera that takes HD video as you can use them as tools in the office. So we like the Sony camera on Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet as there is no big changes on the MP. Super Auto and all the photo features found on the Xperia line are also found on Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet like Background defocus, AR effects and Creative effects. We would like to see a bigger camera so as to make the difference from the competitors bigger but we have to wait until the next Sony tablet.

PROCESSOR

Powered by the Snapdragon 800 chipset with a 2.3GHz quad-core Krait 400 processor, Adreno 330 GPU and 3GB of RAM, Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet is the fastest tablet of the market. Z2 Tablet is the only Android tablet with 3GB of RAM. This adds up a lot on the speed. You can understand the speed form the first moment you turn on the device. It sets a new record on the tablet market and takes the first place from LG G Pad which was the fastest device until Z2 Tablet went live.

BATTERY

Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet has a 6000mAh battery. This is not the biggest battery of the market but there are tools to help you make it last longer. In the Power Management section, you can enable Stamina mode, low battery mode, location based Wi-Fi and Queue background data to make the battery bigger. There are devices that have larger batteries like Google Nexus 10 and Lenovo Yoga 10 (9000mAh), Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Tab 2 10” (7000mAh) which are all at 10 inches.

SOFTWARE

Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet has Android 4.4 and it’s the only tablet with Android 4.4 right from the start. Of course other device like Nexus 7 have been updated to that version. We love the latest Android version but we love the premium apps Sony offers. For example you can have OfficePro Suite installed on your device and edit all your docs on your device.

SIZE & DESIGN

The design is almost the same as the previous Sony tablet. But we love this design. Moreover Z2 Tablet is thinner than ever. It is the thinnest device right now in the Android tablet market. It is thin, 6.4mm, thinner than any competitor. The second thinnest device is Sony Xperia Tablet Z with 6.9mm and then Lenovo Yoga 8 with 7.3mm. It is also more water prood. The enhanced water proofing means it can now survive 1.5-meter dives for as long as 30 minutes. So stay on your pool and start reading or taking photos. The device is light but not the lightest. It weights 439g and it is the lighter device at 10 inches. Of course there are lighter devices like Dell Venue 7 (234g) but they are much smaller (7 inches). So the design is something you will love.

VIDEO REVIEW

VERDICT

It’s the fastest tablet of the market with the thinnest body, the latest Android and one of the best screens and cameras. It’s a wonderful device, a premium one that will take the first spot on the ranking putting on the second place LG G Pad. And the difference between them is huge. Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet sets new records in the tablet market with the best processor, biggest RAM, thinnest body and latest Android version right from the start. So there are plenty of reasons to buy it!
